By installing iron railings you can add an artistic element to your home. So, if you need one, you should probably think about what kind of railing you actually need and which company to install it you should hire. Of course there are many firm on the market, but you should choose really reliable one. When it comes to what kind of the railing you should choose, you need to know that that the best are wrought iron railings. Wrought iron is desirable because it is ductile, strong, and resistan to corriosion. But, although it is steady and sturdy, it is much more expensive than other types of metals, and is therefore not used as commonly as other metals. The average cost of a wrought iron railing depends on the size of the railing, the location and the amount of detail you want.
How much does a iron railing cost ?
As I mentioned, the cost of the iron railing depends on many factors. The first one is the material costs per foot. The wrought iron is the most expensive of the materials and it costs from $50 to $120 per foot. Of course the biggest cost that you will bear, will be the price of the installation itself. Most professionals charge by the project, typically between $300 and $1,000. Large projects and custom metalwork may be more expensive. When you will take under consideration things that the company will need like handrails, bottom rails, spindles, hardware and labor of your employee itself it can cost even $4,600. In addition to these components, you need to also think about location, type and the intended use of the railings. It all will have a big impact on the cost of your project. Which option you choose depends on your preferences, but be aware that this is not inexpensive work.
