Industrial valves are critical control points in any process system. A leaking seat, a seized actuator, or a valve that won't stroke correctly can bring production to a halt or create a serious safety issue. On the Sunshine Coast, finding a mechanical fitter with genuine valve servicing experience — not just general maintenance — has been difficult. That's where OMS comes in.
We service, overhaul and repair the full range of industrial valves used in food and beverage processing, manufacturing, mining, power generation and water treatment facilities. Gate valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, globe valves, check valves, control valves, and the electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuators that operate them.
We work on-site where possible to minimise production impact, and have workshop facilities for full valve overhauls and pressure testing when required. Our background includes extensive valve work in food-grade hygienic environments through to high-pressure mining and power generation applications.

Don't wait on hold. Call us directly and we'll talk through what's happening and give you an honest assessment of what's needed — on-site repair, overhaul, or replacement.
📞 0472 876 711Full disassembly, inspection, seat reconditioning, seal and packing replacement, internal component repair or replacement, and reassembly to manufacturer specifications. Covers all major valve types and sizes.
Electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuator servicing, calibration and repair. Positioner adjustment, limit switch setting, torque verification, and full actuator overhauls. On-site and workshop.
Where possible we service valves in-line to minimise production downtime. Packing replacement, gland adjustment, seat lapping, and minor repairs carried out without full removal from service.
Full calibration and stroke testing for control valves and actuated valve assemblies. Positioner setup, travel calibration, seat leakage testing, and commissioning documentation.
Pressure testing to relevant Australian standards and manufacturer specifications. Body pressure testing, seat leakage testing, and test certification for overhauled valves returned to service.
Scheduled valve inspection and maintenance programs for industrial facilities. We assess your valve population, prioritise maintenance based on criticality and condition, and develop a documented maintenance schedule.
Food-grade valve servicing for food and beverage processing facilities. Hygienic ball valves, butterfly valves, diaphragm valves, and associated actuators. Compliance with hygiene requirements and food-safe materials.
High-pressure valve servicing for mining, power generation, and heavy industrial applications. Experience with severe-service valves, high-temperature applications, and abrasive media conditions.
Planned shutdown valve inspection and overhaul programs. We work through valve scope efficiently during planned outages and shutdowns — inspection, repair, overhaul and testing to get your plant back on schedule.
Valve servicing is a specialist skill. A mechanical fitter with general maintenance experience and a mechanic who has spent years working on industrial valve populations are two very different things. Valves that are incorrectly overhauled, improperly packed, or calibrated wrong can leak, fail, or introduce contamination risk in food and beverage environments.
OMS brings genuine valve servicing experience from demanding industrial environments — mining operations, power generation facilities, and food processing plants — to the Sunshine Coast. We understand the difference between a valve that works and a valve that is safe, compliant, and properly commissioned.
For Sunshine Coast food processing, manufacturing, and industrial businesses, having a local contractor with this level of valve expertise — and the ability to respond quickly — is genuinely valuable. We're here, we're qualified, and we know what we're doing.
Different valve types require different servicing approaches. Here is a breakdown of what is involved for the most common industrial valve types we service on the Sunshine Coast.
Gate valves are used for isolation and are prone to seat and wedge wear, gland packing leaks, and stem corrosion. Servicing includes gland repacking, stem inspection and replacement, seat and wedge reconditioning, and body pressure testing. Rising and non-rising stem configurations.
Ball valves are common in process piping and require seat ring replacement, ball surface inspection and replacement, stem seal replacement, and body seal reconditioning. We handle full bore, reduced bore, and trunnion-mounted configurations in a range of materials.
Butterfly valve servicing covers disc and seat liner inspection and replacement, stem bearing replacement, gearbox and actuator servicing, and sealing surface reconditioning. Wafer, lug, and double-flanged configurations in ductile iron, stainless and specialty materials.
Control valve servicing requires specialist knowledge of valve trim, characterisation, and positioner calibration. We carry out full plug and seat replacement, packing replacement, positioner setup, and stroke testing — with documentation for your maintenance records.
Pneumatic scotch yoke and rack-and-pinion actuators, electric actuators, and hydraulic actuators. Spring replacement, seal kits, gearbox servicing, positioner and limit switch setup, torque testing, and fail-safe function verification.
Hygienic butterfly valves, mixproof valves, diaphragm valves, and seat valves for food and beverage processing. Correct material selection, gasket compatibility, surface finish requirements, and clean-in-place compatibility are all understood and observed.
In many cases yes. Gland repacking, minor seat work, actuator servicing and calibration can often be carried out in-line without full valve removal, minimising production impact. Whether this is practical depends on the valve type, size, and the nature of the work required. We'll give you an honest assessment when we look at the job.
Yes. We carry out hydrostatic body pressure testing and seat leakage testing in accordance with relevant Australian standards and manufacturer specifications for valves we overhaul. Test records and certification are provided for overhauled valves returned to service.
We work across a wide range of brands including Emerson, AVK, KITZ, Habonim, Gemu, DeZURIK, Baker Hughes, Parker Hannifin, Pentair, SPX APV, Alfa Laval, and many others. We also service valves from smaller or less common manufacturers. If you have a specific brand, give us a call and we'll confirm our experience with it.
Yes. We have extensive experience with hygienic valve servicing for food and beverage processing environments. We understand the material requirements, surface finish standards, gasket compatibility, and clean-in-place considerations involved in food-grade valve work. See our factory maintenance page for more on our food processing experience.
Yes. We can assess your valve population, prioritise maintenance based on criticality, condition, and service history, and develop a documented maintenance schedule. Regular site visits and planned maintenance work to keep your valves in service and avoid costly emergency failures.
Call us directly on 0472 876 711. We're local to the Sunshine Coast so we're not driving from Brisbane. Response time depends on what we have on, but we treat valve failures in operating plant as priority callouts. We'll give you an honest timeframe when you call.
Yes. Planned shutdowns are the ideal time to inspect and overhaul valves that are difficult or impossible to access during production. We can work through a pre-planned valve maintenance scope efficiently to help you get back on line on schedule. Talk to us well in advance so we can plan resources and any required parts.
Local. Qualified. Genuine valve experience. We'll get it sorted.
