What Is Mobile Truck Body Welding in Croydon?

On-site truck body welding work in Croydon

Mobile truck body welding means bringing the welding equipment directly to your truck, trailer or commercial vehicle so repairs or fabrication can be done where the vehicle is parked or stored. This is essential when the vehicle is too heavy or awkward to transport safely to a workshop.

  • ✓ On-site welding at truck yards, industrial estates, farms & construction sites
  • ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding for mild steel, structural steel and alloys
  • ✓ Ideal for heavy, fixed or awkward-to-move vehicle parts
  • ✓ Perfect for urgent repairs where vehicle movement is impossible or costly

Why Mobile Truck Body Welding Matters for Croydon Customers

Heavy truck body parts and chassis are often fixed in place or too large to move easily. Transporting them to a workshop can be costly and cause significant downtime. Mobile truck body welding in Croydon simplifies this by bringing the welding expertise directly to your vehicle’s location.

This is especially important for awkward access jobs — such as welding a trailer ramp in a tight yard, repairing a cracked chassis frame inside an industrial estate, or patching armoured vehicle bodywork without dismantling.

Less Downtime

We weld where the vehicle is parked, avoiding transport delays and costly workshop lead times.

Cost Effective

By eliminating removals and recovery vehicle hire, you often save more than the welding cost itself.

Ideal for Tight Access

We specialise in welding trucks and trailers in yards, narrow alleys and restricted industrial sites.

How Truck Body Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely

Welding involves heat, sparks and fumes, so safety is paramount — especially in tight or industrial sites. For awkward access jobs, we take extra care with shielding, ventilation and protecting nearby vehicles and surfaces before starting.

We use appropriate PPE, manage cables safely, and control grinding dust and sparks to ensure a clean and responsible job, even in cramped or sensitive areas.

Truck Body Welding Safety Checklist

  • ✓ Site risk assessment before work starts
  • ✓ Fire watch and suitable fire extinguisher on site
  • ✓ Protection of paintwork, glass and nearby vehicles
  • ✓ Proper earthing, cable and lead management
  • ✓ PPE including helmet, gloves, jacket and eye protection
  • ✓ Clean-up of debris and weld inspection after completion
  • ✓ Extra shielding for awkward access and confined spaces

Common issue we prevent: sparks damaging nearby paint, glass or vehicles. If possible, move valuables away; if not, we shield carefully and work in a controlled manner.
