Terrace House Metalwork
Design Principles

JB Wrought Iron preserves the timeless beauty of Victorian terrace architecture through meticulously crafted replica ironwork that honours original 19th-century design. The brochure outlines the core principles that guide their approach—from using authentic sand-cast lacework and era-correct patterns to ensuring structural integrity, CAD-driven accuracy, and heritage-appropriate finishes. Every balustrade, frieze, fence, and gate is engineered to meet modern standards while retaining the texture, proportions, and craftsmanship of the originals—resulting in restorations built to last for generations.

Terrace House Metalwork
Design & Quoting Process

JB Wrought Iron follows a clear six-step process—from an on-site design brief to detailed CAD drawings and final installation—to deliver authentic, compliant terrace house metalwork. Each stage covers heritage requirements, structural needs, collaboration with other trades, and precise specifications, ensuring every replica balustrade, frieze, or palisade fence is beautifully designed, accurately quoted, and expertly built.
