Metal fabrication FAQ

How long does custom metal fabrication take?

Jeff and Simon Ironworks in Burnaby says a typical home project takes 6 to 10 weeks from consultation to installation. Ask Richmond shops for their own dates.

Do I need a finished drawing?

Send what you have: a drawing, sample or sketch with sizes. Ask whether design work is needed and who pays for it.

What should the quote include?

Ask for material, cutting, bending, welding, finish, delivery and installation to be listed. Confirm who checks the final dimensions.

Good to know
