Expert Metal Repairs Alterations in Shanklin, Isle of Wight

It’s a common scenario: you're halfway through a loft conversion or an extension in Shanklin, and you realise the steel beam you've got doesn't quite fit the new architectural plan. Instead of starting from scratch, we can often perform precise alterations to your existing steelwork. We specialise in modifying Universal Beams (UB) and Columns (UC), ensuring any cuts or welds meet the strict requirements of UK Building Regulations. Because we are UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 for Execution Class 2, you can rest easy knowing that the structural integrity of your home is in safe hands. We'll work alongside your builders to ensure every plate, bracket, and bolt hole is exactly where it needs to be.

Living and working in a coastal spot like Shanklin means dealing with the constant threat of corrosion. If your boat’s hull, deck fittings, or marine trailers are starting to show their age, we can help. We work with mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium, using TIG and MIG welding processes to provide clean, high-quality repairs that stand up to the harsh maritime environment. Whether it's a commercial vessel needing dockside attention or a private boat trailer that needs a bit of love, our coded welders ensure every joint is watertight and robust. We understand that time out of the water is money or missed fun, so we aim for a quick turnaround without ever cutting corners.

Anyone in the construction or agricultural trade knows that machinery takes a lot of punishment. Cracked digger buckets, worn-out chassis, or broken brackets on heavy equipment can bring a job to a standstill. That’s where our expertise in 'reverse engineering' and heavy-duty stick welding comes in handy. We can often fabricate replacement parts or reinforce high-stress areas on-site, saving you the massive cost of buying new equipment. We’ve spent years fixing up plant machinery across the Isle of Wight, and we know exactly how to prep and weld heavy-gauge carbon steel to ensure the repair lasts as long as the machine itself.

Maybe you’ve bought a beautiful set of vintage gates that are just a few inches too wide, or perhaps your garden railings have rusted through at the base. You don't have to scrap them. We provide a complete refurbishment and rejuvenation service for architectural metalwork. We can cut down, extend, or reinforce your existing gates and railings, often making them stronger than they were originally. By using precision plasma and oxy-fuel cutting, we can remove damaged sections cleanly before welding in fresh, matching material. It’s a great way to maintain the character of your property while ensuring everything is safe and secure.
