Aluminum Welding across Mobile County, AL.
Aluminum welding pulls heat away fast and hides its cracks, and cast aluminum is harder again. That is why shops turn it down, and why those calls end up here. Brackets, housings, mounts, and cast aluminum welding on pieces other welders call unfixable.
Aluminum repair on this coast is constant — salt gets into everything aluminum was chosen for in the first place. A worn or broken cast piece gets built back up rather than thrown out.
Stainless, aluminum, cast iron and cast aluminum. That is the list on Rod's business card and it has not changed. Call (251) 753-7337.

Aluminum Welding — Questions, Answered.
Do you weld aluminum and cast aluminum?
Yes — both, and cast aluminum is the one most shops would rather not take. Brackets, housings, mounts and cracked castings get TIG or MIG welded across Mobile, Theodore, Tillmans Corner, Saraland, and Irvington and the rest of Mobile County. Call (251) 753-7337.Can cast aluminum really be welded, or does it just crack again?
It holds when the prep and the heat are right. Cast aluminum is porous and it moves under heat, which is exactly why it takes hands that have done a lot of it. 50+ years of reading how aluminum behaves is what makes the difference on a casting.
