We weld process and utility pipe in steel and stainless, either at your facility or as spool work fabricated in the shop and carried in ready to set.
Pipe is unforgiving in a specific way: the weld is the part nobody sees until it is the part everybody is looking at. A joint that leaks is not a cosmetic problem, it is a shutdown, a cleanup and a second outage window to do the job again. So the work that matters happens before the arc strikes, in the fit-up.
Where a run can be built ahead, we prefer to fabricate spools in the shop where the position is controlled and the light is good, then set and tie in on site. Where the geometry only exists in the field, we weld it in the field. Both are normal and we will tell you which one your run calls for.
Steel and stainless are both in scope. Being open 24 hours matters more here than almost anywhere else, because pipe work usually happens inside an outage window that somebody has already scheduled around.
When you send a pipe job, the useful details are the material, the size, the service the line carries, and whether the work is a new run, a modification or a tie-in to existing pipe. Photographs of the area help, particularly where access is tight, because access is usually what decides whether a joint gets welded in position or gets built as a spool.
We will also tell you where we are not the right shop. Pipe work spans an enormous range and some of it belongs with a specialist. Describing the line properly at the start is how both of us avoid finding that out halfway through an outage.
How this job runs
The same sequence every time, so you know what you are buying.
The part that decides whether the weld holds. Done carefully and checked before anything is welded out.
Runs built in the shop in a controlled position, then carried in and set.
Welded where the run actually goes, including the connections into existing pipe.
Brackets, hangers and supports fabricated here so the run is carried properly rather than improvised.
The weld is decided at the fit-up, not at the arc.
Careful fit-up is slower on the first day and faster over the life of the run.
Questions about pipe welding
Do you weld stainless as well as carbon steel?
Yes. Steel and stainless are both in scope, along with aluminum for fabrication work generally.
Can you work inside a scheduled outage?
Yes, and this is where the 24 hour schedule earns its keep. Outage windows are usually nights and weekends, and those are working hours here.
Do you fabricate spools or only weld in the field?
Both. Where a run can be built ahead in a controlled position we prefer to, because the welds are better and the field time is shorter.
Will you also make the supports?
Yes. Hangers, brackets and supports get fabricated in the same shop rather than sourced separately.
