Expert Steelworks & Fabrication in Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex

Certified Steelwork For Your Peace Of Mind

When it comes to structural steel, 'good enough' just doesn't cut it. Most homeowners and developers we speak to are worried about building regulations, and rightly so. That's why we're UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). What does that actually mean for you? It means every beam we fabricate is CE-marked and meets the rigorous safety standards required by UK Building Regulations (Part A). When the building inspector visits your Andover site, you'll have all the paperwork ready to show that your steel is fully compliant and safe. It's about doing the job properly, so you don't have to worry about it later.

Quality RSJs And Builders Steel Supplied Fast

Need a Universal Beam (UB) or a specific column for a loft conversion? We specialise in what many local contractors call 'builders' steel.' We don't just supply raw lengths; we fabricate them to your exact structural drawings. This includes everything from simple splice connections to pre-drilled base plates and custom-welded cleats. Because we're local to the Andover area, we can often offer much more reliable lead times than the big national firms. We understand that on a building site, time is money. If you're stuck waiting for a lintel, the whole project grinds to a halt—and we're here to make sure that doesn't happen.

Coded Welders You Can Count On

Welding is the heart of what we do, but it's not just about sparks and heat. Our team consists of fully coded welders certified to BS EN standards. This means their work has been independently tested for strength and integrity—essential for any load-bearing joint. Whether we're using MIG welding for speed and efficiency in the workshop, TIG welding for a beautiful finish on a stainless steel balustrade, or traditional stick welding for a heavy-duty repair, you're getting expert hands. We work with mild steel, carbon steel, and aluminium, ensuring that whatever the material, the weld is the strongest part of the structure.

Mobile Welding Across Andover And Test Valley

Ever had a piece of plant machinery break down right in the middle of a busy day? Or maybe you've got a site-specific modification that just can't be done in a workshop? Our fully equipped mobile welding units are a lifesaver for many businesses in Hampshire. We can head out to your site in Andover, Ludgershall, or Whitchurch to handle emergency repairs or on-site installations. Having a professional welder come to you saves the hassle of transporting heavy equipment and gets your project moving again in no time. We bring the workshop to your doorstep, equipped for everything from hull repairs on local vessels to structural fixes on-site.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Do I need a certified fabricator for my home extension?

+

Yes, any structural steel used in a building project must be CE-marked and fabricated by a company with the correct accreditation, such as BS EN 1090-1. This confirms the steel is safe and the welds are up to standard. Using an uncertified fabricator could cause serious problems with building control and your property insurance.

What is the difference between a standard welder and a coded welder?

+

A coded welder has passed specific practical tests witnessed by an independent examiner. This certification proves they can produce welds of the highest quality that meet strict British and European standards. For structural or load-bearing steel, using a coded welder is often a legal or safety requirement.

Can you supply steel beams for local builders?

+

We certainly do. We regularly work with local builders in Southampton and Hampshire to supply RSJs and universal beams for extensions and internal wall removals. We can cut, drill, and prime the steel so it is ready for installation as soon as it arrives on your site.

How quickly can you complete a fabrication project?

+

Lead times depend on how complex the job is and our current workshop schedule. However, because we are a local Southampton company, we pride ourselves on being responsive. Once we see your drawings, we can give you a realistic timeframe and stick to it.

Do you offer on-site welding in Southampton?

+

Yes, we have mobile welding equipment that allows us to carry out repairs and installations directly at your location. This is ideal for fixing gates, railings, or structural beams that are already in place.

What materials do you work with?

+

While we specialise in structural mild steel, we are also experts in working with stainless steel and aluminium. This allows us to handle everything from heavy industrial frames to marine components and architectural metalwork.
