About TRUE REPAIR.
TRUE REPAIR is a Red Seal certified welding repair company based in Carstairs, Alberta. We specialise in clean, controlled TIG repairs on aluminum, stainless, and steel — with fixed written pricing, careful workmanship, and repairs that hold.
Built on real experience
TRUE REPAIR was founded by Kolt Tebb — a Red Seal journeyman welder who started working in shops young, learning MIG and TIG through hands-on repair work, apprenticeship training, and long hours solving real metal problems.
After graduating at the top of his trade training, Kolt worked under a German fabrication mentor who demanded precision, discipline, and welds that perform in the real world. That standard defines the work at TRUE REPAIR today.
No rushing. No guessing. No surprise bills. Controlled heat, clear communication, and work done right the first time.
Earned the hard way
Kolt has been building with his hands since he was a kid in his dad's garage — but real craftsmanship came later, through mistakes, persistence, and thousands of hours refining technique one weld at a time.
At 20, he earned his Red Seal Journeyman certification and spent the next several years building the operation on evenings and weekends before stepping fully independent in 2024. TRUE REPAIR launched its fixed-price system in 2024 — 50 five-star reviews and a perfect 5.0 rating since.
The mission is straightforward: deliver clean, reliable welding repairs without the drama that usually comes with trades work.
Where it started — and what it built
Early projects, first shop work, and the foundation behind the standards we bring to every repair today.
TRUE REPAIR today
Based in Carstairs — about 45 minutes north of Calgary — we provide fixed-price welding repairs and structural rebuilds for trailers, equipment, and working metal across Calgary and Central Alberta.
The goal isn't just to weld something back together. It's to restore strength, protect surrounding components, and give you confidence the repair will last.
How TRUE REPAIR works
Every repair starts with photos. We assign the correct fixed-price package, confirm the price in writing, and you approve before anything starts. No hourly surprises. No vague estimates. A 12-month workmanship warranty on every job.
Send photos anytime. We'll confirm scope and price before starting.
