Municipal & Institutional
Municipal and institutional facilities are built to serve communities for decades. From schools and healthcare centers to housing complexes and civic buildings, these projects require roofing and building solutions that balance durability, compliance, and budget responsibility.
At RBS, we’ve partnered with school boards, housing authorities, healthcare providers, and municipalities to deliver projects that stand the test of time. In most cases our clients engage with architects, engineers, and consultants and we understand the importance of the client, consultant, contractor partnership.
Transparency & Accountability – Public-sector projects demand clear communication, detailed reporting, and rigorous compliance with procurement standards. We bring full transparency to scope, schedule, and costs, helping boards and councils make confident decisions.
Durability & Lifecycle Value – Municipal and institutional facilities must withstand decades of use and tight maintenance budgets. We engineer systems with a lifecycle view, ensuring value that extends far beyond the initial project.
Safety & Compliance – From worker safety on active campuses to meeting building codes and fire regulations, we deliver solutions that check every compliance box while maintaining a safe environment for students, residents, and staff.
Phased Planning – We stage work to minimize disruption in occupied buildings — whether that means summer scheduling for schools, night shifts for healthcare, or phased approaches for housing complexes.
Long-Term Planning – Our 3-year capital and maintenance plans give facility managers visibility and predictability, ensuring roofing and building systems remain reliable while budgets stay manageable.
Trusted Expertise – We regularly partner with organizations such as Limestone District School Board, Upper Canada District School Board, Ottawa Community Housing, City of Kingston, KHSC, Lennox & Addington County General Hospital, Defence Construction Canada, County of Frontenac, Carleton University, U of O, Queens, Algonquin College, OPP, CMHC, CDSBEO, CECCE, ALCDSB, City of Ottawa, Parks Canada, BGIS, JLL, NCC, CBRE, Colliers, and more — bringing experience that translates into peace of mind for every client.
At RBS, we treat municipal and institutional projects with the same rigor we apply to industrial facilities: technical accuracy, disciplined execution, and solutions that deliver lasting value for the communities we serve.
