Was going to suggest that too! Be sure they use the right rod for the repair. Not yellow brazing rod like so many do !!!!

Absolutely!
The best to use on any cast iron repairs, is 'Silver-Braze'. More commonly referred to as Silver Solder.
I have been using it for many years. There are a few little tricks in working with it, but when done right,
the braze flows into the smallest of cracks, and you end up with very little filing. Also, I choose to make
my own jigs, for holding parts together, so that they line up perfect. Sometimes, small holes have to be
drilled and tap'd for temporary brackets. Then once the main area is welded, you remove the brackets,
and fill those holes. Sometimes a little time-consuming, but well worth the effort, as you don't want a
job repaired, that doesn't line-up properly when reinstalling.
If you take your job to a shop, make sure they know the proper procedure. I have seen some pretty shoddy
repairs, that have come out of so-called professional welding shops.
