Repair and Calibration

Geotechnics Sales repair and calibrate the following items: Impact Testers, Shear Vanes, Air entrainment meters, NDM's, sand equivalent equipment, Schmidt Hammers, piezometers and scala penetrometers.

Geotechnics sales offer in-house calibration for most items that are sold through us. We also provide and IANZ endorsed calibration for Nuclear Density Meters (NDM) through a partnership with MCC (Measurement & Calibration Centre) in Parnell, Auckland.

We carry numerous spare parts for a number of items so repairs, in most cases can be carried out in our Newmarket office. We also carry out more complex repairs if the need arises and a full estimate of repairs can be quoted before the job is started. For more information please email [email protected].

Impact Hammer Reconditioning

If you have an old Clegg Hammer that needs a bit of life breathed into it then look no further.

We are able to recondition old Clegg Hammers to a near new standard. If you have a Clegg in a less than desirable state please send it in for an appraisal. The photos shown on the left are an indication of the type of results that can be achieved. We are also able to upgrade existing Digital Handle Models (DHM) by using a replacement external meter box. For more information please email [email protected].

Air Entrainment Meter Reconditioning

Air entrainment meters are widely used for concrete testing in NZ and often the units get damaged or simply worn down from overuse. You can now have these reconditioned to a near new standard.

We calibrate and service a number of these units for our NZ clients and we find that in many cases a good overhaul of the unit returns them to a near new standard. We replace all of the seals, gauge, pump components, pet-cocks and valves and in general we give them the ‘full makeover'. The pictures on the left show a typical result. For more information please email [email protected].

NDM Calibration/Repairs

There are over 200 NDM's in NZ and each one requires a calibration and service at least every 2 years. Geotechnics offer the only IANZ endorsed calibration available in NZ.

Since 1997 Geotechnics have had a partnership with the Measurement & Calibration Centre (MCC) in Parnell, Auckland . MCC is a dedicated calibration company that offers a 5 block calibration for all NDM's. The facility is a temperature and humidity controlled environment and consequently is able to offer unique services including NDM calibrations.

We are also able to service and repair NDM's as we carry a large number of spare parts for your gauge. Our technical staff are also able to perform repairs and diagnosis for your gauge. For more information please email [email protected].

Laboratory Set-ups

We are often asked to quote on full laboratory set ups including site labs. We have plenty of experience in this field and are fluent with all the relevant standards.

In the past we have completed many NZ and overseas lab set-ups. These range from basic ‘one-test' consignments right through to full lab set-ups. We specialise in working from specifications as per NZ/AS/ASTM standards so as a customer all you need to supply us with is the standard number and that's it! We can take it from there.

For more information on this service please email [email protected] or look at our projects page.

Large Tenders

As with full laboratory set-ups, we are also specialists in preparing quotes for large tenders.

Our staff have many years of experience with quoting for tenders. For any large projects that you are involved with we can quote the required gear off tender documents. Simply send us the paperwork and we will finish the rest.
