Workshop Services · Fermanagh · Since 1993

Your Machine Is Down.
Every Hour Costs You Money.

Forestry and agricultural contractors can't afford downtime. When a hose blows, a RAM fails, or your saw blade is worn to nothing and you need it sorted fast by people who understand what that machine means to your working day.

One Workshop. Everything Under One Roof.

We Don't Just Build Attachments.
We Keep Working Machinery Running.

Most contractors don't realise we offer this. The same workshop that has been building excavator attachments in Fermanagh since 1993 is available to repair, refurbish and fabricate for agricultural contractors, forestry operators, farmers running their own plant, and anyone else who needs working machinery kept in the field.

We're not a national chain with a call centre. We're a working engineering shop run by people who have spent their careers on this kind of machinery. If it runs on hydraulics or steel, we can work on it.

Saw Blade Re-Cuts & Re-Tipping

The teeth are gone. Most people bin the blade. That's the expensive option.

When cutting teeth wear down on a saw head blade — and on heavy hedge work or forestry thinning they will — we bring the blade back to our workshop, strip it out and weld in a fresh set of teeth. Same blade. New cutting edge. Ready for another full season.

  • Save approximately 50% compared to buying a new blade
  • Works on 600mm and 900mm blades
  • Not sure if yours is worth re-cutting? Call us and we'll tell you straight

Hydraulic Hose Manufacture

A blown hose doesn't just cost you the hose. It costs you the day.

We manufacture hydraulic hoses to specification in our workshop. Bring the failed hose in and we'll have a replacement made and ready to fit. No ordering online. No waiting three days for a courier. No guessing on fittings.

  • Custom lengths and end fittings to your machine's spec
  • Excavators, tractors, telehandlers and plant
  • Most hoses made same day or next day

Hydraulic RAM Refurbishment

A leaking RAM is not always a write-off. Most contractors replace them when they don't need to.

We strip the RAM down, replace the seals, inspect all components, reassemble and test. The result: a RAM that performs as it should at a fraction of the cost of a new one. Works on excavator, blade, attachment and general plant RAMs.

  • Significantly cheaper than full replacement
  • Bring it in for an honest assessment first
  • Agricultural, forestry and plant hydraulics

Hydraulic Seal Stockist & Supplier

Waiting on a seal to arrive from a supplier is money you're not making.

We stock a range of hydraulic seals and supply directly to agricultural contractors, forestry operators, farmers and plant operators across Fermanagh, Tyrone, Cavan, Monaghan and the wider Northern Ireland and ROI area. Know your spec? Call and we'll confirm stock. Not sure? Bring the component in and we'll identify it.

MIG & TIG Welding

Cracked bracket. Broken frame. Custom fabrication. Bring it in.

Thirty years of fabrication experience means we know what needs to hold under load. Structural repairs on plant and machinery, modifications to existing attachments, and custom fabrication work built to your specification. Forestry machine brackets, agricultural implement frames, site plant repairs — done right, first time.

  • MIG welding for structural and general repairs
  • TIG welding for precision fabrication work
  • Custom brackets and components built to spec

Plasma Cutting

Accurate steel cutting for fabrication and repair work — done in-house, not sent out.

We carry out plasma cutting in our Fermanagh workshop for steel plate profiles, replacement wear plates, custom bracket profiles and structural repair components. If your fabrication or repair job requires accurate cutting, we have the equipment and the experience to do it properly without adding days to the turnaround.

  • Steel plate profiles and wear plates
  • Custom components for fabrication jobs
  • Combined with welding for complete repair packages

Common Questions

Workshop Services — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you repair hydraulic hoses and RAMs on any excavator, or only on McElhill attachments?

Any make and model. We manufacture hoses and refurbish RAMs for excavators, tractors, telehandlers and general plant, whether it came from us or not. If it runs on hydraulics, we can work on it.

How quickly can you make a replacement hydraulic hose?

Most hoses are made same day or next day. Bring the failed hose in with the fittings and we will match it, rather than you ordering online and guessing at the spec.

Is it worth refurbishing a hydraulic RAM, or should I just replace it?

A leaking or worn RAM is often not a write-off. We strip it down, replace the seals, inspect every component, reassemble and test it — at a fraction of the cost of a new RAM. Bring it in and we will give you an honest assessment before you spend anything.

Can you re-cut or re-tip a saw head blade that isn't a McElhill Reaper?

In most cases, yes. If your blade's dimensions and tooth pattern match what we work with, we can weld in a fresh set of teeth rather than you buying new. Call with the make, size and condition and we will tell you straight whether it's worth re-cutting.

Do you stock hydraulic seals for tractors and farm machinery, or just excavators?

We stock a range of hydraulic seals and supply agricultural contractors, forestry operators and farmers as well as excavator owners across Fermanagh, Tyrone, Cavan, Monaghan and the wider Northern Ireland and ROI area. Know your spec? Call and we'll confirm stock. Not sure? Bring the component in and we'll identify it for you.

Do I need to book an appointment for welding, fabrication or plasma cutting work?

Call first to book your job in. We're a working engineering shop, not a walk-in counter, so a quick call lets us give you an honest turnaround before you make the trip to Fermanagh.

Do you cover workshop repairs across Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and England?

All work is carried out at our own workshop in Fermanagh, and we serve contractors bringing machines and components in from across Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and England. Call to discuss getting your machine or part to us.

My machine has broken down just before hedge cutting season starts — can you help fast?

That's exactly the situation this workshop exists for. Hoses, RAMs, blades and structural repairs are all done in-house with no waiting on a dealer or a courier. Call the workshop directly on 07734 357 045 and we'll get you sorted as fast as we can before the season opens on 1 September.

What Contractors Say

Downtime Is the Enemy. This Workshop Keeps Us Working.

★★★★★

Back Cutting the Same Day

"A hose blew on the digger halfway through a hedge job. Called Gary, had a new one made and fitted the same afternoon. No three-day wait for a courier, no sitting idle."

Michael, Forestry Contractor, Northern Ireland

Saved Us the Cost of a New RAM

"Thought the RAM on the flail was finished and I was pricing a replacement. They stripped it, put new seals in, tested it, and it went straight back to work at a fraction of what a new one would have cost me."

Seán, Agricultural Contractor, Republic of Ireland

Blade Re-Cut, Ready for the Season

"Our saw blade was worn to nothing right before the season opened. Instead of buying a new one they re-cut the teeth and had it back to us in time. Same blade, cutting like new, at half the price."

Dave, Plant Hire Contractor, England

When Your Machine Stops,
Your Money Stops.

Most contractors wait days for a repair. Sourcing parts, booking in with a dealer, waiting on couriers. We do it differently. Every service is done in our own Fermanagh workshop. No middlemen. No delays. Just fast, honest work from people who understand what downtime costs you.
