01 — Start here

Three ways in.
Pick yours.

Different buyers need different things from us. Rather than make you dig, here are the three doors.

01 / Trade

I subcontract this work

Crane hire, plant hire, truck dealers, workshops and panel shops. You need a reliable subcontractor who turns work around without needing supervision and doesn't embarrass you in front of your client.

Trade partners → 02 / Procurement

I have targets to meet

Procurement officers and contract managers. You need a genuine Aboriginal owned supplier who can actually deliver the scope, and paperwork that survives an audit.

Indigenous procurement → 03 / Direct

I own the machine

Owner operators and small fleets. Your gear looks tired, it is worth money, and you want it back looking like it earns its keep. Tell us what it is and we will price it.

02 — Core capability

Three trades.
One contractor.

Blasting, coating and transport are normally three suppliers, three quotes and three sets of excuses when plant comes back marked. We do all three, so there is one number to call and one business answering for the result.

01 / Blast Heavy haul trailer chassis before abrasive blasting

Abrasive blasting

Failed coatings, corrosion and contamination taken back to sound, keyed steel — to the preparation grade the specification calls for, not to whatever comes off easily.

Surface preparation →

02 / Coat

Prime mover cab in primer during two pack coating

Protective coatings

Two pack epoxy and polyurethane systems, zinc rich primers and heavy duty industrial topcoats. Selected against the environment the plant works in, not what is on the shelf.

Coating systems →

03 / Move

Prime mover chassis and cab ready for transport

Heavy haulage

Owner driver, Heavy Combination licensed, running our own prime mover and float. Plant collected, worked on and returned by the same business.

Plant movement →

03 — The argument

Why one
contractor.

“When three suppliers touch a machine, nobody owns the damage.”

The reason this business exists

No interface risk

A blaster blames the painter, the painter blames the carrier, the carrier blames the workshop. One contractor end to end removes the argument entirely, because there is nobody else to point at.

No double handling

Every extra pickup and drop is another chance to chip a fresh topcoat and another line on the invoice. Collect once, work once, deliver once.

One accountable person

The person who quotes the job does the work and answers the phone afterward. There is no account manager between you and the trade.

Procurement value

100% Aboriginal owned. The same trade work you would buy anyway, from a supplier that also counts toward your obligations.

04 — How a machine goes through

From worn out
to work ready.

Most of the value in the job is spent before a drop of topcoat is opened. A coating is only as good as the steel underneath it.

Strip

Failed coatings, corrosion and contamination removed back to sound, bare substrate.

Prep

Surface profiled and keyed. Cleanliness grade confirmed against the specification before anything is primed.

Prime

High build protective primer applied inside the manufacturer recoat window for maximum adhesion.

Finish

Two pack topcoat laid down panel by panel. Even colour, sharp lines, plant that goes straight back to work.

06 — Straight answers

What we will
tell you upfront.

Most contractors let you find out the limits after you have committed. Here they are before.

Full capability & compliance →

Delivery model	Mobile. We work at your site, yard or depot. A fixed workshop is planned, not yet in place.
Scale	Owner operated. Best suited to single machines, component batches and progressive fleet work rather than large simultaneous volume.
Public liability	$10,000,000. An increase to $20,000,000 is in progress for clients who require it.
Entity	Sole trader trading as FBTM. Incorporation to a Pty Ltd company is in progress.
Coverage	Victoria as standard. Interstate work considered on its merits, with our own prime mover and float.
What we won't do	Quote a preparation grade we cannot verify, or accept a scope we cannot resource properly. We will say so before you commit.

Send us the machine.

Give us the make, model, condition and the finish you need, and you will get a straight answer on scope, timing and price.
