Precision laser cutting, sheet metal fabrication and welding from a six-strong team with close to forty years at the bench. Empress Road, Southampton — turning drawings into metal since 1977.
S.W Asgood Engineering Ltd has been working metal on Empress Road since 1977. That's nearly half a century of sparks, drawings, deliveries and decisions made by people who actually know the trade.
We're a small team — six of us in total — and we like it that way. It means the person quoting your job is the person cutting it, the person cutting it is the person checking it, and the person checking it is the person whose name is on the building. Nothing gets lost in translation.
Most of our work walks through the door on the back of a recommendation. Commercial contracts, domestic one-offs, architectural features, brackets, gates, frames, prototypes and full production runs — we treat the small job with the same care as the large one. Fast, flexible, and quietly proud of the finish.
High-precision cutting of sheet metal to tight tolerances. Clean edges, complex geometries, minimal clean-up — straight from your DXF or drawing to finished part.
Light sheet metal engineering — folding, forming, joining and finishing. Brackets, enclosures, panels and structural components built to spec.
Range of metal welding for domestic, commercial and industrial purposes. Structural, cosmetic and everything between — laid down clean.
Metal gates, railings, staircases and architectural features designed, fabricated and installed for homes and businesses across Hampshire.
Need one of something? Bring us the drawing. We're well known locally for being fast and flexible on the unusual jobs other workshops won't touch.
Repeat batches and ongoing contract work for commercial clients. Reliable turnaround, consistent quality, and the same team every time.
Call or email. Bring a drawing, a sketch, or just an idea — we'll talk material, tolerance, quantity and timeline.
Clear pricing, usually same day. No jargon, no surprise add-ons. The price we say is the price you pay.
