Site Services & Excavation Construction Projects — Toronto

Excavation and site services contracts are the first awarded on any project after the building permit is issued — earthmoving and underground work begins immediately. Site services contractors who are pre-qualified with the GC before the permit is issued are best positioned for contract award. Cerosk tracks all construction project types across the Golden Horseshoe from the development application stage, giving site services contractors the maximum lead time to qualify with GCs and forecast equipment and labour requirements for the upcoming construction season.

Large residential towers, commercial developments, and industrial projects in Toronto require substantial excavation and site services work. Mixed-use towers with underground parking represent the largest excavation packages. Track the full pipeline to forecast your upcoming workload and equipment requirements.

Cerosk tracks development applications from the moment they are filed with the municipality — giving you the earliest possible signal across residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional project types in Toronto.

In Toronto, site services contracts on major projects are typically awarded 2 to 4 months before the scheduled construction start. Track development applications now to identify upcoming excavation opportunities 12 to 18 months in advance.
