About us

A Burlington family business since 1960

Daniel Nielsen opened Dan's Welding & Fabricating in 1960. Three generations later his granddaughter Allison runs the shop alongside a crew of 28, ten of whom have been here more than twenty years.

That continuity is why plants across Southern Ontario keep coming back, the same people and the same standards, job after job.

The Dan's Welding difference

The kind of shop your plant can count on

Off-the-shelf rarely fits industry. Since 1960 we have built the brackets, tanks, transitions, platforms and one-off parts that keep material handling lines, water treatment plants, food processors and manufacturers running.

  • You bring the sketch, CAD drawing or worn-out part. We bring it to life, and hire an engineer when a job calls for one.
  • MIG, TIG, stick and spot welding by certified welders held to CWB standards.
  • Cutting, shearing, rolling, bending, punching, drilling and machining in-house, so your job does not bounce between shops.
  • A crew that stays. Ten of our people have been here more than twenty years.
