Dubbo's Diesel Mechanic Since Day One
Lappa Diesel & Contracting is a diesel mechanic business based in Dubbo, NSW, founded and run by Mitchell Lappa. With more than 10 years of hands-on experience, Mitchell services commercial and industrial clients across Central Western NSW, offering workshop and mobile diesel servicing, diagnostics, repairs, and emergency breakdown support.
How Lappa Diesel & Contracting Got Started
Mitchell Lappa started Lappa Diesel & Contracting after building more than a decade of hands-on diesel mechanic experience. The business is based in Dubbo and operates from a physical workshop at Unit 2/23 Jannali Rd, Dubbo, NSW 2830.
As the business grew, Mitchell expanded it to offer both workshop-based and mobile, on-site servicing, giving clients the choice of dropping equipment in or having him come to them. Over time he took on earthmoving equipment, road transport vehicles and light vehicles, growing the business by taking on whatever clients needed rather than limiting its scope, including diesel diagnostics and repair services.
Meet Mitchell Lappa
Mitchell has been working as a diesel mechanic for over 10 years, and it shows in the way he approaches every job. He runs the business himself, which means he's the one who shows up, does the diagnostics, and turns the spanner on your equipment. Mitchell holds the industry certifications, often called long tickets, required for this kind of work, and he's happy to walk clients through what those mean over a call. He services clients across Central Western NSW, including Dubbo and the surrounding areas. If you need a hand, you can book a service with Mitchell directly.
Workshop and On-Site, Whatever Works for You
Mitchell operates a physical workshop at Unit 2/23 Jannali Rd, Dubbo, NSW 2830, open Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For clients whose equipment can't be moved or who can't afford downtime, mobile and on-site servicing is available across Central Western NSW. If something breaks down outside business hours, 24-hour emergency assistance is on hand. Pricing is competitive for the Central Western NSW market.
Straight Talking, Solid Work
Mitchell tells you what's wrong and what it will cost before he starts. If something unexpected turns up mid-job, he'll ring and explain it rather than just getting on with it. He doesn't pad jobs or push work you don't need, and his pricing reflects running a Dubbo-based business, not a capital-city operation. Over 10+ years he's built his reputation across the region simply by being straight with the people he works for.
