Prefabrication Services

  • Q: What if we already have a fabrication shop?

    A: Many of our customers do fabricate at some level. Whether in their own shops, or in the field. The difference maker that Premier offers is our automated tooling and our engineering department. These two advantages allow for standardization and repeated oversight for all our projects. We can prepare your custom pieces in a fraction of the time it takes with traditional tools and ship the parts out to be further prefabricated or assembled on your schedule. In the field, to cut and prep a 4” piece of pipe for a weld takes about 30mins. With PMI Fabrication, we can cut and prep your 4” pipe in 33 seconds. 

  • Q: Who delivers to the jobsite?

    A: Another advantage to Premier Prefabrication is that after the material is assembled in our shop, we will ship to whatever staging point is required. Our fleet of vehicles also includes a Boom Truck that offers enhanced mobility for delivery.

  • Q: What happens if it doesn’t fit through a door?

    A: Here at Premier, we create modular pieces depending on the circumstances of the location. We can work with each projects individual constraints to come up with a customized solution for your project. We encourage you to send us an inquiry on how we can help. 

  • Q: What are the benefits of requesting Prefabrication?

    A:  Prefabrication allows your most experienced employees to work on other more detailed jobs while Premier works in the background. Additionally, this allows more jobs to be completed simultaneously with the increased production. We cut down on the costs, leaving more room for profit. Since all our work is done in the shop, we can work around other trades and have everything shipped when ready. From there you can assemble on-site. 

  • Q: How much faster can you work in the shop rather than the field?

    A: A field weld takes an average of 3 mins per 1” diameter of pipe. A fabricated weld can be done in less than 1 minute. In the field, to cut and prep a 4” piece of pipe for a weld takes about 30mins. With Premier’s Fabrication we can cut and prep your 4” pipe in 33 seconds. Just these accelerated processes allow for jobs to be completed more than twice as fast. Furthermore, this is only a glimpse of what our shop equipment can offer. 

  • Q: Do you provide drawings and scans?

    A: Our experienced engineering department creates detailed drawings of all projects with advanced Trimble technology. Our impressive laser scans can be as precise as 1/16” of an inch. 

  • Q: What industries do you provide for?

    A: While we work primarily in HVAC, we have extensive experience working in food and industrial processing. We encourage you to reach out if you have questions about your industry. 

  • Q: Will using fabrication decrease the amount of field hours I have for my internal labor forces?

    A: Our customers who have routinely used our services have actually seen an increase in both revenue and hours because they are able to use our fabrication services as a competitive advantage to get more work.
