We cover Greenwich plus nearby areas including Blackheath, Deptford, Charlton, Woolwich and much of South East London. If you’re outside that, ask and we’ll confirm.
3. Can you weld drive shafts for armoured vehicles?
Yes. We have experience welding armoured vehicle drive shafts and components on-site, ensuring security and durability.
4. Do you offer emergency or same-day welding?
Where availability allows, yes. Call 07700161796 with photos and postcode and we’ll tell you honestly if we can attend quickly.
5. What metals can you weld?
Most jobs involve mild steel or structural steel. Stainless steel and aluminium can be possible depending on the job, access, and preparation required.
6. Do I need to provide power?
If you have a standard 240V supply, that helps. Otherwise, we can often work with mobile power sources depending on the job—just let us know what’s available.
7. Can you weld outdoors in Greenwich?
Yes, but conditions matter. Strong wind and heavy rain can affect safety and weld quality, so we may need to screen the area or rearrange if conditions are poor.
8. Can you quote from photos?
Often, yes. Clear photos plus location and a brief description usually give enough to provide a reliable price. Final confirmation is always on inspection.
9. Do you supply plates, brackets or small steel?
Yes—common plates and small sections can be supplied as part of the job. For larger steel sections we may need notice to order in.
10. Can you weld vehicle chassis or drive shafts for MOT?
We can assess and sometimes repair, but only where it’s safe and sensible. If corrosion is extensive, patching is often not the right answer.
11. How should I prepare for your visit?
Clear access to the repair area, move flammables away, and if possible move cars away from sparks. If it’s a yard/site job, tell us any site rules.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can be done in under 90 minutes. Typical shaft or component jobs often take 2–4 hours. Larger site work can take half a day or more.

Yes, by arrangement. Some evening/weekend work may carry a premium depending on the time and urgency.
14. Are you insured?
Yes, public liability cover is in place for on-site welding and fabrication work. Details can be provided upon request.
15. Will welding damage nearby glass or paintwork?
Sparks can damage surfaces. We protect areas where possible, but you should move vehicles and valuables if you can. It avoids problems.
16. Can you paint after welding?
We can apply basic primer/paint to the welded area as an optional extra, but full decorative finishing is usually done after by you or a decorator.
17. Do you provide paperwork for structural jobs?
We can confirm what welding work was carried out, but structural approval and compliance remains with your engineer and building control.
18. What payment methods do you accept?
Bank transfer is preferred. Other standard methods can be discussed. Payment is usually due on completion.
19. Can you quote in person first?
For most jobs, photos and details are enough. For larger or complex work, a short site visit can be arranged before committing.
