About Our Metal Tubing Welder in Manchester
Metal Tubing Welder Manchester is a straightforward, reliable service built around one core principle: you shouldn’t have to transport heavy or fixed metal tubing to get expert welding. I come to you, set up safely, and weld the tubing where it stands—whether that’s a driveway, yard, workshop, construction site, or back garden.
With years of experience, I’ve worked on everything from delicate architectural tubing and handrails to armoured vehicle frames and light industrial repairs. I’m used to tight spaces, challenging access, and “make it work” requests. If there’s a practical solution, I’ll find it and explain it clearly.
Customers appreciate dealing directly with the welder doing the work. No call centres, no confusing handovers—just honest advice, fair pricing, and tidy workmanship.
What Is Mobile Welding in Manchester?
Mobile welding means the welder comes to your location with all necessary equipment. I bring welding machines, tools, leads, consumables, and a generator if needed—so the job can be completed on-site. This is ideal when metal tubing is too large, heavy, fixed in place, or inconvenient to transport.
In Manchester, many welding jobs are urgent: a damaged armoured vehicle frame, a bent architectural tubing handrail, a cracked trailer tubing, or structural tubing that must be joined before construction continues. On-site welding eliminates delays and keeps your project moving.
- ✓ Welding at homes, workshops, yards, and building sites
- ✓ TIG, MIG and stick (MMA) welding available depending on the tubing and job
- ✓ Perfect for fixed or heavy metal tubing that can’t be moved
- ✓ Saves time and transport costs compared to workshop welding
- ✓ Local mobile welder covering Manchester & Greater Manchester
- ✓ Suitable for repairs, reinforcement, modifications and new bracket fabrication
Unsure if your tubing can be repaired or needs replacing? Send a photo. I’ll provide a realistic assessment—because safety and durability are always the top priorities.

Why Mobile Welding Matters for Manchester Customers
Taking metal tubing to a workshop might seem straightforward—until you face a heavy armoured vehicle frame, fixed architectural tubing, or a trailer frame that can’t be moved safely. Mobile tubing welding in Manchester solves this by repairing it on-site.
This approach reduces downtime, eliminates costly recovery, and speeds up repairs. Builders stay on schedule, homeowners secure their properties faster, and businesses get equipment back in service without unnecessary delays.
On-site welding keeps projects moving—no waiting for transport, no workshop queues, no extra handling.
On-location repairs save on lifting gear, removal labour, and recovery vehicles—especially for bulky or fixed tubing.
Evenings and weekends can be arranged when possible, ideal for busy trades and working households.
Seeing the tubing in place allows smarter fixes—adding reinforcing plates or redesigning brackets to prevent future failure.

Sometimes, yes (depending on availability). Call 07700176109 with photos and your postcode and I’ll tell you the earliest realistic slot.
5. What metals can you weld?
Primarily mild/structural steel tubing. Stainless and aluminium tubing 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 is not always required. If needed, I can bring a generator—just let me know what’s available.
7. Can you weld outdoors?
Yes, provided conditions are safe. Heavy rain or strong wind can affect quality and safety—if weather is poor, we’ll rearrange.
8. Can you quote from photos?
Photos are the quickest way to get a guide price. Final cost depends on tubing condition once 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 vehicle chassis for MOT?
Sometimes, if suitable and safe. I inspect first and may decline if corrosion is extensive or if it’s not a safe repair.
11. How do I prepare for your visit?
Clear the area, move flammables, and ensure space to park nearby. If access is tight or in a back garden, please inform me in advance.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can take under an hour. Gate or structural tubing work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger jobs may require half or full days.

Yes, public liability insurance is in place for mobile welding work. Details can be provided on request.
15. 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 or 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 was carried out, but structural sign-off is always the responsibility of your engineer or 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.
