Rakesh Engineering Work

Rakesh Engineering Work is a small workshop in Goregaon East. We are in Unit No. 5 of the Murli Compound, which is part of Mere Chawl. It’s a classic Mumbai workspace. There’s not much room to move around once the machines are in place. We mostly do engineering jobs, fixing parts and making small metal components. The floor is always a bit oily, and there are metal shavings everywhere. We don't have an air conditioner, just a few ceiling fans that move the hot air around. It’s a noisy neighborhood with other workshops and small factories all around us. We've been in this compound for years. Most of our customers are locals who bring in broken parts for us to weld or lathe. We don't have a fancy website or any brochures. If you need something fixed, you just come by and talk to Rakesh or one of the guys. We work until late most nights because there’s always one more job to finish. It’s honest work that leaves your clothes dirty at the end of the day. We take pride in knowing how to handle the old machines. It’s a bit of a squeeze when we have a big project, but we make it work somehow.
