Commercial & Industrial Steel Repair
Forklift strikes, truck impacts, loading-dock damage and bent beams and columns inside operating facilities — evaluated by our engineers, repaired by our crews, planned around your operations.

HSE supports commercial warehouses, industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, distribution centers and facility owners with steel repair needs caused by forklift strikes, truck impacts, loading dock damage, equipment collisions, damaged beams, damaged columns and other structural steel concerns. HSE can assist with repair planning, emergency steel repair, heat straightening where applicable, member removal and replacement, rigging support, and coordination with the owner, engineer, contractor and inspection team.
- Forklift strikes, truck impacts and loading-dock damage
- Damaged beams and columns inside operating facilities
- Repair planning through member replacement
- Licensed Professional Engineers on staff
Heat Straightening
Where applicable and approved by the engineer, controlled heating restores a buckled or bent beam or column in place — shorter lead time, less demolition and a faster return to service than cutting the member out.
- The damaged member restored in place
- No replacement steel to fabricate and ship
- Faster return to service for the facility


Repair Planning & Engineering
A licensed PE evaluates the struck member, checks the load path and gives the owner a straighten-or-replace answer — then produces the repair procedure, temporary shoring design and the documentation the owner’s engineer, insurer or inspection team asks for.
- Damage evaluation and repair procedure by in-house PEs
- Temporary shoring designed by our own engineers
- Coordination with the owner, engineer, contractor and inspection team
Member Removal & Replacement
When a member is beyond straightening, HSE shores the structure, cuts out the damaged member, sets the replacement and removes the shoring — rigging inside and around occupied buildings, with fabrication and heavy haul available inside the High family.
- Shoring, removal and replacement under one contract
- Rigging around racking, equipment and dock operations
- Fabrication and heavy haul available within the High family
Emergency Steel Repair
A column struck on the night shift doesn’t wait for a bid cycle. HSE mobilises engineering and a crew for impact-damage calls, makes the structure safe first, then repairs it while the facility keeps running.
- Crews and engineering mobilised for impact-damage calls
- Make-safe shoring, then permanent repair
- Work zone isolated so operations continue
What Comes With the Crew
What a facility owner gets when they call HSE instead of a general contractor.
Heat Straightening
Where applicable and approved, the damaged member is restored in place inside an operating facility.
Licensed Professional Engineers
Damage evaluation, repair planning and shoring design by our own PEs, licensed in ten states.
Emergency Steel Repair
Crews and engineering mobilised for impact-damage calls in warehouses, plants and distribution centers.
Part of the High Family
When a member has to be replaced, fabrication and heavy haul are available inside the High family.
