A G Welding is a custom metal-fabrication and railing shop on Lewis Street in Worcester, run by a father-and-son team. A Houzz filing under the related name Colonial Iron Works confirms the two are one operation — 'AG Welding and Colonial Iron Works are your partners in iron fabrication' — tracing back to 1947 and describing itself as serving Worcester County with custom metal work for over 50 years. Reviews across 2022 through 2024 describe a shop that delivers on both craft and reliability. In an April 2024 review, a customer who collected six competing quotes for front-step railings chose AG anyway, citing quality, a one-week turnaround, and an install that took about 45 minutes in the rain — the same review noted that several competing vendors either use AG to fabricate their own iron and steel railings or recommend AG directly. A December 2024 review described custom stair railings co-designed with the shop's father-and-son team, and a March 2022 review said the final price matched the initial quote with installation completed exactly on schedule. Smaller jobs get the same attention: a 2023 review described a same-week, $40 fix welding the arms off a desk chair. A recent April 2026 review raised a different kind of complaint — a nearby resident described loud music from employees' cars in the early morning as inconsiderate and unprofessional, unrelated to the quality of any actual job. Houzz also lists the shop for fence and gate installation alongside its core railing and fabrication work.
“AG Welding 20 Lewis Street in Worcester.”
Employee are inconsiderate of the residents around this business. Loud music at 7am 8 am and around 3 pm when they leave. 3pm is understanding but dude 7am blasting their car stereos to think their cool is the last thing the residents of the street appreciate. Business wise idk how they operate but as a community member of the street they live on their annoying and vulgar and unprofessional.
Good people.
These guys are amazing — classic service with excellent craftsmanship. The father and son who run this place were super thoughtful when working with us on custom railing for our external stairs. They were able to work with us to co-create exactly what we were looking for.
They made roof racks for my truck about a year ago and they are still in great shape! Very sturdy and durable
These guys are very high quality and reasonably priced. I received 6 quotes for front step railings and what AG lacked in a polished sales process, they made up for in quality, scheduling (1 week!), and speed of install (~45 mins in the rain). Several of the vendors we received quotes from actually use AG to make their iron/steel railings, and several that don’t do iron/steel recommended AG. Tony, Sal, Mike, and the rest of the crew - thank you from 19 Assabet!
