EWP Repairs & Servicing in Geraldton

Geraldton is the port city of Western Australia's Mid West, handling grain, mineral sands and iron ore exports and serving as the coastal base for the region's mining, rock lobster fishing and agriculture. Two things define the working conditions here: the salt-laden air off the Indian Ocean, and the notorious Geraldton wind that blows steadily most of the year. Salt settles onto the structure, fasteners and electrical connectors and eats into them, while the wind carries abrasive grit and coastal dust that works into moving parts. Together they age access platforms faster than the hours alone would suggest, and corrosion in particular tends to hide until it reaches structure.

EWP Australia services booms, scissor lifts and truck-mounted units throughout Geraldton and the Mid West. The work covers hunting out faults in the hydraulics, electrics and steelwork, running the routine servicing each maker's timetable calls for, resealing rams and overhauling components, and completing corrosion, weld and structural repair to the applicable standard. Once finished, a platform is put through its function tests, and any structural repair is proven with a rated load test before it returns to service.
