We here at Ironwood Connection, take pride in our work and always pay attention to the minor details. We are always going the extra mile to ensure quality on everything we do. Our customers know they can rely on us no matter what the job may be. For prompt and professional work call us today for your next project!

"After 20 years of multiple home remodels in two states, we have never written a negative review for anyone. We decided to make an exception for IronWood. My wife and I selected IronWood for a small staircase railing remodel in our home. Juan Rodriguez responded immediately and came right out. We were sold on his pitch of IronWoodâ s quality, years of expertise, and turnkey service. We approved the quote of $6,850, paid a 50% deposit, and provided a detailed sketch of what we wanted. We asked if they would provide us CAD drawings, a typical process for anything custom-fabricated, and he informed us they only do drawings for new-build homes and not remodels. Fabrication would go off our drawings. Thankfully, I am an industrial designer so that was no issue for me to supply sketches with enough detail to build from. Or so I thought. Quality of finish â Straight unacceptable To be clear, our expectation is not perfection, but we would like something on par with price and of professional standards. IronWood has a â wing itâ , â close enoughâ mindset about fit and finish. Not only was the design we submitted not followed, simple measurements were wrongâ ¦ like consistent spacing of welded spindles. Gaps were so bad they had to break welds, reposition, and cut new holes in our brand NEW wood treads just so they looked more consistent. Then they never filled the holes at the floor from the old spindles which remain the most unattractive part (seen in photos). As well as the tread stain which clearly doesn't match in color or sheen. Communication â Below professional standards Communication between sales guy, office coordinator, and skilled trades were inconsistent and resulted in confusion and wasted time. Juan never returned to our home to inspect the quality issues with his trades. If your project goes as ours did, youâ ll be project managing it by yourself. Transparency â Nonexistent If you have any issues, good luck contacting someone within IronWood to complain. Juan flat out refused to tell us who his manager is or have them call us about the issues we experienced. Responsibility - Lacking After Ironwood attempted a â fixâ (yesâ ¦ these photos were taken after their â fixâ ), we asked another contractor to quote finishing the project to the point of acceptability. The team at Mosian, who has 40 years of award-winning remodeling experience, was shocked by what we were left with. Their quote was $970 to fix all the issues left by IronWood. Today: Pay us, or else! After all the emails, time wasted (project sitting uncomplete at day 45), and nearly a grand still needed to finish, we felt IronWood should deduct the $970 off our balance. Instead, they offered us $500 and threatened credit action if we didnâ t pay the rest. My wife and I know what to look for, and what to expect, as a finished product from home improvement trades, but with IronWood, BUYER BEWARE."

"Nate and Patriot Contracting was the first time I ever used a contractor and got very lucky to find him. We had a stand alone shower that was falling apart every time we used it. Nate came by and within a few min had a estimate in my hand. Nate and his crew turned what seemed to be a disaster in to a tiled shower that my wife is raving about. Thanks Nate for beautiful new shower. We could not be happier with the job. We will be using Patriot Contracting for all of our future repairs and remodeling."

Metal Fabrication and Restoration questions, answered by experts

If you don’t want to rely on paint to change the color of your stainless steel surface, there are a few other methods, but they require specialized equipment and skills. Some examples include powder coating, applying pigmented powder via an electrostatic gun, and electrostatic painting, which uses wet paints and has a less durable finish. The cost of powder coating is $40 to $600 per part, and electrostatic painting averages $60 per hour.

Whether or not it’s cheaper to build a pizza oven depends largely on what style you opt for and which tools and materials you already have. For example, having a surplus of leftover fire bricks from another DIY project will reduce the amount you need to build a new pizza oven and cut costs to boot. On the flip side, if you don’t have any of the required materials, buying a pre-made option will be cheaper and require far less work to set up—between just $300 and $1,000 for the best versions.

Yes, custom designs match existing structural and aesthetic themes.

Welders use a variety of methods in their trade. Different types of welding are better suited for different purposes and contexts. For example, stick welding is a versatile form suitable for most metals and alloys. The most common types of welding include:

  • Stick welding: $100–$1,000

  • Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Gas welding: $150 and up

  • Forge welding: $15–$25 per hour

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.
