Both MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding are popular techniques, but they have some key differences:

  • Process: MIG welding uses a continuously fed consumable electrode wire, while TIG welding uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode and a separate filler metal rod if needed.

Applications: MIG welding is faster and more efficient, making it ideal for thicker materials like steel welding. TIG welding offers more control and a cleaner finish, perfect for thin materials and intricate work.

Yes, while welding itself might leave a visible seam, we offer various techniques to achieve a polished look:

  • Grinding And Polishing: Our team can smooth out the weld bead for a seamless appearance.

Powder Coating: This finishing technique can provide a smooth, durable, and visually appealing surface over the weld area.

Mobile welding services offer several advantages:

  • Convenience: We bring the welding expertise directly to your location, eliminating the need to transport your project.
  • Reduced Costs: In some cases, mobile welding can be more cost-effective than transporting large projects to a workshop.

On-Site Solutions: Ideal for situations where the project is already assembled or too bulky for movement.
