fredsredhat   10 #2 Posted February 15, 2011 i cant imagine any pushchair thats worth the price to have it welded. It'd be far far far cheaper to bin it and buy a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mart   71 #3 Posted February 16, 2011 i cant imagine any pushchair thats worth the price to have it welded.  Agree. Unless of course it is not allumininium. Have you tried a magnet on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Nagel   10 #4 Posted February 16, 2011 Try looking up fabricators. That's the trade that knows about welding and if you can find a small fabricating shop who will do small repairs you're onto a winner. It's much better and a lot cheaper to get something repaired than to have to replace it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Leah-Lacie   10 #5 Posted February 16, 2011 If the frame is at the point of damage where it needs welding, i wouldn't use it myself! Can't you just get a new one? I know this one may well be expensive but you can get cheap ones for less than the price of a repair! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

kidley   48 #7 Posted February 16, 2011 i have taken my sons alluminium wheelchair to be welded today at a place near the ski village. very reasonablely priced and he came recommended from another wheelchair user. 01142751447  Hi With respect why do you put "very reasonably priced " instead of telling people what money he/she charged and for what he/she did for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Leah-Lacie   10 #8 Posted February 16, 2011 I think the same thing. After all, whats 'reasonable' for you could be well out of my price range... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mart   71 #9 Posted February 16, 2011 I think what Lolliew means is simply that for the work that was done the price was reasonable. That would still be the case whether one is rich or poor-“was the cost reasonable in respect of the work done“.  At the end of the day, Kidley has provided a phone number, so it is only a matter of the OP picking up the phone. Once they have had a quote they can make an informed decision which way to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
kidley   48 #10 Posted February 16, 2011 Hi Mart to cut out all that would it not be more informative to say i was charged £25 for welding a 1inch dia aluminium tube Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
lolliew   10 #11 Posted February 16, 2011 with respect - it has bugger all else to with anyone else what i paid for the repair.  the needs of the OP are different to what mine was.  as mart said - i did provide a number for the op to get the information for themselves. they didnt however ask what anyone paid just if anyone knew of somewhere that can weld alluminium.
