Reliable, versatile, hard-working experts.

Although we changed our name in 2017, our team has been at this for a long time. Iron Dog Mechanical Services Inc. is a rebranding of Metro Burner Services Limited, which was started in 1977.

While remaining a locally owned company, the rebranding was necessary to reflect who we are, what we do and where we do it!  From the early beginnings of servicing residential oil burners and boilers, Iron Dog has become a full-service mechanical contractor with deep expertise in gas systems, plumbing and air conditioning – and we no longer only operate in Metro, providing our services to customers throughout the Maritime Provinces. 

WHY IRON DOG?

Proactive Service Model

All Iron Dog Service Technicians have completed Proactive Service Training. This service excellence model leverages the technical knowledge of each Service Technician to fix the immediate issue, determine possible causing factors, and make recommendations to the Building Owner/Property Manager on solutions that will prevent re-occurrence of the problem or system improvements to generate building operational efficiency. Finding suspect pipes before a leak is a common occurrence!
