Shuniah
Residential concrete is what we do: footings and foundation walls, driveways, patios, walkways, garage floors and finished surfaces. A good share of Shuniah work is seasonal property rather than year-round house, and that changes the job. Access is often a camp road, the site is often on a slope down toward water, and the owner is often not standing there while it happens.
Our shop is at 684 City Rd in Thunder Bay and Shuniah starts where the city ends. Two Thunder Bay natives own this company, each with more than eleven years of concrete work behind them, and the business has run under its own name since 2024. Getting to the near end of Shuniah takes about fifteen minutes. Getting to the far end takes closer to an hour.
Shuniah stretches along the shoreline of Thunder Bay and Black Bay and takes in Silver Harbour, Amethyst Harbour, MacKenzie, Pass Lake, Loon, Pearl, Wild Goose, Ancliff, Bowker and Navilus. About a third of the property owners here are seasonal camp owners rather than full-time residents.
From the near-shore lots at Silver Harbour out to Pass Lake, all six services are available. Each links through to the full detail.
FoundationsFootings, walls and slabs for new builds, additions and detached garages. Shoreline and bush lots rarely give you a flat, open work area, so the excavation plan comes first.Plan your foundation »
DrivewaysTear-out, re-grade, gravel base, pour. Camp roads and long shoreline approaches take a beating through freeze and thaw, and a driveway is only as good as what is underneath it.Price my driveway »
PatiosThe reason most people call us in Shuniah. A patio facing the water needs its slope worked out first, because water running the wrong way off a lakeside slab finds the building.Design your patio »
Walkways and StepsSteps down toward the shore and paths between the camp, the garage and the dock. Uneven ground is the norm here and the steps have to be laid out for it.Fix my walkway »
Garage FloorsFlat, hard-troweled floors with drain slope where the building needs it. Detached garages and storage buildings are common on Shuniah properties.Pour a new garage floor »
Stamped and Decorative ConcreteBroom, smooth or exposed aggregate. Exposed aggregate suits a shoreline patio, where a smooth finish gets slick once it is wet.See stamped options »5-star ratings from Google

Shuniah is not one drive. Silver Harbour is a fifteen minute run from our shop and Pass Lake is closer to an hour, and everything between falls somewhere on that line. That matters when you are pricing a job, because a contractor quoting Shuniah as a single number is averaging a fifteen minute trip against a fifty-three minute one. We quote from where your property actually is.
The MacKenzie Moraine left glacial deposits through this area that are rich in aggregate, and the practical effect is that what is under your feet varies more here than it does on a city lot. Sand and gravel in one spot, something else fifty metres on. We check what we are building the base on rather than assuming it matches the last job up the road.
About a third of Shuniah property owners are seasonal. That means jobs where the owner is up on weekends, or not at all, and the pour has to happen anyway. We photograph the work as it goes and stay reachable through it, so you are not driving out to find out what happened.
What a Shuniah project needs is not automatically what a Thunder Bay project needs, and requirements differ across the district. We confirm the specifics with the municipality before the job goes on the calendar. Shoreline properties in particular are worth checking early rather than late.
Fifteen minutes to Silver Harbour, closer to an hour to Pass Lake. We price the trip you actually are rather than a Shuniah average, which is why the number holds when the invoice comes.
Seasonal owners get photographs as the work progresses. If your camp is a weekend property, you should not have to take a day off to find out how the pour went.
Minor repairs on our own work, guaranteed to your satisfaction. Shuniah is close enough to Thunder Bay that honouring that is a short drive rather than a negotiation.
The two of us who own this company are the two who show up. Camp work especially should not be handed to a crew you have never met.
Shuniah sits on the east side of Thunder Bay. Most of the other townships we pour in are on the west and south sides, so if you are on that side of the city, start with one of these.
Dorion is the next township up Highway 11/17 past Shuniah.
