We opened our doors in 1992 with a fax machine, big dreams, and one clear mission:
“Delight the Customer”
That mindset is still what drives Summit today :)
We’re a family-owned organization and 100% Canadian, founded on local roots and long-term relationships.
Don Hope has been a driving force behind Summit’s growth and innovation for over 20 years. His leadership and values are woven into the fabric of our company.
Summit is home to nearly 100 valve and instrumentation enthusiasts, with 40% holding technical designations (engineers, technologists, and tradespeople).
Summit is proud to support emerging automation professionals through mentorship, facility tours, and close ties with local technical schools.
Whether it’s a complex spec or a 2am callout, we show up. For us, service isn’t just part of the job, it’s about building relationships, solving problems, and delivering on promises.
Our Edmonton and Port Coquitlam locations operate under a certified ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, ensuring consistent processes and continuous improvement.
We take our work seriously but not ourselves. We pair high standards with a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere where people enjoy what they do and who they do it with.
Giving back is part of the Summit culture. Our team supports local and international charities. We volunteer in the community, participate in fundraising, and donate funds to worthwhile causes.
