Whether it’s structural steel, piping systems, custom fabrication, or emergency repairs, our knowledge of different welding methods allows us to choose the best approach for your project.


Our Core Welding Techniques

MIG Welding (Gas Metal Arc Welding – GMAW)

MIG welding is ideal for speed and efficiency. It produces clean welds with minimal spatter, making it a great choice for both thick and thin materials — especially steel and aluminum. We use MIG welding in many residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

  • Fast and versatile

  • Clean finish

  • Ideal for large-scale projects and production work


TIG Welding (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding – GTAW)

TIG welding is known for its precision and control, especially on thin metals and non-ferrous materials like stainless steel and aluminum. It’s commonly used in projects that require a clean, polished appearance and tight tolerances.

  • Extremely precise

  • Excellent for stainless steel, aluminum, and ornamental metalwork

  • Perfect for custom and detailed projects


Stick Welding (Shielded Metal Arc Welding – SMAW)

Stick welding is highly durable and versatile, especially outdoors or in tough environments. It’s ideal for heavy-duty repairs, structural components, and projects where portability and strength matter most.

  • Great for outdoor and field work

  • Works well on dirty or rusty metals

  • Reliable for infrastructure, farm equipment, and industrial repairs


Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW)

Similar to MIG but better suited for heavy materials and outdoor conditions. Flux-cored welding is commonly used in structural welding and large fabrication projects where strength and speed are essential.

  • Excellent penetration for thick materials

  • Effective in windy or outdoor settings

  • Often used in structural steel and heavy fabrication


Choosing the Right Method for the Job

We assess each project’s requirements — from material type and thickness to location and load-bearing needs — and match it with the most effective welding technique. The result is a strong, dependable weld that meets or exceeds expectations.


Trusted Across All Applications

Our welding expertise supports a wide range of services, including:

  • Structural steel and framing

  • Pipe and conduit welding

  • Custom gates, fences, and railings

  • Equipment and machinery repair
