A straightforward way of working

Dougie began his apprenticeship in fabrication and blacksmithing in 2007 and has worked with customers in and around Paisley ever since.

The approach is practical: understand what is needed, agree the details and get on with the job. From handrails and railings to furniture and decorative pieces, the work is made around what you need and the space you have. Whether it is a new piece or existing metalwork that needs attention, the aim is something that fits its purpose and looks right in its setting.

Bring a rough idea, a few sizes or a photograph and we will talk through the options with you. Quotes are free, and workshop visits are by appointment.
