"Yolex Richardson did a very good job removing my running board on my pickup truck. The brackets on the running board were welded to the frame of the truck. He cut the metal off between the frame and running board so the running board could be removed. It was an eyesore with rust and my truck is almost mint condition. So happy to see it off and as I said he did a great job removing it. Also Yolex is a very nice guy with great personality and we got along very well. Highly recommend him for other jobs and I will surely recommend him if others have problems."

"After having to postpone my original installation appointment time (due to a delay caused by a previous job and impending nightfall), I was unsure of what level of professionalism to expect of Iron Kingdom; however, the next day, the workers that arrived to install my security bars allayed me of those concerns. They were punctual, professional, and worked in the rain to get the job done. They were thorough and were able to answer all questions and concerns I had regarding the work. Not only was I happy with the job they did on my windows, I was also very pleased with their repair of my security door. I am very pleased with the results."

Wrought Iron questions, answered by experts

A high-quality wrought iron fence is one of the most durable options available and can last a lifetime, or even centuries, with proper care. However, wrought iron is susceptible to rust and corrosion if not maintained.

To maximize its lifespan, regular maintenance is required. This includes:

  • Cleaning the fence with soapy water every six months.

  • Scrubbing away any rust or corrosion as soon as it appears.

  • Applying a new coat of paint or refinishing the fence every few years to protect the metal from moisture and oxygen. The recommended frequency varies, with sources suggesting anywhere from every 1 to 10 years.

If significant rust develops, it's wise to hire a professional fence repair company to clean the rust and reseal the fence. The cost to refinish a fence is typically between $5 and $12 per square foot, a worthwhile investment to ensure its longevity.

Proper installation can make a big difference in your fence's maintenance needs. For example, wood fences that aren't installed correctly can be more likely to rot. While it's possible to DIY a fence installation, hiring a local fence company can mean much less work for you in the long run. 

A professional fence installer will make sure your fence is positioned correctly and installed in a way that ensures longevity and limited upkeep requirements.

You don't need gravel under metal fence posts, but it's always a good idea to add it in. Adding about six inches of gravel before you pour concrete will provide better water drainage, which can help to prolong the lifespan of your new fence and maximize its stability.

You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing. 

Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.

Your dog might be able to slip underneath chewable, flexible fabric gate covers. When you have a wayward woofer, using wooden panels that come within an inch or two of the ground is the most secure option. You may need a metal defense barrier dug into the soil to keep your dog from digging under your fence or gate.
