Our story

The story behind the foundation of our fabrication firm

Established in 2014 as a sister company to Landmarc, who specialise in environmental engineering, our family run business is driven by a profound passion for creativity and a commitment to delivering exceptional craftsmanship. At Dart Fabrication, we understand that every project is unique, and our small team of skilled craftsmen take pride in pushing the boundaries of design to create one-of-a-kind structures. Our journey began with a vision to redefine the traditional approach to fabrication, and over the years, we have honed our skills, embraced cutting-edge technologies, and fostered a culture of innovation.

As a company, we believe in the power of collaboration and the importance of understanding our clients' aspirations. Whether it's an intricate bridge spanning a serene landscape, elegantly designed railings enhancing architectural aesthetics, or sturdy gates providing security with style, Dart Fabrication is dedicated to exceeding expectations.

Our Mission

We thrive on delivering meaningful design work for our clients

We work in both the private and public sector and are committed to meeting high standards of safety and quality and are certified to BS EN 1090, execution class 3 for those bigger, slightly more complex projects.

We are passionate about creating something special for each client, and that's what we believe sets us apart from larger companies that may prioritise quantity over quality. We do not mass produce and like each and everyone of our projects to be bespoke and unique, working closely with the customer to grasp their vision and turn it into reality.

Mark Brooks

Highly recommended

We are really pleased with our new galvanized railings and gate they both look fantastic. A very professional job. Makes the front of our property look so much better. Also really pleased with the modifications Ed made to our Brian James trailer have had many admirers and compliments from the Motorsport world - having a winch to get the race car on the trailer has made things so much easier. A big thank you to both Ben and Ed for a great job all round highly recommended.

Could not be more delighted

Designed, fabricated and installed an external staircase for me. I wanted something that blended in well with the existing external fittings and could not be more delighted with the outcome – many thanks!

Ben and the team did a fantastic job designing, fabricating and installing multiple galvanised hand-rails which all look superb. A very friendly bunch who will help and advise you from start to finish with a smile.
