Our Commitment
To our customers:
OPS is committed to delivering solutions to your water related issues with:
- A solution that fits YOUR Needs. We pride ourselves on finding ways for our customers to reduce the amount of equipment and maintenance to achieve what you want. Our goal is that you have the correct system, not the most elaborate or expensive one.
- A system that is as simple as possible. The more simplicity with which a system is designed and installed means that service and repairs are minimized and the ability of our customers to work on their own water systems is maximized.
- A system that is installed according to relevant building codes and one that reflects a high level of competence and quality.
- Installing a high quality system that may not be “low bid” in the front end, but will save you time and money over the life of the system.
- A promise to stand behind our work. Our clients deserve the right system the first time.
To our environment:
At OPS we believe in that we each have been entrusted to be thoughtful stewards of the environment in which we live. With this key concept in mind there are several areas in which Oakville Pump Service is committed to caring for our environment
- OPS endeavors to stock each service vehicle with the appropriate parts and materials to finish your project without unnecessary travel.
- OPS recycles all old equipment, cardboard and oil.
- OPS rebuilds your old equipment. Many places simply tell you that you need new equipment because the cost to repair exceeds the cost to replace, or because they may not have the expertise to repair your equipment. Whenever possible, we provide you the choice of rebuilding or replacing your equipment.
- OPS designs systems that reduce pumping/energy requirements and utilize as little chemicals as possible reducing the system’s carbon footprint.
To our employees:
- To provide a safe and equitable work environment
- To provide competitive pay and benefits.
- To provide training and educational opportunities to enhance and keep current their knowledge in the areas they perform.
