We Care About Quality

About Us

Our Mission

Belfast Mechanical Services Inc., owned and operated by David Cowan, opened its doors in Trenton, Ont. in April of 2016 as a full-service repair shop for Hastings Quinte Paramedic Services.

 

A successful first year led David to expand his operations and, in June 2017, Belfast Mechanical opened its doors to additional fleet maintenance and the public.

​

“Belfast Mechanical provides a really caring atmosphere for our customers,” David said. “We are looking forward to serving vehicle owners in the Quinte area."
