Our diverse experience in this field began in the 1980’s as the international tourist and business boom gave rise to demand for independent high end hotels complete with business conference centers, banquet halls, restaurants and shopping areas. By 2021, Reliance had completed over 750 hotel rooms and associated conference spaces. As the market evolved and baby boomers turned into empty nesters, in addition to an ever-increasing demand for housing, high rise condominium and purpose built rental construction became more common. Our vast experience in this domain ranges from affordable residential units for first-time buyers to condominium developments for seasoned buyers, complete with high-end amenities. In 2009, the Canadian housing market emerged from the recession and by 2021, Reliance had completed or had under construction over 20,000 housing units in eastern Canada.

In order to reach the desired basement levels, Reliance needed to blast 5 meters of rock. Seismographs were installed in various locations in order to monitor the vibrations of the surroundings buildings.
