About Us

In 1974, my Grandpa Wallace Bertram, and Uncle Dick Myers purchased a welding company in Union City, Indiana and changed the name to B&M Steel. Their first opportunity was a customer across the street at Union City Mold. In the years to follow, the business grew from a local provider of various steel fabrication to a national service provider. In 1985, ownership of the company was passed onto my dad, Steve Rader and in 2016 to me. I take pride in being the third-generation owner in B&M Steel and strive to treat our clients like family.

The B&M Steel team has a combined experience of 100+ years. I am an NCCCO Certified Crane Operator. All full-time shop employees have completed the OSHA 30-hour course and the ANSI/AWS D1.1 certification.

TIG, Office Cat

Tig showed up at B&M near the end of 2017, pleading from outside to allow him to come in and prove himself as a valuable addition. His main tasks are to greet vendors and customers daily, check the Cintas rugs for quality, and be a live paperweight (sometimes even when not needed). Luckily for us, his income is room and board. If not for the deal on his salary B&M may not be able to afford him. His work ethic is uncanny as he can be found at the shop 24/7.
