Steel bracing isn’t just for commercial buildings. Residential homes often require steel supports in situations like:
Whether we’re installing a steel beam to replace a wall or reinforcing a failing floor system, our solutions are engineered for strength, safety, and long-term performance.
Steel Beam Installation
We install structural steel I-beams and channels to carry heavy loads across wide spans or weakened areas. Beams are installed with proper bearing points, fasteners, and shoring to meet or exceed code.
Steel Post & Column Supports
We replace old or failing wood posts with steel jack posts or permanent columns to ensure stability and long-term durability.
Custom Steel Bracing
Need a custom structural solution? We fabricate and install custom steel bracing for walls, floors, and foundations—including angle braces, plates, and connectors.
Engineering Collaboration
We work closely with structural engineers to ensure every steel solution is designed to handle the load requirements safely.
At Old School Contracting, we reinforce structures with precision—no guesswork, no shortcuts, just rock-solid results.
If your structure needs stronger support or you're planning a major remodel, steel bracing may be the safest route. Let Old School Contracting inspect your home and recommend the right steel solution. Call (262) 442-8040 or go to our contact form to request your free structural evaluation in Delafield.
