Questions

Mobile welding FAQ

Is there a minimum charge for mobile welding?

There can be. Berto's Welding in Burnaby books mobile welding with a 4 hour minimum and quotes the price per job. Ask Richmond welders about their minimum and travel.

What should I have ready before the welder arrives?

Send photos, the address and access details. Ask what space, power and site preparation the welder needs.

Can I book urgent work?

Ask about current availability and any extra charge before booking. Explain the breakdown and whether the equipment can be made safe for work.

Good to know

  • The posted minimum is from Burnaby. Ask each Richmond welder about travel and the call-out minimum.
  • Clear access for the truck and agree on site preparation before arrival.
