Environmental, Petroleum and Contracting Services
32 years ago Sutherland Excavating Ltd. was formed with only four employees. Today, President, Blake Sutherland and Vice President Stacey Sutherland work together along with 17 employees to provide services such as Petroleum Tank Installation, Oil Spill Response, Contaminated Site Clean Up, and Heavy Equipment Services. We also have a New Industrial VAC Truck with hot and cold water and steam as well as vacuum.
As Terminal Operator for the Port of Belledune Oil Handling Facility, Sutherland Excavating Ltd. receive, store and export oil via ships for contract customers.
Key to the company’s success has been investing in safety training. We are certified by the NBCSA for the past 14 years and have worked hard to maintain it. “You have to be prepared and equipped to react when your services are needed” says Blake. “That’s why all our employees take annual training and we keep our equipment up to date”.
We serve New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and PEI.
