Frequently Asked Questions – MOT Fail Welding Repairs Lewisham
1. How much do MOT fail welding repairs in Lewisham cost?
Local Lewisham call-outs typically start from around £120 for small, straightforward repairs. Larger or more complex welding is priced based on time on-site, materials, access and urgency – we always confirm costs with you before we begin.
2. What areas do you cover?
We’re based in Lewisham SE13 and cover Lewisham, Catford, Deptford, Greenwich, Blackheath, Brockley and much of South East London and North Kent. If you’re just outside this area, get in touch and we’ll let you know if we can attend.
3. Can you weld vehicle chassis for MOT?
Yes, we specialise in MOT fail welding repairs on vehicle chassis and trailers, but only where it’s safe and practical. We assess the corrosion and surrounding metal first and may decline the job if a safe repair isn’t possible.
4. Do you offer emergency or same-day welding?
Where our schedule allows, yes. Call 07700161796 with your location and job details, and we’ll confirm the earliest slot and any additional emergency call-out rate if it’s outside normal hours.
5. What metals can you weld?
We mainly weld mild and structural steel. Depending on access and the type of job, we can also weld stainless steel and aluminium – for example, some railings, furniture and vehicle parts.
6. Do I need to provide power?
Standard 240V power on-site is helpful, but not essential. We can bring our own generator – just let us know in advance so we can plan the set-up and quote correctly.
7. Can you weld outdoors?
Yes, we often weld outside, but we need safe conditions. Heavy rain and strong winds can affect weld quality and safety, so we may advise rescheduling or using shelters where possible.
8. Can you work from my photos?
Photos and short videos are extremely useful for giving a guide price, planning access and seeing the condition of the metalwork. Final pricing and method may still depend on what we find when we arrive.
9. Do you provide materials like plates and brackets?
Yes. We can supply plates, flat bar and small sections as part of the job. Larger steel sections or specialist items may need to be ordered in advance once we know the sizes.
10. Can you paint after welding?
We can apply primer or basic paint to welded areas if requested as an optional extra. Full decorative painting or colour-matching is usually better handled separately once the metal has cooled and been prepared.
