General and structural fabrication
Structural steel, handrails and platforms, cable tray, plate work, brackets and frames, made from drawings, a sketch or a photo of what you need.
From a single bracket to structural steel
Alex has fabricated everything from heavy transport chassis to small one-off parts, including electrical cable tray, handrails and platforms on construction and oil and gas projects. Send a drawing if you have one. If you don’t, a photo and a few measurements are a good start.
- Structural steel and beams
- Handrails and platforms
- Electrical cable tray
- Truck body building and modifications

Welding processes
MMAW (stick)
Manual metal arc welding, also called SMAW. Tough and portable, so it suits on-site repairs and heavy plate in all weather.
FCAW (flux-cored)
Flux-cored arc welding lays down a lot of weld quickly, ideal for heavy plate, structural steel and wear parts.
GTAW (TIG)
Gas tungsten arc welding gives precise, clean welds on aluminium, stainless and thinner material.

Can you work from a photo?
Yes. That’s how a lot of jobs start: send a photo of what you want, or of something similar, and Alex works out the details with you.
Do you supply the steel?
Alex can source the materials, and he’ll go through material costs with you before work starts.
Do you install on site?
Yes. Fabricated work can be installed or welded in place on site.
