ONE WELDER, ONE STANDARD, FROM ESTIMATE TO FINAL PASS.

Johnstown sits across Larimer and Weld counties, where new subdivisions, commercial yards, and working farms share the same roads. That mix calls for a welder who can move from a residential stair stringer in the morning to a feedlot panel repair by afternoon without lowering the bar. We work carbon steel, aluminum, and stainless steel with the process that fits each alloy and load. You deal directly with the owner, so answers come fast and accountability never gets passed down a chain of middlemen.

CLEAN JOINTS TODAY, FEWER CALLBACKS NEXT WINTER.

Most weld failures start before the arc strikes: a dirty joint, a skipped preheat, or the wrong filler for the base metal. We grind to clean metal, fit up tight, and control heat on every pass. When Colorado cold drops a part below freezing, we warm it before welding, the same practice structural codes require. The result is a joint that holds through freeze, thaw, and hard daily use.

What We Do

OUR WELDING SERVICES

Ten services cover nearly every metal problem a Northern Colorado home, farm, or business runs into. Each one is handled on site or in the shop, depending on what the job actually demands.

Structural Steel Beams & Reinforcement

Steel beams, columns, and reinforcement plates carry loads that aging wood framing can no longer handle. We fabricate, fit, and weld structural members to engineered plans for basements, shops, additions, and commercial buildings, with connections sized for the real load.

Custom Metal Structures

Carports, shade structures, equipment shelters, and steel frames get built around your site, your snow, and your use. We plan the layout with you, cut and weld every member, and set a frame that stays square for years.

Custom Stairs

Steel stairs give decks, mezzanines, lofts, and commercial entries a staircase that feels solid underfoot. We measure rise and run on site, fabricate stringers and treads to code dimensions, and finish each set with railings that match.

Welding Repair & Maintenance

Cracked brackets, broken hinges, split trailer tongues, and worn hitches all deserve a proper repair instead of a temporary patch. We clean out the failure, find out why it broke, and rebuild the joint stronger than it was.

Wrought Iron Fabrication & Repair

Gates, fence panels, railings, and decorative accents in wrought iron style add security and curb appeal at the same time. We build new pieces to your design and restore rusted or broken sections so they match the original work.

Commercial & Industrial Welding

Businesses need welding that keeps production moving, from repaired racks to fabricated platforms, machine guards, and structural fixes around working equipment. We schedule around your operation, follow hot-work safety practices, and document what was done on every job.

Common Questions

frequently asked
questions.

These are the questions farm owners, homeowners, and business managers ask most before a welding or fabrication project. If yours is not listed here, send it our way and we will answer it directly.

  • What is the difference between standard steel fencing and wrought iron?

    Standard steel fencing is built for utility, while wrought iron style work adds decorative elements, heavier bar stock, and precise welded joints. Most modern wrought iron is actually mild steel, shaped and finished to deliver both appearance and security.

  • How does on-site welding work for large equipment?

    Instead of hauling a machine to a shop, we drive the welding equipment, tools, and material to it. Rhoades Welding handles most loader, trailer, and implement repairs where they sit around Johnstown, CO, saving transport time and cost.

  • When should I repair farm equipment instead of replacing it?

    Repair makes sense when the frame and core structure are still sound and the failure sits in a hitch, bracket, or joint. If the main frame is badly cracked or rusted through, replacement usually becomes the better investment.

  • Can welded pipe fencing handle livestock pressure?

    Yes. Pipe fencing with continuous, fully fused welds and posts set below the frost line holds up to cattle and horses leaning, rubbing, and pushing every day, and it outlasts wire fence in high-traffic pens.

  • How do you prepare a site for structural steel beam installation?

    Preparation starts with accurate field measurements and load calculations, usually from an engineer's plan. We confirm bearing points, temporary shoring, and access for the steel, so the beam goes in once and sits exactly where the design calls for it.
