Maintenance and Repair

Signs aren’t just for identification, they’re also on-premise advertising. Signs that are only partially lit or dirty are not sending the right message to your customers. Electrical problems in signs can also be a fire hazard. We have the equipment and experience to repair any type of sign or lighting.

Like most things, signs perform best with regular maintenance. If lamps are left burnt out for extended periods of time, they put an uneven load on the ballast, causing it to also stop working.

Signs are usually located in high traffic areas and tend to get quite dirty from pollution. If they aren’t cleaned regularly, they develop permanent stains that can be quite unsightly. Protect your investment and reduce your long-term costs, by calling us for an annual cleaning and servicing of your sign.

Surveys

We regularly perform site surveys for other sign companies. If you work for a sign company on the mainland and need a site survey done on Vancouver Island, save yourself the expense and hassle of spending half a day on the ferry and have us do the survey for you.

Installations

In addition to installing our own signs, we install signs for businesses that have their signs fabricated in a central location, but need a local sign company to install them. If your business is moving, we can take your sign down and re-install it at your new location, to co-ordinate with your moving dates.

Permits

We are familiar with the requirements of the local city bylaws on Vancouver Island, and will facilitate the application process to get a city permit for your sign. There is also a requirement to get an Electrical Permit for all electric sign installations in BC through the BC Safety Authority. We are a licensed and bonded electrical contractor and able to fulfill this requirement for your company.

Welding

We have welding leads to the bucket of our truck with a 60’ reach capacity, so are able to perform aerial welding for you, or lift your welder in our bucket to easily and safely reach the most awkward welding situations. It also has an extra large bucket to hold material and tools.  The welder/generator on our truck is also available when on-site welding is required.  In the shop, we specialize in TIG welded aluminum fabrication for signs and other structures.

Parking Lot Lighting

We have a licensed sign and lighting electrician to repair your parking lot lighting and just the right equipment to get the job done. Our smaller truck has 30’ reach, which is adequate for most jobs and doesn’t require the use of outriggers, so it can fit in tight parking lots without disrupting the flow of traffic. Our larger truck has 60’ reach and a two-man bucket.
