About Our Steel Frame Welding Service in Manchester

Steel Frame Welding Manchester is a practical, down-to-earth mobile welding service built around one simple idea: you shouldn’t have to move heavy steelwork across town to get it welded or repaired. I come to your site, set up safely, and weld the steel frame or structure where it stands—whether in a driveway, yard, workshop, construction site, or back garden.

Over the years I’ve worked on everything from small domestic metalwork (gates, railings, brackets) through to complex site steelwork and light industrial repairs. I’m experienced with tight access, busy streets, awkward angles, and “can you just make it work” situations. If there’s a sensible solution, I’ll find it and explain it clearly.

Customers appreciate dealing directly with the person doing the welding. No call centres, no confusing handovers—just straightforward advice, fair pricing, and tidy, professional work.

On-site welding keeps projects moving—no waiting for transport, no workshop queues, no extra handling.

Cost Effective

Repairing on location can save on lifting gear, removal labour, and recovery vehicles—especially for bulky steelwork.

Convenient & Flexible

Evenings and weekends can be arranged when possible, ideal for busy trades and working households.

Better Practical Solutions

Seeing the job in place often allows smarter fixes—adding reinforcing plates or adjusting bracket designs to prevent future failures.

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 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?

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 steel 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 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.

14. Are you insured?

Yes, public liability insurance is in place for mobile steel frame 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.
