I cover Manchester and most of Greater Manchester including Salford, Trafford, Stockport, Oldham, Bolton and surrounding areas. If unsure, call and I’ll confirm.
3. Can you weld structural stair rails and balustrades?
Yes. I regularly weld stair stringers, 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 diary). Call 07700176109 with photos and your postcode and I’ll advise on the earliest realistic slot.
5. What metals can you weld?
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 vehicle chassis for MOT?
Sometimes, if it’s suitable and safe. I’ll 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 there’s space to park nearby. If it’s in a stairwell or tight access, tell me in advance.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can be under an hour. Stair rail and structural work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger site jobs can be half day or full day.
13. Do you work evenings or weekends?
Often yes, by arrangement. Out-of-hours slots can carry a small premium depending on the job and travel.
14. Are you insured?
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 always recommend moving vehicles and valuables where possible before welding starts.
16. Can you paint after welding?
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 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.
19. Can you quote in person first?
Many jobs can be priced from photos. For larger or complicated work, a short site visit can be arranged.
