Why Join TLC
Established and respected company
Specialist commercial builds (not general fabrication)
Stable weekday hours
Supportive team environment
Clear opportunity to grow your skills
TLC Auto Refinishing Ltd is a well-established commercial vehicle body builder with over 20 years of industry success. Based in Feltham near Heathrow, we specialise in high-quality, bespoke vehicle body builds for fleet operators across the UK.
Due to continued growth, we are looking for an experienced Fabricator / MIG Welder / Vehicle Body Builder to join our skilled workshop team!
This is a hands-on role building commercial vehicle bodies from chassis upwards — not repetitive production line work.
The Role
You will be responsible for fabricating and assembling commercial vehicle bodies to high industry standards.
Your duties will include:
MIG welding (TIG welding desirable but not essential)
Fabricating and assembling vehicle bodies from chassis level
Reading and interpreting technical drawings and build specifications
Working with steel, aluminium, fibreglass, and timber components
Cutting, drilling, fitting, and assembling parts accurately
Installing tail lifts (training provided)
Ensuring all builds meet safety and quality standards
This is skilled workshop work requiring precision, mechanical understanding, and pride in workmanship.
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a reliable and experienced fabricator who:
Has strong MIG welding experience
Has fabrication experience (commercial vehicle, coachbuilding, plant, or similar desirable)
Can read and work from technical drawings
Takes pride in producing high-quality builds
Works well independently and within a team
Is reliable, punctual, and committed long-term
Experience in commercial vehicle body building, HGV fabrication, or coachbuilding is highly desirable — but we welcome strong fabrication backgrounds from related industries.
What’s in It for You
£40,000–£45,000+ per year depending on experience
£1,000 joining bonus
£100 monthly attendance bonus (up to £1,200 per year)
Optional Saturday overtime paid at time and a half
28 days holiday including bank holidays and Christmas shutdown
NEST pension scheme
Ongoing training and skill development (including tail lift fitting)
Free onsite parking
Clean, well-equipped workshop
Long-term stability in a growing, family-run business
