Josef Gas gives first class customer service. They are thebest in giving technical support. Their knowledge in the various welding processes surpasses all other welding stores that I have done business with over the past 10 years.
They have an in-house welding specialist who has real-world experience and is results orientated. His recommendations I have benefited for many time.
Prices are very competitive and most things are available in store.
I’ve had a great experience every time I’ve worked with the team here. Karan, Surbhi, and Nathan at the order desk are always so helpful and on top of things. They respond quickly, offer practical solutions, and make the whole process smooth and stress-free. It’s rare to find a team that’s not only efficient but also genuinely friendly. Really appreciate their consistency and commitment to good service — keeps me coming back!
The customer service here is A1 and the prices cannot be beat! I have had the pleasure of coming here for years and they treat me like family everytime.
I highly recommend Josef Gas, you will NEVER be disappointed.

I’m shocked, I was looking for a particular set of electrodes I couldn’t find anywhere in the GTA for decent prices, but I found these guys and they made the entire process extremely simple and smooth, I got what I was looking for at half my original price, and left away satisfied.
