What is a pre-CVIP structural inspection?

We go over the structural items an inspector will look at, frames, crossmembers, kingpins, coupler plates, hangers, mounts and securement points, and tell you what needs welding before you book the CVIP.

Why not just wait for the CVIP?

Because a structural defect found at the inspection parks the unit that day. Finding it a week earlier means the repair happens on your schedule instead of theirs.

Is the inspection free?

Yes. The structural inspection is free. You only pay if you want the welding done.

Yes. We inspect units in your yard or on the jobsite across Edmonton and the surrounding region.

Do you do the repairs too?

Yes. We weld the structural items on-site, so the inspection and the repair are one visit in most cases.

Pre-CVIP Structural Inspection Edmonton

780-904-8822 Free Structural Inspection

A parked unit costs you money every hour.

The annual CVIP is not negotiable in Alberta. A structural crack means the unit does not get a sticker, and without the sticker it does not run.

Most operators find out on inspection day. The unit is already at the shop, the load is already booked, and now there is a repair in front of the sticker.

A free structural check a week early turns an emergency into a scheduled job.

Free inspection

No charge to look. You only pay for welding.
