COMPANY HISTORY
THE EARLY DAYS
Des Eck Welding was founded in 1996 by David Chupp's father. It is built on a foundation of hard work, craftsmanship, and community values. From its early days in a small shop, the company has grown into a modern, full-capability welding and fabrication facility serving customers across the region.
A MODERN FACILITY
In 2010, David took over daily operations, continuing the family tradition while expanding capabilities with state-of-the-art equipment like laser cutters, robotic welders, and a precision press brake. Today, Des Eck Welding supports a wide range of clients, from horse farms to manufacturers, with a team of dedicated, quality-conscious employees.
