Cast Iron & Cast Aluminum Repair in Canton, OH
Cracked cast iron and cast aluminum housings, blocks, and parts — prepped and welded with the right procedure for a metal that does not like to be welded.
Cast iron and cast aluminum are the metals that break when you cannot afford it — housings, blocks, pump bodies, and brackets. They are also the metals that fight the welder: cast iron cracks if it cools too fast, and cast aluminum hides porosity under a bead that looks fine.
Repairing cast is a different job than welding plate. It takes the right filler, careful prep, and controlled heat so the repair does not crack worse during or after the weld. We do that work on-site where the part sits when it can be done in place.
Call and tell us what cast part cracked. A photo helps us judge whether it is a weldable repair and quote it honestly. Not every cast break should be welded — we will tell you plainly if it is not.

FAQ
Cast Iron questions
Can you weld cracked cast iron?
Often, yes — but not always. Cast iron cracks if it cools too fast, so the repair takes the right filler, careful prep, and controlled heat. Send a photo and we will tell you honestly whether it is a weldable repair.
Can you weld cast aluminum?
Often, yes. Cast aluminum hides porosity under a good-looking bead, so the prep and procedure matter. Send a photo and we will tell you whether it is a weldable repair.
What if the cast part shouldn't be welded?
We will tell you plainly. Not every cast break should be welded — some are better replaced. We would rather tell you that before we roll than weld something that will not hold.
