Meet the Team
Our Red Seal mechanics are dedicated to delivering quality service you can trust.

Chris Baier
Service Manager
Red Seal Journeyman Refrigeration Mechanic and Gasfitter with 20 years of experience, specializing in Commercial Refrigeration Equipment. The combination of electrical, refrigeration, and mechanical systems made the trade both challenging and rewarding. What he enjoys most are the relationships built along the way — long-term clients, general contractors, suppliers, and the technicians on the team. Earning a customer's trust through consistent service, clear communication, and dependable follow-through creates partnerships that extend well beyond a single job. Outside of work, Chris enjoys spending time with his wife and two sons, and competes at a high level in curling — a former BC Junior and 2× BC Mixed Champion with hopes of representing BC at the Canadian Men's Championships.
