Custom Metal Fabrication & Ironwork In Washington, DC

Repair & Iron Welding

Repair and iron welding for bent fences, sagging gates, loose railings and worn stairs that brings back strength and good looks, letting you keep the metalwork you already have.

Bring Tired Ironwork Back Into Service

A gate that drags on the driveway, a fence section bent by a car, a railing that wobbles at the base or a stair with a cracked weld are common sights on older properties. Rust slowly eats at joints and posts, and once a weld lets go, the damage tends to spread to the pieces around it. Many people assume the only fix is tearing everything out and starting over, which can be costly and wasteful when the ironwork is still mostly sound. Repair and iron welding restore strength to the damaged parts so you can keep the fence, gate, railing or stairs you already have.

Welding over rust or old paint without cleaning the metal first usually produces a weak joint that cracks again within a season. Bent sections need to be straightened or replaced with matching stock, or the repair will stand out and throw the rest of the line out of alignment. At DC Iron & Metal Works, a repair starts with finding where the metal has actually failed, then cutting out what cannot be saved and welding in new material so the repaired area carries its share of the load. Matching the original pattern and profile matters too, because a repair should blend in with the existing ironwork instead of looking like a patch.

Weekday hours that start at 6:00 AM, plus Saturday mornings, make it easier to get a repair on the schedule before a broken gate or loose railing turns into a bigger problem. We fix the same kinds of pieces we build every day, so we know how fences, gates, handrails and stairs are put together and where they tend to fail. Some repairs involve a single cracked joint, while others mean replacing several pickets or a full post, and we can handle either. Keeping good ironwork in service saves you the cost of new work and keeps the property looking cared for.
