Tenement houses in the centre, flats in Ruczaj

In the tenement houses of the centre and Kazimierz, the steel railings on balconies and stairwells are decades old. Rust eats them from where they're fixed into the wall, and a cracked weld only shows once the handrail starts to wobble. A tenement balcony is often a shared part of the building, so for a bigger repair talk to the building manager first. Your own window grilles or a courtyard gate you can order without that.

In Ruczaj and Bronowice the jobs are different: a metal frame for a loft-style table, a shelving unit made of profiles, a bracket for a worktop. Owners of flats for students and tourists order grilles for ground-floor windows and repairs to broken furniture frames. On-site welding is in the catalogue, but for a larger item the pro may prefer to make it in their workshop and bring it ready.

  • Repairing a cracked balcony railing
  • Making window grilles for the ground floor

Questions about welding in Kraków

The balcony railing wobbles. Can a welder fix it?

Often yes: they cut out the corroded section, put in a new one and weld it on. If the balcony is a shared part of the tenement house, agree it with the building manager first. Add photos of where it's fixed to the wall.

Will the welder come to the flat with their equipment?

On-site welding at your place is in the catalogue. Say in the order whether the item can be taken off and brought to a workshop, because that's sometimes easier and safer.
