Why Cast Iron Restoration Requires Experts
Cast iron is not like standard masonry or steel. Improper repairs can lead to further damage, safety risks, and costly rework.
Cast iron is brittle and requires specialized welding and repair techniques
Untreated corrosion can weaken structural components and spread over time
Many buildings must meet landmark or LPC guidelines
Damaged elements often need to be recreated, not replaced with standard materials
Repairs must align with NYC codes and Local Law 11 requirements
