★★★★★
“Very good quality work and fair prices. Dean was honest on the expected timeline and price of the job I had done. Excellent example of how a small business like this should be ran… Plus you know exactly who is doing the welding/repairs which makes it a much more personable experience.”
★★★★★
“We had a large gate on our historic home that the latch was broken on. Dean and Chelsea came out within a week of me calling and replaced and reworked the whole latch. It is amazing!… Great people and company with fair prices. Highly recommend.”
★★★★★
“I wanted my cheap OEM bumper beefed up on my 5th Wheel so that I could safely haul bikes/kayaks and they definitely did that! New heavier bumper with 2" receiver… Dean and his team were super friendly and kept me up to date throughout the project.”
★★★★★
“Took my power washer in and they told me a weld probably wouldn't be the answer and they suggested replacing the pump. I'm sure they saved me time and money… Employees are friendly and courteous!”
★★★★★
“Wow, best welding shop ever. Dean, very nice owner and professional. Prices very reasonable.”

About the shop
Same corner of Fort Wayne since 1966
Northeast Welding has been fixing, building and modifying metal on St. Joe Center Road for nearly six decades. It's a small shop on purpose. Dean, Chelsea and the crew handle the work themselves, so the person you talk to is the person who welds it.
We take the big jobs and the small ones: material-handling equipment and custom trailers, and also the patio chair, the bike frame and the bar stool. Walk-ins are welcome during shop hours, and the portable rig covers jobs that can't come to us.
