About the Company

Blackline Civil

Builds roads and underground utility networks

Blackline Civil builds roads and underground utility networks for developers, municipalities and other construction contractors in Western Canada. Its civil work ranges from individual basement excavations to full residential subdivisions and heavy industrial site development. Customers contract with the company for land preparation, water and sewer installation, and the road surfaces needed to bring a site into use. It performs most construction scopes with in-house crews, so a client can coordinate the work through one contractor rather than arrange separate handoffs between trades. Blackline Civil is headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, and operates across Alberta and British Columbia.
