Retrofits & Rewelds
Structural and Mechanical Welding for System Upgrades and Modifications
Outlaw Industries provides retrofit welding and rewelding services for projects that require structural adjustments, layout changes, or reinforcement of aging components. Whether it’s correcting original work, modifying an existing system, or preparing a structure for increased load or use, our certified team delivers safe and code-compliant welds in the field or in-shop.
What Are Retrofit Upgrades & Rewelds?
Retrofitting involves modifying an existing structure or system to meet new requirement such as increased loading, new equipment, code updates, or usage changes. Rewelding refers to improving or repairing original welds that were improperly executed or degraded over time.
Our services include:
- Structural Steel Reinforcement – Welding additional plates, brackets, or stiffeners to existing beams or frames.
- Connection Rewelds & Repairs – Correcting cracked, failed, or out-of-spec welds.
- Equipment Layout Modifications – Adjusting welded supports or frames to fit new mechanical or electrical components.
- Retrofit Bracket & Mount Additions – Weld-on upgrades to add support for new loads or features.
- Code Compliance Welding – Bringing legacy connections up to current CWB or project-specific standards.
We work within active job sites, facilities, or during scheduled shutdowns to minimize disruption and maximize safety.
Our Process for Retrofit Welding
