C & R Engineering is a second generation owned family business operating since 1989. Ross and Carol Turner originally traded as C & R Crafts producing Gates, Fencing and Floral Art products on Tremaine Ave. In the late 90’s the business moved to Malden St due to the gates and fencing growth and at this point the business name was also changed to C & R Engineering Ltd as it is known today
Nowadays, we specialise in the Commercial market doing Structural Steel, Seismic Strengthening along with Maintenance, Gates and Fencing.
In 2013 Craig and Jaclyn Turner purchased the business from Ross and Carol, with Carol retiring and Ross staying in to support Craig with his knowledge. Tragically on the 16th July 2014 Ross was taken from us, but his expertise and spirit live on in the business and he will always be fondly remembered and treasured by all who worked with him.

Craig started working at C & R Engineering after schools and on Saturday mornings sweeping the floor when he was 12. When he was 20, Carol and Ross gave him the opportunity to become an apprentice and learn the trade and he has never looked back. Craig’s passion is hockey and most other sports.
Jaclyn started working in the Office March 2014. She looks after the day to day running of the office, health and safety and supports Craig and William. Craig and Jaclyn married in January 2009 and have three children, Charlotte, Olivia and James. Jaclyn enjoys Netball, spending time with the family and is also kept busy as the Chairperson for the school PTA.
