## Questions

### How do I find metal fabricators near me?

Pick your metro on this site for local industries, codes, and suburbs where shops cluster. For structural steel, search the AISC certification directory by state. Then shortlist three shops, visit them, and compare written quotes.

### Do you list or rank fabrication shops?

Not yet. We will not publish invented listings, ratings, or reviews. Shops can send a listing inquiry; that form does not publish a listing. Featured listings will be clearly labeled when they launch.

### What is custom metal fabrication?

Making metal parts or assemblies to your drawing or need, rather than buying a stock product. It usually combines cutting, forming, welding or fastening, and finishing.
