YEARS OF KNOW-HOW

When you’ve been in the business as long as we have, you’ve seen it all.

Southern Welding began over 15 years ago as the solution we wished we’d had when we worked for industrial manufacturers. Our team has all come from running and maintaining manufacturing plants. Today, we specialize in keeping these same plants and mills up and running.

That’s the Southern Way.

We Solve Problems at Every Kind of Industrial Plant

We know the ins and outs of every type of plant and can upgrade or repair almost every piece of equipment at your facility. We build and fabricate at our facilities or on-site, allowing us to provide fully customized solutions and delivery within a timely manner. 

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT.

When I got my first opportunity to lead a job, it was at a cement plant in TN in 1997 during their annual shutdown. We were rebuilding the crusher dryer and I was frustrated because I thought we should be moving faster. Shane Boston took me aside and said, “Son, before you even think about starting a job, you must first WANT to get the job done”. I replied, "I don't think we can get the job done in a timely manner." His reply: “'Can’t' died in hole, he fell in there and couldn’t get back out”. Can’t isn’t a part of the way we do things at Southern. It’s not in the vocabulary. Not only did we end up finishing the job, but we also finished two days earlier than originally scheduled. I try to keep that same mentality that Shane instilled in me that day on everything we do.

We work with many of the most well-known industrial manufacturers around.

Manufacturers choose us because they know we get fabrication projects done safely, on budget and within timeframes that others can’t. We rearrange schedules, add shifts and expedite projects faster than anyone. That’s the Southern Way.

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT.

If your plant is down, we work, day and night, to get the parts you need to be back up and running as soon as possible. This can be small components such as buckets or large items such as stacks and ductwork. That’s just the Southern Way.
