Why Choose RA Steelworks

Certified Structural Steelwork & Fabrication across Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex

Certified steel that keeps building control happy

We know the stress of waiting for a building inspector to sign off on your project. The last thing you want is a delay because your steelwork doesn't meet the right standards. That's why we take compliance so seriously. We're fully accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). In plain English? It means every beam we fabricate is UKCA/CE marked and meets the strict safety laws required for structural use. When you work with us, you aren't just getting metal; you're getting the certification and peace of mind that your architect and building control officer will insist on.

Precision RSJs and beams for residential projects

Most of the homeowners we speak to in Eastleigh are looking for something specific—perhaps a Universal Beam (UB) for a loft conversion or a series of Parallel Flange Channels (PFC) for a new open-plan living space. We don't just 'supply' these; we fabricate them to your exact structural engineer's drawings. We'll handle the drilling, the welding of end plates, and even the primer painting so the steel arrives at your site ready to be lifted into place. It’s all about making the on-site team's life easier and keeping your project moving forward without any nasty surprises.

Coded welding for high-integrity joints

Think all welding is the same? When it comes to the structural integrity of a building, it really isn't. Our team consists of highly skilled coded welders who work to approved Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS). This is vital for critical joints where strength is non-negotiable. Whether it's complex portal frames for an industrial unit or high-load mezzanine floors for a warehouse, our welds are executed with precision. We also have mobile site-welding units ready to head out across Eastleigh and Chandler's Ford for those times when things need to be fixed or adjusted right there on the construction site.

Bespoke metalwork and marine fabrication

Being so close to the coast and the busy ports of Southampton, we often find ourselves working on more than just buildings. Our expertise extends to marine fabrication and ship repair, handling everything from hull repairs to custom deck fittings. But back on dry land, we're just as comfortable creating architectural features. If you need a bespoke steel staircase that makes a statement, or durable balustrades and handrails that look the part while meeting safety standards, we can build it. We work with mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium, using CNC profiling and cutting to ensure every component fits like a glove.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What is BS EN 1090-1 and why does my project need it?

+

This is a legal requirement for any structural steel used in the UK. It proves that the fabrication shop has been audited and the steel is CE marked. If you use a fabricator without this accreditation, your building control officer might reject the work, and your insurance could be void. We are fully UKAS accredited to Execution Class 2, so our steel meets all the necessary safety standards for your peace of mind.

Can you supply a single RSJ for a house extension?

+

Yes, we help local builders and homeowners with small-scale projects all the time. We can cut, drill, and paint a single beam or a small set of columns and deliver them straight to your site in Southampton or the surrounding areas.

What is the difference between a Universal Beam and an RSJ?

+

Most people use the term RSJ (Rolled Steel Joist) to mean any steel beam, but technically, they have tapered flanges. Universal Beams (UB) are more common in modern construction. We can help you identify exactly what your structural engineer has specified to make sure you get the right part for the job.

Do you offer on-site welding if I cannot bring the job to your workshop?

+

We do. We have fully equipped vans that bring our coded welding services to your site. This is perfect for repairs to heavy machinery, finishing structural frames, or marine work where the boat is already out of the water.

How long does it take to get a quote for steel fabrication?

+

If you have your drawings ready, we can usually get a price back to you within 24 to 48 hours. We know construction moves fast, so we try to keep our turnaround times as short as possible.

Are your welders coded?

+

Yes, our welders are certified to high industry standards. This means they have passed specific tests to prove they can produce high-quality, safe welds. This is a must for any structural work where the integrity of the building depends on the strength of the joints.
