Welding & Fabrication

Aluminum Welding Done Right

Aluminum is unforgiving — it has to be clean, prepped and run hot enough to fuse without blowing through. We weld cracked frames, tanks, rims, brackets and equipment parts that most shops turn away.

  • Aluminum and steel both welded in-house
  • Custom fabrication from raw stock
  • Structural repairs on frames and tongues
  • Aluminum tanks built and repaired

Questions

Frequently Asked

Do I need an appointment for trailer repair?
No. You can pull up to the shop at 5102 Rigsby Ave and we will look at the trailer. Calling ahead at 210-810-2098 helps if it is a bigger job, so we can make sure there is bay space and the right parts on hand.
What kind of trailer repairs do you do?
Axles, bearings, springs, centers, equalizers and jacks on the running gear side. Lights, wiring, 7-pin and 4-pin connectors, winch installs and dump trailer hydraulic pumps on the electrical and hydraulic side. We also weld cracked frames, tongues and floor framing.
Do you weld aluminum?
Yes. Aluminum welding is one of our specialties — cracked frames, aluminum tanks, rims, brackets, toolboxes and equipment parts. We weld both aluminum and steel in-house, and we take on repairs that a lot of shops turn away.
Can you fix a bent aluminum rim?
In most cases yes. We straighten bent aluminum rims, weld cracks closed and true the rim back up. Bring it in and we will tell you honestly whether it can be saved or whether you are better off replacing it.
Do you rent trailers too?
Yes, though repair is our main business. We keep a small fleet of utility and dump trailers on the yard for daily and weekly rental. Call 210-810-2098 for current availability and rates.
Where is the shop located?
5102 Rigsby Ave, San Antonio, TX 78222 — on the east side just inside Loop 410, easy to reach from I-10 East and US-87.
