Dennis Butts and his wife Theresa certainly don’t have typical day jobs. Together, they own Quality Marine of Alaska and have assembled some of the best welders and pipe fitters in the business. ALASKA STEEL MEN, premiering Friday, August 30, at 10 PM E/P on the Discovery Channel, will take viewers to the harsh environment of Kodiak, Alaska, alongside the extreme metal welders who have some of the most dangerous jobs around. “You name it, we fix it,” Butts said. “No matter how tough you are, Mother Nature is tougher. We’re talking boats sinking to the bottom of the ocean. You make a mistake, people die.” Butts’ weapon against Mother Nature is fire and steel. From welding underwater in icy cold seas to stop massive boats and oil barges from sinking, to sealing a crack on a vessel that struck some ice, there is no job too big or risky. The team is fearless and never hesitates to put their lives on the line to get The Job done.
