SurgiTech FabWorks

What SurgiTech FabWorks does

SurgiTech FabWorks (legal entity SURGITECH INC) is a Houston, Texas-based metal fabrication and welding shop operating from a single facility at 13225 FM 529 Rd Suite E in Northwest Houston. Founded as a fabrication division of SURGITECH INC — itself established in 1989 by Glenn McColpin — the FabWorks business emerged from the parent company's internal fabrication needs and was formalized around 2018 to serve external customers. The shop employs 1-10 people and operates with state-of-the-art tooling including Lincoln welding machines, CNC machining, water jetting, plasma/flame cutting (up to 3/4 inch steel), band saw cutting (up to 17 inch diameter pipe), sheetmetal fabrication, piping, sand blasting, painting, rolling and bending.

The company's core offering spans skid fabrication (small pump skids to 20,000 lb field skids with integrated wiring, automation controls, and accessories), welding services across TIG, MIG, FCAW, SMAW, and Laser Beam Welding techniques, and full-service metal cutting and fabrication. A differentiator is expertise in exotic alloy welding (Hastalloy, Super Duplex, Inconel, Carbon Steel, Stainless, Aluminum), alongside a Rapid R&D Prototyping service that converts minimal drawings into working prototypes for early-stage product validation. Customer segments are horizontal: oil & gas (refinery turnarounds, pump skids, oilfield skids), R&D/prototyping (clean energy reactors, drilling fluid flow loops, hydrocavitation systems), and industrial/commercial (boat/trailer/gate repair, fencing, machine guarding).

The business model is project-based custom quoting — pricing is determined per project by scope, materials, complexity, and volume, with no publicly listed rates. GTM is direct B2B sales via phone (346-309-9964), email, contact form, and walk-in visits; there is no e-commerce or marketplace presence. Marketing is minimal, relying on project referrals, customer testimonials, and proximity to the Houston Energy Corridor supplier network. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held with no institutional investment, no patents or trademarks filed, no known partnerships, and no regulatory actions.
