About Our Custom Car Welding Service in Croydon
Custom Car Welding Croydon was founded on the principle of delivering expert vehicle welding on-site, even when access is challenging. Many clients come to us after being told their vehicle must be taken to a workshop, but often moving heavy or armoured vehicles is impractical or costly.
We specialise in welding vehicles where they are located — whether that’s in a narrow driveway, a rear garden, a tight garage, or a restricted industrial yard. Our focus is on practical, durable welding repairs and fabrication that minimise downtime and disruption.
Typical Croydon jobs: armoured vehicle chassis welding, trailer frame repairs, bespoke car metalwork, security plating, and on-site welding where vehicle removal is impossible or impractical.
What Is Mobile Welding in Croydon?
Mobile welding means bringing welding equipment directly to your vehicle’s location to perform repairs or fabrication where the vehicle actually is. This is essential when the vehicle is too heavy, armoured, or awkward to move safely to a workshop.
Our custom car welding service in Croydon is tailored for real-world vehicle repair situations — from armoured cars welded in place, to chassis repairs on trailers parked in yards, to bespoke metal fabrication on classic cars in tight garages.
- ✓ On-site welding at homes, garages, yards & commercial sites
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding for steel, stainless and aluminium
- ✓ Ideal for heavy, fixed or awkward-to-move vehicles
- ✓ Perfect for urgent repairs where transport isn’t feasible
- ✓ Croydon-based coverage across South London and nearby areas
Awkward access is normal for us: we plan set-up carefully, protect surroundings, manage sparks safely, and work efficiently even in tight spaces.

Why Mobile Welding Matters for Croydon Vehicle Owners
Vehicles that are heavy, armoured, or fixed in place often cannot be transported easily to a workshop without significant expense or risk. Mobile welding in Croydon simplifies this by bringing expert welding services directly to your vehicle’s location.
This approach is especially valuable for awkward access vehicle welding — such as armoured cars welded into garages, trailers in tight yards, or classic cars in narrow driveways where removal is impractical.
We weld your vehicle where it sits, avoiding delays caused by transport and workshop scheduling.
Eliminating the need for recovery vehicles and workshop fees often saves you more than the welding costs.
We specialise in welding vehicles in locations that are difficult or impossible to move from.
