What We Do

Built by Hand. Built to Last.

From structural steel that holds up buildings to art sculptures that stop people in their tracks. Every weld tells a story.

Custom Metal Fabrication

Every project starts with a conversation. Bring us your blueprints, your napkin sketch, or just your idea — we’ll engineer it, fabricate it, and deliver it ready to install. From simple brackets to complex architectural features, if it’s metal, we build it.

Structural Welding

AWS D1.1 certified. Our structural welds meet or exceed code requirements for commercial and residential construction. We work with architects, engineers, and GCs on projects ranging from single-beam installations to full structural steel packages.

Ornamental Ironwork

Hand-forged decorative metalwork that transforms spaces. Scrollwork, rosettes, leaves, twists — traditional techniques combined with modern design sensibility. Every piece is unique.

Railings & Gates

Interior and exterior railings, driveway gates, garden gates, and pool fencing. From sleek modern cable rail to ornate traditional designs. Measured, fabricated, and installed by our crew.

Featured Work

Two Sides of the Torch

Every project gets the same precision and care, whether it's a 60-foot bridge or a 6-inch sculpture.

The Art
sculpture

Reclaimed mill steel, plasma-cut & TIG welded

A 7-foot tall phoenix sculpture made from reclaimed steel mill scrap. Each feather was individually hand-cut and welded, creating a piece that rises from Pittsburgh’s industrial past into something new and alive.

Rebirth

South Side Works, Pittsburgh

wall-art

Mirror-polished 304 stainless steel

A flowing wall installation of polished stainless steel ribbons that catch and reflect light throughout the day. The piece transforms with the changing light, never looking the same twice.

Corten weathering steel

A custom fire pit shaped like a coiled serpent, with flames emerging from its open mouth. Built from Corten steel with a natural rust patina that deepens with age and weather.

What They Say About Our Work

We’ve used Dom for structural steel on over 30 projects. His welds are textbook — every inspector signs off without a second look. When we needed custom stair railings for a high-end loft conversion, he delivered something that belonged in a magazine. There’s nobody else in Pittsburgh I’d call.

Morrison Construction
Dom built a custom driveway gate and matching garden railings for our 1920s home. He studied the original ironwork and created pieces that look like they’ve been there for a hundred years. The attention to detail is extraordinary — every scroll, every joint is perfect.

Sarah Chen
Homeowner, Shadyside
Dom fabricated our entire brewhouse — fermentation tanks, custom tap tower, bar top with a live-edge wood and steel design. He understood exactly what we wanted. Six months in and the stainless work still looks brand new.
