Requesting a quote is simple. Call us at 904-260-6880, email admin@chanceymetals.com, or use the Estimate form on our website.

Do you offer in-house engineering and shop drawings?
Yes. Chancey Metals provides in-house detailing, shop drawings, and engineering coordination for every fabrication project. We work directly with your architect and structural engineer of record, produce stamped shop drawings when required, and submit for approval before any material is cut. This streamlines RFIs, reduces field issues, and keeps multi-family and commercial projects on schedule.

Yes. We are a true turnkey metal fabricator in Jacksonville. Our installation crews handle delivery, rigging, welding, and field-finishing on site, so you have one accountable contact from quote through punch list. This is especially valuable for stair systems, railings, awnings, and structural work where coordination between fabrication and installation is critical.
