About

As a skilled and self-employed fabricator with over 20+ years of experience, I specialize in creating custom metal solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial clients. I am committed to delivering high-quality, durable products that meet the exact specifications and aesthetic preferences of my clients.

My work ranges from bespoke gate and fencing, structural frameworks to precision-crafted components and repair services. I have specific experience doing internal fitouts for canal boats and hull repairs. I work to ensuring each project reflects the client’s vision while adhering to safety standards and project timelines. With hands-on knowledge of materials like steel, aluminium etc, I bring versatility and creative problem-solving to every job.
