A Day in the Life of a Mechanic at Bercon Rentals
If you think being a mechanic at Bercon Rentals is just about wrenches, grease and oil-stained overalls, think again.
At Bercon Rentals, being a mechanic (also called a Shop Service Technician) is about delivering quality equipment that meets clients needs to keep Ontario’s construction industry moving — literally!
Every lift, telehandler, and aerial platform relies on our mechanics’ expertise and their endless problem-solving, leadership and process-management skills.
Let’s dive deep into a day in the life of a Bercon Rentals mechanic:
In the Shop: Coffee, Tools and Machines
The day starts when you walk into either of our shops (in Hamilton and Etobicoke) with the hum of machines and the gleam of our highly specialized equipment: SkyJack lifts, Genie articulating boom lifts, SkyTrak telehandlers and many more. Each piece is organized and waiting for inspection, maintenance or repair.
Bercon mechanics start their day by checking in, attending safety talks, and diving into their work. Sometimes it’s going through a checklist and ensuring that recently returned equipment is in proper order. Other times, it is fixing a hydraulic leak on a boom lift. And still other times, it’s a more complex fix that requires highly technical skills and knowledge.
These experts focus on getting quality equipment out the door to meet client needs, when needed.
On the Road: Independence and Impact
Our road mechanics focus their time and effort in assisting clients that require on site support. These experts work independently to diagnose and problem solve, but are backed by a greater team focused on meeting clients’ needs.
Whether in the shop or on the road, Bercon’s mechanics are highly skilled, experienced and client focused like no other.
