About Our Dock Welding Service in Greenwich
Dock Welding Greenwich is a specialised on-site welding service for dockside and marine metalwork that requires expert repair without moving heavy or fixed structures. We focus on real-world dockside challenges: corroded mooring brackets, cracked armoured vehicle frames, architectural metalwork on piers, and structural steelwork that cannot be transported easily.
We arrive fully equipped, assess the job carefully, protect the surrounding area, and deliver high-quality welds that last. If a repair is unsafe or uneconomical, we will advise honestly. Our goal is durable, professional dockside welding that keeps your operations running smoothly.
For Greenwich dock operators and businesses, the main advantage is avoiding costly transport and downtime. We come directly to your dock, yard, or vessel to complete the welding efficiently and safely.
What Is Mobile Welding in Greenwich?
Mobile welding means welding performed at your location using portable equipment, tools and consumables. This is essential when dockside structures, vessels, or armoured vehicles are too heavy or fixed to move to a workshop, or when moving them would cause excessive downtime or cost.
Our mobile dock welding service in Greenwich covers repairs and fabrication for dock operators, marine yards, commercial sites, and architectural metalwork. We can work from engineer drawings or, often, from clear photos and measurements, confirming details on arrival.
- ✓ On-site welding at docks, yards, vessels & construction sites
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding options depending on the job
- ✓ Ideal for dock gates, mooring brackets, armoured vehicle frames, architectural metalwork and repairs
- ✓ Helps reduce downtime—no workshop booking delays
- ✓ Greenwich and surrounding South East London coverage
Simple rule: If it’s heavy, fixed, or difficult to transport, mobile welding is usually the best solution.

Why Mobile Dock Welding Matters for Greenwich Customers
Transporting dock gates, steel frames, vessels or heavy parts to a workshop is time-consuming and costly. With mobile dock welding in Greenwich, we attend your dockside or yard and complete the repair on-site—saving you transport, recovery, disassembly and delays.
Whether it is a hinge that has torn out, a bracket that has cracked, or structural steelwork that needs welding to finish a dock project, a mobile welder gets it sorted without halting your operations.
We weld on-site so you are not stuck waiting on workshop bookings or recovery arrangements.
You avoid extra lifting, loading, transport and “strip it down first” labour that often costs more than the weld itself.
Daytime, evenings and weekend work can be arranged depending on availability and access conditions.
No drama: tell us where it is, what it is for, and what needs doing. We will tell you the quickest, safest route to get it fixed.
