Trades /Welders
Welder staffing that passes the weld test.
Structural, pipe, and fab welders running MIG, TIG, and stick, qualified to your WPS before they ever strike an arc on your job.
Structural, pipe & fabrication welders
Built for the work, verified before day one.
A welder either holds the cert the job calls for or they don't, and a failed structural or pipe weld means cut-out, rework, and a rejected inspection your schedule can't absorb. Precision verifies AWS D1.1 and ASME Section IX qualifications and runs a weld test to your procedure on request, so the combo welder, pipe welder, or fitter who shows up is already proven on the process you're running, covered by our workers' comp and liability, and backed by an 8-hour guarantee.
Welder staffing in depth
What we staff, verify, and stand behind.
Staffing welders is credential work before it's headcount work. MIG, TIG, and stick welders for structural, pipe, and fabrication work on commercial and industrial projects. Every request starts with your spec — the role level, the certifications the scope requires, the shift, and the site — and we recruit against that spec instead of forwarding whoever happens to be available. Here's what that means in practice for welder placements: the roles we fill, the credentials we verify before anyone reaches your gate, and the kinds of projects this trade typically lands on.
Roles we fill
From a single tradesperson to a full crew, these are the welder roles employers ask us for most:
- Structural welders
- Pipe welders
- MIG, TIG, and stick welders
- Combo welder-fitters
- Fabrication welders
Credentials we verify
Credentials are part of insuring the work, not paperwork. Depending on your scope, the checks we run for welders typically include:
- AWS D1.1 structural welding certification
- ASME Section IX pipe welding qualifications where the scope requires them
- Weld-test qualification to your WPS on request
- OSHA 10 / OSHA 30
- Hot-work safety awareness
Typical projects
The commercial and industrial work that most often calls for welders in our markets:
- Structural steel erection support
- Industrial process piping
- Fabrication shop work
- Plant repairs, turnarounds, and outages
Precision staffs welders from two home offices — Richmond, VA and Charlotte, NC — covering Central Virginia and the Carolinas' Piedmont, with reach to commercial and industrial job sites beyond both metros for project work. Local matters in the trades: a recruiter who already knows which welder crews are available in the market this week fills the order faster than a job posting ever will. Either office can scope a request in 15 minutes, and every placement carries Precision's workers' comp and liability — not your project's.
Welder scopes rarely travel alone. The trades most often requested alongside welders:
One request can cover all of them against a single coordinated plan.
