The mark on the drawing
The flag means we come to you.
On a fabrication drawing every weld is called out with a symbol like this one: a reference line, an arrow to the joint, and a shape that says what kind of weld goes there. The small flag at the bend has one meaning. Field weld. It tells the fabricator that this joint gets welded where it stands, on site, not back at the shop. Most of what we do carries that flag.

Where the work is
Jobsites, plants and farms.
Three kinds of place where the drawing says field weld, or where nothing has a drawing at all.
The jobsite
Steel set by someone else, connections and fixes made after it stands. Misc metals, embeds, the piece the drawing forgot.
The plant
Process piping, guards, frames and repairs on equipment that cannot leave the building. Done around the line, not instead of it.
The farm
The country around Hartford. Buckets, hitches, implements and gates: the things that break on a farm and cannot come to a shop. The rig comes down the drive.
About
A family run welding service in Hartford, Wisconsin
Washington County and [SERVICE RADIUS]
RND Welding LLC is a Wisconsin welding service based in Hartford, in Washington County, registered with the state in November 2020 and full time since 2025. The work is mobile welding, onsite repairs, shop fabrication, production runs and miscellaneous metals. Look for us on jobsites or in plants.
Hartford sits in the southwest corner of Washington County, on the Dodge County line, about 12 miles from West Bend and 30 from Milwaukee, with farms on three sides and industry along the highway. A welding rig based here can reach a plant floor, a building site and a farm shop in the same day.
The Washington County Builders Association lists the business as RND Welding LLC and Land Works, and the same Facebook page that shows the welding shows excavation and site work like this.

The order of work
What to Expect
- Call or text. Say what broke or what you need made, where it is, and whether it can move. A photo with something in the frame for scale answers half the questions.
- A straight answer. Whether it is a rig job or a shop job, what it will take, and when.
- The rig comes to it, or it comes to the shop. Equipment, piping and structures get welded where they stand. Parts and batches get made on the bench.
- The weld. Old weld out, joint prepped, welded, cleaned up, and the swarf swept before we leave.
- Whatever gets thrown our way. [PROCESSES AND METALS: Ryan, the list of processes and metals you run goes here, in your words.]

Common questions
Questions People Ask
Do you come to the job?
Yes. Mobile and onsite work is the first thing on our list. The rig carries the welder, so equipment repairs, plant work and structural fixes happen where the piece sits. If it is small enough to move and would be better done on the bench, we can bring it back to the shop instead.
What is a field weld?
A weld made on site, where the piece is installed, instead of in a fabrication shop. On a drawing it is marked with a small flag on the weld symbol. Field welds cover repairs to equipment that cannot be moved, connections made after steel is set, and changes to piping and structures inside a working plant.
Do you take shop work as well?
Yes. Shop fabrication and production runs are the other half of the business: frames, brackets, bent rail, one off parts and batches made to a drawing or a sample. Bring the part, the sketch or the broken original, and we will tell you what it takes to make it.
How do I get a quote for a repair?
Call or text (262) 470-7035 and send a photo of the break with something in the frame for scale. Say where it is and whether it can move. Most repair quotes come down to three things: the metal, the access, and how much of the old weld has to come out first.
Where is RND Welding based?
Hartford, Wisconsin, in Washington County, about 12 miles from West Bend and 30 from Milwaukee. There is no storefront to visit, because most of the work happens on the customer's site. The exact towns and the radius are still being confirmed for this page, so call with your address.
