The Peterborough market for rock excavation

What drives rock excavation in Peterborough (Peterborough County) is manufacturing, institutional and university, healthcare, and commercial development. Peterborough's manufacturing, university, and healthcare base drives a diverse industrial, institutional, and commercial construction market. Work spans industrial and institutional site development, servicing, and concrete.

The work concentrates around the industrial parks, the university and college district, and the Otonabee corridor. Clients such as manufacturers, the university, hospitals, and the City of Peterborough drive much of the Peterborough work, and no two projects carry the same scope or ground.
