Hi Does anyone have a recommendation for a welder? My transit van camper needs a few bits doing to it in the autumm. I ideally want the underside cleaned up to make sure as much rust is sorted before being welded then reapplied with some underbody protection. It's a well used vehicle all year round so not looking for concourse just a solid job. I'm crystal palace way but willing to travel around London or into Sussex Surrey or Kent for a good job recommended by someone. Cheers Josh

It's a bit of a dying art with small garages being closed down by high rents and newer cars requiring far less welding than pre-2000 models. I'm from the same area (moved out a few years ago) and into classic cars and I can't really think of anybody who does what you're looking for. If you want a classic car restoration it's easier to find people but if you just want it watertight for the MOT that's a different kind of job. Dunno how good they are but PTA in Letchworth Drive in Bromley do welding. www.ptagarages.co.uk/branch/pta-garage-services-bromley

Thanks both appreciate it. Yeah not easy to find. Was thinking it would need a fair chunk of change throwing at it, but would be worth it for a few more years.

I used to do chassis welding for people and it is time consuming.
