A decade on the shop floor and on site.

Moretextsandtalks Engineering is a trade outfit, not a contractor's front office. The work is fitter general, fabrication and welding, done by tradespeople who have been doing it for over ten years — mechanical assembly and alignment on site, custom steel fabricated from drawing to finished structure in the shop, and structural and pipe welding to code.

We take work across the Niger Delta — Warri, Port Harcourt and the sites between them — on industrial, commercial and residential jobs: plant steelwork and process piping, warehouse structures, access platforms and balustrades, plant shutdown fitting on tight windows. Where the drawing is incomplete, we do the take-off ourselves and come back with a marked-up sheet before a single length is cut.

  • ±1.5 mm Typical fit-up tolerance on fabricated assemblies
  • 48 hrs Turnaround on a firm, priced quotation
  • 100% Welds by coded welders, visually inspected before dispatch

Fitter general

Site fitting, mechanical assembly, alignment and installation. Machine and conveyor set-out, plant shutdown fitting, bolt-up and torque to spec, dimensional checks recorded on handover.

  • Mechanical assembly & alignment
  • Plant shutdown & breakdown fitting
  • Set-out, shimming and levelling

Fabrication

Custom steel fabrication from drawing to finished structure, in the shop or on site. Material take-off, cutting, forming, drilling and assembly in mild steel, stainless and aluminium.

  • Structural steel & support frames
  • Platforms, stairs, handrail & balustrade
  • Ducting, hoppers and plate work
Welder in full protective gear laying a weld, sparks arcing off the joint.

Welding

Structural and pipe welding by coded welders. MIG, TIG and stick as the joint and material call for it, with procedures matched to the drawing and welds visually inspected before dispatch.

  • Structural steel welding to drawing
  • Pipe welding — carbon & stainless
  • On-site repair and build-up welding

Five steps, in this order, every time.

How we quote →

  1. 01

    Site survey & scope

    We measure on site, confirm access and services, and write the scope down in plain terms so there is no argument later about what was included.

  2. 02

    Drawing & material take-off

    Marked-up shop drawings and a full take-off — sections, plate, consumables and fasteners — priced and sent back inside 48 hours.

  3. 03

    Fabrication

    Cut, formed, drilled and assembled in the shop against the drawing, with fit-up checked before any joint is closed out.

  4. 04

    Quality inspection

    Dimensional check and visual weld inspection against the procedure. Non-conformances are cut out and re-run, not dressed over.

  5. 05

    Installation & handover

    Delivered, erected and fitted on site, with an as-built mark-up, torque records and a signed handover sheet.
