In the words of our customers
Back up and running, across Southern Ontario

“Excellent quality workmanship and outstanding service. Dan's does small bending and welding jobs for me and I can't say enough good things about the quality of service and the responsiveness. Thanks Allison!”
“Excellent customer service. They were the only ones who responded to my several inquiries around the area, even though it was a small project. Special thanks to Mohammed for the quick email response.”
“Professional and friendly, definitely the right place for your job. Pricing is also very reasonable.”

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.
