Custom Fabrications Design.

The state insures this shop under a precision machined-parts class, which matches the work it advertises: metal cut, shaped and finished in-house rather than bought off a shelf. Custom Fabrications Design carries a Washington general contractor registration and reports a crew in the 11 to 20 range. It lists Neil Steel among the brands it works with and describes itself as family-owned. The state lists Robert Wiese as a principal since 2022. Its public work includes a 2022 job for the Douglas County Public Utility District, taken as prime contractor. Much of the business runs through other builders. It tends to work as a sub for general contractors on custom homes and renovations, so a homeowner may meet it through a builder as often as directly. It fits someone who wants a one-off stair, a steel railing, a pivot entry door or an outdoor kitchen made to measure. A full remodel with drywall, wiring and plumbing is a different kind of job, and this is a fabrication shop at heart. Spokane's housing runs from early-1900s homes on the South Hill and in Browne's Addition to newer builds out in Liberty Lake and the Valley, and metalwork has to meet each on its own terms. In an older house, a new railing or stair often anchors into framing and floors that have settled, so field measuring matters more than the drawing. Newer homes usually allow cleaner attachment points but call for finishes that match modern fixtures. For exterior pieces like fire pits, planters and chimney caps, ask about coatings that stand up to snow, freeze-thaw and summer sun.
