Most minor repairs, such as rust removal or repainting, can be completed in a few hours. More extensive repairs, such as welding or section replacement, may take one to two days, especially if custom fabrication or curing time for finishes is required. Always ask your contractor for a timeline before work begins.

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

Welders typically charge about $65 to $150 per hour, often charging a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel as applicable. Even if the job takes less than an hour, you’ll still pay the minimum charge to cover the welder’s transportation costs if they come to you. You may still pay a minimum price if you take your project to the welder, as they still have overhead of a workshop and materials to expense.

In most cases, wrought iron fencing will cause your property value to increase. Most types of fence—but especially high-quality wrought iron fences—make your home more secure and deter burglars, which adds to property value. Fences can also help keep children and pets safe, which most homebuyers will appreciate. Wrought iron fences are also highly decorative, and while they don’t provide much privacy, they do add to your home’s curb appeal, which often leads to higher home value.
