Steel fabrication for Essex

MAH Steel fabricates structural steel at our Gravesend workshop in Kent for building projects across Essex, from Southend-on-Sea, Basildon and Thurrock in the south to Chelmsford, Colchester and Harlow, with delivery by lorry-mounted crane (HIAB). Essex lies across the Thames from our workshop, and the Dartford Crossing links the two.

Getting steel from Gravesend into Essex means crossing the Thames, and the Dartford Crossing is the link. The crossing is charged under the Dart Charge scheme, paid per crossing with no toll booths, so it is a cost to allow for on deliveries into the county. The route onwards is chosen per delivery, according to where the steel is going.

For south Essex, the M25 after the crossing meets the A13 at junction 30 and the A127 at junction 29. The A13 leads east to Tilbury and Stanford-le-Hope, and the A127 and A13 reach Basildon and Southend-on-Sea. For mid and north Essex, junction 28 of the M25 at Brentwood joins the A12, which runs north-east to Chelmsford and on to Colchester. The M11, from junction 27, serves Epping Forest, Chigwell and the north-west of the county, including Stansted.
