Mobile welding and structural steel repair, dispatched to your site

Not every steel problem is a construction project. Sometimes a beam is damaged, a railing is loose, a platform is corroding or an inspector left a correction notice, and you need a qualified welder on site quickly.

Repair work backed by a real shop

Plenty of operations offer mobile welding. What is less common is a mobile crew backed by a fabrication shop that can make the replacement member, an engineering relationship that can confirm the repair is adequate, and thirty years of experience with how Southern California buildings actually fail.

That combination matters when a repair turns out to be bigger than it looked. We can fabricate a replacement section, coordinate a structural evaluation and complete the work without handing you off to another contractor mid problem.

What we repair

Vehicle impact damage to columns, bollards and guard systems. Corroded beams, connections and base plates in coastal and wash down environments. Cracked welds and fatigued connections. Loose or failing handrails and guardrails. Damaged stair treads and stringers. Overloaded or deflected platforms and mezzanines. Failed equipment supports and dunnage.

We also perform field modification work, which is its own category. Adding a penetration through an existing beam, relocating a support, cutting in a new opening or adapting an existing structure to new equipment all require confirmation that the modification does not compromise the member, and then careful execution.

For property managers and facility teams

Building owners, property managers and facility directors often need a steel contractor who responds without a lengthy procurement cycle. A loose guardrail on a stairwell is a liability today, not next quarter. We are set up to evaluate, price and correct that kind of condition quickly, with documentation you can put in a file.

Questions

About mobile welding and steel repair

How quickly can you get to a site?

Safety related conditions and anything blocking access or occupancy get priority scheduling. Call the shop, describe the condition and we will tell you honestly when we can be there rather than promising a time we cannot hold.

Do repairs need engineering?

It depends on whether the member is structural and whether capacity is in question. Cosmetic and non structural repairs generally do not. Anything affecting a load carrying member usually should be reviewed, and we will tell you when we think that is the case rather than welding first and hoping.

Can you work in an occupied restaurant or store?

Yes. Hot work in occupied spaces requires permitting, containment, fire watch and often off hours scheduling. We plan for all of it, which is why we ask about the operating environment before quoting.
