has been serving the midwest regional construction industry since 1956 as the preferred provider of miscellaneous and structural steel fabrication. Our reputation is built on customer service and reliability. To put it simply, our reputation is built of steel. While the company may have started in 1956 in south St. Louis as a family-operated welding company, today our structural steel supports man

y of the commercial buildings throughout the area and our miscellaneous fabrication can be seen in entry canopies and stairwells in many prominent places in St. Louis. At AFWC, we believe a project must be correct on paper before a piece of steel gets fabricated. We go to great lengths to ensure this is true because it saves the customer time and money. Our commitment to quality and customer service is represented in every aspect of the services we provide. This commitment has been recognized by St. Louis area general contractors as well, as we are a past winner and five-time nominee of the ASA Midwest Council Subcontractor of the Year award, given out annually. Whether you are building a small retail building or a 1 million sq/ft distribution center, chances are that Affton Fabricating & Welding Co., Inc. has completed a project similar in design and scope. Schools, churches, and hospitals are often the center of a community, and in addition to our commercial projects, AFWC takes pride in the fact that we have been the steel fabricator of choice for many institutional projects in the area. However, no project is too small and we have been selected on numerous occasions to provide specialized frames, guardrails, equipment racks, and structural components for building owners and tenants. It is our goal to provide you with all your needs relating to the steel on your project, including:

*Steel Fabrication & Erection Budgeting
*Design / Build Partner
*Pre-Construction Management

Affton Fabricating & Welding Co., Inc. is proud to announce the successful completion of our 2025 independent audit of our Quality Management System by the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) for Certified Building Fabricator certification.

This year’s audit concluded with zero corrective actions, reflecting our team’s continued commitment to excellence and quality in every project we deliver.

Pending AISC panel review, we anticipate our certification renewal for 2025–2026.

We view these independent audits not as a challenge, but as an opportunity to validate our processes and uphold the nearly 70-year tradition of quality and reliability that our customers have come to expect from AFWC.

Shining a spotlight on our own Hannah Tucker for !

This outstanding woman will be graduating from Truman State University this May with not one, but TWO degrees, a BS in Accounting and a BS in Business Administration.

She has worked remotely for two years while pursuing her degree, and her decision to enter the dynamic world of construction is both inspiring and commendable.

Choosing a path less traveled is the key to in any industry.

Hannah's commitment to excellence and passion for construction is a testament to the immense talent women bring to this field.

We admire Hannah's determination, hard work, and courage to challenge stereotypes.

As she steps into the construction industry full-time, we have no doubt that she will continue to make a significant impact and inspire other women to do the same.

Cheers to Hannah Tucker and all the women who are shaping the future of construction!

Today we had an on-site American Institute of Steel Construction audit for our annual AISC Building Fabricator certification.

The audit went well, and the auditor found ZERO Corrective Actions and ZERO Nonconformances to our Quality Management System. Better yet, the auditor was also able to identify a few areas of strengths that sets AFWC us apart from other fabricators and even offered some suggestions for future improvements. Most importantly though, he provided another set of independent eyes on our processes. We are a strong team!

The audit went well, and while the auditor found a few areas for improvement that we can improve on; which is one of the benefits of going through the audit process by an outside party. However, the BEST NEWS is that for the 2nd year in a row we had ZERO Corrective Actions issued. We are a strong team!

Yesterday, we welcomed an AISC auditor in to our fabrication facility to audit our Quality Management System. In simplest form, its a check to make sure that we say what we do, and do what we say.

The audit went great. We received quality feedback but were also able to pinpoint where improvement is needed. In the end, it was a great experience and we have been recommended for another year of certification.

Affton Fabricating & Welding Co., Inc. just completed its 2018 independent audit of our Quality Management System by the American Institute of Steel Construction for the Certified Building Fabricator certification.

We are pleased to announce that this year's audit of AFWC's Quality Management System did not result in a single Corrective Action to be issued by the independent auditor. We expect, upon panel review by AISC, that our certification will be renewed for 2019.

While some companies may balk at the idea of an independent auditor coming in and checking on their processes, we welcome the opportunity as a check on our systems, and to ensure we stay true to the 60+ year tradition our customers have come to expect.
