Mechanical contracting that’s united by excellence & eco-friendly by design.
Doing The Details
Details are meant to be sweat over, not skimmed over. We are the doers of mechanical design, fabrication, and installation that serve as the beating heart of Vancouver’s most extensive building projects. From HVAC and refrigeration to gas, plumbing, and controls, you’re guaranteed quality when working with DMS.
End-to-End Mechanical
You don’t grow in this business without learning a thing or two or three thousand. But, if there’s one thing that jumps out over our 25+ years in business, it’s that practical and personable are equally as important. We’re proud to offer end-to-end mechanical construction and service, but we’re even more proud to be known as a building partner you can trust.
Construction
Mechanical construction requires a contractor that’s not afraid of complexity. When it calls for innovative solution-seeking, we lean in. DMS has built its name in mechanical construction, specializing in heating, cooling, power, and plumbing for mixed-use developments.
Service
Mechanical systems are interwoven into the fabric of a building—a function that people rely on. Fortunately, DMS is defined (rather ironically) by our dependable mechanical solutions. From proactive building maintenance services to reactive emergency repair, we’re a name you can trust.
Special Projects
Unique projects call for creative problem-solving. As a new and exciting arm of our business, DMS Special Projects aims at working with builders to find bespoke mechanical system solutions. From heritage retrofits to highly-specialized developments, we’re ready to do the work.
