The situation

What do Welding & Metal Fabrication need from a website?

Homeowners and developers in Kenya need gates, window grills, balcony rails, roof trusses and water tank stands, and many start by searching for a welder near them. They want to see examples of finished work, understand how pricing works and know whether the workshop will come to site to measure. A fabrication business that answers these questions online gets asked to quote first.

Metal work is a major trade among small manufacturers. KNBS's 2016 MSME survey found fabricated metal products made up a large share of small manufacturing businesses, behind only tailoring and food processing. Most of these workshops still rely on referrals, which is exactly why a good website can open up customers beyond the neighbourhood.

We build websites for welding and fabrication workshops with galleries of past projects, a site-visit and quote request form, and service pages for gates, grills, trusses and custom steel work. Hosting comes with free SSL and can be paid for the whole year through M-Pesa.

Common problems

What usually goes wrong?

Work only comes through referrals

Most jobs come from people who saw your gate on a neighbour's house, which limits growth to a handful of estates.

Quotes without measurements

Clients want a price over the phone without dimensions, wasting time on estimates that change after the site visit.

Hard to prove quality

Rust, poor welds and weak hinges are common complaints, so new clients want evidence your work lasts.

Questions

Welding & Metal Fabrication: questions answered

How do welders find more clients in Kenya?
Beyond referrals, most homeowners search Google for gates or grills near them and check photos before calling. A website with a strong gallery, the areas you serve and an easy quote form puts your workshop in front of those buyers. Pair it with a Google Business Profile so you also appear on Maps.
Should I put gate prices on my website?
Exact prices depend on size, design, steel gauge and finish, so most workshops give guidance rather than fixed prices. Explaining what affects cost and inviting clients to send dimensions and photos helps them budget, and it reduces time spent on quotes that never turn into paying jobs.
Can clients book a site visit online?
Yes. A booking form collects the client's location, the item they need, rough measurements and a preferred date for a visit. Your team then confirms by phone or WhatsApp. Having requests written down makes it easier to plan visits by area and avoids forgotten appointments.
What photos should a fabrication website show?
Show finished gates, grills, balustrades and structures in good light, ideally with close-ups of welds, hinges and paint finish. Include some photos of work in progress at the workshop. Clients worried about quality are reassured by clean joints and proper rust treatment rather than only wide shots.
Can a small welding workshop afford a website?
A portfolio website with a quote form runs comfortably on entry-level shared hosting, paid yearly by M-Pesa, and current hosting prices are on our pricing page. Website design is quoted separately, and a focused site with a few service pages and a gallery is usually all a workshop needs to start.
How do I show I can handle large steel structures?
Create a page for developers and contractors that lists larger projects, such as roof trusses for housing blocks or steel frames, with photos and the type of client. Mention your equipment and team capacity in plain terms. That page gives procurement officers what they need to add you to a shortlist.
