Why Choose RA Steelworks

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

Coded welding makes the difference

Have you ever wondered what 'coded' actually means in the welding world? It’s essentially a guarantee of quality. To be a coded welder, our team members must undergo rigorous testing to specific Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS). This isn't a one-off test either; our qualifications are re-verified every six months to ensure our skills stay sharp. For anyone working on load-bearing structures or high-pressure systems in Hampshire, using a coded welder isn't just a good idea—it’s often a legal requirement for insurance and building control. We handle MIG, TIG, and MMA (Stick) welding across a variety of metals including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. By choosing RA Steelworks Services LTD, you are choosing a partner who understands the technical nuances of parent metals, edge preparation, and penetration, ensuring every joint is as strong as it needs to be.

Mobile welding units coming to you

Sometimes the work can't come to our workshop. Maybe you've got a cracked component on a piece of plant machinery on-site, or perhaps you need a steel staircase installed and welded in situ. That’s where our mobile welding units come in. We cover a 25-mile radius around Wickham, bringing our certified expertise directly to your doorstep. We’ve seen it all—from emergency repairs in muddy construction sites to precision adjustments on residential builds. Our vans are fully equipped for on-site welding and cutting, allowing us to react quickly when time is of the essence. We know that delays on-site can be incredibly costly, so we pride ourselves on being reliable and getting the job done without the fuss.

Specialist support for marine and industrial projects

Being so close to the coast, we’ve developed a real knack for marine fabrication and ship repair. The maritime environment is notoriously harsh on metal, demanding a level of precision and durability that standard fabrication just can't match. We provide high-integrity welding for hulls, decks, and internal structural modifications that meet IACS and Lloyds Register standards. It’s not just ships, though. We also support local industrial plants and factories with everything from mezzanine floors to custom-built access platforms. If you have a project that involves heavy-duty steel or requires specialist metal repairs, you can trust our decades of experience to get the job done right the first time.

Complete metalwork services under one roof

While coded welding is our bread and butter, it’s only one part of what we do. We offer a full suite of services designed to take the stress out of your project. Need precision parts? Our CNC profiling and cutting services can handle that. Looking for something a bit more aesthetic? We create bespoke metalwork, including elegant staircases and safety balustrades for both homes and businesses. We also supply and fabricate standard steel beams and RSJs for local builders, ensuring you have the structural support you need exactly when you need it. From the initial design support right through to the final weld, RA Steelworks Services LTD is your local, dependable expert in Wickham. For a professional service with a personal touch, reach out to our team today on 023 8272 1798.

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.
