About Capitol Iron Works
Capitol Iron Works operates from Gaithersburg, Maryland, in the heart of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The company was founded in August 2014 by Ronald Vargas, who serves as president and co-owner. Vargas immigrated to the United States from Nicaragua in 2004 and learned welding on the job at Bethesda Iron Works, eventually earning his welding certification before launching his own venture, initially named Capitol Iron Solutions. The shop specializes in custom ornamental and architectural metalwork, producing railings, stairs, handrails, glass and cable railings, steel fencing, balconies, canopies, and automatic gates. It works with stainless steel, aluminum, bronze, structural steel, wrought iron, and glass, offering powder-coat finishes. The 4,300-square-foot facility houses three fabrication units and a staff of 14. Project values range from $1,000 to $500,000, with revenue projected at $1.5 million for 2018. Capitol Iron Works serves residential, commercial, and government clients across the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia region. Notable government work includes fabrication and installation of bronze railings for the Rayburn House Office Building under contract with the Architect of the Capitol, the federal agency responsible for the U.S. Capitol Complex. The company also handles restoration of historic metalwork. Vargas attributes the firm’s rapid growth to customer service, on-time delivery, and a stable, skilled workforce—only one employee has left in four years. He emphasizes a willingness to tackle complex, challenging projects that other shops might avoid, combining fabrication, installation, and restoration under one roof.
