General Questions
Common inquiries about our services, processes, and capabilities. Contact us directly for project-specific questions.
We fabricate and install custom ironwork for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Our capabilities include ornamental railings, structural steel components, decorative gates, security features, mezzanine platforms, and architectural metalwork. Projects range from single residential railings to large-scale commercial installations.
Timeline depends on project complexity and scope. Simple residential railings typically complete within 2-3 weeks from design approval to installation. Larger commercial projects require 4-8 weeks. We provide detailed timelines during initial consultations and maintain efficient scheduling to meet your deadlines.
Yes. Our team offers complete design support, from initial concept development to detailed fabrication drawings. We work with your specifications, architectural plans, or collaborate to create custom solutions that meet both aesthetic preferences and structural requirements.
We’re based in Brampton, Ontario, and serve the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding regions. For larger commercial or industrial projects, we coordinate delivery and installation across Ontario. Contact us to confirm service availability for your location.
Yes. We maintain full liability insurance and WSIB coverage. Our team includes certified welders and installers. We’re members of the Ontario Erectors Association Inc. and comply with all provincial building codes and safety regulations.
Absolutely. We specialize in restoration projects and period-appropriate fabrication. Bring photos, samples, or measurements, and we’ll replicate details to match existing work while ensuring modern structural integrity and code compliance.
Pricing & Quotes
Transparent information about our pricing structure and quotation process.
Pricing varies based on design complexity, materials, dimensions, and installation requirements. Residential railings typically start at competitive rates for standard designs, with custom ornamental work priced according to detail level. We provide detailed written quotes after reviewing your specifications.
Yes. We provide complimentary project assessments and written quotes. For accurate estimates, we need project dimensions, design preferences, photos of the installation location, and any architectural drawings or specifications. Contact us to schedule a consultation.
Standard terms require a deposit upon contract signing, with progress payments tied to fabrication milestones and final payment upon project completion. Specific payment schedules are outlined in project contracts. We accept cheques, e-transfers, and credit cards.
Our quotes include design, fabrication, finishing, delivery, and installation. Additional costs may apply for structural engineering reports (if required by building permits), site preparation by others, or significant changes to approved designs. We clarify all potential costs upfront.
Process & Installation
What to expect during fabrication and installation phases.
We need project location and dimensions, photos of the installation area, design preferences or reference images, any architectural drawings or building plans, and information about material preferences and finish colours. Building permit requirements, if applicable, should also be discussed.
Permit requirements vary by municipality and project type. Structural modifications, exterior railings, and commercial installations typically require permits. We advise on requirements and can provide necessary engineering documentation. You’re responsible for obtaining permits, though we assist with technical submissions.
Installation areas should be accessible and clear of obstacles. For exterior work, we coordinate around weather conditions. We confirm site-specific requirements during pre-installation consultations, including access points for equipment, electrical connections for welding, and any building protection needs.
We take extensive precautions to protect your property. Installation may require minor drilling or concrete anchoring, which we execute with precision to minimize impact. We clean work areas thoroughly upon completion and repair any inadvertent damage at no additional cost.
Yes. We operate year-round and conduct installations during winter months. Certain finishing processes like powder coating occur in our climate-controlled facility. Extreme weather may occasionally delay outdoor installation, but we schedule efficiently to minimize weather-related impacts.
Materials & Finishes
Information about the materials we use and finishing options available.
We fabricate with mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and wrought iron. Material selection depends on application, environment, budget, and aesthetic requirements. We recommend appropriate materials during design consultations based on your project’s specific needs.
We offer powder coating in custom colours, hot-dip galvanizing for maximum corrosion resistance, primed surfaces ready for field painting, clear coat finishes for raw steel aesthetics, and specialty finishes like bronze or copper tones. Powder coating provides the most durable, low-maintenance finish for most applications.
Powder-coated ironwork requires minimal maintenance—periodic cleaning with mild soap and water. Inspect annually for chips or scratches and touch up promptly to prevent corrosion. Stainless steel needs occasional cleaning to maintain appearance. We provide specific maintenance guidelines upon project completion.
Yes. We warrant our fabrication and installation workmanship. Warranty terms are specified in project contracts and vary based on materials and application. Powder coating carries manufacturer warranties for finish durability. We address any workmanship issues promptly at no charge.
