Colonial Iron Works is a Worcester metal shop that Houzz says has provided custom metal fabrication since 1947, including railings, gates and window guards. A 2026 Google reviewer wrote that the shop fabricated iron posts and railings, helped with the design and charged a reasonable price. A 2024 customer said Sal gave helpful advice when they ordered three new stair rails, and that the railings were installed three weeks later by Mike and team from A G Welders. In a 2024 review, a customer said they welded another rod onto a fence-gate latch within 2 hours and painted it all for $20. A 2021 customer had a different result with a custom step hand rail: they said the bottom of the rail was not straight and the paint and metal finish were poor. That 2021 customer said Tony offered a $50 discount to forget about it, and the railing was taken back without being fixed.
Fabricated iron posts and railings. They helped me with the design. Beautiful work, prompt service and reasonably priced.
Thanks to Sal and his team, we had a great experience with Colonial Iron works and A G welding! We are very pleased with the 3 new stair rails we now have on our front and back porches and in our garage entrance to our home! Sal was great giving helpful advice when we ordered the railings and the price he quoted was very affordable! The railings were installed 3 weeks later by Mike and team from A G Welders…. They were very efficient and had the job done quickly ! Everyone we spoke to… Sal, Mike and the team were very friendly and helpful as well! Thank you all for a job well done! We definitely will recommend your company to family and friends!
I had to get the rod of the latch for my fence gate extended because we had to move one of the posts to allow larger lawnmower to be able to come in. I called Colonial Iron Works based on their reviews, Sal picked up, he was very nice to talk to. Asked me to send him an image, I did, he told me to bring the existing latch in. Within 2 hours, they welded another rod to it, painted it all for $20. I cannot recommend them high enough. I am one very happy customer. Thank you Sal.
Horrible experience!! At first, all was well. I asked for a custom step hand rail. He came to my home, took measurements, agree on price and design. Took them only a week to built it. Came to install, did so but I noticed the bottom of the rail was not straight, and the end piece would point upward. Aside from that, the paint was horrible as well as the metal finish. Where the end of the rail pointed up, two of the blusters were shorter than the rest. Spoke to Tony, he wanted to give me a $50 discount to forget about it but I declined. I just wanted the job well done. I asked how long it would take to get it fix, he angrily replied, "it would take a month". He said all kinds of things to try getting me to keep the hand rail, but he ended up taking it back. After 3 weeks of not hearing from Tony, I called, spoke with him. He said I could come pick the railing up, he said, he would not install it. He said I could take it, or go find someone else, and start all over. This is just my experience, yours could be satisfactory, but I would use caution.
