About Miriton

Engineering Ontario’s buildings since 1997

A senior, multidisciplinary team with the technical depth of a large consultancy and the responsiveness of a firm where you know your engineer by name.

Our story

From complex public buildings to Ontario’s next generation of housing

Miriton was founded in Ottawa in 1997 to provide complete mechanical and electrical engineering services for buildings. For nearly three decades we have delivered projects where the stakes were high: occupied federal buildings, a national research laboratory, data centres, college campuses and heritage landmarks.

We have also designed residential buildings, industrial facilities, offices and commercial projects for private developers and contractors across Eastern Ontario. Today we are bringing that same rigour to Ontario’s builders and developers, from our Ottawa head office and our GTA office in Durham Region.

Environmental services, including Phase I ESAs and indoor air quality, are provided by our sister company, InAir Environmental.

Sister company

Miriton and InAir Environmental: one coordinated team

InAir Environmental shares its Ottawa office with Miriton. Together we cover the engineering and environmental sides of a project, so developers, owners and lenders deal with one coordinated team instead of juggling separate consultants.

That means Phase I ESAs alongside building condition assessments, indoor air investigations alongside ventilation design, and designated substance surveys alongside renovation engineering, scheduled together and reported consistently.

  • Record of Site Condition (RSC)
  • Excess soil management
  • Groundwater & dewatering
  • Designated substance & hazardous materials surveys
  • Abatement specifications & monitoring

Field experience runs through our team, from Master Electrician to BCIN. Our drawings are made to be built.

Long relationships

Many of our clients come back project after project. We earn that by being responsive long after the drawings are issued.
