Mobile Welding & Fabrication in Dover, DE
Dover is about 23 miles, or a 35-minute drive, down Route 1 from our Townsend shop, and it's a regular stop for our mobile welding rig. As the capital and the heart of Kent County, Dover keeps us busy with everything from farm equipment on the outskirts of town to commercial and event work in the city.
A Dover Job From Our Gallery
One of our favorite Dover call-outs was an on-site aluminum repair of stage trussing at the Firefly music festival. Aluminum truss is tricky to weld well, the show had a schedule to keep, and the repair had to be done right there on the grounds. That's exactly the kind of job mobile welding is for. You can see it in our gallery.
What We Do in and Around Dover
Commercial and industrial: plant equipment, racks, hoppers, conveyors and shutdown repairs. Rick has fabricated galvanized nitrogen bottle racks for utility substations and stainless repairs in commercial kitchens.
Farms across Kent County: tractors, implements, wagons, feeders and farm gates, fixed in the field. See Heavy Equipment Repair.
Trucks and trailers: DOT repairs, truck beds, hitches and trailer frames. See Trailer Repair.
Event and staging equipment: aluminum truss, stands and rigging hardware.
Homes: railings, gates and fences (see Gates, Fences & Railings) and cast iron stove repair (see Cast Iron Repair).
We also work further south in Kent County. One example is welding sections of underground steel casement pipe in Milford.
Aluminum and Stainless, On Site
A lot of welders only do steel. Rick is a certified welder who welds aluminum and stainless on site regularly, and a manufacturer chose him as its on-site repair specialist. If your repair is in an awkward material or an awkward spot, give us a call.
Planning Your Repair
Since Dover is a bit of a drive, a couple of photos and the address up front let us bring the right material and get it done in one trip. For smaller parts, the shop drop-off is always an option.
Hours
Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Weekends by appointment.
Since we often work on site, please call to confirm a drop-off time before coming by.
