“While Mr. Fader is not currently authorized to perform regulated gas or electrical work in BC and does not hold a licence to do regulated work in either of these areas, he has conducted installations and repairs without a permit,” the notice said.

“Significant hazards have resulted from some of Mr. Fader’s work and those risks may have posed serious and sometimes severe safety risks to the public.”

Anyone with any information regarding work carried out by Fader or Fader Industries is asked to contact Technical Safety B.C. website or calling 1-866-566-7233.

On Saturday, March 12, Langley Advance Times reached out to Fader Industries, asking if the business had any comment to make about the advisory.

“Yes we have and not true,” was the emailed response.

A Fader Facebook page said the company serves Langley, Victoria and Penticton.
