Specialty General Contractor

As a specialty contractor for commercial and industrial projects, our combine team has decades of experience with the following types of projects:

  • Office buildings (corporate offices, coworking spaces)

  • Professional Services (medical, salons & spas)

  • Retail spaces (stores, shopping centers, restaurants & automotive)

  • Healthcare facilities (hospitals, clinics, medical offices)

Design-Build General Contractor

Design-build streamlines project delivery through a single contract between the owner and the design-build team. This simple but fundamental difference saves money and time by transforming the relationship between Interior construction designers/engineers and builders into an alliance that fosters collaboration and teamwork.

Self-Performing Contractor

As a self-performing commercial contractor, we utilize our own skilled workforce including carpenters, masons, spray foam insulation specialists, silicone roof system installers, and protective coating experts—rather than relying on subcontractors whenever possible. This approach allows us to deliver greater value, consistent quality, and unmatched accountability.

Skilled Contractor Services for Commercial & Industrial Projects

When your contractor performs the work, not just manages it, you benefit from superior craftsmanship, tighter schedules, and complete ownership of results.

Carpentry

An experienced carpenter is a true craftsman. Our highly skilled team of carpenters performs rough and finish carpentry for all types of commercial construction projects.

Barrier Protection Services
(Life Safety Systems)

Our barrier protection systems safeguard commercial healthcare environments with comprehensive life safety solutions engineered to contain fire, smoke, sound, water, and contamination. For new and existing structures, we act as your single source for design guidance, technical expertise, installation, assessment, and risk management. We’ve delivered seamless service to some of the Nation’s largest healthcare systems through our skilled, in house professionals delivering smarter protection, reduced risk, and total peace of mind.

Silicone Roof Systems

A silicone roof coating creates a seamless membrane to seal and repair existing roofs and permanently protect against leaks, ponding water, and the damaging effects of severe weather. Our silicone roof system is ideal for use on flat and sloped roofs, including large and small buildings, and most types of existing roof conditions.

Dustless Wet Blasting

Our trained experts can remove coatings, corrosion, and contaminants from hard surfaces. An effective alternative to sand blasting or time-consuming stripping by hand, this process has minimal setup and cleanup - silica is not used there is minimal dust and no PPE is required. A dustless wet blasting process allows for a cleaner finish with no warping (no heat generated), embedded particles or clinging dust.

Masonry (The Brick Guys at Canaan)

Our team of experienced brick, block and stone masons perform repairs, maintenance, tuck-pointing, caulking, and structural modifications for commercial projects of any size.

Spray Foam Insulation

Canaan spray foam technicians apply open cell and closed cell spray foam insulation for wall and roof cavities for commercial and industrial buildings. We retrofit insulation of existing wood framed and per-engineered metal structures. Our services also include the application of spray applied air barriers for exterior walls. There are a number of benefits associated with installation of spray foam insulation including: energy efficiency, comfort, improved air quality, zero mold growth, sound reduction, insect and rodent infiltration resistance, environmentally friendly, and adds strength to the building structure.

Protective Coatings

Our team expertly applies commercial and industrial protective coating services for concrete surfaces in underground structures including manholes, tanks, pipes, wells and containment basins. Applications include water treatment plants, underground utilities, industrial facilities, and more.
