ABOUT
Zach Burick, President, spent nearly a decade working for Duggins Welding before acquiring the company in late October, 2021. Zach started in the field as a general laborer while still in school at UNC Charlotte and worked his way to estimating, project management, and now owner. Zach's goal is to honor the foundation laid by Derek Duggins, who started the company in 1986, continue to grow t

he company, and build his own legacy. Duggins Welding is proud to have completed more than 30 years in business. We are family owned and operated, AISC CSE (Certified Steel Erector) and we concentrate on projects located throughout North Carolina.

​

We specialize in the installation of structural steel for multi-story buildings, manufacturing centers, schools, churches, and commercial/office projects. We take great pride in our hands-on service, attention to detail, and timely completion of all projects.

​

One of the greatest strengths of Duggins Welding is our versatility in projects large and small. Take a look at our specialty fabrication section for an example of our creativity.

When one trade falls behind, the pressure doesn’t stop there. It can quickly start squeezing the steel schedule and everything that follows.

That’s where experience and coordination matter. Duggins adapts sequencing, works closely with the GC, and keeps productive work moving wherever possible.

The goal: absorb the disruption without letting it control the entire er****on schedule.

That’s The Bold Standard.

Good intentions don’t keep a project on schedule. Consistent ex*****on does.

It’s showing up prepared, communicating early, solving problems quickly, and delivering day after day that keeps the work moving forward.

At Duggins, protecting the schedule is part of protecting the project.

That’s The Bold Standard.

Complex projects don’t need guesswork. They need experience.

Complexity is where we do our best work. That’s The Bold Standard.

The product isn’t just steel. It’s certainty.

Certainty that the team shows up prepared, problems are handled before they become setbacks, communication stays clear, and the work keeps moving when the project gets complex.

That’s what Duggins brings to every job: ownership, preparation, and ex*****on you can count on.

That’s The Bold Standard.

Project Delivered: Academy Sports — Knightdale, NC

From planning the lift to setting the final steel, every move matters.

The Academy Sports project is another example of what disciplined field ex*****on looks like—experienced crews, precise coordination, and a commitment to getting the job done right.

Built with preparation. Delivered with confidence.

The Bold Standard.

Strong projects are built by strong communication in the field

It’s the conversations before the lift, the coordination before the next move, and the leadership that keeps everyone aligned when conditions change

At Duggins, we believe ex*****on starts with people who communicate, take ownership, and keep the job moving forward

That’s The Bold Standard

One trade falling behind can put pressure on the entire project

Poor handoffs, sequencing conflicts, and late communication don’t stay isolated. They create a ripple effect that impacts steel, downstream trades, and ultimately the master schedule

At Duggins, The Bold Standard means coordinating early, communicating clearly, and staying ahead of conflicts so the work after ours can keep moving

Because great ex*****on doesn’t just protect our scope. It protects the project

Project Delivered: Burlington School Addition

Every project will face its share of unexpected conditions. The difference is having a team prepared to respond

When challenges surface, experience, communication, and accountability keep small problems from becoming major setbacks. At D.S. Duggins Welding, we stay focused on solutions and keep the work moving forward

Because strong ex*****on isn’t about avoiding every challenge. It’s about knowing how to overcome them

When there’s almost no room for error, preparation becomes everything

Critical lifts demand more than skill in the moment. They require experienced planning, disciplined field ex*****on, and a crew that understands the risks before the lift begins

That’s how high-risk moments become controlled operations and how Duggins keeps complex work moving with confidence
