Expert Coded Welding in Havant, Hampshire

In the trade, we talk about 'codes' a lot, but what does it actually mean for you? Essentially, a coded welder is someone who has passed a practical exam to a specific standard, like BS EN ISO 9606. It means we have proven we can produce high-quality, defect-free welds in specific positions and materials. For you, it means peace of mind. Whether we are using MIG for speed, TIG for those clean, precision finishes on stainless steel, or Stick welding for heavy-duty site repairs, you know the structural integrity is there. We follow strict Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS) on every job. It is not about being fancy; it is about making sure that when we leave the site, that steel is going nowhere.

If you are a developer or a builder in Havant, you will know all about the local building regs. For structural steel, the standard is BS EN 1090-1, specifically Execution Class 2 (EXC2). This is not just a badge we wear; it is an audited process. It ensures every beam, column, and plate we fabricate is fully traceable and compliant. Using a non-coded welder for structural work can lead to a nightmare with building control or insurance later on. We handle all the paperwork and marking so your project sails through inspection. From simple RSJs for a kitchen knock-through to complex mezzanine floors, we have the certification covered.

Being so close to the coast, we do a lot of work in the marine sector. Saltwater is brutal on metal, so your welds need to be spot on to prevent corrosion and failure. We provide specialist marine fabrication and ship repair, dealing with hulls, decks, and custom stainless steel fittings. Our team is comfortable working with aluminium and carbon steel too. If you have got a vessel that needs an urgent repair or a custom bracket that will not rust away in six months, we are the local experts you can rely on. We bring the same level of precision to a boat as we do to a massive industrial warehouse.

You do not always have the luxury of bringing the work to our workshop. That is why we run mobile welding units that cover a 25-mile radius around Havant. Whether you are in Bedhampton, Leigh Park, or over towards Emsworth, we can come to your site. We are equipped for on-site repairs, emergency call-outs, and installing the steel staircases or balustrades we have made in the shop. We are fully insured and follow a safety-first approach, making sure we protect your property while we work. If you need a quick, no-obligation quote for any metal repairs or structural alterations, just ring us on 023 8272 1798.
