Industrial Steel Construction Company You Can Rely On

Steel Construction Service Company

T BAILEY LLC is an industrial steel construction company serving owners across the Pacific Northwest and West Coast from our facility in Anacortes, Washington. We fabricate and build welded steel structures, storage tanks, reservoirs, and the foundations that support them. Since 1991, engineers and project managers have brought us their steel construction projects because one company carries the work from first plate to a commissioned, working asset.

Full-Scope Steel Construction Services

Our steel construction services span the disciplines a heavy industrial project needs, from initial plate work through the final field weld. We take responsibility for each phase that decides whether a build holds its schedule and its budget.

  • Steel fabrication. Heavy steel fabrication turns raw construction steel into shells, plate assemblies, and structural members inside our shop.
  • Surface preparation and coating. Blasting and industrial coating are applied in our own booths before the steel ships or goes up on site.
  • Field construction and erection. For structures too large to move whole, our crews assemble and weld the steel where it will stand.

Fabrication and field work run under the same quality program, and one set of specifications governs the job from start to finish.

Steel Structures and Storage Tanks We Build

Most of our work as a steel structure construction company is welded steel built for long industrial service. On the storage side, we construct water and petroleum tanks, reservoirs, and standpipes. On the structural side, we build pressure vessels, penstocks, and the steel that frames treatment plants and fuel facilities. Any build too large to ship whole moves to our field-erected division and goes up on site.

Material choice follows the job. Carbon steel handles most structural and storage work economically. Stainless steel construction comes in where the product or the environment demands corrosion resistance. Owners planning welded storage vessels can route that scope to our storage tank fabrication team, where steel tank construction is engineered to the code that governs each product.

Certified Steel Construction Contractors

Certifications are the independent proof that a quality program holds up, and they are the first thing owners vetting steel construction contractors should check. T BAILEY LLC holds AISC Certified Fabricator accreditation with Sophisticated Paint Endorsements, a pairing few regional shops can claim, plus SSPC QP3 certification covering shop-applied blasting and coating. Our welding is qualified to code by AWS Certified Welding Inspectors, and field crews assemble to the standards behind AISC certified erection.

These credentials matter most on regulated water, fuel, and government work, where documentation has to satisfy the owner and the inspector alike. On that kind of project, we build the inspection record alongside the structure.

Built and Finished In Our Own Shop

Our Anacortes shop carries the equipment heavy steel work demands. Automated surface prep readies plate at production scale, large booths handle blasting and coating in a controlled environment, and our metallizing line shields steel bound for corrosive marine service. The finish goes on before erection, which holds it to specification and keeps field time short. Every stage carries its own inspection and test records, giving owners on regulated projects a documented history of the steel from mill certification through final coat.

Testimonial

There was no better intermediary for ensuring the construction project was always running smoothly and at its peak. They were a great coordinator and leader; able to convince everyone from subcontractors to engineers to follow their lead. This is because they exude knowledge and expertise that inspires trust in their work.

The Nyanza Tank and Booster Replacement had many scheduling hurdles to overcome by T Bailey. The District needed to build the new 2MG tank and booster station while keeping the existing online. T Bailey was able to work with the surrounding neighborhood, come up with innovative solutions, and bring the new tank and booster station online smoothly and with very few changes to the project.

I would like to suggest you work with the company, TBailey LLC
I strongly reference the partnership of the company for your contractor.

LAKEWOOD WATER DISTRICT

We appreciate the high quality work provided by T-Bailey and your subcontractors. The project was well managed and your team provided exceptional customer service to our neighboring customers throughout the project.

I want to personally thank you for your continual efforts to meet or exceed the contract requirements and for your personal and prompt attention to any questions or concerns.

We look forward to the opportunity to work with you on a future project.

Sincerely,

LAKE WHATCOM WATER & SEWER DISTRICT

T Bailey LLC has built over a dozen petroleum storage tanks for our site and rebuilt a number of others in our working tank farm in the last several years.

While known for their remarkable speed to complete their work, in our case, it has been done safely despite very congested working conditions with the other trades and often rough weather conditions- both high winds and rain. Work was stopped appropriately when wind was a problem and proper precautions were taken.

Highly experienced oversight was brought in on the more challenging tasks to insure safe completion at our site. T Bailey’s equipment is usually the newest and in the best condition, which I’m sure helps their success.

We’d recommend T Bailey LLC for future work.

TARGA SOUND TERMINAL LLC

T Bailey worked diligently from the initial quote stage through fabrication to meet the needs of our client and have demonstrated their professionalism and experience at every turn. They have opened their doors and entertained multiple visits from both ROC Equipment and SFI before and during the fabrication process. While onsite, T Bailey representatives answered various technical questions that demonstrated their vast knowledge of the product and the drilling industry in particular. The attention to detail and QA/QC was obvious when observing the fabrication process and both ROC and SFI were extremely impressed. Employees took great care in their work, which says a lot about the employees themselves, but also their employer. T Bailey has also been very amenable to any design changes and schedule changes that have been requested by our client.

Above all, it has been TBailey’s product that has been so superior. The exceptional rolling, welding, and flush grinding actually caused excitement when the casing arrived to the project jobsite.

Based on this response and our own satisfaction, T Bailey will be ROC’s casing fabricator of choice, regardless of where the project is located. Potential savings in shipping costs from a closer fabricator are not worth foregoing the high quality product offered by T Bailey.

Why Owners Choose T BAILEY LLC

Owners hire us because we self-perform the build. Fabrication and welding, surface preparation and coating, then testing and field erection are handled by T BAILEY LLC crews, which puts one chain of responsibility behind the project from plate to commissioning.

We also bring scale that regional builders struggle to match. Our Anacortes yard is equipped with large capacity cranes and heavy plate rolling lines, and our crews take on demanding and remote sites throughout Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, and the West Coast. We work as a structural steel construction company on the heavy load-bearing steel, and as a steel commercial construction company on the buildings and facilities that surround it. Long after commissioning, our tank repair and maintenance team keeps those assets in code compliance for decades.
