who we are

Raising structures and expectations.

Founded in 1960, Cooper Steel is a national leader in steel fabrication and erection. Our team of skilled tradespeople, project managers, estimators, and detailers have helped set and exceed industry standards for more than 65 years – never settling for good enough. With experience building in sectors including manufacturing, distribution, aerospace, commercial, and more, we’re equipped and ready to take on any challenge.

Above all else, people are at the heart of what we do. From day one, we’ve stood as a family owned and operated business, and when you work with us, you’re family, too.
