At 704 Diesel & Welding Services, we provide heavy equipment welding repair for machines that work hard every day and cannot afford long downtime. We repair cracks, broken welds, worn metal, damaged buckets, loader arms, frames, attachments, and other structural or high-stress parts on many types of equipment. Our goal is simple: get your equipment back to safe, reliable working condition as quickly as possible.
Heavy equipment takes a beating. Constant vibration, heavy loads, rough terrain, impact, and daily wear can lead to cracked steel, failed welds, bent components, and weak points that get worse over time. We help customers catch these problems early and handle major repairs when damage is already serious. Whether the issue is on an excavator, skid steer, trailer, dump body, backhoe, dozer, farm equipment, or other diesel-powered work machine, we bring real hands-on welding and repair experience to the job.
What our heavy equipment welding repair service includes
We handle a wide range of welding and metal repair work for commercial, agricultural, and industrial equipment. Depending on the machine and the damage, our service may include:
- Crack repair on structural steel components
- Bucket repair, cutting edge repair, and reinforcement
- Loader arm and boom repair
- Attachment repair for forks, grapples, blades, and other implements
- Frame and chassis welding repairs
- Repair of worn, torn, or broken mounting points
- Rebuilding damaged metal sections
- Gusset installation and reinforcement welding
- Stick welding, MIG welding, and fabrication as needed for the application
- On-site mobile welding repair or in-shop repair, depending on the job
Every repair starts with a close look at the damaged area. We check the crack path, metal thickness, stress points, surrounding wear, and how the part is used in the field. That matters because a quick surface weld is not always the right fix. In many cases, the damaged area needs to be cleaned, prepped, beveled, reinforced, and welded correctly so the repair holds up under real working conditions.
Mobile and in-shop heavy equipment welding repair
One of the biggest benefits we offer is flexibility. We provide mobile welding and repair service within about a 50-mile radius of Marshville, NC, including much of the Charlotte area and nearby counties in North and South Carolina. If your machine is down on a job site, farm, yard, or roadside location, we can often come to you and perform the repair on-site when it makes sense. That can save time, reduce hauling costs, and get your crew moving again faster.
For more involved repairs, we also offer in-shop service. Some jobs require controlled setup, additional fabrication, more extensive tear-down, or longer repair time. If the damage is severe or if a component needs a more detailed rebuild, bringing the equipment or part into our shop may be the best option. We will explain what we see, what we recommend, and the most practical path forward.
Why proper welding repair matters on heavy equipment
Heavy equipment is not something you want to patch and hope for the best. Poor welding can lead to repeat failures, unsafe operation, more expensive damage, and lost production time. A failed weld on a boom, bucket, arm, hitch point, or frame can put both the machine and the operator at risk. That is why we focus on repairs that are made for the actual workload of the machine, not just what looks good when the job is finished.
We understand that these repairs are often urgent. When an excavator bucket cracks, a trailer frame breaks, or a skid steer attachment fails, work can stop right away. We do our best to respond quickly, identify the problem, and make a repair that helps you get back to work with confidence.
Equipment and applications we commonly repair
Our heavy equipment welding repair service is used by contractors, site crews, farmers, land-clearing operators, trucking companies, and owner-operators who depend on their machines every day. We commonly work on:
- Excavators
- Skid steers
- Backhoes
- Bulldozers
- Loaders
- Trailers and equipment trailers
- Dump trucks and dump bodies
- Farm equipment and agricultural machinery
- Attachments such as buckets, forks, grapples, blades, and hitches
If you have a piece of equipment with cracked metal, a broken bracket, a failed weld, or visible wear that is getting worse, it is worth having it looked at before the damage spreads. Many repairs are more manageable and less costly when handled early.
Our approach at 704 Diesel & Welding Services
704 Diesel & Welding Services was established in 2022 by Matt Harris, and we have built our reputation on dependable work, honest communication, and practical repair solutions. We are a local business, and when customers call us, they are speaking with a team that understands diesel equipment, welding, and the demands of real field work. We know your machine is not just a piece of equipment. It is how you keep your job moving and your business running.
We take the time to understand the issue, the type of work the equipment performs, and whether a repair, reinforcement, or fabricated solution is the smartest option. Our focus is on quality workmanship and service you can trust. We do not believe in one-size-fits-all repairs. We look at what failed, why it failed, and what needs to be done to improve durability.
When to call for heavy equipment welding repair
You should contact us if you notice:
- Visible cracks in buckets, booms, arms, frames, or attachments
- Broken or separating welds
- Bent or weakened steel components
- Worn edges, stress tears, or metal fatigue
- Loose brackets, mounts, or supports
- Damage from impact, overload, or long-term wear
Even if the machine is still operating, damaged metal can fail without much warning once the stress increases. Getting the issue checked early can help prevent a bigger breakdown and more downtime later.
