Railings & Metalwork in Westmount, Edmonton
Custom railings, a new gate or a welding repair, Tabmatch sends your metalwork request to approved local metalworkers and shows you who can take it.
Westmount is one of Edmonton's older neighbourhoods, with a heritage area of early 1900s homes close to 124 Street.
Metalwork for homes in Westmount
Character two-storey homes and cottages, many over a hundred years old, sit next to newer infill.
Older homes often have original wrought-iron railings and gates that can be repaired and refinished rather than replaced, and front steps that need a sturdier handrail.
Modern infill designs often call for steel railings, canopies and gates made to measure.
Back-lane gates beside a detached garage are a common spot for a custom metal gate.
Stairs into an unfinished basement often have no proper handrail, a quick fix for a metalworker.

Seasonal tip for Edmonton
Outdoor railing installs are easiest from spring to fall. Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles are hard on metal, so spring is a good time to check railings and gates for rust.
