Four things to consider when choosing a steel fabrication company

When it comes to steel fabrication, quality is everything.

When you compromise the quality of your steel, you compromise the success of your entire project.

Not all steel is created equally… and that’s why it’s crucial to buy steel from a trustworthy, reliable and experienced steel fabricator.

And for guaranteed quality, you can’t look past locally fabricated steel.

Ultimately, if you want to ensure a smooth project that lasts a lifetime, then you need to be very selective about who – and where – you source your materials from.

Australian location

Choosing a local steel fabricator isn’t only about supporting your local economy… it’s about having the expertise and support you need when you need it.

A local, Australian-based fabricator will quote quickly, answer questions as they arise and offer immediate advice on your project. And if your project hits a snag, a local fabricator will be on site in a flash to lend their expertise… saving you from lengthy delays.

At Edcon Steel, we understand how important it is that you can get your hands on the steel and metal products you need in a timely manner. With our purpose-built steel fabrication facility in Brookvale on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, we can turn orders around efficiently so you can get on with the job.

As Australia’s most comprehensive online steel supplier, we can also deliver structural beams and tubular sections to help complete small or large building projects. Our online store is limited to stock items cut to size but offers the convenience of being able to order any time, day or night.

Our delivery options may be limited due to freight options to your location, our online system will assist you with this.

Proven services and capabilities

The capability you need in a steel fabricator extends well beyond their ability to fabricate steel. When you work with a steel fabrication company that understands project requirements, you can guarantee that your project will run more efficiently.

A diverse range of projects

A steel fabricator is only as good as their last job. And without a portfolio of successful projects for you to review, you have no way of determining their quality of work, proficiency, capability and past achievements.

Just like our service and capabilities, Edcon Steel’s clients are diverse. And their practical applications for steel are astounding. Some of our structural steel projects are amongst the biggest names in the Australian construction industry.

Building trust through service

One of the biggest factors to look out for in a steel fabricator is their customer service and knowledge. When you’re choosing a fabricator, be sure to ask lots of questions to help discern if they can complete a potential project for you.

Lean towards fabricators who listen to your needs and can offer the right solutions. A good steel fabricator will take you through their entire process and offer quality materials, regardless of the size or type of project you need to complete.
