Looby is a leader in the heavy civil sector. We are the builder of choice for culverts, bridges and dams across Ontario and we’ve been a stable partner in the creation of Canadian infrastructure for over one hundred years. From new construction to rehabilitation works, we are trusted to complete projects on time and on budget and have built relationships with local trades and consultants that span several decades. Though we are proud of our history and are experts in traditional construction, our strongest commitments lie with health, safety and innovation on each of our projects.

We are Looby - the faces and minds that clients can always depend on.
