Walpett Engineering | 3 WalpettEngineering is a privately-owned steel fabrication company that has been servicing Canberra and the surrounding areas for more than half a century. Based out of modern facilities on a 10,000 square-metre site, over the years Walpett has built an enduring reputation for delivering high quality steel solutions to satisfied clients. “Walpett has a strong name for quality products,” says Lawson Flinn, General Manager of the company. “Clients know that when Walpett is awarded the contract, they are going to get a quality and value-for-dollar project, and they’re going to get it in on time.” Walpettstarted building their reputation all the way back in the mid-1950s, when the company was founded by partners Wally and Peter – whose names, when combined, form the company title. Lawson’s father Doug Flinnhad an early relationship with the two of them, and he did some minor work by their sidebefore moving to another state. He soon returned, though, at which point he joined the crew full-time before becoming a Director in 1969. Because he was quite a bit younger than Wally and Peter,it wasn’t long until they retired and he took over their shares. Under Doug’s leadership, Walpett Engineering evolved from a small metalwork fabricator into a large one, and moved into structural steel
