RECENT PROJECTS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
  • What does architectural metal fabrication include?

    It covers metal pieces designed for a specific building or landscape, such as gates, railings, fences, balconies, screens, and decorative accents. Each piece is measured, cut, welded, and finished to fit one property rather than pulled from a warehouse shelf.

  • Is modern wrought iron actually made from wrought iron?

    Usually not. True wrought iron is no longer produced commercially in the United States, so most pieces sold as wrought iron today are mild steel worked into traditional patterns, which is stronger, more consistent, and easier to weld.

  • How does Houston's humidity affect outdoor materials?

    Moist Gulf air speeds up rust on bare steel and keeps wood damp long enough for mildew, swelling, and rot. Galvanized or sealed metal, rot-resistant lumber, and details that shed water instead of trapping it help outdoor projects last much longer.

  • What is the difference between powder coating and painting metal?

    Powder coating applies a dry powder electrostatically and bakes it into a hard, even shell that resists chipping. Liquid paint is easier to touch up on site but usually needs recoating sooner, especially on gates and railings handled every day.
