Mobile welding and fabrication, Perth Hills to regional WA
Earthmoving repairs, trailers, aluminium and custom steelwork by Alex, a certified metal tradesman with more than 20 years on the tools. Bring it to the Walliston workshop, or he’ll bring the welder to you.
- Certified metal tradesman
- 20+ years across mining, oil and gas, and transport
- Workshop jobs or on site, wherever the job is
Alex works for earthmoving contractors, transport operators, farmers, 4WD and boat owners, and Perth Hills locals with a one-off job.
What we do
Most jobs fall into one of these five. If yours doesn’t, ask anyway: a lot of the best work starts with “can you make one of these?”
Heavy earthmoving boilermaking: full bucket rebuilds, dump truck tray and side tipper relines, custom Hardox and Bisalloy liner kits, and emergency on-site thermal lancing for worn pins.
Breakdowns don’t wait for a workshop. Alex brings the welder to farms, sites, yards and driveways across metro Perth and regional WA.
Structural steel, sheds, plate work, brackets and frames, made from drawings, a sketch or a photo of what you need.
Trailers, tipper bodies, hungry boards, camper and caravan work, roll bars and gates, built to order or repaired.
Boats, ute canopies, toolboxes, camper fit-outs and cast alloy. Aluminium takes different prep and technique to steel, and Alex does both.
You deal with Alex from the first call to the final weld
ATMA is owner-operated. The person who quotes your job is the person who does it, so nothing gets lost between a sales desk and the workshop.
Alex has been on the tools since 2002, including ten years subcontracting. That work has included:
- Mining equipment overhauls on excavators, dozers, shovels and loaders
- Oil and gas construction on Wheatstone, Barrow Island and Ichthys
- Heavy transport fabrication: chassis, dollies and tippers
- Tunnel boring machine commissioning
- Field service work right across WA
- Highly experienced in MMAW (stick), FCAW and GTAW (TIG) welding

Spoke to Alex about some custom aluminium work on my tinny and it turned out better than I had pictured. Great communication throughout so no surprises. Great service and good price!

Highly recommend. Any fab work you need done, get in touch. You will not be disappointed. Great bloke, great work and quality.

Fantastic high quality work! Mine was only a small job fixing an aluminium drawer from my ute canopy, but after Alex finished it was way better.

Common questions
Something else? Call Alex on 0447 111 603.
Do you come to us?
Yes. Mobile welding is a big part of the work: breakdowns, machines that can’t be moved, and jobs on farms and sites across metro Perth and regional WA.
What should I send for a quote?
Photos of the job, what you need (repair, modification or new build), any material or design preferences, and where it is.
Do you take on small jobs?
Yes. A cracked bracket or a canopy drawer gets the same care as a tipper body.
How much does welding cost?
It depends on the metal, the job and current material prices. Alex talks you through material costs before work starts, so there are no surprises.
General handyman work, too
Metal fabrication is the main game, but Alex also takes on handyman jobs around the home, with the same care that goes into his welding.
- Painting and crack repairs
- High-pressure roof cleaning and soft washing
- Roof tile re-bedding and repairs
