Plant and processing facility welding — Vancouver Island
About Our Vancouver Island Service
Vancouver Island's economy runs on forestry, marine and naval operations, fish processing, and mining — all industries with heavy welding demands and limited access to certified mainland contractors willing to make the ferry crossing with a full mobile rig. Raider Industrial Services serves Vancouver Island operations across Nanaimo, Port Alberni, Campbell River, and the Victoria/Esquimalt area, crossing BC Ferries with a fully equipped mobile welding truck for projects that require certified industrial expertise the Island can't always source locally.
From shipyard and marine welding at Esquimalt and Nanaimo harbours, to sawmill and paper mill structural repairs at Port Alberni, to fish plant fabrication and equipment repair at Campbell River, we bring CWB certified welding across the water. Our mobile rig is fully self-sufficient — generator, gas supply, all welding consumables — so we operate at your Island facility without depending on local power or supplies.
Vancouver Island's shipyard and naval facilities at Esquimalt require certified structural and marine welding that meets DND and Transport Canada standards for military and commercial vessel work. Port Alberni's forestry and paper mill operations generate high-wear structural welding demand for sawmill components and processing equipment. Campbell River fish processing and aquaculture operations need sanitary stainless welding for processing equipment and structural work at active seafood plants.

On-Site Service
Once on Vancouver Island, a fully equipped and self-sufficient mobile welding truck is essential — you can't ferry a broken piece of equipment back to the mainland and wait a week. Whether it's Port Alberni, Campbell River, or the Nanaimo industrial park, our truck arrives with everything needed to complete the job on-site: its own generator power, full gas supply, welding consumables, and grinding equipment. No dependency on your facility's power supply, no partial setups that require a second trip.
