Precision sheet metal fabrication & laser cutting.
Send us your drawing and we turn it into a finished metal part. We laser cut up to 25mm, then fold, punch, weld and fabricate in mild steel, stainless and aluminium. Manufacturers across Manchester and the North West have trusted our Stockport workshop since 1976. Whether you need a single bespoke part or a high-volume production run, we handle both.

Nearly fifty years
Nearly half a century fabricating metal in Stockport. Not many problems reach us that we haven’t already solved.
The whole job here
Cutting, folding, punching, welding, fabrication and assembly all happen in the same building.
Lead times you can plan around
We quote a date and we keep it. Careful nesting keeps the shop moving and holds your costs down.
Right first time
Fewer hand-offs between cutting and finished part means fewer mistakes, and less rework for you.
Prototype or production
From small bespoke one-offs to high-volume production runs, priced sensibly either way.
Drawings sorted
We take DXF, DWG and STEP, and reverse-engineer a sample when there is no drawing to work from.
From your file to a finished part.
A straightforward six-step run that protects quality, cost and lead time, whether it is one prototype or a full batch.

What our customers say
★★★★★ 5.0 from 7 Google reviews
Fantastic company, just getting up and running under new management, manual and CNC machines available, also a small part of a large company.
I’ve used Jem Sheet Metal for at least three manufacturing orders of brackets for the loudspeakers I make, and they are really efficient, with good communication and the product is very well produced. It’s also great to use a local company to make these metal products instead of buying from overseas, keep Britain manufacturing!
Friendly, helpful and they’ve got some state-of-the-art machines. They’re happy to accommodate the DIYer as well as the big guys.
Fast, friendly, efficient service, at a good price.
