Wellfleet Steel Works

Wellfleet Steel Works is a custom metal fabrication shop on Cape Cod, run out of 15 Kear Circle in Wellfleet since Matt McPartland founded it in 1986 after starting out welding steel for commercial fishing boats while working as an offshore fisherman himself. The shop does structural and architectural steelwork for architects and custom builders — staircases, railings, trusses, facades and custom furnishings — alongside boat-building and gear fabrication for the commercial fishing and aquaculture industries, plus milling, machining, welding, metal finishing, crane service and waterjet cutting. The handful of written reviews on file are strongly positive: in a 2016 review a customer said Matt had "helped me out of a jam more than once" with "excellent work and customer service," and in a 2017 review another called him "knowledgeable, friendly, and more than capable" for metal fabrication work anywhere on the Cape. Google's own listing shows a 5-star rating, though from just 2 ratings. Anyone considering Wellfleet Steel Works should ask directly about current pricing, timelines and availability, since the written record on file is limited to two older reviews and doesn't speak to recent turnaround or workload. For structural, architectural or marine metal fabrication on the Cape, this is a long-tenured, owner-run specialist with a positive but thin public track record worth confirming directly.
