Q&A
How do you protect metal fences from Missoula’s snowy winters and moisture damage?
Missoula’s heavy snowfall and spring thaw can cause rust and corrosion on metal fences. We weatherproof every gate and fence using industrial-grade sealants and rust inhibitors. For new installations, we select materials rated for freeze-thaw cycles and ensure proper drainage away from posts. On repair jobs, we strip existing rust, treat the metal, and reapply a durable finish. It’s a proactive approach that extends the life of your fence through many Montana winters.
Do you take small repair jobs like a broken gate hinge or a loose railing?
Absolutely. We intentionally keep our schedule open for small repair jobs in the Missoula area. Whether it’s a sagging gate, a bent section of railing, or a broken latch, we can usually come by same-week. We’ve been fixing things for over 20 years and we genuinely enjoy helping homeowners maintain their property.
What’s the process for getting a custom deck railing or staircase fabricated?
It starts with a call. We’ll come out to your Missoula home, take measurements, and discuss your style—modern, rustic, or anything in between. Then we fabricate the pieces in our shop and install them on-site. We handle everything from steel and aluminum railings to ornamental iron. Most residential projects take a few days from design to completion, depending on complexity.
