What Is Mobile Welding in Manchester?
Mobile welding means I bring all welding equipment and materials directly to your balcony or property. This enables me to fabricate, repair or reinforce balcony metalwork on-site without the need to remove heavy or fixed components.

Whether it’s a loose handrail, a cracked support bracket, or a bespoke railing installation, I weld it where it stands.

Why Mobile Welding Matters for Manchester Balcony Customers
Taking balcony metalwork to a workshop can be impractical or impossible due to size, weight, or fixed installation. Mobile balcony welding in Manchester solves this by repairing or fabricating metalwork exactly where it’s installed.
This approach reduces downtime, avoids costly removal and reinstallation, and speeds up repairs. For builders and landlords, it keeps projects and maintenance on schedule. For homeowners, it means safer balconies without disruption.
Repairs are done in place, avoiding delays caused by dismantling or transporting metalwork.
On-site welding saves on crane hire, transport, and labour costs associated with moving balcony components.
Appointments can be arranged evenings or weekends to suit busy schedules and minimise disruption.
Seeing the balcony in situ allows tailored fixes like reinforcement plates or bracket redesigns to prevent future issues.

Sometimes, yes (depending on availability). Call 07700176109 with photos and your postcode and I’ll tell you the earliest realistic slot.

Most commonly mild/structural steel. Stainless steel and aluminium may be possible depending on the job, access and conditions—send a photo and I’ll advise.

Power on-site helps, but it’s not always required. If needed, I can bring a generator—just tell me what’s available.
7. Can you weld outdoors on balconies?
Yes, as long as conditions are safe. Heavy rain or strong wind can affect quality and safety—if weather is bad we’ll rearrange.
8. Can you quote from photos?
Photos are the quickest way to get a guide price. Final cost can depend on what the metal is like once I’m on-site (rust/thickness/access).
9. Do you supply plates and brackets for balcony repairs?
Yes—small plates, flat bar and brackets can often be supplied as part of the repair. Larger steel may need ordering in advance.
10. How do I prepare for your visit?
Clear the area, move flammables, and ensure there’s safe access and space to park nearby. If balcony access is tricky, please inform me in advance.

Small repairs can be under an hour. Balcony fabrication or structural work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger or commercial jobs can be half day or full day.

14. Will sparks damage paintwork or glass?
Sparks can mark surfaces. I protect the area, but I recommend moving vehicles and valuables where possible before welding starts.

Basic priming/paint can be added as an optional extra. Many customers prefer to paint later once everything is fully cooled and cleaned.
