i'm looking for a cheap supplier of steel and aluminium in the surrey langley area .mostly for some small fab work such as roof rack skid plates , bumpers etc...
any help would be great . thanks ....jeff
I think what's getting even worse now is that the rise in steel/metal prices give every tool company the right to jack up their prices by like 30%. Carbide being the worst of all.
Well hopefully once Ontario gets it s biz booming again the costs will level out, but I doubt the tooling companies would drop their prices.
BAHSTAHDS!!!
Fasteel is cheaper than AJ for those large orders if anyone cares. And their delivery charge is $5 cheaper
Coast Mountain Steel in Yarrow still remembers what service is about
they have been great to deal with
they have quoted better then Alder everytime for me
add them to your list DanB, they even delivered to my home after work for an 20' stick of special order 1.25"x0.219"wall steering tubing
under $100
So where in the okanagan are you Okanagan /kelowna guys buying steel ?
I just got back a quote from AJ Forsyth and almost fell off my chair , considering that for $200 more i could have a local guy build the 12ft gate and it would be painted and ready to hang .

i use metal supermarkets in langley on 200th near #1. they have no minimum order and don't charge for cuts. you can also pick up stuff cheeper if you get end crops. i think there open saturday too. you can get quotes on the internet too at metalsupermarkets.com
There is a new shop like pnj that just opened in richmond, the guy that started it used to work a pnj, it is called mayor metals. His prices seem to be a little better.
I do not have the number but I can post is another day if anyone is interested.

went to metal superstore yesterday in still creek area and holy **** they ripped me off....
$140 for a 20 foot chunk of hot rolled round that was hollow.....
They lost my business:welder
I actually have a source for whatever but i am worried to tell where it is after figuring all metal has jumped in price.. After i stock up on all i need i will give my location out maybe:lame
barzal on 84th between 128th and 132nd I think does thi kind of stuff not sure what you can buy there just know they are accross the road from work
may not be cheap and it may just be a office look it up in the phone book give them a call
Metalmart in Port Kells has been extremely good to me. They give good prices - WAY WAY better then the guys at Metalsupermarket down the street - those supermarket guys are pretty clueless somedays when I've had to go there.
Metalmart on the other hand will cut you whatever you want and has a well equipment machine shop (Big/Small lathes, milling machine, 200T press, brake press, shear press, tig/mig/stick fab) and will bring in plastics and oddball materials for you.
And if you get something machined there you will get very good quality parts.
I wont go anywhere else now good service good prices and friendly staff.
I was in port kells for another reason today and passed metalmart by accident. now i know where its at I want to make a second tank but the price of aluminum is a big high. Perfer a cheap used boat tank for my use made out of poly.
