How Dock Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely
Welding involves heat, sparks and fumes, so safety is never an afterthought. We assess the dockside area, protect surrounding surfaces and confirm safe working conditions before we start.
We use correct PPE, screens where required, safe cable management and good site practice. The goal is simple: strong welds, tidy finish, and everything around the work area still looking like it did before (except now it’s not broken).

- ✓ Site risk assessment before starting work

Local call-outs typically start from around £120 for smaller dockside repairs. Larger or more complex work is priced based on time, access, materials and preparation.
2. What areas do you cover?
We’re based around Hammersmith (W6) and cover Fulham, Shepherd’s Bush, Chiswick, Kensington and much of West London docks. If you’re slightly outside the area, ask and we’ll confirm availability.
3. Can you do structural dock steel and RSJ welding?
Yes. We regularly weld dock RSJs, posts, connection plates and steelwork on-site, working from structural engineer details where provided.

Where possible, yes. Call 07700161796 with your photos and details and we’ll tell you the earliest slot available and any emergency call-out cost.
5. What metals can you weld?
We mainly weld mild and structural steel. In suitable situations we can also weld stainless and aluminium depending on the job type, access and prep required.
6. Do I need to provide power?
Having 240V power available helps, but we can bring a generator if required. Let us know what’s available and where the work is located.
7. Can you weld outdoors at docks?
Yes, most of our work is outdoors. We just need safe conditions – heavy rain and strong wind can affect quality and safety (and nobody wants a weld that was made while battling a hurricane).
8. Can you work from my photos?
Photos are perfect for giving a guide price and checking access. Final pricing may be confirmed once we inspect the job on arrival.
9. Do you supply plates and brackets?
Yes. We can supply common plates, flat bar and reinforcement pieces as part of the job. Larger steel sections may need ordering in advance.
10. Can you weld armoured vehicle chassis for MOT?
We can often repair armoured vehicle chassis sections, but only where it’s safe and practical. We’ll inspect first and may decline if corrosion is too severe.
11. How do I prepare for your visit?
Clear access to the work area, remove flammables, and if possible move vehicles and valuables nearby. Good access = faster job = happier wallet.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can take under an hour. Structural or multi-weld jobs can take half a day or longer. We’ll give a realistic estimate before starting.
13. Do you work evenings or weekends?
Yes, evening and weekend bookings can often be arranged, especially for urgent dock welding work. These may carry a small premium depending on timing.
14. Are you insured?
Yes, we carry public liability insurance for on-site dock welding and fabrication work. Details can be provided on request.
15. Will welding damage nearby glass or paint?
Sparks can damage glass and paintwork, so we protect surrounding areas where possible. Please move vehicles and fragile items if you can.
16. Can you paint after welding?
We can apply basic primer or paint as an optional extra where appropriate. Full decorative painting is usually best done later.
17. Do you issue paperwork for structural dock jobs?
We can confirm the welding work carried out, but structural sign-off remains the responsibility of your engineer and building control.
18. What payment methods do you accept?
Bank transfer is preferred. Other standard options can be discussed. Payment is normally due on completion once you’re happy with the work.
19. Can you come and quote in person first?
For many jobs, photos and details are enough. For larger or more complex work, we can arrange a brief site visit if needed.

21. Do you reinforce weak points so it doesn’t crack again?
Yes, where suitable we can add reinforcement plates, gussets or improved brackets. Fixing the symptom is good; fixing the cause is better.

Yes. We often repair hinges, frames, brackets and security grilles for commercial premises across Hammersmith docks and West London.
