Do you take on one-off custom fabrication projects?

Yes — custom, one-off work is the core of what the shop does. Contact JG's to discuss whether your project is a fit for the shop's capabilities and current schedule.

Can you build from a sketch, photo, or measurement?

A sketch on paper, phone photos of the existing setup, and a few key measurements are usually enough to start the conversation. The more detail you provide about how the part will be used, the better the discussion goes.

What materials do you work with?

Material compatibility depends on the project. Call the shop with your project details and we'll confirm what can be used for your application.

How is a fabrication project priced?

Pricing depends on the scope of work, the materials involved, and the fabrication required. Projects are discussed individually rather than priced from a standard list.

How long will my project take?

Project timing depends on the scope, materials, current workload, and required fabrication. Contact JG's with your project details to discuss availability.

Built when off-the-shelf doesn't work

Catalog parts are made for an average situation. Your equipment, building, trailer, or workspace usually isn't average.

Custom fabrication starts with the problem, not the part. What has to mount where? What is it holding, carrying, or protecting? What has failed before? Once those answers are on the table, the metalwork can be laid out to suit the job instead of forcing an existing product to sort of work.

Bring an idea, a photo, a rough sketch, a measurement, or the old component itself. Any of those give the shop something concrete to work from.

Fit for purpose

Built for the customer's intended use

How a piece is used drives how it should be built — the mounting points, the layout, the access, and the clearances all follow from that.

Working from what you have

Ideas, phone photos, hand measurements, or an existing component you can drop off all work as a starting point for the conversation.

Fit and mounting first

Where the part attaches and what surrounds it usually decide the design more than the part itself does.

Practical, not decorative

The goal is metalwork that does the job day after day and is straightforward to use, service, and live with.

Who calls

Fabrication inquiries we hear most

Residential fabrication

Homeowners ask about gates, frames, brackets, supports, racks, and metalwork for projects around the property where nothing purchased quite fits.

Agricultural and equipment work

Farms and equipment owners ask about components, mounts, guards, and steel work that keeps equipment usable through the season.

Commercial fabrication

Contractors and businesses ask about supports, platforms, frames, and shop or jobsite metalwork built to a specific requirement.
