About Anderson Engineering & Welding Services
Anderson Engineering & Welding Services Ltd (AEWS) is an independent engineering company established in 2022, providing specialist welding, fabrication, industrial pipework and mechanical engineering services across Greater Manchester, the North West and beyond.
We support industrial and manufacturing businesses with workshop fabrication, coded welding, process pipework installation, mechanical equipment installation, plant modifications and industrial maintenance.
Our approach combines practical engineering experience, technical knowledge and a commitment to delivering reliable solutions tailored to the requirements of each project.
From individual fabrication requirements to more involved industrial engineering packages, we work closely with our clients to provide professional, responsive and technically informed services.
Our Story
Anderson Engineering & Welding Services was founded in 2022 by Lewis Anderson following a 16-year career in the maritime engineering industry.
During his maritime career, Lewis progressed through engineering roles to become Chief Engineer aboard ocean-going vessels, gaining extensive experience in mechanical engineering, maintenance management, machinery systems, fault diagnosis and the operation of complex industrial equipment.
Following his return to shore-based engineering, Lewis established AEWS, incorporating the experience and foundations of Anderson Welding Services, the welding business previously operated by his father, Stuart Anderson.
This combination of maritime engineering experience and established fabrication knowledge helped shape the company's practical, problem-solving approach to industrial engineering.
Since its establishment, AEWS has developed its services to support manufacturing and process industries, providing specialist welding, fabrication, mechanical installation and plant maintenance solutions.
Our Engineering Capabilities
AEWS provides a range of complementary engineering services, allowing clients to coordinate fabrication, welding and mechanical installation requirements through a single contractor.
Our capabilities include:
Industrial pipework fabrication and installation
Coded welding and specialist welding services

By combining workshop manufacturing with on-site engineering services, we can support projects from initial fabrication through to installation, inspection and testing, according to the technical requirements of each application.
Welding Quality & Technical Standards
Welding quality and technical competence are central to our fabrication and engineering services.
Our welding activities are undertaken using appropriate procedures, personnel qualifications and quality control measures according to the requirements of each project.
Where specified, our services can incorporate welding procedure documentation, material certification, traceability, inspection and non-destructive testing.
We review technical and regulatory requirements during the enquiry and planning stages to establish the appropriate arrangements before work begins.
Our approach is based on delivering reliable workmanship while maintaining clear and accurate communication about the scope and requirements of each project.
Supporting Industrial & Manufacturing Clients
AEWS supports engineering and maintenance departments across chemical processing, industrial manufacturing and related production environments.
Our services include planned maintenance activities, scheduled plant shutdowns, machinery installations, replacement fabrications, process pipework modifications and engineering improvement projects.
We recognise the importance of maintaining production continuity and working safely within operational industrial facilities.
By combining responsive workshop fabrication with practical on-site engineering capabilities, we aim to provide clients with dependable support for both planned projects and individual engineering requirements.
Looking Ahead
Our ambition is to continue developing AEWS into a structured engineering company recognised for technical competence, quality workmanship and reliable project delivery.
We are committed to strengthening our internal systems, developing our people and continually improving the processes that support our engineering services.
As the business grows, our focus remains on building long-term client relationships and delivering practical engineering solutions that meet the demands of modern industry.
