In
April of 1974 a new radiator repair business, called
Redi-Rad was
opened in Waterloo Ontario. The company only employed 2
people. We manufactured, recored and repaired radiators
at that site. In May of that same year Jim Tallman
joined the staff as the business was already starting to
move forward. We offered a pick up and delivery service,
which up until that time was unheard of in the radiator
industry. As business progressed, gas tank repair and
heater cores were added to our services. In 1976 an
addition was built on the existing building that greatly
increased our repair shop floor space and added 2 more
service bays with hoists.
In February 1978, Jim Tallman purchased the business
from Mike Hribar. Air conditioning service, heavy truck
radiator repair and general auto repair were added to
our list of services.
Today we employee 10 people, we have a 3 bay full
service radiator and air conditioning shop, staffed by 2
licenced mechanics and 4 government certified A/C
technicians. We offer general auto repair, new
radiators, charge air coolers, gas tanks, heaters and a
full line of new A/C parts including new compressors and
condensers.
Our mission from the very start was to always provide
the best service at a fair price and treat our
customers the way we ourselves would expect to be
treated. We have been doing this since 1974 and will
continue to do so into the future. |
