I called ahead to let them know I needed the aluminum poles of my backdrop stand fixed as they were bent out of shape. I was immediately greeted by a friendly voice on the phone and I was told to drop by anytime for an estimate. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a smile from the receptionist (Sydney), and she called out to Darcy to assist me. Darcy was also friendly, efficient and very professional! He explained what needed to be done and charged me way less than the estimated repair value. Plus the pole was repaired instantly to save me time of having to return another day, as I had to

Great workmanship and fast service! I needed custom dining room COVID barriers since the stock ones wouldnt work in our limited space. They made a sample according to my sketch and then made the dozen I needed within a week, for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.

They have repeatedly turned my hair brained ideas that are poorly sketched into well built finished products. Years ago I tried several other welding shops with mediocre results, but then I discovered THE Welding Shop and now it's the only place I go.
