Engineering knowledge that keeps your project on track

When machinery fails or urgent repairs come up, timing is everything. Every day lost costs money, and what you need is a quick, accurate fix that gets you moving again.

With over 30 years of combined hands-on experience from Ethan and Sam, supported by a workshop of qualified welders, you’ve got specialists who can think on their feet, solve problems quickly and line up a workable plan before delays start to bite.

It might mean building a
tiny house trailer build up to three and a half tonnes, fabricating a one-off piece or getting your truck back in action without waiting weeks for a replacement part.

The right stock and supplier networks are already in place which means your build or repair is turned around faster and more efficiently than most expect.

Your priorities shape each project from the outset, with a real focus on cutting downtime and keeping costs under control.

Custom engineering solutions as varied as your work

No two jobs are the same – every truck, trailer or piece of gear is different from the last. That’s exactly why your input matters.

You might need a trailer suited for hauling a container, or maybe a complete truck conversion to handle heavier work demands. Repairs and modifications are mapped out with you step by step so that the outcome does what it should, not a compromise.

Recent work has included: - Custom trailers up to three and a half tonnes, including
trailer builds for tiny homes or containers - Full truck and trailer conversions - Fleet refurbishments and urgent structural jobs.

Whether it’s a straightforward repair or a personalised build, you benefit from sharp problem solving and plenty of experience. For a deeper look at our capabilities, visit the

Certified welding and specialist alloy expertise

Many of our engineers at CSR Engineering are certified welders, meaning you’re not relying on just one or two people but a team of trained professionals, refreshed with regular re-certifications.

From complex tig welding techniques to specialist alloy welding, your transport, marine or heavy structural jobs are handled with precision and care.

Strong connections with certifiers also speed the process up. Often, photos are enough for approval which clears the way for your repair to get underway without frustrating waits. Learn more about our welding and certification process on the
General Engineering page.

In-house capability for projects large and small

Because so much is handled right in our own workshop, there’s no waiting around for third parties. Quality stays steady and timelines don’t stall while things get sent away.

From fabrication and machining through to folding and compliance paperwork, jobs move fluidly from stage to stage under one roof.

Capabilities include: 1.
Heavy equipment repair and structural work 2. Forklift, digger and machinery repair 3. Specialist fabrication or one-off builds 4. Brake coding alongside compliance certification.

This one-stop approach saves you juggling contractors while your work finishes to the standard you expect. For more details, check our
Marine services.

Flexible on-site or workshop-based engineering

Some jobs just make more sense to handle on location. Portable welders, generators and specialist tools mean repairs can be done at your site with very little disruption. Heavy equipment stays put, saving you downtime and effort.

Transport’s covered too. With a fully set up yard truck capable of towing or collecting trailers, your machine or vehicle can be brought in and dropped back when finished. It saves you the hassle of tying up staff and cuts unnecessary cost.

Not many engineering workshops offer this extra service, but it makes a noticeable difference to how smoothly your work keeps moving. Find out more about our on-site solutions on the
Contact page.

Reliable outcomes with fast turnaround

Across Hawke’s Bay, our reputation sits on trusted workmanship and keeping you in the loop. Updates are direct and often instant and we are always looking for ways to keep your project moving forward quickly. This can often shave days off jobs and get your equipment back in service sooner.

All work stays on track with budget and deadlines agreed upfront. Checked, certified welding and tried workshop processes mean your machinery, transport or marine projects are in safe hands. Discover more about our story in the
