About Our Tube Welding Services in Manchester
Tube Welding Services in Manchester is a practical, down-to-earth service built around one simple idea: you shouldn’t have to transport heavy tube metalwork across town to get it repaired. I come to your location, set up safely, and weld the tube metal where it stands—driveway, yard, workshop, site, or back garden.
Over the years I’ve worked on everything from small domestic tube jobs (gates, railings, tube frames, brackets) through to site tube steelwork and light industrial tube repairs. I’m used to 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 often tell me they appreciate dealing directly with the person doing the welding. No call centres, no confusing handovers—just straightforward advice, fair pricing, and tidy work.
What Is Mobile Tube Welding in Manchester?
Mobile tube welding means the welder comes to your location with all the necessary equipment. I bring the welding machine, tools, leads, consumables, and (when required) a generator—so the tube welding job can be done on-site. This is ideal when the tube metalwork is too large, heavy, fixed in place, or inconvenient to transport.
In Manchester, many tube welding call-outs are time-sensitive: a tube gate that won’t close, architectural tube frames needing reinforcement, a bracket snapped on a trailer chassis, or tube steelwork that must be joined before construction progresses. On-site tube welding cuts out delays and keeps your project moving.
- ✓ Tube welding at homes, workshops, yards and building sites
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick (MMA) tube welding available depending on the job
- ✓ Great for fixed or heavy tube items that can’t be moved
- ✓ Saves time and recovery costs versus taking tubework to a fabrication shop
- ✓ Local mobile tube welder covering Manchester & Greater Manchester
- ✓ Useful for tube repairs, reinforcement, modifications and new brackets
Unsure if your tube metalwork can be repaired or needs replacement? Send a photo. I’ll provide a realistic answer—because safety and durability are always top priorities.

Why Mobile Tube Welding Matters for Manchester Customers
Taking tube metalwork to a workshop sounds simple—until you’re dealing with a heavy tube gate, a fixed tube railing, a tube steel beam already installed, or a trailer chassis that can’t be towed safely. Mobile tube welding in Manchester saves you the headache by fixing it where it sits.
That means less downtime, fewer recovery costs, and faster repairs. For builders, it helps keep schedules on track. For homeowners, it means you can secure your property quickly. For businesses, it means equipment gets back into service without unnecessary delay.
On-site tube welding keeps projects moving—no waiting for transport, no workshop queues, no extra handling.
Repairing tube metalwork on location can save on lifting gear, removal labour, and recovery vehicles—especially for bulky tube items.
Evenings and weekends can be arranged when possible, which is ideal for busy trades and working households.
Seeing the tube job in place often allows a smarter fix—adding a reinforcing plate or changing the bracket design to stop it failing again.

Most commonly mild/structural tube steel. Stainless and aluminium tube 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 tube 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 tube 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 tube repairs can be under an hour. Gate/structural tube work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger site jobs can be half day or full day.

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.

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 tube 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.
