What clients expect and what professionals need to know
Metalwork fabrication uses MIG, TIG, and stick welding, plasma cutting, angle grinders, and press brakes to fabricate custom structural steel, ornamental iron, aluminum railings, gates, and decorative elements. TIG welding produces clean, precise beads for stainless steel and aluminum visible welds; MIG is faster for structural carbon steel; stick welding works on dirty or rusty metal in outdoor settings. Surface finishing uses grinding, sandblasting, and powder coating or paint for corrosion protection.

Common questions from clients looking for Metalwork services
MIG (wire feed) is fast and easy for steel fabrication; TIG uses a tungsten electrode for precision welds on stainless and aluminum; stick (SMAW) works in dirty/windy outdoor conditions where wire feed isn't practical.
Powder coating applies electrostatically charged dry powder baked at 400°F to form a durable, chip-resistant finish far thicker and more uniform than liquid paint — standard for outdoor metal fabrication.
Yes — using 309 or 312 stainless filler rod bridges the metallurgical difference. The dissimilar joint is weaker than a same-metal joint and requires proper heat management to prevent carbon migration.
Residential walk gates: 1/8-inch (11 gauge) tube or angle; vehicle gates: 3/16-inch tube with heavier hinges and frame. Over-engineering gates prevents sagging and hinge failure.
Remove all spatter by chipping and grinding before painting; apply a rust-inhibitive primer (zinc-rich or red oxide) before topcoat; powder coat is the most durable option for outdoor metal.
