2 DEMONSTRATING EXCELLENCE AT EVERY LEVEL

Established in 2001, we are an ever-growing, family-owned business with an enduring commitment to demonstrating excellence to each and every one of our customers, on each and every level. As a starting point, we offer our customers quality and selection; we offer a complete range of eminently affordable, quality steel products including fencing (including neighbour friendly, custom-made pool and post/rail options), verandas, sheds/outbuildings, roofing, miscellaneous materials and tools. To this we mix in a dose of convenience: not only do we offer a range of steel services, but have also expanded our facility over time, in order to offer our clients a still better selection across our product and service lines.

We know that maintaining our status as a leader in the industry doesn’t only involve maintaining a substantial product line — this is why, true to our Bargain Steel Centre name, we unceasingly work to keep our prices as affordable as possible, while also ensuring exceptionally good service, too. Simply put, we owe it to our customers to offer the best of all worlds through substantial selection, quality products, affordable prices, and exceptional service.
