About Our Light Pole Welding Service in Croydon
Light Pole Welding Croydon is dedicated to providing expert on-site welding and repairs for street lighting and outdoor metalwork. We understand that many light poles and lamp posts are fixed in awkward positions where removal is costly or impossible.
We regularly work in tight spaces: behind fences, down narrow side passages, in rear gardens, basements, and other restricted locations. Our focus is on delivering practical, safe, and durable welding solutions that keep your lighting fixtures secure and functional.
Common Croydon jobs: bent or broken light poles, cracked mounting brackets, corroded base plates, lamp post reinforcement, and on-site welding where removal is impractical.
What Is Mobile Welding in Croydon?
Mobile welding means bringing the welding equipment directly to your site so repairs or fabrication can be done where the metalwork is installed. This is essential for light poles and street lighting fixtures that are fixed in place or located in hard-to-reach spots.
Our mobile welding service in Croydon is designed for real-world conditions — whether it’s a lamp post welded into concrete, a light pole bracket behind fencing, or a corroded base plate in a narrow alley.
- ✓ On-site welding at residential, commercial and municipal locations
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding for most steels and alloys
- ✓ Ideal for heavy, fixed or awkward-to-remove metalwork
- ✓ Perfect for urgent repairs where transport isn’t possible
- ✓ Croydon-based coverage across South London and nearby areas
Awkward access is normal for us: we carefully plan set-up, protect nearby areas, manage sparks safely and work efficiently even in tight spaces.

Why Mobile Welding Matters for Croydon Light Pole Repairs
When light poles or street lighting fixtures are heavy, fixed in place, or located in tight spots, transporting them to a workshop can be costly and disruptive. Mobile welding in Croydon simplifies the process by bringing the welders and equipment directly to your site.
This approach is especially valuable for awkward access jobs — such as lamp posts behind walls, brackets in narrow alleys, or base plates in restricted rear gardens where lifting gear cannot be used.
We weld where the pole sits, reducing delays caused by removal and transport.
By avoiding removals and recovery vehicles, you save more than just welding costs.
Many jobs are in locations unsuitable for workshop drop-offs — we’re equipped for those challenges.
