Preventive Maintenance That Protects Your Investment

Thompson Tractor’s maintenance programs identify problems before they shut down operations and delay project timelines. Our technicians perform systematic inspections following Cat®-recommended service intervals, replacing filters, fluids, and wear components at optimal times rather than waiting for breakdowns. Detailed service documentation tracks every maintenance action performed, creating records that support warranty claims and verify proper care when you sell or trade equipment.

• 24/7 emergency field service: When breakdowns happen at inconvenient hours, our mobile service trucks respond immediately with expert technicians who bring diagnostic equipment and repair expertise directly to your jobsite.
• Complete rebuild programs: Our certified rebuild services restore worn machines to like-new specifications at costs substantially lower than replacement, extending equipment life for decades.
