MA Structural steel contractors
Commercial · Industrial · Residential. Beams, columns, mezzanines and load-bearing steel — fabricated and installed by licensed, insured Massachusetts shops. Send your plans, get a free estimate.
01 — How it works
Sourcing a structural steel contractor usually means calling five shops and waiting a week for callbacks. We flipped it: send your plans once, and the right fabricators come to you.
Drawings, a sketch or just a description of the span and load. Architect's plans speed things up but aren't required.
We route it to vetted MA fabricators who actually do load-bearing steel — free estimates come back to you, typically within a day.
Pick your shop, lock the date and coordinate with your GC. Fabrication starts while the site gets prepped.
Steel delivered, set and welded to spec — inspected and signed off, ready for the next trade.
02 — What we connect you with
Load-bearing work is its own trade. We route structural requests to shops that fabricate and erect real steel, and decorative work to the shops that specialize in it.
Beams, columns, lintels and load-bearing fabrication for renovations, additions and new builds.
Interior stair rails, exterior porch and deck railings, balcony guardrails — code-compliant and built to fit.
Spiral, straight-run and floating steel staircases — statement pieces engineered for the long haul.
Swing and sliding driveway gates, garden gates and matching hardware — manual or automated.
Ornamental and security fencing for homes and commercial properties — powder-coated to weather New England.
Mobile and shop welding, restoration of antique iron, and one-off decorative and ornamental commissions.
Not sure of the category? Just describe it — we'll figure out who's right for the job.

"Incredible experience from design to installation in under two weeks. Filipe showed exceptional expertise developing the best solution based on my design goals and code requirements."
"J.R. Ironworks did a fantastic job on our home in Stoneham. They got back to us quickly and delivered high-quality work in a very reasonable timeframe. We love the look of the cable railings!"

Good to know
Yes. Getting matched and receiving quotes costs you nothing and comes with no obligation. Our partner shops pay to be part of the network — you don't.
No — we're the matchmaker. The actual structural steel, railings, gates and staircases are designed and built by independent, vetted ironworkers and metal shops here in Massachusetts. We connect you to the right one.
Yes — structural steel is our primary focus. Beams, columns, lintels, load-bearing wall removal, commercial and industrial framing and mezzanines all get routed to shops that fabricate and erect load-bearing steel, which is a different skill set from decorative work.
Most people get their first quote within about 24 hours. Complex or structural jobs can take a little longer, since the shop may want to see photos, plans or visit the site.
All of Massachusetts, with the densest coverage around Greater Boston, the Merrimack Valley, MetroWest and Central Mass. We have dedicated pages for 52 cities and towns across the state.
That's fine — pick "Not sure yet" and describe it in your own words. Part of what a good ironworker does is help you figure out the right solution.
Only the ironworkers we match to your project, so they can prepare a quote. We don't sell your details or blast them across the internet.
