★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was pleased very much by the problem solving mentality of these people and the quality of the work being delivered. While visiting Whangarei with my yacht I had some serious issues with my single lever side mount control, that I wasn't able to solve. These guys helped me the same afternoon and fixed it within a few hours. Secondly, they build a complete new steering pedestal in stainless steel that is rock solid and fitted perfectly. Delivery was precisely on time and price was less than the max that was quoted. Extremely thankful to this family owned business, where everyone seems to be enjoying his job and interacts very friendly. Thx all!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were quoted a price to build a tool box.Was told the vehicle will be ready to pick up 5 times every time I went down it was not ready .When picked it up there was a bill for extras .Some of the extras were not extras. Workman ship was poor and the finish job was not clean.Had to get other people to fix the box to what we wanted
The arrangement for payment was with Bill 3rd at the start,3rd when we picked up the vehicle and a 3rd a month later and yes we have paid the Quoted price

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I got Bill to come have a look at my boat to weld 8 new anode studs to the hull and weld a 150mm seam. The boat was parked right next to NMM workshop, while there looking at the job i told Bill that i have a a guy available as a spotter on the inside of the boat with a fire extinguisher.
Yesterday NMM came to do the job, the same afternoon i got a invoice for 7 hours labour and about $40 for materials, what a shock, I checked with my worker and he claims that Bill and his welder wen no longer that 2 hours onsite. When i queried the hours on the invoice with Bill, he said that they had to off load 3 jerry cans, 1 dingy motor and 2 gas bottles and my worker had to open 2 floor boards to expose the hull from inside, this work was done by my worker, well they may have helped by passing a few things down. Bill is adamant that his invoice of 7hours at $85 per hour is justified to make the boat safe to weld and to weld 8 studs and 150mm seam, the joke is they welded less than 1m from a half full diesel tank ??
When Bill came to look at the job he gave no instructions on what needed to be removed for him to be able to do the work required, this comes down to poor communication, I would have been happy to pay for 2 hours of labour as witnessed by my worker for 2 staff a total of 4 man hours, however Bills attitude was "it is what it is" and the 7 hour charge stands.
On closer inspection of the workmanship it is an average job, not what would be expected from a $85 per hour rate. I will pay the invoice as soon as i can, however it will take a bit longer as i was expecting a charge for 1, maybe 2 hours of work and not the ridiculous 7hours. by the way Bill claims that he had to be the spotter for the job because of his insurance, if that was the case, he could have told me that upfront.
bottom line, poor communication and a blatant rip off
