The same year, the construction of a new building on montée Robillard in St-Benoît (Mirabel) allowed us to merge the activities of
Puits Deux-Montagnes (driller mechanical maintenance, preparation of pumping equipment, parts depot, etc.).

The building was expanded and we purchased a new Puits Deux-Montagnes service truck to meet the increasing demand for installations and water pump repairs.

1989

Puits Deux-Montagnes purchased its first new driller, an Ingersoll-Rand T3-W.
