Working in Maidstone
Maidstone is the biggest town in Kent, and it has been built in every era going: ragstone around All Saints and the old centre, Victorian terraces off Week Street and the Tonbridge Road, semis and estates from every decade since the war, and new flats along the Medway.
That mix is exactly what keeps a welder busy. Terraces here get their back walls opened up, which needs a steel beam sized to the engineer's numbers. Postwar semis get their lofts converted, which needs posts and beams in the roof. And a century-old frontage usually carries ironwork that is rusting at exactly the point it meets the brick.
Steel and welding for Maidstone
The structural half of the job is beams over knocked-through openings, steel for loft conversions and extensions, and the adjustable steel legs, the props, that hold a Maidstone terrace up while the wall comes out. If your builder has an engineer's schedule, the list of sizes, the steel gets made to it.
The other half is everything smaller: a dropped gate rehung, a sheared bracket, a repair welded at your house rather than in a workshop, and one-off metalwork made from a photo and a measurement. If it is metal and it is in Maidstone, it is worth a phone call.
