From the beginning of getting a quote, Daly City iron responded to my inquiries quickly. Their office ALWAYS picks up the phone or replies back to my email within the same day. Installation was even earlier than they projected. Felipe physically came out to my location 4 times BEFORE the install to measure and ensure the design fit our door frame. The care and detail-orientation here is amazing. He had great insights and selections when it came to the design and installation. Due to a couple small miscommunications, we had to change the paint color and remove a safety feature and the team made both changes WITHIN A DAY. Just absolutely incredible experience. The quote I received was also way more in line with what we were hoping to pay vs some other vendors. Highly highly recommend Felipe and his team.

The not so good?!?! Older fella came out and he didn't seem too happy to be here. He also had a hard time conveying any design ideas and requirements clearly. He had Hispanic accent which I am no stranger too. (I've worked and managed hundreds of Hispanic folk over the years) We finally came to some design and construction details but I felt like I was given a take it or leave it handrail solution. He didn't offer any other constructive solutions unlike another company I was also trying to get a quote from He did throw a price out there before leaving. So with that rough start I decided not to work any further with them. Too bad Oh well. I give them 3 stars for just not putting the best foot forward?

He came to us with samples of all his railings. Being able to see the finished product helped us decide what style we wanted. We ended up changing our mind after seeing the samples, so this was really helpful to us. Later on, he came out to measure multiple times--before and after the floors were down--to make sure everything was perfect. He matched the wood to our floor in to help create a seamless look. He was super careful when he installed them not to damage any of the new construction. Everything came out perfectly. The glass railings look beautiful and well worth the investment. I would highly recommend Joey.
