ABOUT PEDERSEN

BUILT ON VALUES. DRIVEN BY PEOPLE.

For more than 70 years, Pedersen Construction has been building Northern Ontario with hard work, integrity, and a commitment to doing every project the right way.

OUR STORY

A LEGACY OF HARD WORK AND RELIABILITY.

Founded in 1955 by Helmer Pedersen, Pedersen Construction began with residential excavation, concrete work, and basement construction. What started as a family-owned business has grown into one of Northern Ontario’s most trusted construction partners, serving mining operations, municipalities, commercial clients, and communities across the region.

Today, Pedersen Construction remains family-owned and operated, employing between 100 and 150 skilled professionals during peak construction seasons. More than 70 years later, we continue to build on the values that have defined our company from the beginning—hard work, integrity, safety, and lasting relationships.
