About Us

At Pro-Claim Canmore Restoration, we exist to restore lives, the planet, and communities.

When disaster strikes, we’re here to help our neighbors get back to where they belong—home. As a locally rooted company, we understand the unique challenges of living in the Bow Valley and are committed to serving our community with care, expertise, and efficiency.

With the support of the Pro-Claim Group, we combine small-town service with industry-leading innovation and sustainability. From reducing waste and emissions to restoring homes with the highest standards of quality, we’re not just rebuilding structures—we’re protecting the place we all call home.

What makes us different? We put our people first—both our employees and the community we serve.

We believe that when our team feels supported, they provide the best service possible. That’s why we invest in professional growth, create a workplace where people love to come to work, and prioritize work-life balance—because we know that in a place as beautiful as Canmore, life outside of work matters too.

If you want to be part of a team that values community, sustainability, and making a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.
