Metal Restoration and Repair
Every restoration project is different. Before starting, we consider the condition of the metal, the level of corrosion or damage, the existing finish and the result you want to achieve.
Depending on the project, the work can include:
- Removing loose paint, rust and corrosion.
- Cleaning and preparing metal surfaces.
- Grinding rough or damaged areas.
- Cutting and drilling.
- Welding cracks, joints and damaged sections.
- Repairing or replacing metal components.
- Polishing surfaces to the required finish.
- Preparing metalwork for repainting.
- Applying suitable protective finishes.

Where metalwork is damaged or worn, our welding and fabrication capabilities allow us to do more than improve its appearance. We can also repair failed sections, strengthen weak areas and fabricate replacement parts where required.
Our team aims to preserve existing metalwork wherever possible, while achieving a clean, durable finish suited to the item and its use.
Methods Used
The right restoration method depends on the type of metal, its condition, the existing coating and the required finish.
Methods used can include:
- Shot blasting.
- Hand sanding.
- Wire brushing.
- Heat stripping.
- Chemical treatment and polishing.
- Scraping and paint removal.
- Spray painting.
- Powder coating.
- Welding and fabrication repairs.
- Mechanical polishing.
Not every method is suitable for every item. We can advise on the most appropriate approach based on the material, condition and finish required.

Why Restore Existing Metalwork?
