That's the place alright. Great people and very good pricing. In the Lake Charles area, the people that do ornamental iron wanted the whole job or none at all. They wanted the markup on the iron also. I already had a contractor account with Orleans Ornamental Ironworks.
I didn't have access to a sand blaster so we used Ospho (sp). Sand litely to get loose rust off, apply Ospho (sp) and paint well. The Ospho (sp) changes the chemical composition of the rust that is left back into metal. No rust yet after 7 years.
