Mine Maintenance in Katherine
Structural repairs, component upgrades and hardfacing for excavators, loaders, crushers and heavy mining equipment.
Keeping heavy mining gear in the cut
Humpty Doo Welding and Fabrication delivers mine maintenance across Katherine and the Northern Territory. Katherine's pastoral, civil and RAAF Tindal operations need durable repairs and fabrication that hold up to hard outback use. We mobilise from our Humpty Doo base with fully-equipped rigs, bringing the same coded welding and fabrication standards to Katherine that we are known for Territory-wide.
Breakdowns don't keep business hours. Our mine maintenance crews deliver structural repairs, hardfacing and component upgrades for excavators, loaders, crushers, conveyors and haul fleets — on site, around the clock, wherever the work is.
We scale to planned shutdowns and emergency callouts alike, with accredited welders, mobile rigs and a fully-equipped workshop behind them. One accountable team from first cut to sign-off.

Welding & fabrication in Katherine, NT
Katherine sits at the crossroads of the Stuart and Victoria Highways and is anchored by RAAF Base Tindal, now in the middle of a major Defence-funded expansion. Around it sit large pastoral stations, civil contractors and an agricultural sector that all run hard equipment in unforgiving conditions.
We mobilise crews, rigs and machining capacity down the highway for planned fabrication and on-site breakdown repair. Outback dust, heat and heavy use demand durable welds and hardfacing that last — that's what we build to.
