Well I guess my destiny to be a decorative/Structural Ironworker started right out of High School when I happened to be searching for a job and ended up working for an ornamental Iron shop back in 1981 which shall remain nameless because it is to date one of my Competitors and a good friend. I worked there for about 3 1/2 years learning all aspects of decorative Iron railing fabrication and installation techniques and ended up getting laid off in 1984. I then ended up working for a large structural steel fabrication shop called Nationwide Steel , the shop was quite organized it had 3 overhead cranes a beamline & many other large iron working tools , It was here where I honed my welding skills & achieved certification for vertical up (3G) welding & learned all the facets of fabricating & erecting steel buildings and in 1986 I purchased a flatbed truck & portable welder & started to rent out my truck and welding equipment to nationwide steel on a weekly basis, not long after this the company decided to close it doors to concentrate on its roofing business, so with that I decided to go it alone and formally started my own Business in April of 1987 Named Ironworks, I started subcontracting installations and field work from other railing & structural shops who got the word I was available at a reasonable rate I even did a lot of work for the Ironworks where I started my career. From that point I ended up getting a small shop (1500 sq feet) to work out of with a friend who was also starting a similar business under a different name , we shared tools & each had a small desk with separate phone line each answering the phone by our respective names. We shared the shop for 2 or 2-1/2 years until he ended up moving out & I took over the whole shop by myself. I was there for another year or so when I finally outgrew the place & had to move to a new 3000 sq foot shop at that point I had a great reputation & got lots of work on referral. Finally we moved to our present location in which we have about 3500 sq feet with an overhead crane and yard space, Still a relatively small operation you will be dealing directly with me the owner
