Why Choose RA Steelworks

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

Certified steelwork for your peace of mind

Ever wondered why some steel fabricators are cheaper than others? It often comes down to certification. We are proud to be UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). This isn't just a badge on our website; it’s your guarantee that every beam, column, and splice connection we produce is CE-marked and fully compliant with UK Building Regulations. When your building control officer visits your site in Totton or the New Forest, they'll want to see that your structural steel meets these standards. With us, you get the paperwork and the precision that keeps your project legal and, more importantly, safe.

Structural steel beams and RSJs delivered fast

Most of the builders we talk to have the same complaint: waiting weeks for a simple beam while their team sits idle on-site. We know that in the construction world, time really is money. That is why we specialise in 'builders' steel'—providing quick-turnaround Universal Beams (UB) and Universal Columns (UC) cut to size, drilled, and finished exactly how you need them. From simple lintels to complex load-bearing structures for loft conversions and extensions, we make sure your steel arrives when you need it, not three weeks late. We can even handle the more technical bits like CNC plasma cutting and oxy-fuel profiling if your design requires a bit more finesse.

Coded welding for high-integrity joints

When it comes to the heavy-duty stuff, you can't just rely on any old weld. Our team consists of highly skilled coded welders certified to BS EN standards. We work across MIG, TIG, and Stick welding processes, meaning we can handle everything from delicate stainless steel balustrades to massive structural portal frames. If you have a project in the industrial or marine sectors around Southampton, you know that weld integrity is non-negotiable. Our Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS) ensure that every joint we create is strong enough to handle the stresses of its environment, whether it's a mezzanine floor in a warehouse or a repair on a commercial vessel.

Bespoke metalwork and marine fabrication

Being located in Totton, we're right on the doorstep of the South Coast's maritime industry. This puts us in a unique position to offer specialist marine fabrication and ship repair services. We've helped numerous clients with dockside repairs, hull modifications, and bespoke marine components that need to withstand the harsh salt-water environment. But it isn't all heavy industry; we also love the creative side of metalwork. If you need a custom-designed steel staircase, a modern glass-and-steel balustrade, or even a bespoke garden gate, we can bring your ideas to life. We work with mild steel, stainless, and aluminium, providing finishes like hot-dip galvanising or powder coating to ensure your metalwork looks great for years to come.

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.
