We have performed thousands of projects from small scale Phase I Environmental Site Assessments to large scale landfill design, hydro-geological studies, and groundwater management plans. We have a number of senior, experienced staff who consult in a variety of disciplines and offer our clients expert knowledge in both the technical aspects of a project and the environmental regulations applicable.

We strive to offer our clients personal service and expert knowledge, believing that taking the time to listen to our clients and understand what they need achieves the best solution in the end. Our clients include banks, lawyers, realtors, federal and provincial government bodies, municipalities, private businesses, non-profit organizations, individual property owners, and many more.

Our Story

 

Dr. George Duncan, Ph.D., a consulting chemist, and Mr. H. Robert Jones, P. Eng., a consulting engineer, joined together to found A&A Environmental Consultants Inc. in 1993. The combination of strong chemistry knowledge and civil engineering skills seemed a valuable combination to meet the needs of this growing market.

With the newly formed company, Dr. Duncan and Mr. Jones reached out to meet the needs of their local market in Northern Ontario, serving the natural resource industries (mining and forestry), local municipalities, banks, realtors, etc., with landfill studies, ground and surface water studies, air quality studies and environmental site investigations and cleanups. During these initial years, working in the various smaller northern communities, A&A learned the value of client relationships, and in particular the value of personal attention to the client’s needs in each job. Taking the time to understand a client’s needs and demystifying the complex environmental legislation for the client became central to A&A’s success as customers not only got a better solution, but they understood why it was necessary. This increased client satisfaction and made justifying the cost of the solution easier for them. These lessons have not been forgotten in the years since and our approach to each job remains the same — understand the problem and explain the solution.

A&A’s growth continued and soon an office opened in North Bay, Ontario. In recent years more offices have opened in Southern Ontario, and in 2007, the company moved its headquarters to Woodstock, Ontario reflecting management’s desire to grow the company into the Southern Ontario marketplace. Woodstock is a rapidly developing industrial city and did not have a recognized environmental consulting service local to the city. As well, its still-prominent rural roots reflected A&A’s own heritage, and so it seemed a good fit.

Today, the company has offices in Woodstock, Toronto, North Bay and Kirkland Lake and continues to grow its customer base and the disciplines it can offer.
