FLEET AND MACHINERY SERVICING · GAUTENG
Fleet and machinery servicing Gauteng is the core of what CMKT Engineering and Projects delivers every single working day. Whether you operate a single tipper truck or a full construction fleet of excavators, dozers, TLBs, and rollers, keeping that equipment running at peak performance is not optional — it is the difference between a profitable project and a costly standstill.
WHY IT MATTERS
Gauteng is South Africa’s economic engine. Construction projects, road upgrades, mining operations, and bulk earthmoving contracts run continuously across the province. Every hour a machine sits idle waiting for a part or a technician costs money — sometimes tens of thousands of rands per day on a large civil contract.
Unplanned breakdowns are almost always more expensive than planned servicing. A missed oil change interval on a Cummins 6BT engine can lead to accelerated wear in the crankshaft bearings. An ignored hydraulic fluid service on a CAT C4.4-powered excavator can result in a pump failure that takes a machine off site for weeks.
Many operators delay servicing to save money in the short term. A neglected turbocharger on a Mitsubishi 6D24 engine does not simply stop working — it often fails catastrophically, sending debris into the intake manifold and destroying the engine internals. What could have been a R3 500 turbocharger service becomes a full engine overhaul costing R60 000 or more.
WHAT WE SERVICE
Our fleet and machinery servicing programme covers the complete range of heavy plant and transport machinery operating across Gauteng’s construction, mining, road, and logistics sectors.
Excavators, TLBs, dozers and bulldozers, bobcats, front loaders, and graders. We understand the specific service requirements of each machine type including hydraulic system servicing, final drive inspections, undercarriage assessments, and engine maintenance.
10-ton rollers and compactors, crushers, and water trucks. Road construction and rehabilitation projects across Gauteng rely on this equipment daily. Consistent servicing keeps compaction quality and output rates where they need to be.
10-cubic tipper trucks and heavy transport vehicles. Tipper trucks operating on Gauteng construction sites and quarry haul roads are subjected to extreme duty cycles — their engines, transmissions, and hydraulic tipping systems require regular, competent attention.
ENGINES WE WORK ON
One of the defining strengths of CMKT Engineering is the breadth of diesel engine expertise our team carries. We work confidently across the full spectrum of engines found in Gauteng’s heavy plant and transport fleets.
Whether your fleet is predominantly CAT or Cummins, ISUZU tippers or Weichai crushers, CMKT has the technical knowledge to service your equipment correctly.
WHAT WE DO
Fleet and machinery servicing at CMKT goes well beyond routine oil and filter changes. Every service is treated as a diagnostic opportunity.
Tailored maintenance programmes for your fleet's specific operating conditions and duty cycles. Covers engine oil and filters, fuel filters, air filtration, coolant, hydraulic oil, gearbox oils, belts, hoses, battery condition, and brake systems.
Learn More →Complete engine overhauls and rebuilds including full disassembly, component inspection, machining of worn components, replacement of pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets and seals, and reassembly to manufacturer tolerances. Backed by engine dynamometer testing.
Learn More →Hydraulic pump repairs, cylinder reconditioning, control valve servicing, and hydraulic fluid analysis and replacement. Keeping hydraulic systems clean and properly maintained is one of the most cost-effective things you can do for your fleet.
Learn More →We balance, inspect, and rebuild turbocharger units for the full range of engines in our scope. A worn turbocharger fitted to a recently serviced engine will shorten its service life significantly.
Learn More →Worn or contaminated injector pumps cause poor starting, black smoke, excessive fuel consumption, and power loss. We recondition injector pumps to restore fuel delivery accuracy and protect engine internals.
Learn More →Gearboxes, torque converters, and final drives on heavy plant repaired and restored. We work to restore correct shift performance, eliminate slipping, and prevent premature failure.
Learn More →CMKT dispatches experienced technicians to your site to diagnose and resolve breakdowns in situ where possible. Fast response to a field breakdown can be the difference between losing one shift and losing an entire week of production.
Learn More →After a major repair or engine rebuild, we use engine dynamometer testing to verify power output, fuel consumption, and operational parameters against specification — before the machine returns to site.

CMKT Engineering provides fleet servicing and mechanical support across the key industries that depend on heavy plant and machinery to operate.
Commercial buildings, civil infrastructure, roads, and bulk earthmoving. Excavators, TLBs, dozers, and front loaders are the backbone of Gauteng construction.
Road rehabilitation, surfacing, and civil construction across Gauteng and beyond. Rollers, compactors, graders, and water carts require consistent, competent servicing.
Mines and quarries operate on demanding duty cycles that accelerate wear. CMKT provides scheduled servicing and breakdown response for mining plant across South Africa.
Agricultural equipment operating across South Africa’s farming regions. Tractors, combine harvesters, and processing plant require the same level of care as construction machinery.
Tipper trucks, bulk haulage, and transport fleets operating across Gauteng and into the rest of South Africa. Engine and transmission reliability is business-critical.
Compactors, skip loaders, and specialised waste management vehicles. We service the diesel engines and hydraulic systems that keep waste operations running.
WHY CHOOSE US
Led by Clement Tapera, qualified Automotive Engine Fitter, and Farai Zhou, qualified Diesel Plant Fitter. Trade-qualified professionals with formal training in the specific disciplines that heavy plant and fleet servicing demands.
Competency across the full range of engines found in Gauteng’s heavy equipment fleets — from John Deere and Cummins to Weichai and Tata. You do not need to manage multiple specialist suppliers for a mixed fleet.
CMKT was built on the belief that quality and affordability are not opposites. We do not cut corners to reduce a quote, and we do not inflate costs unnecessarily. Our pricing reflects the real cost of doing the job correctly.
We can work on your equipment where it stands or bring it into workshop for complex repairs. This flexibility matters when you have a machine at a remote site or need a quick field fix to get through to a scheduled service.
We communicate clearly about what we find, what it will cost, how long it will take, and what your options are. No surprises on the invoice. No unexplained delays.
What We Do
We cover the full range of heavy mechanical and engineering work. Whether you need a single component repaired or a complete engine rebuild, our team handles it with the same level of care every time.
What Clients Say
We do not believe in empty promises. Here is what clients across South Africa say about working with us.
CMKT Engineering and Projects overhauled two of our mine spec diesel engines. The turnaround was fast and both units are running stronger than expected. That kind of workmanship is hard to find.
Our excavator hydraulic system failed on site and caused a serious delay. The CMKT field team was on location within hours and had us back up and running the same day.
We have been using CMKT for fleet servicing across our transport operation for over two years. Their workmanship is consistent, their communication is clear, and our vehicle downtime has dropped significantly.
The dynamometer testing after our engine rebuild gave us full confidence before we put the truck back into service. That level of accountability is exactly what we needed.
We are based in Gauteng and we travel to client sites and field breakdowns across South Africa and into neighbouring countries. If your equipment is down, we will get to you.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Our scheduled preventative maintenance covers engine oil and filter changes, fuel filter replacement, air filtration servicing, coolant system checks, hydraulic oil and filter changes, gearbox and differential oil changes, belt and hose inspections, battery condition checks, and brake system assessments. We tailor the schedule to your fleet’s specific operating conditions and manufacturer service intervals.
CMKT Engineering provides both field and workshop servicing. Scheduled maintenance can often be carried out on site across Gauteng, reducing the logistics cost and downtime of transporting machines to a workshop. More complex repairs — such as engine overhauls, hydraulic reconditioning, or machining work — require workshop conditions. We advise on the most practical approach for your specific fleet and location.
