About Us

Founded in 1968 The Anchor Group offers over 40 years of construction experience in the design and installation of soil retention and engineered foundation systems.  We have completed more than 4,000 projects. With our extensive equipment and material inventory we are uniquely equipped to construct your future projects.  We are able to provide performance and labour material bonds for projects.  We offer our capacity to meet the challenge of large high profile contracts and our commitment to provide superior service on all projects, independent of size. The Anchor Group is owned and operated by experienced partners and professional engineers who are active in the business and dedicated to providing quality work. 

Safety is a priority at the Anchor Group.  We have a full time experienced, safety officer on staff.  Our supervisors and personnel attend training sessions both in-house and through outside organizations such as CSAO and IAPA.

In order to provide a full range of services the original company of Anchor Shoring has evolved into several divisions and companies which form the Anchor Group;  Anchor Shoring & Caissons Ltd., Banner Piling & Excavating Limited and Crown Drilling Limited.  Depending on the complexity and scope of work your project may require the services of one or all of the three companies of The Anchor Group.  Using the Anchor Group simplifies the coordination required between trades and expedites the project schedule. 

Anchor Shoring & Caissons Ltd.

Anchor Shoring & Caissons Ltd.  specializes in the design and installation of soil retention systems and caisson foundations.  Our projects include a full range of size and complexity.  We will work together with your engineers to develop the optimal solution to your design challenge.  If the services of the other divisions of the Anchor Group are required on your project we will coordinate this to ensure that you are only dealing with a single contractor.

Banner Piling & Excavating Limited

We believe it is important that we are able to offer our clients a full range of shoring and foundation solutions.  Banner Piling specializes in the design and installation of sheet piling and all types of pile foundations.  In addition to owning a wide range of traditional pile driving equipment we have also designed and built pile driving equipment which allows us to drive piles in as little as 9 feet of headroom.   We are able to provide multiple pile driving rigs if required by the project schedule.

Crown Drilling Limited

The majority of shoring systems require tiebacks for bracing.  Prior to founding Crown Drilling it was necessary for Anchor to subcontract the drilling of tiebacks and tiedown anchors to outside firms.  This often created delays to projects as it was difficult to ensure that these subcontractors would mobilize to the site in a timely manner.  This problem was solved by forming Crown Drilling Limited over 30 years ago.  This member of the Anchor Group specializes in drilling rock and soil anchors for bracing of soil retention systems.  We also drill tiedown anchors for permanent structures.  We are leaders in the tieback industry with state of the art equipment which was designed and built by our firm.  We are also able to modify equipment to suit the specific needs of your project.

 

In this web site we provide information on the Anchor Group, our services, equipment and a cross section of completed projects.  It is impossible to cover everything we do.  Just because something is not specifically listed here doesn’t mean we don’t offer the service, own the equipment or travel to work in your area.  Please use the Contact Us page if you require more information or if you would like us to assist you with your project.

The Anchor Group will continue to bring our innovative engineering solutions and proactive site performance to your project as a key member of your construction team.
