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

Certified Structural Steel for Your Building Projects

Building regulations can be a bit of a headache, can't they? When it comes to structural steelwork, there's no room for guesswork. That's why everything we produce is fully CE-marked and compliant with BS EN 1090-1 standards. Being accredited for Execution Class 2 (EXC2) means we've been rigorously audited, so you can rest easy knowing your RSJs, universal beams, and columns meet the strictest safety rules. Whether you're knocking through a wall for a new kitchen or erecting a complex portal frame for an industrial unit, we provide the 'builders' steel' that architects and building control officers love to see. We'll supply, fabricate, and even deliver the steel right to your site in New Milton or across the New Forest, keeping your project moving forward without the stress.

Coded Welding for Peace of Mind

Ever worried about the integrity of a weld on a load-bearing joint? You aren't alone. In our industry, 'near enough' isn't good enough. Our team consists of highly skilled coded welders certified to BS EN standards. This means we've proven our ability to produce welds that are consistently strong and reliable, even under immense pressure. We're experts in MIG, TIG, and Stick welding, allowing us to work with mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium with ease. Whether it's a critical structural connection or a high-pressure pipe, we follow strict Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS) to ensure every bead is perfect. It's about more than just joining metal; it's about the safety of the people who will eventually live or work inside the buildings we help create.

Specialist Marine Fabrication and Ship Repair

Being so close to the Solent and the busy ports of the South Coast, we've developed a real knack for marine fabrication. The sea is a harsh environment, and it'll find any weakness in your metalwork pretty quickly. We support boat owners, commercial vessel operators, and shipyards with robust repair services. From dockside hull repairs to bespoke stainless steel fittings on deck, we've seen it all. If you've got a vessel in Lymington or Keyhaven that needs urgent welding or a custom-made component, our mobile units can be with you quickly. We understand the marine industry's unique demands and work hard to get you back on the water with minimal downtime.

Bespoke Metalwork for Homes and Businesses

Sometimes an off-the-shelf solution just won't cut it. Maybe you're looking for a striking steel staircase that becomes the centrepiece of a modern home, or perhaps you need custom balustrades that provide safety without blocking the view. We love getting stuck into bespoke metalwork projects. If you can sketch it or provide a drawing, we can probably build it. We've crafted everything from intricate architectural features to practical mezzanine floors that double the storage space in a warehouse. Our team works closely with you to understand the vision, offering practical advice on materials and finishes like hot-dip galvanising or powder coating to make sure the end result is exactly what you hoped for.

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.
