Questions

Welding FAQ

Do Richmond welders post their rates?

None we checked do. Berto's Welding in Burnaby books mobile welding with a 4 hour minimum and quotes the price per job. Send photos for your own quote.

Is a welder wage the customer rate?

No. Job Bank reports employee wages. A shop quote may also cover equipment, materials, overhead and travel.

Do I need a CWB certified fabricator?

For welded structures built to CSA S16, the fabricator must be CWB certified in Division 1 or 2. Ask what certification your repair needs.

Good to know

  • No Richmond shop we checked posts welding prices. Send photos of the break and the whole part to compare quotes.
  • Mobile work can have a minimum booking. Ask what it is and whether travel counts.
