Why Mobile Steel Welding Matters for Chelsea Customers
In Chelsea, the “real cost” of steel welding often lies beyond the weld itself — it’s the time, disruption, and logistics involved. Removing heavy steelwork or vehicles for workshop repairs can increase costs dramatically. Mobile steel welding in Chelsea keeps the work on-site, avoiding recovery vehicles, extra labour, and long delays.
Whether it’s a snapped hinge on a driveway gate, a handrail that’s unsafe, an RSJ connection required before building control inspection, or an armoured vehicle chassis crack discovered urgently — on-site welding is usually the quickest way to control both time and budget.
Repairs are completed on-site, eliminating days of waiting for workshop slots or transport. This is crucial for businesses, landlords, and sites needing swift resolutions.
You pay for the job and time on site — no hidden extras like transport, disassembly, storage, or multiple visits. We clarify cost drivers upfront so you can plan accurately.
We often work around access restrictions, delivery windows, and trading hours. Evening and weekend bookings are available by arrangement, with clear pricing beforehand.
What’s Involved in Booking Steel Welding in Chelsea
Booking is straightforward and focused on cost clarity. Provide a few details, and we’ll confirm a likely price range or fixed quote, plus availability — before attending your property, site, shop, or yard.
Send Job Details
Call 07700161796 or message with photos. Include postcode, access notes (stairs/parking/rear garden), and what needs welding (gate, railing, beam, shutter, trailer, armoured vehicle, plant, etc.). Steel thickness or section size helps.
Receive a Clear Quote
We explain what’s included and cost factors: preparation, thickness, reinforcement plates, finishing, and time needed. Many jobs get a guide price immediately; larger work may require photos/drawings and a quick site visit.
We Attend & Weld On-Site
The welder arrives with tools and consumables, sets up safely, protects nearby surfaces (glass/paint/vehicles), and completes the welding. Reinforcement options are discussed before implementation to keep you in control.
Final Checks & Payment
We inspect the weld with you, confirm security, and tidy the area. Payment is normally due on completion. Optional finishing (primer/paint) is agreed before starting.
Your Steel Welding Job at a Glance
How Long Do Steel Welding Jobs Take?
Small Repairs
Minor repairs like hinge welding, bracket reinforcement, or small crack fixes often complete within an hour. Time depends on preparation (cleaning/grinding) and access to the weld area.
Medium Structural & Gate Work
Typical gate or railing repairs, handrail strengthening, or smaller structural connections usually take a few hours. This includes setup, protection of nearby surfaces, welding, and tidy grinding where agreed.
Larger Site & Industrial Work
Multiple weld locations, thick steel, armoured vehicle welding, plant repairs, or site packages can take half a day or more. Day-rate packages often provide better value than stacking hourly charges.

How Steel Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely in Chelsea
On-site steel welding requires careful planning, protection, and awareness of surroundings — especially in Chelsea where properties often have delicate finishes, parked vehicles, glass balustrades, and restricted access. Every job begins with a thorough site-specific safety check before welding starts.
We take sensible precautions to protect people, property, and nearby finishes. This applies equally whether working at a private home, retail unit, communal residential block, or industrial yard.
Steel Welding Safety Checklist
- ✓ Initial risk assessment of the work area
- ✓ Protection of nearby glass, paintwork and vehicles
- ✓ Fire-resistant screens used where required
- ✓ Fire extinguisher and fire watch during and after welding
- ✓ Proper earthing, lead routing and cable management
- ✓ PPE including helmet, gloves, jacket and eye protection
- ✓ Final inspection and tidy-up before leaving site
If any safety or access issue would significantly affect job time or cost, this is discussed before work starts — keeping you in control of risk and budget.

5. What metals can you weld?
Most jobs involve mild steel/structural steel. Some stainless steel and aluminium work may be possible depending on the job and access. If unsure, photos usually help us identify the metal.
6. Do I need to provide power?
If a standard 240V supply is nearby, it reduces setup time. For some jobs, we can work with our own equipment — please advise what’s available for accurate pricing.
7. Can you weld outdoors in Chelsea?
Yes, outdoor welding is common for gates, railings and external steelwork. Weather and safety conditions matter — heavy rain or wind can affect safety and quality.

Photos are the quickest way to get a realistic budget figure. We can often provide a guide price from clear photos plus postcode, then confirm on-site inspection once attending.
9. Do you supply small materials like plates and brackets?
Yes — we can supply small plates, flat bar and brackets as part of the job. Larger steel sections may need ordering in advance, which we’ll discuss before booking.

Some armoured vehicle chassis repairs may be possible, but only where safe and practical. Severe corrosion or unsafe areas may be declined — we’ll be honest about what’s worth doing.
11. How do I prepare for a steel welding visit?
Clear the work area, move flammable items, and ensure reasonable access for parking and equipment transport. This saves time and money.

Small repairs can take under an hour, while larger gate, railing or structural work may take several hours. We provide time estimates before starting to keep your schedule and budget predictable.

We offer basic priming or simple protective coats as options for some jobs. Full decorative finishing is usually handled separately, but we advise on best value.
