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

Certified Structural Steel for Total Peace of Mind

When it comes to the bones of a building, there’s no room for guesswork. That’s why we’re fully UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). What does that actually mean for you? It means every piece of structural steel leaving our workshop is CE-marked and meets the rigorous safety standards required by building control. If you've ever had a building inspector ask for certification paperwork only to find your supplier can't provide it, you’ll know how much of a headache that can be. With us, you get the full paper trail and the assurance that your beams, columns, and portal frames are up to the task.

Ready-to-Fit RSJs and Beams for Residential Projects

Are you planning a loft conversion or knocking through a wall for a new kitchen? Most homeowners and residential contractors we chat with just want a simple, hassle-free service for their builders' steel. We supply made-to-measure Universal Beams (UB) and Universal Columns (UC) that are ready to drop straight into place. We can handle everything from simple lintels to complex splice connections for those tricky architectural designs. Because we're local to Brading, we can often turn these around quickly, helping you keep your project on track without waiting weeks for a delivery from the mainland.

Skilled Coded Welding Whenever You Need It

Welding isn't just about sticking two bits of metal together; it’s about structural integrity. Our team consists of highly skilled coded welders certified to BS EN standards. We work across MIG, TIG, and stick welding processes, ensuring the right technique is used for the specific metal—be it mild steel, stainless, or aluminium. Sometimes the work can't come to the workshop, which is why we offer a mobile site welding service. If you’ve got a critical repair on-site or a structural joint that needs finishing in-situ, we’ll bring our equipment directly to you anywhere on the Isle of Wight.

Specialist Marine Fabrication and Ship Repair

Being based on the Island, we know just how much the salt air and sea can punish metalwork. We’ve spent years supporting the local maritime industry with expert ship repairs and marine fabrication. From repairing hulls and decks to fabricating custom components for private vessels or commercial port infrastructure, we understand the unique demands of the marine environment. We provide fast, durable solutions that keep boats in the water and functioning safely, offering dockside support when you need it most.

Custom Metalwork and Architectural Details

Sometimes off-the-shelf just won't do. If you have a specific vision for a steel staircase, a bespoke mezzanine floor to add space to your warehouse, or decorative balustrades for a balcony, we can bring those ideas to life. We combine our technical fabrication skills with a bit of creative problem-solving to produce metalwork that is as functional as it is good-looking. Using our CNC plasma and oxy-fuel cutting tech, we can profile plates and sections with pinpoint accuracy, ensuring that even the most intricate custom designs fit perfectly first time.

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.
