Heavy duty mechanic
Mobile Heavy Duty Mechanic in Quesnel
Heavy duty work is its own trade: air systems, big driveline components, high-pressure hydraulics and the electrical architecture on modern commercial equipment. This is on-site heavy duty repair for the trucks and machines that keep the North Cariboo working.
After-hours breakdown calls taken.

Diagnose first, then decide
On heavy equipment, the expensive mistake is usually replacing a part before confirming the fault. An air leak that reads like a brake problem, a derate that's actually a sensor, a hydraulic issue that turns out to be a relief setting — those all look the same from the seat. We test before we replace, and we tell you what the readings actually show.
Some heavy duty work belongs in a shop and we'll say so plainly: internal engine failures, full transmission or differential rebuilds, frame and structural repair, and anything requiring a press, hoist or manufacturer-only tooling. Knowing that early is worth more than an optimistic attempt on a cold gravel pad.
