Why Choose RA Steelworks

Certified Coded Welding & Steelworks in Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex

Full Compliance with BS EN 1090 Standards

Ever wonder why 'coded' welding is such a big deal? It's all about accountability and safety. We're proud to be UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). In plain English, this means our materials, our workshop processes, and our welders are independently checked to make sure they meet the grade for structural steelwork. For many projects in Hampshire, especially those involving public buildings or structural frames, this certification is a legal requirement. When the building inspector or your insurance company asks for the paperwork, you'll have total peace of mind knowing your steelwork is fully CE/UKCA marked and compliant with Part A of the Building Regulations.

Expertise in MIG TIG and Stick Welding

Different jobs demand different techniques, and our team is skilled in all the major processes. If you're working with heavy structural beams or general metal fabrication, our MIG (GMAW) welding is fast and efficient. For more delicate work or when we're dealing with stainless steel and aluminium—common in the high-end homes and marine environments around the New Forest—we use TIG (GTAW) for that clean, surgical finish. We also offer MMA (Stick) welding, which is a lifesaver for on-site repairs where wind or rain makes other methods difficult. From thick carbon steel plates to thin-wall stainless tubing, we’ve got the equipment and the 'codes' to handle it all.

Mobile Welding for On-Site Repairs

We know that you can't always bring the work to us. Maybe you've got a piece of plant machinery that's developed a crack, or perhaps your structural steel frame is already in situ and needs an urgent modification. That's where our mobile welding units come in. We cover a 25-mile radius around Ringwood, bringing our coded expertise directly to your site or workshop. It’s a convenient, professional service designed to keep your project moving without the hassle of transport. We arrive fully equipped and ready to work, ensuring that even on-site welds meet the same high standards we maintain in our own facility.

Specialist Marine and Industrial Solutions

Being so close to the coast and the industrial hubs of Hampshire, we often find ourselves working on specialised marine and industrial projects. Coded welding is non-negotiable here; the harsh salt air and constant vibrations of a vessel or a factory floor will quickly find the weakness in a poor weld. We provide durable, high-integrity repairs for hulls, decks, and industrial frameworks. Because our welders are regularly re-verified and our procedures are audited every six months, you know you're getting a service that is consistently at the top of its game. We're happy to work alongside your engineers to ensure every fillet and butt weld is up to scratch.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our certified coded welding and structural steelwork services in Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex , Berkshire, Surrey, and West Sussex.

What exactly is coded welding and why does it matter?

+

A coded welder is someone who has passed a specific practical test to a recognised standard, such as BS EN ISO 9606. In Southampton, many structural and marine projects require coded welding to meet insurance and safety laws. It proves the welder can produce high-quality, defect-free welds that can hold heavy loads.

Why should I look for BS EN 1090-1 and EXC2 certification?

+

Since 2014, it has been a legal requirement for structural steel used in the UK to be CE/UKCA marked. BS EN 1090-1 shows that the fabricator follows a strict quality control system. Execution Class 2 (EXC2) is the standard for most buildings. Using a certified company like us makes sure your project stays on the right side of the law.

Can you provide on-site welding for construction projects in Hampshire?

+

Yes, we have mobile welding units that come directly to your site. This is ideal for steelwork that needs to be joined during the build or for making repairs to heavy plant machinery. We bring all the necessary safety equipment and tools to handle the job in situ.

Do you offer TIG welding for stainless steel and aluminium?

+

Yes, we do. While MIG welding is great for heavy steel frames, TIG welding is much better for thinner or more delicate metals like aluminium and stainless steel. It provides a very clean, strong finish that is perfect for marine parts or architectural metalwork.

How do I get a price for my steel fabrication project?

+

The easiest way is to give us a call or send over your structural drawings. We look at the materials needed, the complexity of the fabrication, and any site requirements to give you a clear, no-obligation quote. We work with both large contractors and private homeowners.
