Services

What We Do

The core engineering services buildings need — whether you're building new or renewing what you already have.

Systems Design

Building systems designed for the project in front of us — new construction and fit-outs, from concept through permit, coordinated with the full design team.

Retrofit & Renewal

Upgrading and renewing systems in existing buildings — where phasing, occupancy, and real site conditions matter as much as the design itself.

Energy & Performance

Energy analysis and performance-focused design to inform system selection, support code compliance, and improve how buildings run over their whole life.

Construction Documentation & Support

Permit drawings, specifications, and tender packages — plus site reviews, RFI response, and commissioning coordination through to handover.

Delivery

How We Deliver

Three ways of working, matched to how your project is structured.

Design-Build

Engineering integrated with construction from day one — decisions made once, with the schedule and budget in view the whole way through.

Design-Assist

Experienced engineering input embedded in your design and construction team — where the project needs it, when the project needs it.

Project Management

Coordinating scope, consultants, and phases so nothing falls through the cracks — and your project stays on track.

Tenant fit-outs, base building upgrades, and system replacements in occupied office environments.

Retail & Hospitality

High-turnover environments requiring fast turnaround, phased delivery, and permit-ready documentation.

Healthcare

Clinics and care environments where building systems have to perform — reliably, and without disrupting operations.

Building Retrofit & Renewal

Owners of aging buildings facing end-of-life equipment, rising energy costs, and renewal work that has to happen while the building stays open.

About Canova

A Firm Built on a Simple Premise

Canova Consultants Ltd. is a consulting engineering firm built on a straightforward premise: clients deserve senior consulting engineering tailored to their project — not recycled big-firm work.

In practice, that means the scope, the systems, and the level of documentation are set by what each building actually needs — whether that's a single-tenant fit-out or a multi-phase renewal program.
