Frequently Asked Questions

Can we work outside of Canada?

Yes, we can! All our technicians hold valid E1 U.S. Visas, allowing them to travel and work throughout the United States. In addition, they carry and maintain a CARNET manifest, enabling them to transport all necessary specialized tools and equipment across the border with ease.

How much notice is required before arriving on site?

We generally require a minimum of three weeks’ notice to schedule an on-site visit. However, we understand that urgent situations can arise. In special cases, we’re open to discussing shorter notice periods to accommodate your needs.
