Company Profile

From Geotechnical Roots to Multi-Disciplinary Excellence

 

Canada Engineering Services Inc. (CESI) was first established in Toronto in 1988 as an independent consulting engineering company specializing in geotechnical engineering. Our purpose was clear: to provide land developers, property managers, owners, architects, and builders with all requisite engineering services under one trusted roof.

Shortly thereafter, in response to the evolving needs of our clients, the firm expanded into the fields of Environmental Engineering, Hydrogeological Engineering, Structural Engineering, and Building Sciences. This deliberate growth has enabled us to offer a comprehensive range of engineering services — eliminating the need for clients to coordinate between multiple firms.

Today, more than three decades later, CESI remains an independent and trusted consulting practice, deeply rooted in the Greater Toronto Area while serving projects across Ontario.
