Steel fabricators for Suffolk

Steel fabrication for Suffolk, made in Norwich.

From a single beam for a Beccles extension to a plant platform on the Lowestoft quayside, we make it to fit.

Swift Fabrication Services is a welding and fabrication company based in Norwich. North Suffolk is close to home for us. Beccles and Lowestoft are a straight run down the A146, Bungay and Halesworth are not much further, and the A140 takes us to Eye and the Mid Suffolk villages on the Diss side of the border.

We cut, drill and weld mild and stainless steel to your drawings or your engineer's: beams and columns, goalpost frames, mezzanine floors, platforms and walkways, staircases, balustrades, gates and railings. Steel leaves the workshop primed, and galvanising, paint or powder coating can be arranged. We deliver to site and can install it, or hand over to your own builder.

How we cover the county

Three ways our work reaches Suffolk.

You do not travel to us. We come to you, or we make it in Norwich and deliver it to your site.

01 / Made and delivered

Fabricated in Norwich, delivered.

Send drawings or a sketch with sizes. We fabricate in the workshop and deliver to any Suffolk address, from a pair of garden gates to a lorry load of primed beams.

02 / Mobile welding on site

A mobile welder at your farm or yard.

Repairs to plant, trailers, gates and steelwork are done where they stand. We can bring our own power. North Suffolk is regular ground, Ipswich and Bury are by arrangement.

03 / Steel erection

Installed by the same team.

Frames, beams, mezzanines, stairs and platforms are lifted in, bolted up, lined and levelled. We plan the lifting, provide RAMS and work alongside your builder or contractor.

Where we work in Suffolk

Ports, energy, food, farming and historic towns.

Lowestoft has its port, offshore wind operations and marine trades, and the energy sector runs on down the Suffolk coast. Ipswich adds its own port, construction and logistics on the A14 and A12. Near the sea, galvanising and coatings matter.

Bury St Edmunds is a brewing, sugar and manufacturing town, so machinery installation and shutdown welding are planned around production. Farms and estates need buildings and gates, and historic streets need a careful finish.

Steel fabrication in Bury St Edmunds

Ipswich and south Suffolk

Further from home, planned ahead.

Ipswich is about 43 miles from Norwich, down the A140 and along the A14. Bury St Edmunds is about 41. We serve both for fabrication, delivery, steel erection and planned installation work.

Mobile and emergency call outs that far south are by arrangement. Call 07495 409006 and we will tell you plainly how soon we can be with you.

Steel fabrication in Ipswich

Waveney valley

Beccles, Bungay and the border country.

Beccles is about 18 miles from the workshop. Ellough Industrial Estate, the business park on the old airfield and the boatyards on the Waveney are all within easy reach for site welding.

Work here is mixed: beams and lintels for builders, gates and railings for homes, repairs to trailers and farm machinery, handrails and platforms for industrial units. Emergency welding is available 24/7.

Suffolk enquiries

Common Suffolk questions.

Do you cover all of Suffolk from Norwich?

Yes. North Suffolk and the Waveney valley are close to our Norwich base. Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and the south of the county are served for planned fabrication and site work.

Can a welder come to us?

Yes. We offer mobile welding in Suffolk on farms, factories, yards, building sites and at homes, using MIG, TIG or MMA as the job needs. We can bring our own power.

Can you work from our structural engineer's drawings?

Yes. We fabricate to your engineer's drawings and can help develop a design for fabrication. Structural calculations come from your own structural engineer.
