Default Aluminum Welding

I have a small utility trailer that I made several years ago and I used a local guy (Smith Metals in Merrifield - no longer there) to make some diamond tread 1/8 inch thick aluminum fenders. Over the years the welds have started to give way (only welded on one side then grounded down) and I need to have a couple of places re-welded - straight lines and a couple of corners.......

Anybody know of someone in the Fairfax VA area or maybe at one of the military base hobby shops who can do this?

Thanks....

I'm no expert, but it looks to me like your problem is that screwdriver. Take it out and you should have yourself a good looking set of fenders once again.
