Heavy Equipment

Heavy Equipment Welding in Livermore, CA

Bucket repair, hard-facing, pin and sleeve machining, and line boring, performed at your jobsite. Heavy equipment rarely travels well, so two fully equipped rigs come to the machine instead.

Full Service Depth

The Whole Suite, Not Just Welding.

Most mobile welders stop at crack repair. The machining services below are where equipment actually gets restored to spec, and they are the reason fleet operators keep our number.

Wear Surfaces

Bucket Repair and Hard-Facing

Cutting edges, side plates, and wear surfaces rebuilt, then hard-faced. Hard-facing lays a wear-resistant alloy over the surfaces that erode fastest, which buys a great deal more service life before the next rebuild.

Restore to Spec

Pin and Sleeve Machining

Worn pin bores rebuilt and re-sleeved to return the joint to original clearance. This is the fix for the slop that shows up in boom and bucket linkages as hours accumulate.

In Place

Line Boring

Re-machining worn bores back to true on the machine, without teardown. Line boring is what makes pin and bushing work possible without pulling the assembly to a shop.

Structural

Crack and Structural Repair

Booms, sticks, frames, and load-bearing members. Prepped, welded, and reinforced so the crack does not simply reappear beside the bead.

Preventive

Wear Plate Welding

Wear plate and liner replacement on beds, chutes, blades, and buckets. Preventive work is far cheaper than the structural repair it avoids.

Attachments

Construction Equipment Welding

Attachment brackets, quick couplers, guarding, and mounting points fabricated and welded. New parts come from metal fabrication.

In-Shop and On-Site

The Machine Does Not Have to Move.

Trailering a machine to a shop costs a day each way plus transport, and on a rental fleet that downtime is often worth more than the repair.

We dispatch to the machine. Two fully equipped rigs carry the power, gas, consumables, and machining capability to do this work where the equipment already sits: a jobsite, a yard, or a facility floor.

Line boring on site is the piece that makes the rest possible. Re-machining bores true without teardown means pin and sleeve work happens in place rather than in a shop after a two-day round trip.

Shop work when it is genuinely better. Smaller attachments and components that travel easily often get a better result on the bench at 3555c First St.

Equipment We Service

Machinery We Work On.

The work runs across construction, rental fleet, and facility equipment:

  • Excavators. Bucket repair and hard-facing, boom and stick cracks, pin and sleeve, line boring.
  • Wheel loaders. Bucket rebuild and hard-facing, boom arms, attachment points.
  • Bulldozers. Blade repair, frame repair, wear plate.
  • Skid steers. Attachment welding, coupler repair, frame cracks.
  • Trailers and dump bodies. Frames, hitches, landing gear, bed and tailgate repair.

If your machine is not on that list, call anyway. The processes are the same and the answer is usually yes. For non-equipment repair work see welding repair.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked.

Hard-facing lays a wear-resistant alloy over the surfaces that erode fastest, typically bucket cutting edges, side plates, and wear surfaces. It is applied during a rebuild or preventively before the base metal is compromised, and it substantially extends service life between rebuilds.

Line boring re-machines a worn pin bore back to true while the machine stays assembled. Without it, restoring a worn joint means pulling the assembly and trailering it to a machine shop. With it, pin and sleeve work happens on your site.

We dispatch to the machine. Two fully equipped rigs carry the power, gas, consumables, and machining capability to work where the equipment sits. Smaller attachments that travel easily sometimes get a better result on our shop bench.

Call (925) 518-6694 and we will tell you our actual availability. Emergency calls are welcome. We would rather give you a straight answer than promise a window we cannot hold.

Yes. We fabricate from the failed original or from measurements, which matters on older machines where the part is discontinued.

Yes. California Contractor State License Board license #1132921, C60 licensed contractor, American Welding Society certified welders, fully insured. Certificates available on request before work begins.

Yes, a 4-hour industrial minimum at $600. That covers full crew deployment and a properly equipped rig, which on heavy equipment work is what makes the repair worth doing once.
