Steel & metal work

When the solution needs cutting, welding, strengthening, rebuilding or fabricating, we can help take it from damaged component to protected finished piece.

Fabrication that works with the final protection system

We handle steel repairs and custom fabrication with the corrosion environment in mind. Weld repairs, new brackets, structural changes and replacement sections can be prepared and coated as one complete workflow instead of passing a problem between different trades.

Repair before replacement where it makes sense

A damaged or corroded part does not always need to be thrown away. We assess whether it can be repaired safely and economically, then restore the surface and protection around that repair.

Bring us the odd jobs too

Some of the best workshop work starts with a customer saying, ‘I don’t know who does this.’ If the job combines metal, corrosion, repair or a practical fabrication challenge, send it to us and we’ll assess it.

Repair

Restore damaged components where a sound repair is the sensible answer.

Fabricate

Build one-off steel components and practical modifications around your requirement.

Protect

Prepare and coat repaired steel so corrosion protection is part of the job, not an afterthought.

Common questions

What customers ask us.

Do you do custom steel fabrication in Ballito?

Yes. We handle suitable one-off components, brackets, repairs, modifications and refurbishment work for residential, commercial, agricultural and industrial customers in Ballito. Contact Kobus to discuss your project.

Can you repair and protect the same steel component?

Yes. Where appropriate, we can combine cutting, welding or rebuilding with surface preparation and a suitable corrosion-protection coating system.

Can you reproduce an obsolete metal part?

Often we can assess the original part, measurements or equipment and recommend fabrication, repair, machining support or a prototype route depending on the required strength and accuracy.

The Rust & Coat approach

Start with the problem.

We can assess the surface, repair requirement and exposure conditions before recommending a system.
