Turnkey steel fabrication and erection services
Patriot Erectors delivers steel construction in Texas, handling both fabrication and erection. It began in 1991 as an erection-only shop and became a turnkey provider by adding in-house fabrication, enabling projects to move from fabrication to installation. The firm grew to over 250 employees and earned AISC certification for both fabrication and erection, expanding through the Trinity Steel Fabricators acquisition in 2019 and private equity ownership in 2018. Its goal is to offer integrated, on-site steel construction with reliable scheduling and coordinated fabrication-to-erection execution for Texas projects.
