Steel Fabrication in Bradford.

Bradford's engineering tradition still shows in its working mills, sheet-metal shops and the estates along the M606, where fabricated steel keeps industry moving. We design in-house, fabricate at our four-bay South Yorkshire workshop to BS EN 1090 Execution Class 2 and install across the district with our own directly employed teams, averaging around 100 tonnes a month.

Start to finish

One team, from drawing to installed.

Bradford fabrication work runs from mezzanines and machine supports on the M606 estates to staircases, balustrades and structural alterations in the mill conversions. We design, fabricate and install as one company, and stay on for the aftercare.

Common questions

FAQs

Our four-bay fabrication workshop is at Hellaby, South Yorkshire. We deliver fabricated steel to Bradford on our own transport and install it with directly employed crews, so one company is accountable from drawings through installation to aftercare.

Yes. The estates along the M606 and at Euroway run warehousing and manufacturing that need mezzanine floors, plant platforms and support steel fitted around live operations. We fabricate to survey dimensions and install in planned windows.
