Local Roots,
Expert Work
Our story began right here in Exeter, MO. Before becoming a welding and fabrication company, our family operated a large apple orchard—over 700 acres and 600 contractors strong. When the orchard closed, we turned our focus to a new kind of craftsmanship: metalwork. Using the same equipment and problem-solving mindset we’d relied on to keep our farming operation running, we built something new—a business grounded in hard work, precision, and trust.
Today, that same spirit drives everything we do. Our team brings years of hands-on experience to every welding project, helping customers across Barry County, Cassville, and Monett keep their equipment and vehicles running strong.
Complete Welding and Fabrication Services
We offer a full range of welding services for residential, agricultural, and commercial needs. Whether you’re repairing a trailer, customizing your truck, or fabricating a new piece of equipment, we’ll get it done with accuracy and attention to detail.
Trailer Repairs
Trailers take a beating in Missouri’s changing weather and rough terrain. From cracked welds to worn-out wiring, we repair every part to keep your trailer safe and road-ready. Our trailer repair services include:
- Replacing or repairing floors, axles, wiring, and brakes
- Reinforcing frames and joints for better load stability
- Custom welds for hitches, rails, and accessories
We understand that your trailer isn’t just a tool: it’s essential to your work. That’s why we complete every repair efficiently, so you can get back on the road with confidence.
Custom-Built Trailers
Looking for a trailer that fits your exact needs? We design and custom-build trailers for all types of uses, from farming and hauling to commercial work. Our team can fabricate everything from light-duty utility trailers to heavy equipment haulers, with custom options for hitches, ramps, and hydraulic systems.
When you work with us, you’re not limited to “standard” designs. We’ll collaborate with you to create a trailer that performs the way you need it to—built strong, practical, and long-lasting.
Truck Accessories and Hitch Installation
From reinforced bumpers to custom hitches and tool racks, we fabricate and install truck accessories that fit your vehicle perfectly. Whether it’s a simple welding job or a fully custom design, our work is built for strength and usability.
We also handle custom hitch installations for trucks and trailers, ensuring every connection point is safe, durable, and built to handle heavy loads.
Hydraulic Hose Services
We’re proud to provide hydraulic hose fabrication and repair for local farmers, construction crews, and businesses. After all, a failed hose can shut down your equipment in the middle of a job, but we help you avoid that downtime by repairing or replacing your hoses quickly.
We also stock a wide range of fittings and materials, allowing us to match most hydraulic systems right here in our shop.
