Engineering Solutions For Transport, General And Marine Sectors
Serving Hastings and the wider Hawke’s Bay region

Transport repairs, custom builds and welding services to keep you moving

When trucks sit idle, both money and time slip away. Waiting on certifiers stretches things out, leaving vehicles parked longer than they should be. With CSR Engineering Ltd, approvals and fixes happen faster, so your trucks are earning again without the long wait.

You’re kept involved during the process too, which gives you input into the final result and reassurance that things are heading in the right direction.

Certified LT400 repairs, heavy maintenance jobs and custom trailer builds can be done in-house or carried out at your site depending on what’s more practical.

Drawing on more than 30 years of hands-on experience, Sam and Ethan find solutions that keep things moving in the real world, not just on paper. Straightforward fixes, big rebuilds or preventative servicing for entire fleets all get the same attention to detail.

That means your vehicles remain compliant, safe and on the road instead of stuck in the yard. Get to know the people behind the work in our

Certified transport repairs that keep your fleet compliant

When a truck is parked, revenue slows. Certified LT400 repairs make sure your vehicles stay inside New Zealand safety standards and are always ready to present for inspection. From heavy plate replacements to precise alloy work, every detail holds up under scrutiny.

Fast turn arounds are often achieved due to our knowledgeable team and good working relationship with two certifying companies. You aren’t left waiting in limbo – it trims down the timeline, gets your gear cleared faster and keeps things moving.

You’ll see this same level of care applied to our
marine engineering and boat trailer repair company projects, where compliance matters just as much as performance.

Heavy equipment repairs and fast turnaround

Heavy machinery downtime can throw a whole contract off schedule. At our Hastings workshop you’ll find full facilities for hydraulic, brake and chassis repairs, plus servicing routines that stop issues before they boil over.

If you can’t get the machine to us, no problem – portable welders, generators and tools make it possible to bring the workshop directly to your site anywhere in Hawke’s Bay.

What you can expect: Problems pinpointed quickly and explained in plain language. Straight info on options and prices. Checks built in so the same fault doesn’t happen again.

All of this leads to minimised delays, steadier machines and a fleet you can lean on without nagging breakdowns. For custom builds and fabrication, take a look at our
general engineering services where jobs range from alloy welds to heavy rebuilds.

Custom truck and trailer builds for you

Every operator has different requirements, so truck and trailer builds are designed around you right from the start. Your ideas guide the framework, with practical tweaks added where they’ll save cost or shave time off your day-to-day.

Curtain-siders needing full hinge assembly replacements, container trailers with certified lock-down points – each is tailored to the way you work.

Because you’re part of the process, you’ll recognise the finished job as the vision you began with. It integrates into your operation smoothly, stands up under compliance checks and keeps its value going forward.

That same collaborative approach rolls through into our
boat trailer modifications and restoration work, which is also personalised to your exact needs.

Specialist curtain installation, repairs and re-certification

Curtain-side jobs are completed faster thanks to a long-standing partnership with Straightline Canvas. Using approved fabric and fittings means certification goes smoothly, saving you trouble and clearing vehicles back to work on shorter turnarounds.

Certified welding for repairs and modification

Strength and safety aren’t negotiable for the sake of convenience. Welding certification ensures every repair or fabrication job is done to standard. Nearly all the staff are qualified welders – which is rare in this industry where many shops have just one.

So no matter the project, from small fixes to major structural builds, certified welders are on it from start to finish.

On-site machining and well-maintained gear mean jobs don’t stall waiting for outsourced work. Forklift attachments, crane arms or transport gear – each one is completed at the right certification level and signed off properly.

tig welding and high tensile steel services.

Convenient pick-up, drop-off and on-site solutions

Transporting units to and from the workshop chews up driver hours and wages. CSR Engineering Ltd runs its own yard truck with a ring feeder and a fifth wheel, so your trucks and trailers can be picked up, worked on, then dropped back ready to go.

That saves you pulling a driver off the road just to sit and wait.

When an on-site repair makes more sense, the mobile kit heads out - generators, welders, and everything else packed up and ready. Whether the job’s done at your premises or ours in Hastings, the standard remains the same.

Honest communication and long-term partnerships

CSR Engineering Ltd makes sure you know whose hands are on your job and how it’s progressing. You can even send in photos for quoting, which speeds up approvals and reduces those dead spots waiting on site calls.

It’s about building ongoing partnerships with transport operators across the region – certified repairs, heavy transport engineering and welding support that hold up consistently. With that level of craft behind your fleet, you keep moving, keep compliant and keep earning.
