“We used Ornamental Iron of Houston to replace our old deteriorating wooden porch railing with a beautiful wrought iron railing. The process from beginning to end was outstanding and seamless. Sebastian, or sales consultant/project manager was great. We handle the quote over the phone. He was incredibly responsive. Even managed to schedule the project ahead of the planned schedule. The installation went on without a hitch. The owner, Joe, was onsite to insure the installation was perfect. I can not say enough about the professionalism and friendliness of the entire team and the quality of the product. The new railing adds a touch of elegance to our simple middle class home.”

The owners will work with their customer to design to the customer’s specifications. The install is done in a meticulous manner. Communication is also done continuously letting the customer know exactly where in the process their masterpiece is. Ornamental Iron of Houston also installed a new LiftMaster gate opener and keypad on our driveway gate. Previous owner’s installed an inferior product. The owners of the company will help with all questions about the operation of the opener. Words cannot describe this company’s aim to please its customers.”

“Ornamental Iron of Houston did 2 custom gates for our garden courtyard. They came out beautifully. Professional team, met commitments. Based on our experience, we’ve ordered some iron awnings. We know they’ll be great.”

“We recently had custom handrails fabricated and installed at both our front door and rear door entrances. Both handrails were designed to accommodate steps. The installers took great care in designing the handrails per our specs. They fabricated metal templates and did a trial install to ensure proper fit before fabrication of the final design. The installer (Joe) was very skilled in metal work and took great care during the final installation to ensure a perfect fit. He was also extremely careful to avoid damage to the concrete and tile surfaces. We are very satisfied with the work done by Ornamental Iron of Houston and would recommend them to anyone seeking a custom-built handrail(s).”

“Ornamental iron did Perfect engineered handrails for both our front and back porches. I have never seen a company who is responsive and keeps you up-to-date as much as ornamental iron did. Sebastian, Joe and their other workers don’t just come out once to measure and detail what we wanted. They measure once then they create their template and then they come out at the final stage to install. No matter what they do they try to make it perfect. They are solution based. And because they do this kind of work, they will communicate In the various stages. Do not expect them to be on too tight deadline. You want your work to be perfect and that’s what they do. Our new handrails are extremely steady and Secure. We will not have to worry about falling down the stairs with these rails.”
