Sheffield City Centre
Sheffield's city-centre regeneration puts primary frames on tight plots above live retail. We sequence steel into agreed night windows and erect it with our own crews.
A family firm since 1994
Structural Steelwork in Sheffield.
Sheffield's move from historic steelmaking to advanced manufacturing and a regenerating centre keeps structural steel in steady demand, from new production bays to mixed-use frames. We design, fabricate to BS EN 1090 and install every 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.
