Experience that
Highly trained people. Decades of hands-on experience. Practical support for construction materials testing equipment.

WHY GEO-CON SERVICE
We know the equipment because we work with it.
When a testing machine is down, the problem is bigger than the machine. Your laboratory, your testing program and your customers can all be waiting.
Our service department combines practical workshop experience with extensive manufacturer training and direct knowledge of the equipment we supply, manufacture and support.
We have trained with leading international manufacturers and have helped train and support customers and technical teams in New Zealand, Australia and around the world. That experience matters when the problem isn’t straightforward.
From a failed component to a complete retrofit, we look at the equipment as a whole and work towards the most sensible solution.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE SERVICE
Three different backgrounds.
One very experienced service team.
Our service capability is built on years of hands-on work, manufacturer training and real-world experience with CMT equipment.

Reece Jones
COO & Service Department Manager
Reece has led service and support at Geo-Con for nearly 20 years. His experience spans Geo-Con’s manufactured equipment, imported systems, machine work and concrete testing, backed by extensive training with European suppliers.
Glen Jones
Senior Service Technician
Glen brings around 20 years of hands-on service experience at Geo-Con, backed by more than 25 years’ mechanical and hydraulic experience overall and specialist CONTROLS training in Italy. Repairs, rebuilds, hydraulic faults and upgrades are his day-to-day work.
Jesse Bedra
Service Technician
Jesse joined Geo-Con after a long stint with IPC Global, bringing direct experience with advanced asphalt and materials testing systems. That background adds another level of technical knowledge to our service team.
Between us, the team has a deep working knowledge of mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, electronic, instrumentation and software-based testing systems — and the practical experience to diagnose what is actually going wrong.
WHAT WE CAN DO
Repair it. Upgrade it.
Rebuild it. Make it work better.
Our service capability is built on years of hands-on work, manufacturer training and real-world experience with CMT equipment.
Repairs & fault finding
Mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and electronic fault finding across laboratory and field testing equipment.
Preventative maintenance
Scheduled servicing, inspection and maintenance to reduce unexpected failures and downtime.
Refurbishment & rebuilds
Older or heavily used equipment can often be brought back to reliable operating condition rather than replaced.
Retrofits & upgrades
Modern controllers, displays, instrumentation and drive systems can breathe new life into existing frames and machines.
Custom modifications
Where the equipment you have doesn’t quite do what you need, our manufacturing and engineering capability lets us modify it.
Training & commissioning
We can commission equipment and train operators so your team understands the machine and gets the most from it.
INDEPENDENT SERVICE CAPABILITY
It doesn’t have to be equipment we sold you.
Have a machine from another manufacturer that needs attention?
We service and repair equipment outside the Geo-Con range, subject to evaluation, parts availability and access to the necessary technical information.
Because we also manufacture and modify equipment ourselves, we’re able to approach a problem from an engineering perspective — not simply replace parts.
RECENT WORK
Real examples of what our workshop can do.
Upgrades, controller replacements, retrofits and refurbishment work carried out for customers — using the equipment they already have.

TRAINING & INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT
Our training doesn’t stop at learning how to use the equipment.
Our technicians have undertaken extensive manufacturer training, including training with CONTROLS in Italy, and have worked with customers and technical teams well beyond our own workshop.
That international exposure means our team sees problems from different applications and different laboratories — knowledge we bring back to every service call.
