Exhaust welding in your driveway, not at a shop

That rattle under the truck is usually a hanger that snapped off the pipe. Searching exhaust welding near me gets you a list of muffler shops and a morning in a waiting room. We come to the driveway, weld the hanger back on, and you are done.

Cracked pipes, broken flanges, clamps that will not hold, a bracket off the heat shield: mild steel exhaust work, done at your place in the Capital Region within 24 to 48 hours.

What breaks on exhaust

  • Hangers that rust and snap off the pipe
  • Cracks at the weld where the pipe meets the muffler or the flange
  • Flanges broken or rusted so the bolts have nothing to hold
  • Clamped joints that leak no matter how tight
  • Heat shield brackets rattling loose
  • Trailer and equipment exhaust on generators and small engines

How we fix exhaust on site

We get under it with a creeper and a light, grind the rust back to clean steel, and weld the hanger or the crack. A clamp that keeps leaking gets welded into a solid joint. A rusted flange gets a new one welded on when there is enough pipe to work with.

What we do not do: catalytic converters, anything that changes emissions equipment, and full exhaust replacement. If the pipe is rusted thin end to end there is nothing to weld to, and we will tell you that from the photo so you do not pay for a trip.

Cars and trucks, work vans, plow trucks, trailers with generators, mowers and skid steers. Mild steel exhaust is mild steel exhaust.

Questions people ask

Can you weld my exhaust in my driveway?

Yes. A flat spot to park and room to get under the vehicle is all we need. The rig has its own power.

Do you replace catalytic converters or mufflers?

No. We weld hangers, cracks, flanges and joints on mild steel exhaust. Parts replacement and emissions equipment go to a shop.

Is the pipe too rusted to weld?

Sometimes. Send a photo of the area around the break. If the steel is thin all over we tell you before the visit and point you to a shop.

How long does an exhaust hanger take?

A snapped hanger is one of the quickest jobs we do. You get a day within 24 to 48 hours and it is done on that visit.

Manifolds?

Manifolds are case by case. Send a photo. If it's one we'd rather not risk on your part we'll say so, and for the ones worth doing we bring in a specialist we trust.
