Birmingham is rebuilding its centre and its industrial belt at the same time, from the Broad Street and Eastside commercial cores to the manufacturing estates ringing the city. That range of work needs dependable structural steel, designed, fabricated to BS EN 1090 Execution Class 2 and installed by our own teams.
We're excited to share a glimpse of our site team's accomplishments as they commenced the installation of the rooftop steelwork in partnership with Sir Robert McAlpine. Our scope of works included the supply and...

"I've worked with UIS for several years on some high profile and very complex projects.

Overall they are a pleasure to do business with and wouldn't hesitate recommending UIS for any steelwork or metalwork packages."
Structural steelwork for Birmingham runs through one team from the first drawing to the last bolt. We design and fabricate your beams, columns and connections at our South Yorkshire workshop, then bring our own installers to site across the city and the wider West Midlands. Because fabrication and erection stay in-house, one family-run business is accountable for the whole frame.
Start your quoteYes. Birmingham and the surrounding West Midlands are well within our nationwide service. We design and fabricate your steel at our South Yorkshire workshop to BS EN 1090 Execution Class 2, then our own installation teams travel to your site to erect it. No area is treated as out of range.
Lead time depends on tonnage, connection detailing and drawing approval, not on where you are. With around 100 tonnes of capacity moving through our workshop each month, we will give you a firm programme once we have your drawings, and hold to it because we control fabrication and site work ourselves.
All of our structural steelwork is fabricated to BS EN 1090 Execution Class 2 and UKCA marked. We hold ISO 9001 for quality management, along with CHAS Elite, SafeContractor and ConstructionLine Gold accreditations, so a Birmingham main contractor can sign us off without extra checks.
No. The team that erects your frame in Birmingham is directly employed by us, the same as our designers and fabricators. We do not hand site work to agency crews or outside contractors, which is why one business stays accountable for the steel from drawing board through to handover.
Yes. Birmingham's mix of commercial fit-outs, warehousing and manufacturing units suits our scope well. We fabricate primary and secondary steelwork, portal frames, mezzanine floors, staircases and access platforms, so whether the job is a city-centre office alteration or an industrial unit, the same team can design and build it.
