Should you rebuild, repair, or replace your heavy equipment?

New equipment is great, but can be very costly. Used equipment can save you money, but maintenance records and remaining lifespan are often unknown. That is why we regularly recommend having your machinery rebuilt.

The mechanics at Carter are able to rebuild your machine so it runs like new, but for a much lower cost. By closely examining each part of your equipment, our maintenance staff can properly upgrade software and engineering to make it run more efficiently. This process will extend the lifespan of your equipment and in most cases, will have it running better than the original machine that was bought.

Choosing the right option for you

Here are some questions to ask yourself when choosing to rebuild, repair or replace your machine.

1. Is your current machine right for the job?
2. Can technology be upgraded or is the current technology sufficient for your situation?
3. What is the expected lifespan of your equipment?
4. Is the investment more or less than the potential cost savings?
