Customer Testimonials

The Service department was able to locate and repair an intermittent issue that has plagued me for more than 2 years. They did this and were ready to return my equipment in less than 4 days.

— Ray Federwich, Geophysical Logging Services

Much of our equipment has seen years of heavy field use; who better to send the equipment to for repair than the original manufacturer. Even though much of this equipment is now obsolete, Mount Sopris was able to refurbish our equipment without issue within the requested time frame.

— Paul Burry, Denison Mines Corporation

We have a Mount Sopris product, so I would go to the source for repairs. Everyone I dealt with was courteous and quick to respond.
