Taminda Hydraulics & Engineering

Taminda Hydraulics & Engineering acquired Young's Mobile Hydraulics and from 3 February 2025 operates under the name Taminda Hydraulics & Engineering. The business relocated to Young's larger and more centrally located premises at the corner of Plain and Belmore Streets, Taminda, with the move completed by 10 February 2025. Barrie Young is thanked for his trust and for allowing the business to continue his legacy.

Peter and Alli purchased the business in September 2019. The team includes Matt, Jake, Pete, Alli and Rick. The business serves the Tamworth area and industries including agriculture, commercial, industrial and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM). Services include hydraulic repairs, metal fabrication and engineering, hydraulic system design, custom hydraulic engineering, servicing, overhauls and rebuilds, and on-site hydraulic servicing.

Prompt and capable hydraulic repair work is the theme running through feedback for this Tamworth business, with customers consistently describing jobs turned around far faster than expected. Several reviewers note that broken hydraulic hoses and rams are repaired within hours, including one account of a ram dropped off in the morning and ready by the afternoon because it was needed for mixing cattle feed the following day. Helpfulness and approachability come up repeatedly, with staff described as friendly, amazing and willing to take on work that other businesses had declined.

Reviewers highlight the depth of technical knowledge on show, particularly the ability to set up a relief valve to specified settings on a large test bench and to source the fittings and parts required for a modified hydraulic system. Customers also note that problems are solved through practical lateral thinking rather than being turned away, and that pricing is reasonable for the work carried out. The combination of fast turnaround, knowledgeable staff and fair charges is what reviewers return to when describing their experience.
