Aluminum Welding Requires the Right Process
Aluminum behaves differently from ordinary steel. It transfers heat quickly, forms a surface oxide and requires proper cleaning, preparation, filler material and heat control.
JG’s evaluates the material, thickness, condition, access and intended use before determining whether an aluminum project is suitable for welding. Some damaged or heavily contaminated components may require additional preparation or may not be practical to repair.
Aluminum Projects JG’s Can Evaluate
Contact JG’s to discuss whether your specific project is a good fit. Material, condition and intended use determine whether work can be accepted.

Aluminum welding is an important part of many custom boat and marine fabrication projects. JG’s can evaluate qualifying aluminum boat components, modifications and repair needs based on the material’s condition, thickness, location and intended use.
For complete custom boat builds and broader marine fabrication information, visit our Custom Boat Fabrication page.

TIG welding is often selected for aluminum projects that require precise heat control and a clean, detailed weld. MIG welding can also be used for certain aluminum applications when the material, thickness, wire, shielding gas and equipment are appropriate.
The correct process depends on the specific project. Customers do not need to decide whether TIG or MIG is required before contacting JG’s. Send photos and project details so Joshua can review the application.
Aluminum Welding at Our Bunkie Shop
JG’s operates a physical fabrication shop at 709 MacArthur St. in Bunkie. Many aluminum projects are best completed at the shop, where the work can be properly cleaned, positioned, prepared and welded with the appropriate equipment.
Mobile service may be available for qualifying projects, but aluminum welding on location depends on the material, access, weather, cleanliness, shielding requirements, electrical requirements and safety conditions.
Call before bringing a project to the shop or requesting mobile service.
