Metalwork services across Wellington, Kapiti, Porirua and the Hutt Valley
The Fabricator delivers stainless steel, aluminium and architectural metalwork for homes, builders and businesses across the Kapiti Coast, Wellington City, Porirua, the Hutt Valley and Wairarapa. Marine grade as standard, fabricated in our Kapiti Coast workshop or on site using our mobile rig, and installed by our own crew.
One workshop, six regions, one team you can trust
We design, fabricate and install metalwork that lasts either onsite or from our Kapiti workshop, then take it on the road across the greater Wellington region. From a single stainless handrail in Karori to a full commercial kitchen in Greytown, every job is delivered to spec by qualified fabricators and welders, signed off in house and built to stand up to the southerly and the salt.
Residential metalwork for homes across the Wellington region
Whether you are in a heritage villa in Mount Victoria, a coastal build on Kapiti or a hill site in Porirua, we work with homeowners and builders on installs that are safe, square and built to last. Site measure, fabrication and install handled by the same crew, with clear pricing and no surprises.
Built for safety
All balustrades and handrails meet NZBC F4 with engineer signoff where required. Marine grade stainless and aluminium specified for coastal suburbs from Plimmerton to Eastbourne so your install holds up over decades.
Built to last
Marine grade stainless and aluminium hold up to the salt, southerly and rain across Wellington, Kapiti and the Wairarapa. Buy once, replace less, and look after the planet at the same time.

What our Wellington customers are saying
Common metalwork questions from across the region
Living in 'Windy Wellington' means salt spray is a real factor. We offer several finishing options to prevent corrosion, including Hot Dip Galvanising, Powder Coating in a wide range of colours, and marine grade stainless steel. We can recommend the best finish based on how close your project will be to the coast.
We handle both. Whether it's a quick weld on a broken garden gate or a full set of custom handrails, no job is too small. If it's a quick fix, we can often fit it into our workshop schedule between larger projects to get it back to you as soon as possible.
For most custom projects, we require a 50% deposit to secure your spot in our production schedule and cover material costs. The remaining balance is due upon completion or installation.
Absolutely. For items like balustrades, handrails, or entrance canopies we fabricate to NZS 3404 or the relevant building codes. If your project requires a Producer Statement (PS3) for council sign-off, just let us know at the start of the project and we will ensure all documentation is provided.
Not at all. While we can work from formal CAD drawings, we are just as happy working with a clear description, photos of the space, or a hand-drawn sketch with basic dimensions. We will discuss the technical details with you to make sure the final result meets your needs.
