47 Years of Industry Experience

Where Experience Meets Excellence

Founded by Paul Nelke in 2005, East Coast Iron Shop was built on a simple goal: to provide high-quality welding services at affordable prices. With 47 years of industry experience, Paul combined his hands-on expertise with a commitment to dependable craftsmanship, creating a company customers can rely on for projects of every size.

Growing Stronger With Every Project

What began as Paul's vision has grown into a team of expert welders serving residential, commercial, industrial, and marine clients throughout South Jersey, parts of Pennsylvania, and Delaware. From custom fabrication and mobile welding to structural steel, aluminum, stainless steel, railings, and equipment repairs, every project reflects the same attention to detail and professional workmanship.
