Why Kaper

The hard part shouldn't be getting someone to turn up

Ask a fleet or plant manager what's hardest about AC and electrical work and it's rarely the work itself. It's finding someone who answers the phone, turns up when they said they would and gets it right the first time.

Kaper is built around fixing that. Our own line sums it up: when no one else will show up, we will. That means early starts, weekend breakdowns by arrangement, and working on site so your gear isn't sitting idle waiting for a workshop.

We only do business work. Utes, trucks, earthmoving plant, mining gear and the fleets that run them. Keeping it that way means our time goes to the jobs where downtime actually costs money.

How we work

Four things you can count on

We come to you

Depots, yards and job sites. Your gear stays where it's earning.

We tell you straight

What's wrong, what it takes to fix and what can wait. If it's not worth fixing, we'll say so.

Around your shifts

Early starts, yard days and weekend work by arrangement.

Fleet work only

Utes, trucks, plant and machinery. No private cars, caravans or boats.

Licensed for refrigerant work

ARC authorised

In Australia, refrigerants like R134a can only be handled by licensed technicians working for an authorised business. Kaper holds an ARC refrigerant trading authorisation, number AU57383.

Read more about the gases in your fleet in our guide to R134a and R1234yf.

Powering progress in heavy industry.

From 1.7 t to 800 t, if it has a cab, a compressor or a wiring loom, we work on it.
