Complete guide to choosing your professional Makita tools

Why choose Makita for your professional projects in Canada?

Makita Canada represents over 100 years of Japanese innovation adapted to North America's extreme conditions. The brand leads the professional market with its 18V LXT platform of 425+ tools, all powered by the same interchangeable batteries.

Exclusive BL Brushless motors deliver 50% more power, 25% more runtime, and double the life of traditional motors. With service centers in every province and a 3-year warranty on all tools, Makita guarantees uninterrupted productivity on the most demanding Canadian jobsites.

What power do Makita Quebec tools offer compared to the competition?

Makita Québec tools consistently surpass industry standards with impressive specifications. Hammer drills develop up to 2,100 rpm with 31,500 impacts/minute and 140 Nm of torque. Grinders reach 8,500 rpm with Active Feedback Sensing Technology (AFT).

Circular saws cut up to 70 mm deep at 5,000 rpm. The Star Protection Computer Controls™ system optimizes communication between tool and battery, preventing overloads and maximizing performance even at -25°C, crucial for Quebec winters.

Exclusive Makita professional technologies that revolutionize the construction site

Makita Professional incorporates patented innovations unique to the market. XPT (Extreme Protection Technology) protects against water and dust with advanced O-ring seals. AWS (Auto-Start Wireless System) automatically connects the vacuum cleaner when using tools.

LXT Lithium-Ion batteries with 4-LED charge indicator maintain their capacity after 1,000 cycles. AVT (Anti-Vibration Technology) reduces vibration by 80%, allowing for extended work without fatigue on Canadian construction sites.

How do Makita tools excel in every Canadian trade?

Makita tools dominate every Canadian professional sector. In construction, pneumatic nailers and rotary hammers speed formwork. In carpentry, miter saws and routers offer pinpoint precision. For landscaping, LXT X2 (36V) mowers and blowers rival gas-powered equipment.

In metalworking, portable grinders and band saws transform steel. Each line is developed with Canadian professionals to ensure optimal performance in our unique conditions.

The X2 dual-battery system allows two 18V batteries to deliver 36V performance on high-demand tools, maximizing flexibility and efficiency.

How can I maintain my Makita tools to extend their lifespan?

Clean ventilation ports weekly using compressed air. Lubricate chucks monthly with light oil. Store batteries at 30–50% charge in a cool environment. Replace carbon brushes as indicated (for non-brushless models). Always use Makita or high-quality compatible accessories. Regular maintenance can double your tools’ lifespan, making the investment well worth it.

What is the warranty on Makita tools in Canada?

Makita provides a 3-year limited warranty on all power tools and a 1-year warranty on batteries and chargers. Online registration within 30 days is recommended but not mandatory. The warranty covers manufacturing defects, offering free repair or replacement. Authorized service centers also perform out-of-warranty repairs at competitive rates using genuine Makita parts.
