FAQ
Yes — elevating devices are subject to periodic inspection and testing requirements under the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) as adopted in Nova Scotia, administered by the Province of Nova Scotia. We schedule and document required tests.
Usually several weeks per car, depending on scope. We phase multi-car buildings so at least one elevator keeps running.
Yes — a capital plan lists each car, its condition and the recommended timing and cost range of work.
When parts for the controller are hard to source, callbacks are rising, or inspection orders keep recurring. A condition survey shows whether you're there yet.
Cost depends on the number of cars and stops, whether the machine is replaced, door equipment and finishes. A condition survey produces an itemized scope and cost range; phasing spreads the spend.
Halifax
Owners across the Halifax area tell us the same story: the elevators still run, but parts take weeks and every breakdown costs tenants a day. Modernizing before the controller fails completely is cheaper and far less disruptive.
We also review existing maintenance contracts so the new equipment is looked after properly once it is installed.
Cold winters, road salt and grit wear door sills and tracks, and hydraulic cars slow down in unheated spaces.
