Mobile Welder in Barnet – On-Site Welding & Metal Repairs
Local, Friendly One-Man Mobile Welding Across Barnet From £120
Looking for a mobile welder in Barnet who turns up, talks straight, and gets the job done properly? I’m a local one-man welder covering Barnet (EN5) and the wider North London area. I come to you with a fully equipped welding van so you don’t have to drag heavy gates, steel, plant or trailers anywhere.
Whether it’s a cracked gate hinge, a snapped bracket, a steel beam connection on a build, or a repair that’s holding up your day, I’ll take a practical approach: prep it right, weld it strong, and leave it tidy. I regularly work with mild steel and structural steel, and can handle MIG, stick (MMA), and suitable TIG work depending on the job and access.
If you can send a couple of photos and your postcode, I can usually give a quick guide price before I come out. For bigger or structural work, I’ll ask a few simple questions so everything is safe and done the right way.

Tip: the fastest way to price accurately is 2–3 photos + your postcode + a quick note on thickness (even “about 3mm / 5mm / 10mm” helps).
Mobile Welder Barnet – Pricing Guide
Every job is a little different, but I keep pricing simple and fair. Most mobile welding in Barnet is priced around travel/time on site, preparation needed (cleaning/grinding), metal thickness, access, and whether materials need supplying.
If you send photos, I’ll tell you honestly what I think it will cost and what options you’ve got (repair vs reinforce vs replace). No hard sell — just a clear plan so you can decide.
Small Repairs & Light Welding
- Gate hinges, brackets, frames & handrails
- Cracks on small steelwork and light section repairs
- Quick reinforcement plates where needed
- Includes travel in Barnet area & basic consumables
- Great for “can you just fix this today?” jobs
Structural & Site Welding Package
- RSJs, beams, posts, stair frames & connections
- On-site welding support for builders & contractors
- MIG / MMA welding (generator support if required)
- Best for extensions, openings and steel installs
- Includes set-up time and standard consumables
Heavy, Commercial & Industrial Welding
- Plant, machinery, trailers, skips & heavy steel
- Multiple welds, awkward access, or thicker sections
- Day-rate option for larger sites and busy yards
- Can work to drawings/photos and site details
- Priced sensibly based on scope and time required
Optional Extras (Only If You Need Them)
- Emergency / out-of-hours call-out (when available)
- Supplying steel plate, flat bar, box section (pre-agreed)
- Grinding, smoothing and making it paint-ready
- Basic primer/paint touch-up to protect fresh welds
- Fabricating simple brackets, tabs, gussets and strengthening plates
Good to know: welding often fails because the prep is rushed. I’ll spend time cleaning the area properly so the weld bites into solid metal — that’s what makes repairs last.
About Our Mobile Welder in Barnet
Hi — I’m your local mobile welder in Barnet. I’m not a big call-centre operation; it’s just me, my van, and the tools to fix your metalwork properly. That means you speak to the person doing the job, and you get straightforward answers from the start.
I’ve worked on everything from domestic gate repairs and handrails to steelwork support for builders, plus trailers, brackets, skips and general fabrication. My approach is simple: turn up on time, protect your property, weld it strong, and leave the area tidy.
Based around Barnet, I cover most of North London with flexible time slots for homeowners, landlords and trades — including evenings/weekends when it helps keep your project moving.
What Is Mobile Welding in Barnet?
Mobile welding is exactly what it sounds like: instead of you transporting heavy metalwork to a workshop, I bring the welding set-up to your address — driveway, garden, building site, yard, or unit.
For Barnet customers, this is a massive advantage. Gates, railings, steel beams, trailers and plant often can’t be moved easily (or moving them costs more than the repair). With on-site welding, we fix it where it sits and get you back to normal quicker.
If you’ve got drawings from a builder/engineer, I can weld to those details. If it’s a simple repair, photos and measurements usually do the job.
- ✓ Welding at homes, sites, shops, yards & industrial units
- ✓ MIG, stick (MMA) and suitable TIG work where required
- ✓ Ideal for heavy items that are fixed in place
- ✓ Great for urgent repairs when something has failed
- ✓ Barnet-based welder covering EN5 and nearby areas
Why Choose Our Mobile Welder in Barnet?
If you want a local, friendly one-man welder who treats your job like it matters, you’re in the right place. I keep things simple: good communication, proper prep, strong welds, and a tidy finish. No fuss, no drama.
Proper Mobile Set-Up
I come ready. That means welding gear, grinders, clamps, cutting tools, and the bits needed to do the job safely on-site without you chasing around.
Practical Problem Solving
Some jobs aren’t “one weld and done”. I look at why it failed, then reinforce it so it doesn’t crack again next month.
Fast, Realistic Time Slots
When it’s urgent, I’ll do my best to fit you in. If I can’t, I’ll tell you straight rather than messing you about.
Fair Pricing
You’ll get a clear guide price based on photos and details. If anything changes on inspection, we agree it before work starts.
Homeowners, Landlords & Trades
From garden gates to structural steel support on site — I work with homeowners, builders, property managers and small businesses.
Local to Barnet
Being local helps with booking, travel time and flexibility. It also means reputation matters — I want you recommending me.
What I Usually Need From You (So I Can Price Fast)
- 2–4 photos from different angles
- Your postcode (Barnet / EN5 or nearby)
- What it is (gate/railing/beam/trailer/plant)
- Approx metal thickness (even a guess helps)
- Any access issues (tight alley, upstairs balcony, etc.)
Types of Mobile Welding Services in Barnet
Below are the most common jobs I get called out for in Barnet and North London. If your job isn’t listed, still ask — most steel repairs and fabrication can be handled with a mobile setup.
Structural Steel & RSJ Welding
On-site welding support for beams, posts, plates and connections used on extensions, knock-throughs and structural alterations.
- • Beam-to-beam and beam-to-post connections
- • Plates, cleats, gussets and stiffeners
- • Welding to engineer / builder details (where provided)
- • Practical site support to keep builds moving
Gates, Railings & Metalwork Repairs
When a gate drops, a hinge cracks, or railings loosen — I repair it where it stands, then reinforce weak points so it stays solid.
- • Hinges, latches, brackets and cracked joints
- • Reinforcement plates and strengthening bars
- • Handrail repairs for safety and stability
- • Ideal for landlords and homeowners
Vehicles, Trailers & Plant Welding
Mobile welding for trailers, ramps, brackets, plant buckets and farm/yard equipment — the kind of repairs that stop work until it’s fixed.
- • Trailer frames, tow points, ramps and supports
- • Plant buckets, arms and wear plate repairs
- • Brackets and mounts for site equipment
- • Chassis repairs (subject to condition and safety)
Why Mobile Welding Matters for Barnet Customers
When metalwork breaks, the problem is rarely just the crack — it’s the hassle that comes after it. Transporting a heavy gate, a beam, or a trailer to a workshop costs time and money. With mobile welding in Barnet, I come to you, repair it on-site, and you get on with your day.
This is especially useful when you’ve got builders waiting, tenants calling, or equipment sitting idle. A solid on-site weld can save you days of downtime and the cost of removals.
On-site repairs mean you don’t lose half a day trying to move something heavy or awkward to transport.
Fixing it where it sits often avoids recovery trucks, dismantling, and re-fitting costs.
Flexible time slots help homeowners and trades fit repairs around work and site schedules.
My focus is not just making it “stick together”. It’s making it strong, safe, and durable — especially for gates, railings and anything load-bearing.
What’s Involved in Booking a Mobile Welder in Barnet
Booking a mobile welder should be simple. Here’s how it normally works with me — clear steps, clear communication, and no confusion.
Send the Details
Call 07700161796 or message with photos, your postcode, and what needs welding. If it’s urgent, tell me the deadline and I’ll advise the earliest possible slot.
Get a Clear Price
For many jobs, photos are enough to give a guide price. For bigger jobs, I’ll ask a couple of questions (thickness, access, any drawings) so we price it properly.
On-Site Welding & Repair
I arrive, check the area, protect nearby surfaces, then prep and weld. If reinforcement is needed, I’ll explain why and agree it with you before doing it.
Final Check & Sign-Off
We inspect the work together. I’ll tidy up the area and you only pay once you’re happy the job is done as agreed.
Your Mobile Welding Job at a Glance
How Long Do Mobile Welding Jobs Take?
Time depends on preparation and access. A “small job” can still take time if the metal is dirty, painted, or cracked through multiple points. I’d rather do it properly once than rush it twice.
Small Repairs
Typical for hinges, brackets, cracks on light steel, and small reinforcements when access is straightforward.
Medium Gate & Structural Work
Common for gate frames, rail sections, posts, plates, and smaller beam or frame connections.
Site / Industrial Work
Multiple weld points, heavy sections, plant repairs or awkward access can push jobs into half-day or day-rate territory.
Typical Job Timeline
When Is a Mobile Welder Needed in Barnet?
Most call-outs happen when something breaks at the worst time — right before a tenant viewing, during a building job, or when equipment is needed that day. These are common reasons people book a mobile welder in Barnet.
🏗️ Building & Renovation Work
Steel beams (RSJs), plates, posts or frame welding needed on extensions, openings, or site installs.
🚪 Broken Gates & Railings
Hinges cracking, gate frames sagging, handrails loosening — often a quick repair plus reinforcement solves it.
🚚 Trailer & Equipment Repairs
Cracked trailer frames, ramps, tow points, brackets, and general wear-and-tear that stops you working.
🏭 Industrial & Yard Fixes
Skips, bins, guards, racks and steelwork repairs in yards and units where moving items is impractical.
🏘️ Landlords & Managing Agents
Safety-critical repairs on communal gates, railings and metal stairs to keep properties secure and usable.
⚡ Urgent Safety Issues
Anything sharp, unstable, or dangerous that needs a quick fix before someone gets hurt or damage gets worse.
How Mobile Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely
Welding isn’t just “spark and go”. Heat, fumes, and flying sparks can cause damage if the area isn’t protected. I work safely and sensibly — especially around homes, cars, and finished surfaces.
Before welding, I’ll assess the surroundings, move or shield vulnerable items, and make sure the job is set up to avoid unnecessary risk. Safety is part of doing a professional job — not an optional extra.
Mobile Welding Safety Checklist
- ✓ Quick risk assessment before starting
- ✓ Suitable fire extinguisher available
- ✓ Protection for glass, paintwork, vehicles and floors
- ✓ Safe lead management and tidy set-up
- ✓ Proper PPE: helmet, gloves, jacket, eye protection
- ✓ Post-weld check and clean-up of debris
For outdoor welding, weather matters. Strong wind and rain can affect quality and safety, so I’ll always be honest if conditions mean it needs rescheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions – Mobile Welder Barnet
1. How much does a mobile welder in Barnet cost?
Most small local call-outs start from around £120. The final cost depends on travel time, prep required, metal thickness, access and how long the job takes.
2. What areas do you cover?
Primarily Barnet and nearby areas across North London (including High Barnet, New Barnet, Finchley, Cockfosters, Enfield and more). If you’re slightly outside the area, just ask.
3. Can you do structural steel and RSJ welding?
Yes — I regularly help with on-site steelwork including beams, posts, connection plates and reinforcement (especially during refurbishments and extensions). Work to engineer details where provided.
4. Do you offer same-day or emergency welding?
Where possible, yes. If it’s urgent, call 07366316938 with photos and your postcode and I’ll confirm the earliest slot.
5. What metals can you weld?
Most work is mild steel and structural steel. Depending on the job, access and requirements, stainless and aluminium may be possible too.
6. Do I need to provide power?
If 240V power is available, that’s helpful. For some situations, a generator setup can be used — just mention it when booking.
7. Can you weld outside?
Yes, many jobs are outdoors. Weather matters though — heavy rain and strong wind can affect safety and weld quality.
8. Can you price from photos?
Often yes. Clear photos plus a postcode and short description usually allow a guide price. Complex work may need a quick inspection on arrival.
9. Do you supply materials like plates and brackets?
Yes, small plates, bar and reinforcement pieces can be supplied as part of the job. Larger steel sections are usually arranged in advance.
10. Can you weld vehicle chassis for MOT?
Sometimes — but only where it’s safe and sensible. I’ll inspect first and may refuse if corrosion is severe or repair isn’t appropriate.
11. How should I prepare for your visit?
Please clear the work area where possible, remove flammable items, and make sure there’s safe access. If it’s a driveway gate, try to leave space to work around it.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can be under an hour. Gate and structural jobs are commonly 2–4 hours. Bigger site work can be half-day or full-day depending on scope.
