From humble beginnings to trusted experts

From Redundancy to Rising Business!

Our team didn't just meet yesterday.

Sometimes the best businesses start with a chance encounter.

In 2024, Gareth set out to create something more meaningful, a fabrication business built on skill, creativity, and old-school craftsmanship. When he later reconnected with Andy, the idea gained the right partner and GA Fabrications took shape.

What started as two industry veterans wondering "what next?" became a thriving fabrication business built on decades of expertise and a shared vision for quality craftsmanship.

70 years of know-how!

We may have launched in late 2024, but we're far from beginners. Between us, we bring over 70 years of hands-on experience in metal fabrication. We've worked across the industry, managed teams, and seen what works (and what doesn't).

Craft over clicks

We believe the future belongs to makers. That’s why we’re bringing back hands-on apprenticeships for young people who want to build, create, and get stuck in.

From Idea to Impact with RISE Hastings

When Gareth and Andrew were starting GA Fabrications, the RISE Hastings Programme provided valuable guidance and support. We're proud to be part of a network that's helping businesses grow and thrive in East Sussex.
