About Us

We are a family owned and operated company, built around hard work and dedication to our goals.

Hi, I am Vernon Wertz, the owner and operator of Wild West Welding. I had a vision and set out to prove that no matter how you get your start you can make anything out of life that you want. A mentor told me a long time ago that a mans work is a portrait of his character. I took his advise to heart. I am very passionate about what I do and take great pride in my work, as does the team I built. With hard work and passion you can accomplish anything.

I began my career as a laborer on the pipelines fresh out of high school. I progressed my way up, taking every opportunity that offered a better life for my family and myself. I started from the bottom as a laborer, progressing through several different trades (painting/coating, bending machine operator, side boom operator, foreman and some line locating). I finally found my passion as a pipe welding fabricator.

After the strain of COVID I left the oil field in search of a greater opportunity and started Wild West Welding LLC, where we specialize in custom fabrication, structural steel and misc. steel. Here we strive for excellence. You will not be disappointed in our work. 

All of our welders are Qualified welders and AWS-D1.1 Certified on unlimited thickness. 

If you have a job that requires a different or more advanced testing procedure, every member of our team is fully capable of getting the certifications required
