FAQ

Nanaimo elevator questions

Do you service freight elevators in Nanaimo?

Yes. Freight elevators see heavier, uneven loads and more door wear, so they generally need more frequent attention to doors, gates and levelling.

Why is our hydraulic elevator slow in winter?

Hydraulic oil thickens in the cold. Unheated machine rooms or pits are a common cause; heating or an oil heater usually fixes it.

Can you take over from our current maintenance company?

Yes. We review your contract's notice period and scope, then plan a handover so coverage is continuous.

Can you add an elevator to a house in Nanaimo?

Often yes. Residential elevators and platform lifts can be retrofitted into many homes; they must meet CSA B44 and provincial requirements and usually need a building permit.

Should we repair or modernize our elevator?

If the controller is obsolete, parts are hard to source and callbacks are rising, modernization usually costs less over ten years than continued repairs. A survey makes the comparison clear.

Nanaimo has a regional hospital, a university and a growing number of residential and seniors' buildings.

Property managers in Nanaimo tell us the same things: breakdowns that keep coming back, maintenance contracts that are hard to compare, and uncertainty about when to modernize. We answer those questions with a written plan rather than a sales pitch.

Wet winters can bring water into pits; earthquake preparedness — seismic switches and return-to-service procedures — matters here.
