Expert Steel Fabrication & Erection Services in Queensland
Universal Welding Services has been a family-owned and operated business since 1980, delivering advanced steel fabrication and erection solutions across Australia's east coast. Our expertise spans structural and architectural steelwork, from small standalone structures to complex commercial projects exceeding 2000 tonnes. We maintain full control over our processes by employing permanent teams of expert riggers, crane operators, and drafters, supported by cutting-edge technology such as 3D scanning and Trimble set-out equipment. Our 3000+ square metre facility houses automated steel processing machinery to ensure precision and efficiency in every fabricated assembly. We own mobile cranes, semi-trailers, and delivery vehicles to guarantee timely project execution without reliance on third parties.Our in-house drafting department utilises Tekla Structures software for accurate 3D modelling and BIM coordination, minimising clashes and optimising installation sequences. With decades of experience, we prioritise quality-certified production systems that meet specifications on the first attempt, every time. Our commitment to innovation ensures clients receive smarter, more efficient steelwork solutions tailored to their timelines and budgets. We serve commercial and industrial construction sectors, combining technical expertise with reliable service to deliver successful project outcomes. Our systems and equipment investments reflect our dedication to maintaining industry leadership in steel fabrication and erection.

Services
Steel Fabrication
Our 3000+ sqm facility produces precision-engineered steel components using automated machinery. We handle projects from small structures to complex commercial builds exceeding 2000 tonnes. Quality-certified processes ensure accurate fabrication on the first attempt, every time.
Erection
We deploy owned mobile cranes and employ permanent riggers and crane operators for full project control. This eliminates third-party dependencies, ensuring timely installation aligned with specifications and safety standards across Australia's east coast.
3D Scanning
Advanced 3D scanning captures precise site measurements, eliminating guesswork in drafting. This technology accelerates project timelines while ensuring fabricated steel fits perfectly during installation without modifications.
Drafting
In-house drafters use Tekla Structures software to create accurate 3D models and drawings. BIM coordination identifies potential clashes with other services, optimising installation sequences for smarter, more efficient project outcomes.
Field Set Out
Trimble set-out equipment transfers digital models directly to construction sites, achieving precise measurements in reduced timeframes. This eliminates manual surveying delays while maintaining accuracy for complex steel installations.
