Shiv Shakti Steel Fab

Our workshop is at 20 T P Street, in the 6th Kumbharwada area near Grant Road. It is a very crowded part of the city, and our shop is right in the thick of it. We do steel fabrication, which basically means we spend our days welding, cutting, and grinding steel. It’s loud and there are sparks flying most of the time. We have a small team of guys who have been with us for years. We don't have much room for anything that isn't a tool or a piece of steel. The street outside is always full of people and carts. It can be hard to even get a delivery truck close to the door sometimes. We just make it work. We aren't a big factory; we are just a local shop. Our hands are usually dirty from the soot and the metal. We don't use fancy computer programs to design things. We usually just sketch it out on a piece of paper or right on the floor. It’s how we’ve always done it. The heat from the welding torches makes the shop very warm, especially in the afternoons. We take breaks when we can and just keep plugging away at the orders. It’s steady work and we are happy to be part of the neighborhood here at Grant Road. We don't need any big signs. People find us because we've been here on T P Street forever and we just get the work done.
