Forestry Industry
Logging Equipment Fabrication &
Repair on Vancouver Island
Vancouver Island's forestry industry is the backbone of communities from Campbell River to Port Hardy. T & C Fabrication provides the heavy-duty welding, custom fabrication, and emergency repair services that logging operations depend on to keep equipment running in some of BC's most demanding terrain. From the Sayward Forest to the Nimpkish Valley, we build and repair the metal components that forestry needs.
Ted operates a fully equipped mobile welding rig that reaches remote logging sites across Vancouver Island. When a yarder boom cracks at 3 PM on a Friday, you need a fabricator who can be on-site with the right equipment -- not a shop that tells you to bring it in next week. T & C Fabrication understands that every hour of downtime costs your operation real money.
Based on Quadra Island in the heart of Vancouver Island's forestry region, T & C Fabrication has built a reputation for quality logging equipment repair and fabrication work that holds up to the punishment that forestry puts on metal. We use heavy gauge steel, proper joint prep, and welding techniques designed for high-stress applications.
