Iron Ridge Welding
& Fabrication
Built Tough. Built Right. Built Here.
About Us
Built by Hand.
Backed by Experience.
Third-generation welder, Jake Dawson started Iron Ridge in his garage in 2013. What began as one man and a Miller welder has grown into a 4,000 square foot shop with a crew of three — but the standard hasn't changed.
Most days we're building gates, doing repairs, fabricating one-off parts, and tackling custom metalwork for ranchers and contractors across central Texas. We're also an authorized DDFAB dealer when you need a professional flatbed install — but that's one part of the shop, not the whole story. Every project gets the same attention to detail.
Every build leaves the shop with Jake's name on it — and he takes that personally.
