Civil Engineering
We recognize the need to react quickly and accurately when it comes to maximizing development opportunities and identifying the risks associated with ongoing analyzation and speculation.
The time and costs associated with bringing a project from concept to completion is often the barrier to entry.
Our technology and experience allows us to swiftly analyze and design sites without the need for actual outside survey or engineering data

Clean Energy & Carbon Solutions
At Islander Engineering, we are committed to supporting the transition to a low-carbon future by providing trusted engineering, project management, and subject matter expertise to clean energy and carbon reduction projects.
Our team works with clients across public and private sectors to identify, design, and deliver practical and cost-effective solutions that reduce emissions and increase energy efficiency — from early-stage feasibility assessments through construction and commissioning. With a pragmatic, execution-focused approach, we help project owners de-risk and accelerate deployment of technologies such as renewable energy systems, low-carbon district energy, building electrification, and industrial decarbonization initiatives.
We are especially excited about collaborating with Indigenous communities and advancing partnerships that support energy sovereignty. One of our core focus areas is helping remote Nations transition away from costly and polluting diesel-based electricity generation to more resilient, sustainable clean energy systems.
Drawing on deep technical experience and integrated project delivery capabilities, Islander Engineering supports every phase of the project lifecycle — ensuring clean energy and carbon initiatives are not only technically robust and regulatory-compliant, but also culturally respectful, economically viable, and successfully implemented.
Building Partnerships to Unlock the Blue Economy
Islander Engineering plays a convening role in the emerging blue economy — bringing together the right teams, partners, and resources to move marine-based clean technology and infrastructure projects from concept to reality.
Rather than acting solely as technical service providers, we focus on assembling collaborative project teams, forging strong partnerships between communities, technology developers, and investors, and guiding projects through early-stage development. Our experience across engineering, project management, and grant funding allows us to help clients secure the federal and provincial funding required to de-risk and advance innovative blue economy initiatives — including marine renewable energy, sustainable aquaculture, ocean carbon solutions, and coastal resilience infrastructure.
With a strong appreciation for the importance of coastal ecosystems and Indigenous leadership in ocean stewardship, Islander Engineering is committed to ensuring that blue economy opportunities are developed responsibly, collaboratively, and with long-term benefits for local communities.
Municipal Infrastructure
Our team bring a diverse background of experience and capabilities to the table, including detailed designs by professional engineers, project management and contract administration. We have successfully completed many water, sewer and storm drain infrastructure projects for municipalities, and large developments on Southern Vancouver Island.
Current and past projects include infrastructure studies, replacement of ageing facilities, life cycle analysis, cost estimating and contract/construction management. All key personnel have completed formal contract administration training using the MMCD Platinum Edition.
Municipal Infrastructure Upgrades
Land Development
We guide each project through rezoning, development permits, preliminary layout approvals and design and constructions phases. Our team provides strategic lot layouts which maximize yields while complementing the environmental values of the site and the sustainability qualities of the project.
We have certified Project Management Professionals to coordinate projects through the many complex development channels. Our experience dealing with the local municipalities allows each project to be streamlined so that time and budget are not needlessly expended.
