FAQs
What causes a metal fence panel to crack, and can you fix it without replacing the whole fence?
Cracking often happens from thermal expansion and contraction in the valley heat, plus vibration from nearby traffic. Marco's Iron Work can tell if the rim channel or welds have failed. In most cases, we cut out the cracked section, weld in a new matching panel, and grind the joint smooth. This solution restores the fence at a lower cost than a full replacement.
I see rust on my gate hinges and posts. Is that just cosmetic, or does it need immediate metalwork?
Rust isn't just cosmetic—it can weaken the metal where it holds weight, especially at hinge welds. If you notice orange scale or flaking, bring it by our South El Monte shop. We remove the rust with a grinder, weld in reinforcement if needed, and apply a rust-inhibiting primer and paint. This prevents sudden gate sag or failure.
How do you ensure a custom fabricated gate matches my existing 20-year-old fence in our neighborhood?
We take precise measurements and compare the existing picket spacing, rail height, and scrollwork details. Using steel or iron stock, we replicate the pattern exactly. For matching finishes, we can match the paint color or apply a patina that blends with aged metal. This is a common request around the El Monte and South El Monte areas, and we treat every job as a custom fit.
