Amar Surveys Ltd.

40 years in business, Still going strong!

This year Amar Surveys Ltd. is celebrating 40 years of being in business. There have been many changes, challenges, and victories over the years.

In 1982 we started the business with a very small staff in a quaint office. 2 years later we had outgrown our first office and moved to SW Calgary while continuing to offer Survey Services.

By 1998, only 6 years after opening, we moved one last time to our current location on 16 Avenue, and our team continued to grow.

Making Changes

In 2015 we decided it was time to make changes and reduce our environmental impact.

• Sold the office vehicle
• Use a car-sharing service for local errands
• Staff can work from home
• Went paperless

Throughout the years we have experienced ups and downs, changes to the industry, watched the city grow bigger each year and have survived the pandemic. We are so proud of our first 40 years of providing quality Legal Land Surveying Services to all our clients and our staff who have got us to this momentous occasion.
