Major EWP Inspections in Hervey Bay
A lot of Fraser Coast machines have done steady, unglamorous coastal work for years and are now reaching their major window — and for a small fleet or an owner-operator, the major is a genuine fork in the road between reinvesting in a known machine or trading it on. The interval is either 5 years or 10 years depending on the equipment class, and a decade of salt air and humidity hides corrosion deep in structure that only a strip-down can honestly find.
EWP Australia delivers major inspections for Hervey Bay owners — full strip-down of load-bearing structure, NDT of critical welds and pins, hydraulic and electrical overhaul assessment, load testing on completion and the engineering documentation that gives the machine its next inspection baseline. The scope is agreed and quoted before anything is pulled apart.
10-Year Major Inspections — The Scope
- Full strip-down and inspection of structural and load-bearing components
- NDT (crack testing) of welds, pins, bosses and critical sections
- Hydraulic, electrical and safety-system overhaul assessment
- Load testing on completion, witnessed and documented
- Engineering documentation recording the machine's new inspection baseline
- A clear scope and quote before work starts — no open-ended rebuilds

10-Year Major Inspections in Hervey Bay — Common Questions
Does my platform come due at the 5-year point or the 10?
That's set by the equipment class — one type reaches the major at 5 years, another not until 10. Give us the make, model and type when you get in touch and we'll confirm your platform's mark.
The machine will be out of action for the major — how do I plan for that?
We settle the scope and the likely turnaround before we start, so you can slot in a hire or move work about ahead of time. Booking before the due date rather than after keeps the timing of the outage in your hands.
