ConDrain Company (1983) Limited is a sewer and watermain contractor in North America.
ConDrain was founded in 1954 by brothers originally from Sora, Lazio, Italy, Alfredo De Gasperis, Angelo De Gasperis, and Antonio Degasperis, as a concrete and drain company. ConDrain later expanded into land development and produced other related companies. ConDrain conducts business mainly within the Greater Toronto Area, the Golden Horseshoe, Western Ontario, the Ottawa Region as well as in other provinces and the United States.
Companies in the ConDrain Group construct roads; supply recycled and virgin aggregate materials; produce concrete pipe, precast units and lighting poles; manufacture valves and fittings; install gas lines, power lines, fibre optic cables, and street lighting; build houses and commercial and industrial buildings; and develop large tracts of land for community living. Other related companies have included broadband communication, vineyards, such as Vineland Estates in the Niagara Region, and built golf courses.
Before 1960, Angelo and Alfredo De Gasperis operated their company out of a small bungalow near Highway 401 in Toronto.
During the 1960s, ConDrain ran many projects in the Niagara Region. They installed many water and sewer lines in subdivisions within Thorold, Welland, Niagara Falls and St Catharines.
In 1971, development of the community of Erin Mills commenced in the new City of Mississauga, to the west of Toronto.Cadillac Developments Limited, the developer of the 7,000 acre land assembly, hired ConDrain to service their subdivisions. In 1972, ConDrain expanded into community and neighbourhood development by creating Metrus Developments Inc., and into commercial-industrial real estate by forming Metrus Properties Limited. ConDrain entered the road construction industry in 1981. Another company under ConDrain, Con-Elco Ltd., was founded in the 1980s for the land servicing industry, specializing in the installation of underground power and telephone systems.
