About US

Leekor Engineering Inc. is a privately owned structural engineering firm based in Ottawa, Ontario, specializing in comprehensive structural design and detailing services. Leekor was established on May 30, 1989, by founders Lee Atkinson and Jeannette St-Jacques. Our journey began in a modest office space within the founders' residential apartment building. Through a strategic combination of cold calling, delivering exceptional quality work, and fostering positive word-of-mouth, we steadily grew our client base and reputation.

 

As demand for our services increased, so did our need for additional support. This led us to assemble a dedicated team of professionals who share our commitment to excellence. By 1999, Leekor had expanded significantly and relocated to the dynamic multidisciplinary facility that serves as our headquarters today. This move marked a pivotal moment in our evolution, allowing us to accommodate our growing operations while continuing to provide top-tier engineering & detailing solutions to our valued clients.

 

 

Leekor continues to grow and provide high quality services to long time clients and new ones alike.
