Hestia Construction is a Calgary-based developer and builder of ‘social infrastructure’ –seniors’ care facilities and multi-family residential that support social wellbeing and community development, such as long term care seniors’ homes and rental housing. Since forming more than 15 years ago, their company has steadily grown and evolved into a leader in the sector. Along the way, they have created a number of innovative, efficient, and welcoming spaces, and have built a team of loyal staff, partners, and subtrades defined by their integrity and the quality of their workmanship. Dr. Hasmukh Patel and Dr. Kabir Jivraj started Hestia Construction in 2008, initially with the goal of constructing seniors care facilities for their parent company, AgeCare. AgeCare strives to operate care facilities that enable an aging-inplace model, so Hestia was able to quickly earn experience building projects that span the full breadth of the seniors housing spectrum. This includes everything from independent living to long term care. Over the course of 15 years, Hestia has become an industry leader in the seniors housing space. In recent years, Hestia has branched out and started building other social infrastructure projects, such as multi-family rental developments. These days, they build primarily in Alberta, with occasional ventures into neighbouring provinces. According to Dr. Kunal Patel, Vice President, Development & Pre-Construction, all their developments are designed to be very “residentfocused” and “the opposite of an institutional nursing home.” “We build great looking buildings that are efficient, practical and functional,” Kunal says. “They’re very homely, welcoming, and inviting for our residents, APRIL 2025
