Why mobile repairs make sense in the Pilbara
Moving a broken machine is slow and expensive. You need a float, a driver, loading and unloading, and the machine still isn’t fixed when it reaches the workshop. Distances in the West Pilbara make that worse. A mobile mechanic skips all of it. We drive to the machine, diagnose it where it stopped, and repair it on the spot wherever we can.
For most faults, from hydraulic hoses and leaks to electrical faults, sensors, filters, fuel problems and many engine faults, on-site repair is faster and cheaper than moving the machine. If a job really does need a workshop, such as a major engine rebuild, we’ll tell you straight and help you plan it.

How a breakdown call-out works
- You call 0407 497 068. Tell us the machine, the fault and where it is.
- We plan the job. Fault codes and photos help us bring the right parts and gear the first time.
- We diagnose on site. We find the cause and tell you what it’ll take before we go further.
- We repair it. Most repairs are done there and then. If parts need ordering, we tell you when we’ll be back.
- We test it. The machine runs and works before we leave.
What to have ready when you call
- The machine: make, model and rough size (for example a 20 tonne excavator or a wheel loader).
- Hour meter reading, if you can see it.
- What happened: what it was doing when it failed, any noises, smoke, leaks or warning lights.
- Any fault codes on the screen. A photo of the display on your phone is perfect.
- Where it is: the address or site, and how to get to the machine.
- Site rules: any induction, PPE, permits or escort needed before we can start work.
Safety on site
We work to your site’s rules. Let us know about inductions, permits, PPE or escort needs when you book so there’s no waiting at the gate. Before we arrive, make the machine safe, stop it if it’s leaking oil or overheating, and keep people clear.
