We use MIG, TIG and stick (MMA) welding depending on the metal type and thickness, ensuring strong, clean welds for handrails and metalwork.

Standard 240V power is helpful but not essential. We can bring our own generator – just let us know in advance to plan accordingly.

7. Can welding be done outdoors?

Yes, we often weld outside but need safe, dry conditions. Heavy rain or strong winds can affect weld quality and safety, so we may advise rescheduling or using temporary shelters.

8. Can you provide a quote from photos?

Photos and videos are very helpful for initial quotes and planning. Final pricing and method may depend on site inspection when we arrive.

9. Do you supply materials like plates and brackets?

Yes, we can supply common plates, flat bars and brackets as part of the job. Larger or specialist steel sections may need ordering in advance.

Sparks can mark glass and paintwork if uncontrolled. We protect surrounding areas and ask clients to move vehicles and valuables away before welding.

We can apply primer or basic paint as an optional extra. Full decorative painting or colour matching is better done separately once metal has cooled and been prepared.
