Why I built this

Why I built this for welding contractors

I ran a painting company for years. I know exactly how the big lead machines treat welding contractors — shared leads, bidding wars, and a bill whether the job closes or not.

Three steps

How LeadChuck works for welding contractors

No shared leads, no bidding war. You set your fee, referrals come from contractors who already vetted the job, and you only pay when you accept.

1

Step 1: Set Your Price

Build your LeadChuck welding profile with your certifications (AWS, ASME, API), processes (MIG, TIG, stick, flux core), materials (steel, stainless, aluminum), and industry specialties.

Step 2: Get Referrals

General contractors, fabricators, industrial facilities, and construction managers refer welding work to you when projects require certified welding that their own crews don't provide.

Step 3: Close Jobs

Pay a referral fee on booked welding contracts. Contractors who refer you earn their share — and keep you on their preferred vendor list for every future welding need.

The math

A worked example, not a customer story.

Here's how a season can compound for a welding on LeadChuck. The numbers below are an example scenario, not a customer report.

Your net lead cost: $25 for $4500+ in revenue. Plus $75 earned in outbound referrals.

Straight answers

Questions, answered.

Does LeadChuck handle specialized welding certifications like AWS D1.1 structural or API pipeline?

Yes. List your specific certifications on your profile so referring contractors who require those credentials can match to you specifically — not just 'a welder.'

Can mobile welders receive service call leads through LeadChuck?

Absolutely. Mobile welding for repair work is in high demand from industrial facilities, farms, and construction sites. Configure your profile for mobile service and define your service radius.

What industries generate the most welding referrals on LeadChuck?

Construction, industrial maintenance, marine fabrication, and agricultural equipment repair generate the highest referral volume. Custom residential metalwork (railings, gates, furniture) is growing rapidly.

What referral fee is appropriate for welding work?

Welding referral fees on LeadChuck typically range from $75–$200 per booked job. Industrial contract referrals that generate recurring work often justify higher setup fees of $150–$300.
