Capital Conservation Services
EST. 2018 · OTTAWA
From paper-stage diagnosis through hands-on conservation to final sign-off, our practice covers the full life-cycle of heritage masonry work — across federal, provincial, municipal and private assets.
Whatever the status of your project and however complex, we accompany your efforts at any stage — Pre-Design, Schematic Design, Design Development, Design Package, Tendering, Construction Administration & Resident Site Services, and Post-Construction — or throughout the project as a single resource.
Paper-stage work that holds up in heritage review. We assess what's actually wrong with a building, write the scope and specifications, and develop the documentation your project needs before a stone is touched.
Engaged independently, or as a sub-consultant to architects and engineers leading the prime role.
Skilled conservators on your site, performing the actual physical work. CAPC-certified senior conservators, intermediates and juniors trained in our practice — all working strictly within the Standards & Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada.
Often deployed alongside a general contractor handling broader scope.
For general contractors and project managers running heritage-touching jobs without specialist staff: we sit on your project as the heritage conscience — running mock-ups, doing site visits, signing off compliance, and authoring the reports your client expects.
A common engagement model with PCL, EllisDon, Pomerleau, Atwill-Morin and other major GCs.
