"UNPROFESSIONAL, TOOK OUR MONEY AND OUR FENCE ! We hired Robert Gomez owner of G&F wrought iron 18 months ago before Covid 19. Without a doubt the most UNPROFESSIONAL contractor we have ever hired with deep regret and empty pockets. Refuses to help the customers. Argumentative, dishonest, can't keep appointments or return phone calls. We understand we are not alone. This is simply unacceptable business practices. Too many other honest contractors available that respect you and your hard earned money. He robs Peter to pay Paul. All we can say is by our experience with Robert Gomez Jr. over 18 months of agony trying to get what was agreed on our contact is going to involve CSLB and an attorney. Run from this guy and his crew !"

Welding questions, answered by experts

Lally columns are named after their founder, John Lally, who owned a construction company in the 1800s. He invented the columns as a means of providing temporary support for beams and rafters in homes his company was renovating. The original Lally columns were also made of steel, although the inventory used a thicker gauge metal, which provided additional support for larger projects and long-term structural solutions.

Most projects take 1-4 weeks, depending on material sourcing, design intricacy, and required finishing treatments like powder coating or galvanization.

A steel beam is stronger than a wood beam and requires fewer vertical supports underneath, which means it’s a better option for larger structures or if you want an open space under your home that doesn’t have posts as obstructions. However, steel I-beams cost more than wood ones, and they can be difficult to install retroactively, as getting them into the basement area can be challenging, if not impossible.

Beams made out of traditional lumber can often only span 8 to 12 feet without requiring vertical supports, so if you want a wider opening to create a more open floor plan, you might need an LVL beam. LVL beams can span up to around 30 feet without the need for load-bearing walls or vertical supports underneath, making them a better option for keeping your home as open and airy as possible.

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)
