Our Core Services

Five disciplines, one contractor

From a leaking hydraulic ram to underwater hull welding or a full boiler overhaul, our workshop and site teams cover the repair scope a vessel or plant actually needs - not just the part we specialise in.

Hydraulic & Pneumatic Repairs

This is where Kins Marine Engineering Service started, and it remains our deepest specialism: hydraulic and pneumatic systems in medium and heavy-duty industrial and marine machinery, from fire and bilge pumps to deck cranes and steering gear.

Our workshop handles the precision side of the job - machining bores, replacing wear rings, fitting couplings - while our site teams strip and rig equipment on board so a unit only travels once, to the workshop and back.

Marine & General Contracting

As Marine & General Contractors, we take on the wider repair scope a vessel needs at anchorage, harbour or berth - mobilising a technician team on board, rigging and removing machinery for shore repair, and managing the job through to sign-off.

This covers afloat repairs, deck machinery servicing, and the emergency callouts that can't wait for a scheduled yard period.

Steel & Pipe Fabrication

Pump foundations, pipe runs and structural steelwork are fabricated in-house to the tolerances our own machining work demands - so a repaired unit sits correctly on its mounts the first time.

We fabricate both in our Kirulapona workshop and on site, for marine and shore-based industrial clients alike.

Boiler Repairs, Insulation & Cladding

Beyond hydraulics, our teams undertake boiler repair work along with the insulation and cladding that follows it - keeping engine room plant safe, efficient and compliant.

This service is typically scoped alongside a wider mechanical repair, so the full engine room job is handled by one contractor.
