Question 3

How much do custom metal railings cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the railing design, total linear footage, materials, finish, installation requirements, and project complexity. Our standard railing projects are priced based on the specific scope of work. Small projects may be subject to a minimum project charge. The best way to receive accurate pricing is to contact us with your measurements, project details, and photographs, if available.

We can discuss your design, review your project requirements, arrange on-site measurements, and provide a detailed estimate for your custom metalwork. Reach out today to get started.

Question 5

How long does a project take?

Accepted Answer

Our typical schedule allows approximately three weeks before fabrication begins after we receive the signed estimate and required deposit. Once fabrication begins, allow approximately three to four additional weeks for fabrication, powder coating, and installation. Actual timelines may vary depending on project complexity, supplier availability, powder-coating schedules, weather, and our current workload.

Question 6

Do you offer custom designs?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our metalwork is customized to the dimensions, design preferences, and requirements of each project. We can discuss different railing styles, post configurations, infill options, materials, and finishes to help you achieve the look you want. Final designs and specifications are confirmed through the applicable estimate and project agreement.

Question 7

What materials do you use?

Accepted Answer

We work with metal materials selected according to the project's design, structural requirements, application, and finish. Material options may include square and rectangular steel tubing, round tubing, flat bar, square bar, and steel plate. The appropriate material and dimensions depend on the specific project.

Question 8

Do you offer powder coating?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We offer powder-coated finishes for many of our metal fabrication projects. Powder coating provides a durable, attractive finish and is available in a variety of colors and textures, subject to availability. Black finishes are a popular choice for modern railings and architectural metalwork. Specific colors and finishes can be discussed during the estimating process.

Question 9

Do you fabricate and install the railings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide custom metal fabrication and installation services for projects included in our written estimates. Our process may include taking measurements, preparing project-specific details, fabricating the metalwork, arranging the selected finish, and installing the finished product. The exact scope of services will be outlined in your estimate.

Question 10

Do you work with wood?

Accepted Answer

Our specialty is metal fabrication. We do not provide wood fabrication or carpentry services. For staircase projects requiring wood treads or other wood components, those items must be supplied by the customer or a separate contractor unless expressly included in the written agreement.

Question 11

Do you remove existing railings or staircases?

Accepted Answer

Removal, demolition, and disposal of existing railings, staircases, or other structures are not included unless specifically listed in your estimate. If removal is needed, let us know before the estimate is prepared so we can clarify the scope of work.

Question 12

Do you work with homeowners, builders, and commercial contractors?

Yes. We work with homeowners, builders, general contractors, and commercial clients on a variety of custom metalwork projects. Whether you need a residential railing, a custom staircase, or metalwork for a larger commercial project, we can discuss your specifications and project requirements.

Question 13

Do you require a deposit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A 50% deposit is required to secure scheduling and initiate the project. Accepted payment methods include Venmo, Zelle, check, credit/debit card, digital wallet, and ACH bank transfer through our invoice system, subject to availability. Payment processing fees may apply to certain payment methods; any applicable fees will be disclosed at the time of payment and will comply with applicable laws and payment network rules. Financing is also available through Acorn Finance, subject to approval and the provider's terms. Required financing arrangements must be completed before work begins.

Question 14

Do you provide warranties?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Unless otherwise stated in the written agreement, our standard warranties include:
Metal fabrication: Two years for qualifying fabrication workmanship defects.
Powder coating: One year for qualifying peeling, flaking, or fading defects.
Both warranties begin upon project completion and are subject to the applicable warranty terms and exclusions.

Question 15

Are your railings code compliant?

Accepted Answer

Railing and staircase requirements depend on the project's location, intended use, building type, and applicable building codes. We discuss project specifications and applicable requirements as part of the estimating process. Engineering, permits, inspections, and formal code-compliance services are included only when specifically agreed upon. Customers should confirm applicable requirements with their local building department or qualified design professional before construction.
