Could a routine check save your production line or stop a cold morning from turning costly? We ask this because unexpected shutdowns often cost more than planned maintenance.
We are Lord Mechanical LTD, your local experts serving North Vancouver and West Vancouver. We combine technical knowledge with clear guidance so you can make confident decisions for your home or business.
Our approach is practical and data-backed. We assess units, clean and repair plate, shell-and-tube, hairpin, and fin-fan systems, then advise on intervals that prevent surprise outages.
We focus on quality at every step — from OEM-grade gaskets to documented inspections — so you can trust performance after the work is done. Need immediate help? Call 604-670-3737 and we’ll triage by phone, recommend the fastest path to stabilise your unit, and schedule prompt attendance.

Comprehensive heat exchanger services
Our team delivers a clear menu of repair and upkeep options that match local schedules and equipment needs. We help you decide whether a targeted clean, a partial rebuild, or full fabrication is the right path.
Heat exchanger repair: plate, shell & tube, hairpin, and fin-fan
We repair plate and shell-and-tube units and support hairpin and fin-fan repair work. Repairs restore transfer efficiency and stabilise process control.
Heat exchanger maintenance and cleaning to minimize downtime
Planned maintenance plans fit your operating calendar to reduce unplanned stoppages. Professional cleaning—from chemical plate baths to mechanical bundle work—removes fouling that chokes flow and cuts performance.
Inspection and performance audits for reliable operation
We run audits to spot bottlenecks, recommend corrective steps, and track improvements over time. Reports include measurable findings so you can compare before and after.
Refurbishment and component replacement
We replace gaskets, bolts, and connection linings and offer refurbishment options that extend equipment life. Certificates of Compliance and material traceability are provided when applicable.
Fabrication and bundle manufacturing support
For complex projects we coordinate bundle fabrication to OEM tolerances and perform QC to ASME Sec. VIII Div. 1 & 2. This keeps design duty intact and speeds return to service.
- Options: cleaning, regasketing, or full refurbishment with cost-benefit guidance.
- Documentation: service reports, Mill Certifications, and compliance paperwork.
- Fast booking: Call 604-670-3737 to schedule an inspection or repair window.
Maintenance and repair expertise that reduces downtime
Quick, methodical maintenance reduces unplanned stops and extends equipment life. We explain technical steps in plain terms and tell you when to act to avoid bigger issues.
Plate cleaning process
Our plate cleaning follows a proven sequence: remove gaskets, descale and soak plates in a controlled acid bath, then rinse. We use UV inspection to find pinholes or cracks before installing new gaskets.
Regasketing and materials
We fit OEM-grade gasket materials and use correct bonding methods. Gaskets are heat set to ensure adhesion and reliable sealing before we reassemble the plate pack to drawing specs.
Onsite support and signals to act
When product temperatures drift or pressure varies, call us. Those are classic signs of fouling or gasket failure that can cascade into larger problems.
| Task | What we do | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Plate cleaning | Degasketing, acid soak, rinse, UV inspection | Restores flow and transfer |
| Regasketing | OEM gaskets, heat set, alignment check | Reduces leaks and rework |
| Emergency turnarounds | Onsite crews, spare pack swaps | Minimizes downtime |
Inspection steps are documented so you can see whether cleaning, repair, or replacement is right. For immediate support, call 604-670-3737 — we prioritise urgent jobs to protect your operation.
Specialised technologies and quality assurance you can count on
Advanced machining and joining methods give you repeatable results and lower risk on complex repairs. We select equipment and processes to match metallurgy and duty so you get predictable outcomes.
Precision CNC drilling, orbital welding, and controlled tube expansion
We use precision CNC drilling and orbital welding to deliver consistent tube-to-tubesheet joints. This reduces leak risk during thermal cycling.
High-pressure hydraulic and Matex variable-speed tube expansion seat tubes without excessive work hardening. That extends life and safeguards heat transfer.
Run-pull tooling and bundle saw cutting for faster re-tubes
Run-pull technology and tube bundle saw cutting speed re-tubes on shell units. Faster turnarounds mean shorter outages and lower process risk.
QC inspections to ASME Sec. VIII Div. 1 & 2 with traceable documentation
All fabricated components get formal inspection with Certificates of Compliance. Reports show material heat numbers, thickness checks, and measured tolerances.
We show you exactly how advanced methods reduce risk and improve outcomes, so you can approve work with confidence.
| Technology | What it fixes | Standard / Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Precision CNC drilling | Accurate tube alignment | Reduced leaks, consistent tolerances |
| Orbital welding | Secure tube-to-plate joints | Repeatable quality under cycling |
| Hydraulic & variable-speed expansion | Firm tube seating, less work hardening | Longer life, better heat transfer |
| Run-pull & saw cutting | Faster re-tubes | Shorter outages, documented inspection |
Call 604-670-3737 for a technical consult and to discuss fabrication options, inspection needs, or bespoke equipment planning. We prioritise quality and clear reports so you can approve repairs with confidence.

Equipment, brands, and industries we service
We identify your unit quickly so parts can be confirmed before any work is scheduled. This prevents ordering errors and shortens lead times for cleaning, maintenance, or fabrication.
Supported brands: Alfa Laval, GEA, Funke, Sondex, Tranter, SWEP and many others. We support common plate patterns and frame types so we can work on your installed base without long learning curves.
Industries we serve include HVAC, food & beverage, power generation, chemical, pulp & paper, refrigeration, metals, and mining. Each sector has different duty cycles and cleaning requirements; we match parts and chemistry to those needs.
- We confirm model IDs, plate counts, and elastomer specs up front to avoid delays.
- Inventory access covers gasket materials and frame repairs—bolts, connection linings, and mechanical refurbishment.
- Where fabrication or bundle assistance is needed, we coordinate to OEM tolerances for reliable returns to service.
We advise clients on cost-effective choices: parts-plus-cleaning, full regasketing, or fabrication based on condition and operating targets.
