Iron Gate, Railing & Fence Repair in Greater Boston
Iron gates, railings, and fences give older Boston properties their character — until they rust, loosen, or drop. Repairing ironwork keeps that character while making it safe and working again.
VB Construction repairs iron gates, railings, and fences across Greater Boston. We re-secure loose railings and posts, repair rusted and damaged sections, and get dropped or sticking gates swinging and latching true again. A loose stair railing is a safety issue, and a sagging gate is a daily annoyance — both are usually very repairable.
On older homes, the goal is to preserve the original ironwork rather than replace it. We restore what is there where it makes sense, and fabricate or replace sections only where the metal is too far gone, keeping the look consistent with the property.
Ironwork repair is part of the rest of our fencing and ironwork, restoring the metalwork on older properties.

Frequently asked questions
My iron stair railing is loose. Is that a quick fix?
Often, yes — a loose railing usually needs its anchors re-secured or a corroded base repaired. Because a stair or porch railing is a safety item, we make sure it is solid and code-appropriate, not just tightened for the moment.
