Welding Services

priced after inspection

Welding work is needed when corrosion damage, rust-through, or body panel deformation can't be fixed without replacing part of the metal. We carry out welding and replacement of rocker panels, wheel arch liners, and other damaged body sections on passenger cars, SUVs, vans and minibuses. After welding, we treat the underbody with bitumen coating or stone-chip protection to prevent corrosion from coming back.

When to get in touch

If you notice any of these, it’s better not to wait:

  • Rust has gone all the way through on the rocker panels or wheel arches
  • You've noticed paint bubbling or blistering, which points to corrosion underneath
  • The rocker panels sound hollow or flex when pressed
  • Signs of corrosion are visible on the wheel arch liners or their mounts
  • The car sustained body damage in an accident
  • The underbody's anti-corrosion coating has worn away or been damaged
  • There are signs of moisture or rust inside the cabin near the rocker panels
  • You're preparing the car for a roadworthiness inspection and suspect corrosion
  • You bought a used car and need the body checked from underneath

When welding is the only option

Not every body defect can be fixed with panel beating or paint alone. If rust has gone all the way through the metal, if a body panel is deformed to the point of losing its shape and strength, or if an accident has affected load-bearing structural elements, welding and replacing the damaged section with metal of the correct thickness and quality is the only proper solution.

We carry out welding work for:

  • Passenger cars
  • SUVs
  • Vans
  • Minibuses

Our approach to welding is always individual and depends on the body type, the nature of the damage, and how accessible the damaged area is.


Rocker panel welding and replacement

Rocker panels are among the most vulnerable body elements, since they're in constant contact with moisture, road de-icing chemicals and dirt. Over time this causes corrosion from the inside, which often stays invisible from the outside until the metal has rusted through.

As part of rocker panel work, we carry out:

  • A condition assessment of the panel and adjacent elements
  • Cutting out the damaged section of metal
  • Fabricating and welding in a new panel section
  • Treating the weld seams and surrounding areas with anti-corrosion coating
  • Final surface preparation for painting

Replacing a rocker panel isn't cosmetic work — it restores the body's structural strength, since rocker panels contribute to the vehicle's overall rigidity.


Wheel arch liner welding and replacement

Wheel arch liners protect the inner arch cavities from moisture, dirt and small stones, but they're also exposed to the same factors and corrode over time. We carry out repair and replacement of wheel arch liners, including:

  • Removing the damaged liner
  • Assessing the condition of the arch metal underneath
  • Welding or replacing the corroded sections of the arch
  • Installing a new liner or restoring the existing one
  • Treating the area with anti-corrosion coating

Timely repair of wheel arch liners prevents corrosion from spreading to neighboring body elements, including the sills and pillars.


Underbody protection after welding

After welding is complete, exposed metal is especially vulnerable to corrosion, so we always apply a protective coating to the treated areas and the car's underbody. We offer:

  • Bitumen coating, which creates a dense protective layer
  • Specialized stone-chip protection for areas at higher risk of impact damage

This treatment doesn't just protect fresh metal from moisture and road chemicals — it also extends the lifespan of the entire underbody, reducing the risk of corrosion returning in the future.

Frequently asked questions

The cost depends on the extent of the damage, the area of corrosion, and the vehicle type. You can confirm the exact price after an inspection.

If rust has gone all the way through the metal, or the panel sounds hollow or flexes when pressed, the damaged section will need to be cut out and new metal welded in rather than a cosmetic fix.

Yes, fresh metal is especially vulnerable to corrosion after welding, so we always apply a protective coating to the treated areas.

Bitumen coating creates a dense protective layer against moisture and road chemicals, while stone-chip protection is designed for areas at higher risk of impact damage, such as the front bumper or rocker panels.

If only the liner itself is damaged and the arch metal underneath isn't corroded, the liner can be replaced without welding work. We give an exact assessment after inspection.

The timeframe depends on the extent of the damage and the subsequent preparation for painting. You can confirm the exact time when booking.
