Thurcroft
The former Thurcroft pit site redeveloped in phases, so portal foundations sit on piles tied to the coal-authority record. We release column base plates only after the pile-head survey is signed off.

Commercial Steel Buildings in Thurcroft.
Thurcroft's industrial estate and the farmland around it call for practical steel-framed buildings, from light-industrial units to agricultural and storage sheds. We design, fabricate to BS EN 1090 and install the frame with our own directly employed teams.

Accredited for design, fabrication and installation, with the paperwork to prove it.
- BS EN 1090 Execution Class 2, UKCA marked: the execution class your engineer's design legally has to be fabricated to.
- Coded welders, BS EN ISO 9606: every structural weld made by an approval-tested welder, traceable on the documentation.
- ISO 9001 quality management: a quality system audited end to end, not a badge on a footer.
- CHAS Elite, SafeContractor & ConstructionLine Gold: the pre-qualification pack your procurement team lifts straight into a PQQ.
- GBP 10m public and GBP 10m employers liability: published figures, because your procurement team needs them on file.
- Directly employed, CSCS-carded site teams: the people on your site are ours, not subcontracted, so one team owns the result.

Common questions
FAQs
Yes. Thurcroft is a few minutes from our Hellaby facility, so designing, fabricating and installing steel buildings here is routine for us.
