A Legacy Continued: Welcoming T&R Repair to the Family

We have some wonderful news to share! As of May 15th, 2026, Torch & Regulator Repair (T&R Repair) has officially joined the Central Welding Supply family.

For nearly five decades, the Fitzpatrick family has built a reputation for excellence. Since 1979, T&R Repair has been the Northwest’s go-to resource for gas apparatus expertise but more than that, they’ve been a pillar of the community and a long-trusted partner to all of us at Central Welding Supply.

Honoring the Past, Building the Future!

This isn't just a business transition; it’s a commitment to a legacy. We are truly honored to build upon the foundation of great service that Tom Fitzpatrick and his family have provided for almost 50 years. Our goal is to carry that torch forward with the same dedication and technical heart that you’ve come to expect.

What You Can Expect:

We want this transition to be as seamless as possible for you.

• Location: Operations will continue at the familiar Tacoma shop at 2526 Tacoma Ave South.

• The Team: Tom and the T&R crew are staying right where they are to ensure you receive the same expert care.

• There will be no disruptions to service. While you may notice some slight variations in part numbers and descriptions on your paperwork, the quality of repairs and the pricing will remain consistent with your previous T&R billing.
