I’ve always had a great experience at this shop. Ive only been welding for a couple years as i write this and the guys are always ready with solid, encouraging advice and knowledgeable information. Not to mention they always have everything I need. I could go on but the long and short of it it 10/5 stars will buy from here every time.
Saturday at 11:35am, we realized we needed a welding torch setup to finish a job. Called up Advanced Welding and spoke with John. I was able to confirm they had welding torches and also tanks so I could get back on the job right away on a Saturday.Arrived shortly before noon and was able to get back to the job shortly after noon. Thanks for the help and crash course on the equipment. Glad to see I can also pick up a new welder and all the supplies at competitive prices, while supporting local businesses. John proved to me that the local shops really do go the extra mile to get you taken care of.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Perfect place to get everything you need to start welding. They wont try and sell you on things you dont need as a beginner and have a wealth of knowledge that they enjoy sharing. As long as I am in Milwaukee I will be a customer of AWS. Thanks guys!
They have any gas you could ever need, from pure Argon to Trimix (90% helium - 7.5% Argon - 2.5% CO2). A huge selection of welders from Eastwood, Miller, and more. They sell CK Worldwide and Weldcote gear too.I was able to set up my HF titanium 200 unlimited to run a Pro grade CK worldwide TIG torch with the supplies they had on the shelf! Highly recommend stopping in and checking their shop out, walk-ins are welcomed like family and the customer service is unmatched.
Best Welding Supply store! Great prices and huge selection and they make you feel like family! I highly recommend this place!
The best welding store in SE Wisconsin! Just went in for the first time to replace a welder that was stolen and I needed one right away. They had everything I needed. The staff was knowledgeable and super friendly. I didnt get the attitude you get from every other welding store Ive ever been too. This is the only place I will buy welding supplies from.
Nice to actually have people that know and care about your needs! Hats off to Advanced Welding Supply! Keep up the great customer service!Thank you!!
I went on September 13 to pick up a part for my friends welder. Which took a few messages back and forth until he could figure out what I actually needed. It was very helpful to take so much of Duke’s time. But he figured it out and parts were ordered. I ended up leaving with the parts and a new welder as well! Chris Albanese the son in the father/ son team helped me register it immediately for the rebate from Forney. Congratulations on you building expansion and thank you again for everything.
Went there today to upgrade to a bigger gas cylinder. Traded in the one I personally owned for a bigger one which I was skeptical if they would even allow. Turns out they did and got everything squared away super quick and easy. Great customer service and will be back there for all of my welding needs in the future!
Would highly recommend this company! Extremely helpful very knowledgeable easy to work with!!!! Air gas treated me like poop. These people are the best!!! Family owned customer service oriented smiling faces!
Outstanding customer service, very knowledgeable. After going to a few of the bigger retailers and big box stores, I called up Chris at AWS and I found myself at their store shortly thereafter. Chris and his team answered all of my questions, addressed all of my concerns, and the ones he could not, he contacted various reps from their vendors and was able to quickly provide me with accurate answers. I am looking forward to cultivating a long lasting relationship with this family owned and operated business. Would highly recommend for all of your welding and metal working needs. Thanks again AWS!
I called advanced to ask about a specific equipment and Chris answered the call. He took the time to walk through the questions I had about different machines. He provided personal service and was available and knowledgeable to discuss my needs and concerns. Chris was more interested in helping me make the right choice for my needs rather than pushing me to make any random purchase. In today’s world anything can be bought through Amazon all day long but you will not get the quality service and care that you get through a solid family owned business. I am glad these still exist and people are willing to take the time to understand your needs before telling you what they want to sell. Sales and service in one location is a good thing! Thank you you for the great service Chris!
Absolutely the best service around and unbeatable prices. I can always count on Advanced Welding Supply for both my business and personal needs. They are always helpful and knowledgeable!
These guys are the real deal.. They answer your questions in detail and give solid advice. Bonus, family owned, support local!
Great small family owned company very nice people and really reasonable I recommended them for anything u need
Best prices in town. Always friendly staff and they are willing to help your with your gas or welding questions. Are you sick of big corporations, give advance welding a try and support local business.
Went in to grab leads/stinger and some rod for a welder I just purchased. Didnt have too much knowledge in how to set up a welder. Chris took the time to explain everything he was setting me up with, and gave me suggestions and recommendations that really helped. Great store, will be using them for all of my welding related purchases.
Folks worked there are very friendly and helpful and had a chance to worked with son of owner who is also super helpful and friendly. Glad to support our local businesses. I would recommend anyone looking to buy welding equiptment to check them out.
This is by far the best gas supply in the area!Awesome customer service. Every single employee that Ive spoken to has been more than helpful!!!
I needed shielding gas for a brazing job I was doing and for a TIG welder I had bought. My LWC around me wanted about $500 on average for a 125 cuft cylinder then I found Advanced Welding Supplies ad online and called them up to make sure the price was correct because it was like half what the others wanted and I have talked both John and Chris and they are extremely polite and answered all my questions I had. And even though it is a 135 mile drive, it is worth it for the great customer service, prices and supporting a family owned business and I will continue to go here for my welding needs.
Kurt was very helpful and didn’t hesitate answering any questions I had. He made suggestions to help maximize my budget which was helpful with being new to welding. His friendliness alone made it worth the trip over from Janesville. I’ll be back for sure.
Excellent customer service, prices, and products. Theyve had customers for 10+ years and that says allot. I was recommended them by a friend and wouldnt hesitate to recommended them to anyone.Awesome family owned business!
The leading one stop shop for anything and everything welding!Ive always experienced top notch customer service.High quality products and consumables at an affordable price.Family owned and operated, I highly recommend giving Advanced Welding Supply a chance.
These guys have a wide selection of unique parts that are hard to come by. If they dont have what you need theyre capable of getting it.Excellent customer serviceWill be a repeat customer.
Very friendly people, extremely happy to support a family business! My suppliers from now on for sure!
Fantastic small family owned business. Ill definitely return!
Found everything I needed here for a great price. The gentleman at the desk was extremely helpful and polite. Cant recommend this shop enough. THANK YOU!
Top notch service and very fair pricing!! I drove an over an hour because they were the only place open on Saturdays. I would make the drive again even if there were closer options. Thank you Chris!
Very friendly and helpful. They have pointed me in the right direction evey time I have been there. And it helps to have there knowledge when your a novice, Trust me. This one of those places where service comes before sales. Very few of those places left.👍👌
Always helpful whenever i have been in! Very nice people!
Great people to work with. Excellent service.
I have placed a number of orders through Advanced Welding and I have always been overly pleased with the speed and quality of service. Chris, Kurt and the rest of the team continuously go above and beyond to make sure our expectations are exceeded. I can confirm that this is one of the kindest and hardworking groups of vendor associates that I work with on a pretty regular basis, as they will do whatever they can to make sure we are taken care of. I will always stand by recommending Advanced Welding!
Super helpful have just about anything youd need in stock.
Very friendly. Great place for car audio power cable. 1/0 up to 4/0. Pure copper.
Great staff, trusted service, and always comes through with the supplies.If you have any questions, they’re always open for discussion.
As a beginner I have found advanced welding supply to be the most helpful supply store in the area. Their sales staff is very friendly, helpful and willing to work with you to answer any questions you might have. There prices and services are best that I have found and would recommend to anyone who is looking to get into welding!
Extremely knowledgeable and helpful, wish I could give them a sixth star.
Extremely pleasant staff. Would highly recommend!
Did a propane exchange in quick fashionGreat value and I’ll be back
Chris was a very nice person. He was happy to help and it was open on a Saturday which is the only time I could get my supplies. Thank you
Excellent service and I met the family! Easy to work with and great prices. I purchased a 20# co2 tank and it is the best price in town. Easy to eat and exchange is best prices on exchange as well. Thank you John and Chris Albanese!
Ive been to this location a few times now, I live fairly close. Everyone was extremely helpful and willing to give tips to a newbie getting into fabrication. pricing has been great on everything. I was able to exchange an old gas bottle and they kindly ran me through how gas bottle certification and sizing works. If your looking for some help and hardware, I would definitely recommend this location.
Pleasure to deal with. They are very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Even with the hour drive each way their prices are still unbeatable. And I have a big boy place 5 min away.I bought an Eastwood MIG 135 last month with a tank and wire. Nice machine to work with. I had planned on purchasing a 20cf tank, but for their price (filled bottle) I went with an 80cf. Very glad I did. Back again yesterday for some add on parts and a refill.I will continue to come back to them in the future. And proudly support our small businesses in Wisconsin.
They are awesome!! Great business people and the lowest prices I have found. It is kind of a haul for me to get to them but its worh every bit of the drive. I hate dealing with big box places and they took care of me and i got what i needed at a price that was unbeatable. I highly recommend them !
Great folks to deal with. Everything you need for welding, and a few very nice items for the home brewer or soda maker. Very reasonable prices as well. Their normal price matched Amazon without having to wait or worry about the hassle of return if the item was defective. Thanks gentlemen!
Great one stop shop for all my tig and plasma consumables! Service is always very helpful.
Absolutely the best place in town for welding supplies. Cheaper gas than Airgas and extremely helpful employees!
Just purchased some tig consumables from here seems like the best prices in town for gas refills beating the big corporate Airgas. Come here and give them a try, family owned friendly people.
Kurt made the experience much more pleasant, he has a great attitude and provided more of a ‘family business’ atmosphere than other places. I will be returning in the future.
Nice store with good selection of equipment and consumables. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They took the time to explain pros and cons and offer advice on purchasing a welder, but were not pushy. Prices were comparable to online shopping. No reason I can see not to give them a visit.
Fair prices (especially good on shielding gas), helpful staff.
Everyone at Advanced Welding has been very helpful with my recent purchases. From what Ive seen their idea of customer service is to treat everyone like a friend.After I made a few purchases I price checked them only to find out what Chris told me was true I am saving money on every time, it is definitely worth the drive from lake country.
Great place. Love the new store! Very friendly employees. Most items are in stock and I usually get same day delivery. Best Gas prices in Milwaukee. A definite must for all your welding supply needs.
If you want the best customer service and great selection, come here. The team knows their stuff and are always willing to help you out. Highly recommend.
Great service and excellent prices. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly, always willing to go the extra mile to help you out. The fact that they are open on Saturdays is also really nice; a bit of a trek for me, but always well worth it.
Great place! People here really know the hose and fittings world. Not some group of paper pushers real good techs. Highly recommend Been coming here for years
Advanced Welding is my go to place for welding machines and consumables. Fantastic place, great people. Prices are super realistic. If you have any fabrication needs go over to advanced. You will not be disappointed one bit.
I own a small fabrication company outside of Chicago. Some of the local vendors dont have what I need when I need it. Its a long haul for me but is make the drive every time to Advanced because of the prompt and friendly service, experience, and professionalism this company brings. The prices on welding gas is half of what I pay at my old supplier. Be sure to stop in.
Great place always have what I need. Chris keep up the good work. Cant wait to go back!
Very friendly staff especially chris awesome place always helpful one way or another. Very recommended
Needed a spool gun hose connection and they understood what I needed and had the parts in stock. Also learned that they are willing to exchange the cylinders that own!
Best suppliers Ive ever dealt with! They treat me well enough that i go out of my way to use them, their honest and fair and really care about meeting your needs. Thanks guys.
Great guys! I love going here, very affordable. Easy to find and its right off the highway.
Great people, always have the materials I need and are always willing to give advice. Prices are reasonable and they keep a well maintained shop.-Nick
Great experience bought a welder from them bar with everything needed a great deal and they were very knowledgeable and were great to work with
I disvovered advanced about a year ago and have been very pleased with them. Its a good professional supply house. Local in the positive sense. They value your business and do their best to make sure you get what you need.
Chris has been very helpful with all of my questions and stocks most supplies. Always willing to go the extra mile and stay a little late when needed. Pricing on gas cyls is the best in town. If you havent been buying from them youve been missing out!
These guys are amazing - really knowledgeable, very helpful and great prices. My go to for all my supplies. Also, they are now open on Saturday so that is really convenient for me.
Went to buy gas for tig welding. The staffwas very friendly and easy to work with. Large selection of tig welding supplies. Will be returning to.
John and Chris are great to work with. If that dont have what you need in stock, they will special order it for you at no additional charge. Consumables are competitively priced and always in stock.
Love my Eastwood welder, they set me up with everything I needed to get the job done right
If you need anything to do with welding, or plasma cutters this is the place to go. I just started to weld back in January and I had no idea what I was doing, or what I needed to buy.I went to this store, and explained my situation to the owners son and he immediately showed me exactly what I needed. He didnt take advantage of my situation and try to sell me some over priced, expensive gloves and welding equipment. He told me exactly what he recommended, and gave me a few options and took the time to explain the benefits and cons of each one. I walked out of that store with confidence and the ability to start welding on my 1967 mustang. Its been 2 months and every time I need anything to do with welding, this is my go to shop. It is family owned, local, and everyone who works there is extremely experienced.Their prices are nearly unbeatable, I saved nearly $120 on my high pressure 75/25 gas cylinder by getting it here, also I save an additional $15 every time I exchange it for another one. I called nearly a dozens places for the same gas, and no one was able to beat this stores price. Its just not the gas you save money on, you will save on all other equipment in the store. The same gas regulator here was $40-$100 cheaper then buying it from amazon, Safegas, or Lowes. This store has saved me nearly $250 in just a few short months.I cannot say enough good things about this store, I will never not recommend this store to people, and the best part is, after a few visits, they will greet you by your name.
Super helpful guys, They even stayed after hours until i arrived to purchase a tank !!
Very friendly, helpful staff! Walked my through everything I needed to know. Great prices. Awsome family owned business!
Advanced welding supply is the place to go for your welding needs. Chris and John know there stuff and can set you up. Whether your just starting out or have been doing it for awhile they have what you need. I bought my welder from them and will continue to buy more welding supplys. Great advice and a friendly place to go.
Best place around
New to welding. Service OUTSTANDING! Fair balanced advice. Thank God for independent businesses! You dont go here...your a fool!
Impressive prices, even more impressive knowledge and customer service
Very friendly and helpful.
Purchased a Eastwood 250MPi with spool gun for aluminium welding. I needed it asap! I called and talked with Chris Albanese at 3:45pm and drove 45 minutes to pick up before they closed at 5pm. They had the welder, spool gun, and all the accessories ready for pickup!Chris provided the highest level of customer service you could ask for, making sure I had EVERYTHING that was needed to start welding aluminium. I didnt feel pressured to buy ANYTHING unnecessary and Chris showed me the most cost effective option, as well as his recommendation for each product that was necessary, and not included with the welder.I would have paid a premium for this level of service but actually got a better price than ON EASTWOODS WEBSITE! No shipping cost, free setup of the welder, and local friendly customer service. I will be going to Chris Albanese at ADVANCED WELDING SUPPLY COMPANY INC. for ALL of my welding supplies from now on!I highly recommend Advanced Welding Supply Company!
Great service, have useful items for sale, they dont try to sell you something you dont need. Bought a welder there and all the accessories, theyre very knowledgeable on the product.
Awesome products very good pricing excellent customer service the only welding supply place I would ever recommend or go to
Fast and friendly service.
Friendly, knowledgable, affordable. They have everything you need. Caters to hobbyists and the career welder. I shop here for consumables and wire and cheaper than online and big box. I come here for gas refills too.

Stopped in to check prices on CO2 for my home brew beer Keezer.
