Where we work

Ultra-high-pressure water jetting in Wellington

The Wellington branch sits at 24B Peterkin Street in Taita, Lower Hutt, with its own crew and its own gear rather than a truck sent down from Auckland when something comes up. That is what makes a night shift on the urban motorway network or a weekend possession on rail practical from this end of the island.

Marine and rail carry more weight here than they do further north. Wharf structures, vessel work and coastal steel all want coating and corrosion taken back to bare metal without cutting the parent material, which is a 40,000 psi water job at 4.3 litres a minute rather than a grit blast with a containment bill behind it.

KiwiRail, Interislander, Babcock and Port of Napier are all on the client list.
