Edmonton's Independent NDT Company
Since 1982
CGSB, CWB & AWS certified inspection, testing and metallurgical lab services for
Alberta's energy and infrastructure projects.
Independent NDT Company in Edmonton, Alberta
CIC Inspection & Consulting Ltd. is an independent non-destructive testing company headquartered in Edmonton, providing NDT, inspection and metallurgical lab services across Alberta and Western Canada since 1982. Our CGSB, CWB and AWS certified technicians test welds, materials, equipment and structures without damaging them — so you can prove quality, meet code, and keep your project moving. CIC delivers every major test method from one provider, which means one point of contact, one report format, and no scope gaps between vendors.
Why Engineers and QC Managers Choose CIC
Because we're independent. CIC doesn't fabricate, weld, or repair — we verify. When our technicians sign a report, there's no conflict of interest behind the signature, which is exactly what your client, your engineer of record, and your regulator want to see.
That independence is backed by more than 40 years of continuous operation in Alberta's energy and infrastructure market, seasoned NDE inspectors and engineering technicians, and our own laboratories equipped for both routine testing and complex failure investigations.

NDT SERVICES
CIC Inspection & Consulting provides the full range of non-destructive testing services from one independent provider: conventional methods for code compliance, advanced ultrasonics for imaging and sizing, and materials verification for alloy and property confirmation. Start with the method your spec names — or tell us the defect you're worried about and we'll match the method to it.
METALLURGICAL LAB TESTING
CIC provides third-party welding inspection by CWB certified inspectors for structural steel, pressure work and fabrication across Alberta. Because we're an independent NDT company — not a fab shop with an inspection sideline — our sign-off carries no conflict of interest, and because we run every NDT method in-house, visual inspection and MPI, LPI, UT or RT happen in one visit instead of three vendors' worth of scheduling.
INSPECTION SERVICES
Testing methods answer 'what does the data say.' Inspection services answer the question your regulator, engineer and insurer actually ask: 'is this asset compliant and fit for service?' CIC delivers both from one independent company — the certified judgment layer on this page, powered by the NDT methods on our services page. Start with the obligation or asset in front of you.
WELDING & WELD QUALIFICATION
CIC operates one of the largest independent metallurgical testing labs in Western Canada — the physical backbone behind our failure investigations, weld procedure qualifications and welder testing. Independent means the lab answers to the evidence, not to a fabricator's schedule or a vendor's warranty position; Edmonton-based means your samples, specimens and deadlines don't ride a courier east.
