Our Services
We offer both Contracting and Design-Build solutions. Our project delivery teams minimize risk and deliver on scope, schedule and budget. We work closely with our clients to ensure success for all parties.
No Mountain High Enough
Industries We Serve
From high altitude mines to the busiest transportation corridors. We work in sub-zero temperatures to the hottest days on record Our team has accomplished 1000’s of jobs in almost every situation imaginable.
Transportation
GRW has completed dozens of public works transportation projects. We install geohazard mitigation systems and stabilize steep slopes and cut benches to keep transportation networks open. GRW contributes predictable production, proactive coordination, and safe, controlled field operations—key factors that support project certainty.
Hydroelectric
Hydro facilities operate critical infrastructure in steep, fractured terrain exposed to multiple geohazards. GRW specializes in technical stabilization work above powerhouses and penstocks. We do difficult work safely—that’s why major utilities across North America choose us time and again for their most challenging projects
Power Delivery
GRW protects infrastructure with geotechnical construction solutions—slope stabilization, rockfall mitigation, and deep foundations engineered for steep or remote utility corridors
Pipelines
Pipelines are vulnerable to rockfall, landslides, and slope movement. GRW stabilizes slopes and installs rockfall and debris-control systems that protect pipelines, access roads, and crews along the right-of-way. Owners and project partners rely on us for best-in-class safety performance, predictable production, tight coordination, and reduced geohazard risk. Proven on TMX, CGL and EMP.
Mining
Mines face ongoing ground-control risk: unstable highwalls, rockfall onto haul roads, portal instability, and infrastructure exposed to slope movement. GRW reduces these risks thru scaling, rock bolts, mesh, drainage, and support systems. Our certified crews work safely around live operations, helping maintain production while protecting workers and critical assets. Wether on rotations or emergency response, mines rely on us for practical, operations-aware solutions.
Commercial & Residential
GRW remediates geotechnical problems that threaten buildings: creeping slopes, distressed retaining walls, bluff faces, and foundations bearing on marginal ground. GRW installs systems to arrest movement and restore an acceptable factor of safety for structures and site improvements. We work in tight, occupied sites with limited access, coordinating closely with engineers, contractors, and owners to deliver buildable solutions that stand the test of time.
Featured Projects
Stabilizing the Abbot Hut
When Canada’s highest permanent structure was at risk of collapsing, we provided slope stabilization to secure this historic, heli-access-only public recreation site.
Remediating a Remote Open Pit Mine in the Arctic
Our team operated in minus 40°C temperatures to stabilize a schist wall at an active open mine site.
Powerhouse Emergency Rockfall Stabilization
After several rockfall incidents endangered powerhouse assets, an innovative installation was required to safely construct a permanent rockfall mitigation system.
Mitigating Rockfall Risk Above a Critical Hydro Facility
GRW successfully navigated a tight timeline, challenging vertical terrain, and wildfire disruptions to restore safe operation to a powerhouse affected by a rockfall event.
Installing a Critical Remote Canyon Debris Barrier
We installed a Trumer debris net to protect the residential and commercial population from catastrophic river debris flow.
Facilitating the Passage of At-Risk Fish Species
A massive landslide obstructed the migratory path of several wild salmon species, putting them at risk of extinction and causing significant economic impacts.
