About Our Boat Propeller Shaft Welding Service in Greenwich
Boat Propeller Shaft Welding Greenwich is a specialist on-site marine welding service for boat owners and commercial vessels who need propeller shaft repairs done properly and without delay. We handle the real-world marine welding jobs: cracked shafts, bent flanges, coupling failures, and metalwork that cannot be removed from the vessel easily.
We arrive fully equipped, assess the shaft condition, protect your boat and surrounding area, and complete the welding to a marine-grade standard. If something is unsafe, too far damaged, or not practical to repair, we will advise clearly. If it can be repaired properly, we do it with correct preparation and welding process—not a rushed patch that fails at sea.
For Greenwich boat owners, the main advantage is straightforward: you avoid costly vessel haul-outs and downtime. We come to your dock, marina berth or riverside location so repairs can be done quickly and effectively.
What Is Mobile Welding in Greenwich?
Mobile welding means welding carried out at your location using portable equipment, tools and consumables. For boat propeller shafts, this is essential when the shaft or flange cannot be easily removed or when vessel haul-out is impractical or costly.
Our mobile welding service in Greenwich covers repairs and fabrication for leisure boats, commercial vessels and workboats. If you have engineering drawings or specifications, we can work to those. If not, we often work from clear photos and measurements, then confirm on arrival.
- ✓ On-site welding at docks, marinas, boatyards & riverside locations
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding options depending on shaft material
- ✓ Ideal for propeller shafts, flanges, couplings, brackets and repairs
- ✓ Helps reduce downtime—no need for vessel haul-out or workshop delays
- ✓ Greenwich and surrounding South East London riverfront coverage
Simple rule: If the shaft or metalwork is fixed or difficult to move, mobile welding is usually the best solution.

We weld on-site so your vessel is back in service faster, avoiding long workshop waits or haul-out bookings.

No drama: tell us where the boat is moored, what the issue is, and what needs doing. We will tell you the quickest, safest route to get it fixed.
