Reliable structural steelwork in New Milton

Are you planning a home extension near Barton-on-Sea or perhaps managing a larger commercial build in the heart of New Milton? Getting the right steel shouldn't be the part of the job that keeps you up at night. At RA Steelworks, we've spent years becoming the go-to team for builders, architects, and homeowners across the New Forest who need more than just a piece of metal. Whether it's a single RSJ for a kitchen knock-through or a complex series of universal beams for a new development, we're here to make sure your project stands on a solid, safe foundation. We know the local area inside out and understand that when you're on a tight schedule, you need a supplier who shows up when they say they will. Why settle for a generic supplier when you can work with a local specialist who cares about the integrity of your build? If you're ready to get started, give us a ring on 023 8272 1798 for a proper chat about what you need.

Why Choose RA Steelworks

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

Certified steel beams for building control approval

Imagine the headache of a building inspector turning up only to find your steelwork doesn't meet the required standards. It's a nightmare nobody wants. That's why we take compliance so seriously. We are fully UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2) structural steelwork. In plain English, this means every beam, column, and post that leaves our workshop is CE-marked and fully compliant with UK Building Regulations. From standard Universal Beams (UB) and Universal Columns (UC) to Parallel Flange Channels (PFC), we handle the fabrication with total precision. We've seen too many projects delayed by non-certified steel, so we make sure our paperwork is as robust as our metalwork. It gives you, your structural engineer, and your building control officer total peace of mind that everything is above board.

Coded welding for high-integrity projects

When it comes to the joints that hold your entire building together, 'good enough' simply isn't an option. Our team consists of highly skilled coded welders who are certified to the most stringent industry standards. Whether we're working with mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium, we follow strict Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS) to ensure every bead is perfect. This level of expertise is essential for structural applications where the load-bearing capacity is non-negotiable. We're not just sticking bits of metal together; we're performing high-integrity welding that's built to last a lifetime. Do you have a project that requires specialist welding on-site? We can bring our expertise directly to you in New Milton, ensuring that even the most awkward installations are handled with professional care.

Custom fabrication from mezzanine floors to staircases

Sometimes a standard beam just won't cut it. Maybe you're looking to maximise your warehouse space with a heavy-duty mezzanine floor, or perhaps you're designing a bespoke steel staircase for a modern New Forest home. Whatever you've got on the drawing board, we can build it. Our workshop is equipped with the latest technology, including CNC plasma and oxy-fuel cutting, allowing us to profile steel plates to your exact specifications. We love a challenge, and our bespoke metalwork service covers everything from architectural balustrades and handrails to intricate brackets and frames. We'll work closely with your designs to turn those initial sketches into high-quality, durable metal components that fit perfectly first time.

Marine repairs and mobile site welding

Being so close to the coast, we know that marine environments are incredibly tough on metal. If you've got a vessel that needs a hull repair or a dockside structure that's seen better days, our marine fabrication and ship repair service is here to help. We provide a responsive mobile welding service that covers New Milton, Lymington, and the surrounding coastal areas. We can get our gear onto your site or vessel quickly to carry out emergency repairs or essential modifications, keeping your downtime to a minimum. From heavy-duty plant machinery repairs to delicate stainless steel tweaks on a boat, we've got the tools and the talent to fix it on the spot.

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.
