Expert Coded Welding in Christchurch, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole

Have you ever wondered why some welds require a specific certification while others don't? It usually comes down to safety. Coded welding means our welders have been tested and certified to specific procedures, such as BS EN ISO 9606, ensuring they can produce flawless welds under pressure. For any structural work, you'll likely need to meet BS EN 1090-1 standards for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). If you use a non-coded welder for a structural job, you might find yourself in a spot of bother when the building control officer asks for the CE or UKCA marking. We take all that stress away by providing the exact Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS) and certification required to prove the job was done properly. It's about more than just a strong joint; it's about providing the peace of mind that your structure is legally compliant and safe for years to come.

Sometimes, the steel can't come to the workshop. Perhaps you've got a fixed frame that needs an emergency repair, or a set of steel beams that need joining on a muddy construction site in the middle of Christchurch. We've got you covered with our mobile site welding units. We'll bring the equipment directly to you, whether you're at a residential property or a busy industrial estate. Our team is skilled in various processes, including MIG, TIG, and Stick welding (MMA). This means we can handle everything from delicate aluminium work to heavy-duty carbon steel fabrication right there on the spot. We've spent plenty of time on sites across the South Coast, so we know how to work efficiently alongside other trades to keep your timeline on track.

Living and working so close to the water in Christchurch means we're no strangers to the marine industry. Saltwater is a tough environment, and it'll find the weakness in a poor weld faster than anything else. We specialise in marine fabrication and ship repair, providing high-integrity welding for hulls, decks, and superstructures. Because we're coded, we can work on commercial vessels where standards are strictly monitored by bodies like Lloyds Register or DNV. Whether it's a quick dockside repair to get a boat back in the water or a bespoke stainless steel fitting for a private yacht, we apply the same level of precision to every job. We're proud to support the local maritime community with welding that stands up to the harshest conditions the English Channel can throw at it.

While structural steel is the backbone of what we do, we also have a real eye for the finer details of bespoke metalwork. Not every job is a massive I-beam; sometimes it's a custom-designed staircase, a set of safety balustrades, or an architectural feature that needs to look as good as it performs. We work with stainless steel and aluminium to create clean, modern finishes that last. Imagine you're looking for a specific mezzanine floor to maximise your warehouse space, or perhaps a unique set of gates for a property in the New Forest—we can take those initial ideas and turn them into a reality. Because we handle our own CNC profiling and cutting, we can guarantee a level of accuracy that off-the-shelf solutions simply can't match.
