ABOUT US
At Findlay Group Inc (FGI), our journey began with a passion deeply rooted in our commitment to transforming communities and enriching lives through crafting community-centric spaces with our clients' visions at the forefront. We envisioned more than just buildings; we envisioned vibrant, sustainable spaces that inspire and connect people.
In 2011, FGI was founded in the heart of Canmore, Alberta. It wasn't just a business endeavour but a response to the pressing need for real estate development services that blended expertise with approachability. We understood that creating exceptional spaces required more than just construction; it required an unwavering commitment to design, project management, and community engagement.
FGI's suite of services reflects this commitment. From project inception to completion, we offer comprehensive services, including design, development management, project management, budgeting, and permit processing. We aim to support our clients at every step, whether they're seasoned developers or embarking on their first project.

Sam McConnery
He/Him
AT, Certified Passive House Consultant
Sam began his career working for a local framing company in the Bow Valley. Under the direction of several mentors and veterans of the construction industry, Sam was able to gain valuable hands-on experience and an in-depth understanding of all elements of a building. During this time, he developed an appreciation for smart and sustainable design that inspired him to pursue architectural technologies and later get his Passive House certification.
Constructability and sustainability are at the forefront of Sam’s approach to design and are achieved by combining his skills from the construction site with his knowledge and understanding of building science and passive design methods.
