Quality Site Welding originated in the spread of natural gas to regional towns. Crews digging trenches, laying and welding pipes and connecting houses brought gas to Drouin, Warragul, Longwarry and Trafalgar.

The original three partners started business in 1973 and were narrowed to one when David Coade became the sole owner. David diversified the business expanding workshop capabilities. Key customers today range from mining, water and waste treatment, pump stations, local businesses and the rural community.

David developed a unique business known for its quality approach and a willingness to tackle difficult tasks, well engineered solutions and staff with a strong work ethic. David sold the business in 2003 but still provides welcome support today.
