Projects

Turnkey projects

For turnkey projects we take responsibility from the first site measure to handover: fabrication, transport, erection, installation and close-out.

  • Scoping and site measure
  • Fabrication and installation
  • Coordination on site
  • Handover
Modular & accommodation

Modular units, site offices & container conversions

We fabricate and erect prefabricated structures for sites and homes. Residential units and log cabins are self-contained, with a private bathroom (toilet, basin, shower and geyser), and transport and erection are included. Ablution blocks come fully equipped. Site offices, boardrooms and clinic units are built in our workshop and installed on site, and the modular system grows with your business. We also convert and modify containers for industrial and site use.

  • Residential units and log cabins
  • Ablution blocks (baths, tiled showers, gas or solar heating on request)
  • Site offices, boardrooms and clinic units
  • Container conversions and modifications
  • Turnkey: transport, siting, electrical and plumbing
Questions

Frequently asked

Where do you work?

Our boiler shop is in Stanger on the KwaZulu-Natal North Coast. We work across KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape and provide 24/7 engineering support anywhere in Africa.

Do you work during shutdowns and at night?

Yes. Much of our boiler and pipework is done during planned shutdowns, including night shifts, so your plant is back online on time. Call 076 057 8413 for urgent call-outs.

Which welding standards do you work to?

Our coded welders work to ASME and BS standards. We confirm the code, procedures and inspection requirements for each job when we quote.

Can we see your quality and compliance documents?

Yes. Our Quality Management System is available for client perusal on request, as are our CIPC, VAT, tax compliance, COIDA letter of good standing, B-BBEE and CIDB documents.

Do you only do big industrial jobs?

No. Big or small, we do it all: from a single repair or a set of hoppers to complete turnkey installations, site offices and modular units.
