Scope

What we self-perform.

Two people own this company and both of them weld. Nothing on the structural side goes to a second-tier sub, so the person who priced your job is the person standing on it. Crane and rigging, engineering, detailing, galvanizing, and special inspection are coordinated rather than performed.

What we do

The licensed steel, and the truck that keeps your date.

The structural side is what the C-51 covers: fabrication, erection, and the welded connections an inspector signs off. The mobile side is why a GC keeps a sub who does both, because when something has to be cut and welded today it does not go and sit in a shop queue.

Why a PM keeps this number

You are hiring the two people who show up.

No dispatcher, no project coordinator, nobody to hand you off to. You call, one of us answers, and one of us is on your job. On a small structural scope that is the difference between a date you can hold and a date you are chasing.

The license holder welds your job

Not a qualifier rented from someone you will never meet. The person who holds the C-51 is on site with the machine.

Built around the inspector

Welded to the procedure on the plans, to AWS D1.1, and scheduled so the connection is seen while it is still open. Nothing gets closed in early.

One number, no dispatcher

You reach the person who priced the job and who will be on it. Steel that shows up wrong stops a whole crew, and that call gets answered.

The rig is already on the truck

Cutting, coping, drilling, and welding happen in the field the same day. A mis-fabricated member costs your schedule an hour, not a trip to a shop.

Who we are

Two people, on every job.

One runs the company and one holds the license, and both of them weld. Nobody gets handed off.

Owner and operator

Answers the phone, walks the job, prices the work, and then does it. The person who quotes your job is the person who shows up to weld it, which is most of why a two-person shop is worth calling.

Responsible managing employee

C-51 Structural Steel

Holds the C-51 qualification the company license runs on, and is on the job rather than on the paperwork. Sets the weld procedure, checks the work against it, and deals with the special inspector directly.

No reviews and no project list on here yet, and we are not going to make either of them up. The company is new. The license, the bonds, and the insurance are real and checkable today, and everything else on this site is a fact you can verify before you send us a set.
