Two decades on the tools

Alex started in the trade in 2002. Since then he’s overhauled mining equipment, rebuilt buckets and relined trays, fabricated heavy transport, worked on some of WA’s biggest oil and gas projects and commissioned tunnel boring machines, including ten years as a subcontractor.

He’s highly experienced across MMAW (stick), FCAW (flux-cored) and GTAW (TIG) welding, and ATMA brings all of it to everyday jobs as well as big ones: dependable welding, fabrication and repairs, with a fast turnaround and a fair price.
