4 months agoDangerous, unsafe drivers. I question their commitment to safety and their intelligence. Shocking to see so many other recent reviews point out their dangerous driving. It seems like a matter of time before they cause an accident. -

4 months agoTerrible company hires terrible drivers. One ran me off the road on Emerson so they could turn from the middle lane into Speedway. -
John Gill
1 year agoWe live a few blocks away and wanted a single piece commissioned. They simple said we don't do it. I get that and can respect it, but it means I have had a 1 star experience with a local neighborhood company. I'd rather they close and a place that would support locals with a diversified portfolio move in. I don't need a commercial fence store around the corner. They said they don't even offer their products to non commercial locations. The photo is from their parking lot and explains a lot! -
Jonathan Simpson
3 years agoSaw a video of their employee stealing woman's wallet the day before Thanksgiving. President of the company helped lie to protect the thief, very good insight as to the kind of company that it is. If they'd steal from a stranger, how well do you think they know you? -

FAQ
How does Capitol City Iron Works determine pricing for custom ornamental fences and railings?
We determine pricing based on the project's scope, including materials like galvanized steel, custom design complexity, and size for fences, railings, stairways, or gates. Custom quotes are provided after reviewing project details with clients or their contractors. Homeowners can request an estimate by calling 317-263-5080 to discuss specifics.
Are you licensed and insured for handyman and fencing work?
Capitol City Iron Works carries the necessary licensing and insurance required for our ironwork fabrication and installation projects across Indiana and the Midwest. We work with residential and commercial clients, coordinating with contractors and architects on permitted jobs. Verify our credentials directly when requesting an estimate to ensure compliance for your project.
Does Capitol City Iron Works handle residential projects like custom fences or railings?
We specialize in custom ornamental iron fences, railings, stairways, and gates for both residential and commercial properties throughout Indiana. Our fabrication uses galvanized steel with powder coating for durability on home installations. Contact us to confirm if your specific residential design fits our custom capabilities.
What is your typical timeline and arrival window for scheduling installations?
We schedule projects based on fabrication time, which varies with custom designs for fences, gates, or railings, followed by installation coordinated with your contractor. Expect clear arrival windows communicated in advance, typically during business hours for on-site work. Larger jobs may span several weeks from estimate to completion.
How does Capitol City Iron Works handle cleanup and debris after installing fences or gates?
We remove all fabrication and installation debris from your property, leaving the site clean and ready for use. Our process includes hauling away scrap metal and materials used in welding and powder coating. Homeowners appreciate the tidy finish, especially on residential projects.
Why is hiring you for ornamental ironwork safer and better than attempting a DIY project?
Our trained craftsmen use all-welded construction with CAD designs and advanced powder coating, ensuring structural integrity that DIY tools and skills often lack. Professional fabrication prevents common issues like weak joints or rust from improper galvanizing. This approach delivers a durable result proud to display, avoiding safety risks from amateur welding or installation.
