Fabrication & welding

If it's metal, we can make it. Or mend it.

A well-equipped fabrication shop with the full range of welding processes in-house, working in steel, stainless, aluminium, copper and brass. From one-off repairs to full builds, in the workshop or on your site.

Welding

Every process, in-house

Tig, pulse Tig, Mig, pulse Mig, flux cored, gas, manual metal arc and metal spraying. Having the full kit under one roof means the job gets the right process, not the nearest one.

Architectural metalwork — flashings, wrought iron, stainless handrails
Fencing — from school fences to high-security correctional facilities
