About Our Fabrication And Welding Service in Manchester

Fabrication And Welding Service Manchester is built on the principle that metalwork repairs and fabrication should come to you. No need to transport heavy or fixed metalwork across town; I arrive on-site, set up safely, and complete the work wherever it stands—be it a driveway, yard, workshop, site, or garden.

With extensive experience, I’ve handled everything from small domestic jobs like gates, railings, frames, and brackets, to larger site steelwork and light industrial fabrication. I’m familiar with tight access, busy urban locations, awkward angles, and “make it work” challenges. If there’s a practical solution, I’ll find it and explain it clearly.

Clients appreciate dealing directly with the fabricator and welder doing the work. No call centres, no confusing handovers—just straightforward advice, fair pricing, and high-quality workmanship.

What Is Mobile Welding in Manchester?

On-site mobile welding and fabrication work in Manchester

Mobile welding and fabrication means the fabricator and welder comes to your location. I bring all necessary equipment including welding machines, tools, consumables, and a generator if needed, allowing me to complete the job on-site without moving heavy or fixed metalwork.

In Manchester, many call-outs require urgent or time-sensitive welding: a gate that won’t close, a railing that’s unsafe, armoured vehicle repairs, or steelwork that must be joined before construction can continue. On-site welding avoids delays and keeps your project or property secure.

  • ✓ Welding and fabrication at homes, workshops, yards, and building sites
  • ✓ MIG, TIG, and stick (MMA) welding available depending on the job
  • ✓ Ideal for fixed, heavy, or awkward metalwork that can’t be moved
  • ✓ Saves time and transport costs compared to workshop fabrication
  • ✓ Local service covering Manchester & Greater Manchester
  • ✓ Suitable for repairs, reinforcements, modifications, and bespoke fabrication

Unsure if your metalwork can be repaired or requires replacement? Send photos and I’ll provide a realistic assessment. Safety and durability are always the priority.

How Fabrication and Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely

I use full PPE, keep a fire extinguisher nearby, and carefully manage cables and leads. If conditions aren’t safe (e.g., strong wind or rain outdoors), I will advise honestly and rearrange or find an alternative solution.

I cover Manchester and most of Greater Manchester including Salford, Trafford, Stockport, Oldham, Bolton and surrounding areas. If you’re unsure, call and I’ll confirm.

3. Can you do structural steel and RSJ welding?

Yes. I regularly weld and fabricate beams, posts and connection plates on refurbishments and extensions, ideally following engineer details where provided.

4. Do you offer emergency or same-day welding?

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

5. What metals can you weld and fabricate?

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

6. Do I need to provide power?

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?

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?

Yes—small plates, flat bar and brackets can often be supplied as part of the repair. Larger steel may need ordering in advance.

10. Can you weld armoured vehicle chassis for repairs?

Yes, I offer specialist welding and fabrication for armoured vehicles subject to inspection and safety. I assess each job carefully before proceeding.

11. How do I prepare for your visit?

Clear the area, move flammables, and ensure there’s space to park nearby. If it’s in a back garden or tight access, tell me in advance.

12. How long will you be on site?

Small repairs can be under an hour. Gate/structural work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger site jobs can be half day or full day.

Sparks can mark surfaces. I protect the area, but I always 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.

17. Do you issue paperwork for structural work?

I can confirm what welding and fabrication was carried out, but structural sign-off is always the responsibility of your engineer/building control.

18. What payment methods do you accept?

Bank transfer is preferred. Payment is normally due once the job is completed and you’re happy with the work.
