A bit about us – Our history and what we do

Our owner, Paul Saxon took over the company back in 2009 which was formerly known as Colm Steel & Tools. He opened a second store in 2017 in Dublin and has been instrumental in increasing brand awareness around Pro-Weld across Ireland.

The business was first established in 1974. Our goal is to provide a 5-star customer service and our team is committed to this. We have a retail store in Athlone where we have over 12,000 square feet of retail and warehouse space. We also have a second store and offices in Dublin. We stock over 11,000 different product lines, everything from fasteners & fixings to Mig Welders & Plasma Cutters.

We are agents for high-tech welding manufacturers including Migatronic, Jasic and SWP. Demonstrations of welding plants and equipment in stock, are available on request – without any obligation to buy. We understand that buying equipment can seem risky so every month we offer free training/demonstrations on different types of welding plants so that customers can see the type of quality they are buying.

Our vision is to is to provide a 5 star level of Client Service.
