Shabi Engineering

Shabi Engineering is based out of Mustafa Chawl on Reti Bunder Road. We are in the Govindwadi area of Dombivli, quite close to the Masjid. It’s a local neighborhood and everyone knows everyone. We do engineering work, mostly small-scale stuff and repairs. Our shop isn't very big. It's full of metal scraps, welding machines, and grease. It smells like iron and hard work most days. We started this because we liked fixing things and working with our hands. People bring us parts that are worn out or broken, and we try to get them working again. Sometimes we have to fabricate something new from scratch. It’s loud in the workshop when the grinders are going. We don't have a website that gets updated or a fancy logo on the door. Most people just walk in or call us because they heard about us from a neighbor or a friend. Reti Bunder Road can get quite muddy when it rains, but we stay open regardless. We’ve lived in Dombivli a long time, so we know the local problems and the people. We just try to be useful to the community. It’s not glamorous work, and our hands are usually dirty by the end of the shift. That’s just the way it goes here. We don't have many chairs for visitors, but there's always a bit of space to stand and talk about what needs fixing. We keep the machines running and that’s about it. It is honest work and we have been doing it for years now.
