Mobile steel welding on the North Shore

Quick answer

Mobile steel welding from BERNTOR INC. means repairing or assembling steel parts directly at your site, without hauling the equipment to a shop. The service covers the North Shore and is reached at 418-350-8737, with 24/7 emergency subject to availability.

When mobile welding is the right call

As soon as a steel part is too heavy, too bulky or too built into a machine to remove easily, moving it often costs more than the repair itself.

Mobile welding also fits when the equipment is in service and long downtime isn't an option: the repair happens while the machine stays put.

  • A part bolted or welded to a machine that is down
  • Equipment on a site far from any shop
  • A breakdown at the end of the day or on a weekend
  • A steel structure fixed to the ground or a building

Types of problems handled

Cracks and starting fractures

A crack running through a steel part is stopped, prepared and welded; a reinforcement can be added when the geometry allows it.

Clean breaks

A part split in two, a torn lug, a broken bracket: alignment is re-established before welding so the part returns to its original position.

Wear and loss of thickness

Areas thinned by friction or abrasion: build-up or added steel plate depending on the remaining thickness.

Assemblies and modifications

Adding a bracket, a tie-down, an eyelet or a plate to an existing steel structure.

How a job unfolds

The call identifies the part, the access and the urgency. On site, the area is inspected, cleared and prepared: grinding, cleaning, removal of paint or rust around the joint.

Welding is then done according to position and metal thickness, and the area is visually checked and left clean before departure.

Information to have ready

  • The type of equipment and its approximate model
  • The affected part and the approximate metal thickness
  • What gave way and how long ago
  • The city or area, and how the site is reached
  • Whether the machine is down or still usable
  • Photos: a wide view and a close-up of the break

Limits and safety

  • Work is done on steel only: no aluminum, no stainless steel.
  • No regulated structural repairs and no high-pressure piping work are offered.
  • Work depends on safe access: a clear zone, flammable materials moved away, the machine immobilized.
  • Some conditions (wind, heavy rain, impassable access, site requirements) can postpone the work.
  • If a job falls outside what is offered, that is said plainly on the phone rather than attempted.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do you weld aluminum or stainless steel?
No. BERNTOR INC. works on steel. If your part is aluminum or stainless, mention it on the first call.
Can welding be done in the rain or in winter?
Many jobs remain possible, but some conditions call for shelter, extra preparation or postponing. It is assessed case by case.
Does a welded repair last as long as the original part?
It depends on the part, the cause of the break and the loads it carries. The cause is explained plainly and a reinforcement is suggested when it makes sense.
