STAINLESS STEEL WORXSHOP IN STILBAAI
“There never was a good knife made of bad steel”
– Benjamin Franklin
We advise, design, manufacture and install mainly stainless steel products such as balustrades, staircases, boat accessories, bull bars and roll bars. Our main commodity is stainless steel, but we also work with plain steel. To handle stainless steel properly, requires a special skill which not every welder has.
Where are we?
Our workshop is in the Industrial Area on the eastern side of the Goukou River running through the town. Stilbaai is a fast growing coastal town in the Hessequa area of the Garden Route in the Western Cape province of South Africa. We bought the business from its previous owners and changed its name to Stainless Steel Worxshop. We make use of quality materials and our precision fabrications speak for themselves.
How do we operate?
Our products are designed and fabricated to every individual customer’s requirements and specifications. Bring your need for any article or item for your home, your vehicle, your boat, your business to us and we will design, manufacture and install where necessary.
Let us manufacture and install a stainless steel braai complete with chimney and weather vane in your new house. Or jazz up your new bakkie with stainless steel bull bars and roll bars.
Moreover, allow us to install a custom designed fishing rod holder in your fishing charter boat. We could even help you with extractor fans in your newly renovated restaurant kitchen.
Discuss with us your plan, your dream, your specifications and we will do the rest.
Who are our clients?
Since we are situated in Stilbaai, the majority of our clients come from the Stilbaai/Jongensfontein area. This is not the only coastal town around where people own boats and trailers and bakkies and need stainless steel accessories. The non-corrosive property of stainless steel makes it the perfect material from which to manufacture such accessories.
Furthermore numerous people from all over the country own holiday homes in Stilbaai or Jongensfontein. Many of them own boats, trailers and bakkies which they might want to equip with stainless steel accessories. There is no better time to attend to such needs and there is no company better to approach to do the job.
New home-owners, builders, architects and engineers are also among our clients. Stilbaai is a growing town which results in many new buildings being erected. We are proud to mention that staircases, balustrades and handrails, custom designed, manufactured as well as installed by Stainless Steel Worxshop adorn many a home in the area.
