About Luthers Welding

Luther's Welding has operated in Bristol, Rhode Island since 1937. The business began as a small welding shop, incorporated in 1971, and two years later narrowed its focus to marine fabrication. The shop provides custom metal fabrication, welding, CNC machining, and sheet metal design. Core processes include rolling, sawing, and press brake forming, allowing production of custom marine tanks (fuel, water, holding), OEM and aftermarket marine hardware such as mastheads and chain plates, and sheet metal components for utility trucks. Assembly and leak testing are performed in-house, while finishing services are sourced as needed. The facility handles projects from prototype through medium-volume runs with an emphasis on fast turnaround. The primary customer base is the marine industry, serving boat builders and owners in the U.S. and Canada. The company also fabricates sheet metal parts for utility trucks and has produced items for various non-marine industrial clients. Tank designs can be supplied by the customer, developed in-house, or reverse engineered from existing components, and are built to American Boat and Yacht Council standards. Luther's Welding emphasizes personal service and close customer partnerships, a byproduct of its small-company structure. The staff includes welders with decades of experience and certified qualifications, supported by a machine shop and engineering department each with over 35 years of expertise. The family oversight model is intended to ensure that every product leaving the facility meets the company's reputation for reliability.
