Design-Build Welding & Fabrication in Louisiana

You have a problem. We engineer the solution, fabricate the components, and install them — one contract, one team. Design-build welding and fabrication for Louisiana's toughest industrial challenges.

Why Louisiana Needs Expert Design-Build Services

Louisiana's Chemical Corridor — 85 miles of refineries and chemical plants between Baton Rouge and New Orleans — is the densest concentration of industrial facilities in North America. ExxonMobil Baton Rouge, Sasol Lake Charles, Cameron LNG, and 19 petroleum refineries processing over 3 million barrels per day require world-class welding contractors.

Key Louisiana Facilities We Serve: ExxonMobil Baton Rouge, Sasol Lake Charles, Cameron LNG, Sabine Pass LNG, Dow Plaquemine, Marathon Garyville, Phillips 66 Alliance
Pricing Note: Louisiana industrial welding rates are among the highest in the Gulf South due to turnaround season demand (March-May, September-November). Plan projects outside peak windows for 15-20% savings.

Frequently Asked Questions — Design-Build in Louisiana

What is design-build?

One contract covers engineering, fabrication, and installation. You describe the problem or need — we handle everything else. Faster, cheaper, and fewer coordination headaches than hiring separate engineers, fabricators, and installers.

Do you have licensed engineers?

Yes. PE-stamped designs available for structural, mechanical, and process applications. Licensed in Louisiana and neighboring states.

How long does a design-build project take?

Small mods: 2-4 weeks. Custom equipment: 4-8 weeks. Complex systems: 8-16 weeks. We compress schedules by running engineering and material procurement in parallel.

What's the minimum project size?

Minimum $5,000 for design-build projects. Below that threshold, it's usually more cost-effective to go with standard fabrication services.
