👀 DID YOU KNOW PROFAB ENGINEERING PROVIDE BESPOKE GUTTERING SYSTEMS?

That’s right… we don’t just make steel structures and staircases!

Here’s a recent bespoke guttering system we manufactured for one of our regular customers.

Manufactured from anthracite-coated Plastisol, the guttering was carefully folded, formed and fabricated by our talented team to create a solution specifically suited to the project.

It’s another great example of the kind of bespoke fabrication we can produce in-house. If you’ve got a requirement that’s a little out of the ordinary, give us a call — if it can be made, we’ll do our best to make it happen! 💪

🏠 ROOFING COMPANIES — THIS ONE’S FOR YOU!

If you’re a local roofer or know a roofing company that could benefit from bespoke guttering, flashings or sheet metal fabrications, get in touch with us.

👀 You may have noticed things have been a little quiet on our socials lately…

But trust us, it certainly hasn’t been quiet at ProFab Engineering! 🔩

The last few months have been non-stop, with a really good mix of projects keeping the workshop and site teams busy.

We’ve completed a nice selection of structural steel jobs, along with a couple of bespoke staircases, and we’ve also been building some great relationships with local and regional building contractors.

In fact, we’ve now gained a fair few builders as regular customers, which is something we’re really pleased about. Our BS EN 1090 certification means the structural steelwork we manufacture for these projects is produced under controlled, traceable processes and to the required standard.

And when that steel is going into someone’s home, that extra level of quality control and traceability really matters. 🏠💪

We’ve got more staircases to show you too — including one particular project that we’re really looking forward to showcasing very soon. It’s a bit of a special one, so keep your eyes peeled! 👀

So, apologies for being quiet… we’ve just been too busy making things! 😂

There’s plenty more to come from ProFab Engineering, and we’ll be making up for lost time with some of the projects we’ve been working on

✈️ Project Spotlight | ProFab Engineering ✈️

At ProFab Engineering, we’re proud to have recently worked in collaboration with a leading flagpole manufacturer to produce nine cantilever masts destined for use on airport runways, assisting approaching aircraft at Heraklion International Airport.

These specialist mid-hinge structures were manufactured by our skilled team with a strong focus on precision, quality, and on-time delivery. All work was completed in accordance with BS EN 1090, with full traceability maintained throughout materials, manufacturing processes, and quality control procedures.

The completed masts are now on their way to the beautiful island of Crete, where they will play an important role in airport operations.

We’re delighted to have received such positive feedback from our client and are incredibly proud of the contribution our team has made to this project.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for their hard work and commitment to delivering another successful project.

We’ve been a little quiet on social media lately… but that definitely doesn’t mean we haven’t been busy 👀🔥

At ProFab Engineering, the workshop has been full on – and what’s been even better is just how many returning customers have come back to us for more work. That’s what it’s all about.

Recently, we installed a mezzanine floor for a returning client. This one was fitted to existing steelwork, which meant on-site welding was required – welding cleats onto the existing steel so the new steel could pick up correctly. A great project to be trusted with, and another example of adapting new work to existing structures safely and efficiently.

We also fabricated and installed an industrial-style staircase to complement a stunning new building that’s still under construction. The staircase fits beautifully alongside the build – and before the project was even finished, they’d already asked us back to fabricate a balcony for the other side. We love building long-term working relationships like that.

Our old friends at Babuls Indian Restaurant invited us back to help with their restaurant refit in Barnard Castle. We fabricated a bespoke steel bar with glass panels to showcase Babul’s artwork, along with back bars, w**e racks, and a glass hanger above the bar. It’s always a pleasure working with familiar faces and seeing a project come together.

And another valued returning customer came back for more of our security pods, manufactured for various sites across the UK. These pods are designed to enable 360-degree security cameras to operate effectively – a growing demand, and we’re proud to be their trusted supplier.

It’s repeat business like this that keeps us moving forward. We don’t just fabricate steel – we build relationships.

If you’re looking for a reliable engineering and fabrication partner, you know where we are.

A Proud Day for ProFab Engineering!

Yesterday marked a special moment for our team as our Director, Jamie, was invited to 11 Downing Street by Lola McEvoy, MP for Darlington, to discuss the real challenges faced by small businesses like ours.

Jamie had the opportunity to meet Chancellor Rachel Reeves and several MPs from across the North East, ensuring that the voices of local businesses were heard at the very highest level. To top it off, Lola’s team even treated him to an incredible tour of Parliament — a truly memorable experience!

We’re passionate about keeping the conversation going:
👉 Continue supporting small and local businesses
👉 Share their stories and posts
👉 Keep contracts and supply chains local whenever possible

Small businesses are the heartbeat of the UK economy, and we’re hopeful that the concerns we raised will help bring about meaningful change 🤞🇬🇧

(We also want to acknowledge that everyone’s personal political views are completely valid — what unites us is our shared belief in supporting hardworking local businesses and communities.)

Happy Retirement

Last week, Stu Ward, our senior tradesman retired.

Stu, came to us 3 years ago to help out on a job for 3 weeks. 3 years later he was still in the factory wrestling with Steel

Stu’s knowledge of the industry is second to none. The things he can do with a burning torch might as well be Harry Potter’s wand as it can only be described as magic. Which is lucky for wagon drivers that regularly drive into the posts in our yard and Stu has to straighten them

But all jokes aside, Stu has been a vital part of our success and we can only thank him for his service

So last week we took him for a curry and a pint and although he he’s at retirement age he lasted till 1am and this was the only photo we managed to capture of the night.

Thanks for everything Stu and we will see you on the Christmas do for another curry and 1am finish haha
