Pipe Welding in Detroit: what to expect

Pipe welding in Detroit supports steam and hot water heating systems, chilled water, process lines in plants, compressed air, and fuel gas piping. Commercial and industrial buildings across Detroit, Dearborn, Warren and Pontiac still run many older steam systems that need repairs, and new plants and build-outs need new process piping.

Pipe welds are qualified to specific procedures. Welders are tested for the process and position they weld, and pressure piping work usually follows ASME codes, with inspection and pressure testing before the system is put in service. Carbon steel is most common, with stainless for sanitary and corrosive service. Code work is done by a licensed mechanical contractor that employs or subcontracts qualified pipe welders.

For welder testing, see pipe welding certification. For process systems, compare pipefitters or read about industrial welding and Metro Detroit welders.

Codes, permits and certifications

Michigan licenses mechanical contractors by classification through LARA, including Hydronic Heating and Cooling and Process Piping and Fuel Gas Piping, and mechanical work needs a mechanical permit. Boiler work has separate Michigan licensing and boiler permits. Confirm the contractor's license on the LARA lookup and ask for current pipe welder qualification records for the procedure on your job.

How to compare quotes

  1. Confirm the mechanical contractor license classification on LARA.
  2. Ask for welder qualification records for the pipe procedure.
  3. Ask what testing and inspection are included.
  4. Confirm who pulls the mechanical or boiler permit.
  5. Get the scope and testing plan in writing.
