Mobile Welding in Salinas, CA
Salinas is the county seat of Monterey County, at the mouth of the Salinas Valley about eight miles from the Pacific Ocean, where the Gabilan and Santa Lucia mountain ranges border the valley to the east and west. The streets of Salinas were laid out in 1867, and the town was incorporated in 1874. The rig crosses the valley from the foothills for repairs and fabrication at farms, ranches, shops and jobsites across Salinas.

Salt marshes to the Salad Bowl
Salinas was named in Spanish for the salt marshes around the central Salinas slough, and the railroad arrived in 1868 to carry goods and people. Dry farming of wheat and barley gave way to row crops of root vegetables, grapes and sugar beets, and the city is known as the Salad Bowl of the World. Tractor hitches, implement frames and flatbed trailers get repaired right where they sit, because the rig carries engine-drive welding power, wire feeders, an oxy-acetylene torch and a plasma cutter.
For directions, a landmark helps: Oldtown Salinas and its Victorian buildings, the Steinbeck House, the Boronda Adobe, or the Fox California Theater.
Questions we hear
Do you come out to Salinas?
Yes. The California Rodeo Salinas began in 1911 as a Wild West Show, and the Salinas River runs the length of the valley to the Pacific Ocean. US 101 brings the rig into town. Call or text and we'll set a time.
Can you weld a tractor drawbar or implement frame in Salinas?
Yes. A cracked cultivator toolbar, a broken drawbar, a split flatbed crossmember and a bent hitch plate get welded at the field edge or the yard. Send a photo and the address and we'll plan the trip.
Do you also cover Marina?
Yes. Marina sits 8 miles west of Salinas on Highway 1, between Monterey and Santa Cruz, so a Marina job pairs with a Salinas trip.
What hours do you work?
Regular hours are 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. After-hours and emergency call-outs are available 24 hours a day, Monday - Saturday and are quoted up front. Call or text us to schedule.
Something broken in Salinas?
Field, yard or Oldtown shop, text a photo, and the rig takes US 101 into the valley.
