Work spans government and institutional site development, transit civil, servicing, and concrete.

Most of it sits around the downtown government core, the Kanata technology park, the industrial and business parks, and the LRT corridors. Harrowgate Group regularly builds underground utilities for Ottawa clients like the federal government, tech firms, hospitals, and the City of Ottawa, each project carrying its own site and requirements.
