Built in Ibadan since 2009

We started with two welding bays and one truck. Today 42 people design, make and raise steel for clients across Nigeria, from the same corner of Agodi.

What we believe

Steel should be honest work

Every structure carries people, stock or water over people’s heads. So we size it properly, weld it properly and show you the proof: drawings, certificates and paint readings.

We would rather lose a job on price than win it with steel too light for the load.

Straight prices

Itemised quotes, held for 14 days, with no extras added once we are on site.

Safe sites

Lift plans, harnesses and a safety officer on every erection.

Local skill

Our welders are trained here in Ibadan and stay with us for years.

Clients

In their words

★★★★★

They came to Ojoo with a crane, a crew of nine and a plan for every lift. The roof was sheeted two weeks before the first heavy rain.

Kunle, example client, distribution manager
★★★★★

Our cathedral trusses had to be beautiful as well as strong. Ironbridge sent shop drawings we could actually understand and the finish is lovely.

Rev. Adeyemi, example client
★★★★★

The estimator was within eight per cent of the final invoice. No surprises, and they sent DFT readings for the paint without being asked.
