Mobile Welding in Turlock, CA
Turlock is the second-largest city in Stanislaus County after Modesto, set between Modesto and Merced at the intersection of Highway 99 and Highway 165. It came to be known as the Heart of the Valley because of its agricultural production. The rig comes down the hill for repairs and fabrication at farms, yards, homes and jobsites across the city.
Covering Turlock and the Highway 165 corridor
South on Highway 99 past Modesto and Ceres to Turlock, where Highway 165 ends at the freeway. From here Highway 165 runs south through Hilmar and across the San Joaquin River toward Los Banos, so a field job off it fits the same run.

Farmland on every side
Intensive agricultural development came to surround most of Turlock, and the Mitchell family once owned over 100,000 acres of the area, from Keyes to Atwater. Hot, mostly dry summers and cool, wet winters are hard on equipment that lives outdoors. Feed trailers, implements and yard machinery 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: the Stanislaus County Fairgrounds, California State University, Stanislaus, the Turlock-Denair Amtrak station, or your exit off Highway 99.
Questions we hear
Do you come out to Turlock?
Yes. Grain farmer John William Mitchell founded Turlock on December 22, 1871, and declined to have the town named for himself. The name is believed to come from the Irish village of Turlough, and the city incorporated on February 15, 1908. Highway 99 brings the rig right into town. Call or text and we'll set a time.
Can you repair farm equipment near Turlock?
Yes. Cracked toolbars, bent ripper shanks, broken trailer hitches and worn bucket edges get welded out in the field. Send a photo and the location and we'll plan the trip.
Do you also cover Hilmar and Denair?
Yes. Hilmar sits on Highway 165 south of town, and Denair shares its Amtrak station with Turlock, so work in either one fits the same 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 Turlock?
Send a photo and the cross roads, and the rig heads south on Highway 99 to Turlock.
