I don't write a lot of reviews, but Kevin and his father, Hamlet, at H Ironworks definitely deserve…read moreone. I called H Ironworks and spoke with Kevin about fabricating a custom steel cable tension brace to support a shade sail spanning about 35 feet. He and his father came out to my house, listened to what I was trying to accomplish, took measurements, and then went back to the shop to figure out the best way to build it. About a week later they returned for a test fit, and everything lined up perfectly. The following week they brought it back powder coated, and I couldn't have been happier. The workmanship was outstanding--beautiful finish, clean welds, and it looked like it had always belonged there. Just as important, Kevin and Hamlet are genuinely nice people. They're easy to work with, communicate well, show up when they say they will, and clearly take pride in what they do. I would recommend H Ironworks without a second thought. Five stars all the way. Thank again guys! Jesse

I recently had a pleasure working with H Ironworks To fabricate custom side yard gate and really…read morehappy with their work! The craftsmanship is so superb and I definitely got very personal attention to detail on every step of process. Them not having hundreds of reviews made me bit nervous but Kevin and his team's initial detail oriented proposal made me taking a leap of faith and I'm so glad I did! Kevin Sr. Is a true artist and Kevin's handling on thorough process from the initial design to installation is top notch and I'm not very easily pleased person when it comes to construction related projects!

I wanted to replace my old wooden gate with a new iron gate, so I reached out to 6 different…read morecompanies to gather some estimates. In the end, Forgeways was my very close second-place choice only because their estimate was a bit higher, but their communication was top-notch and extremely professional. Forgeways' Frank arrived promptly and took many notes on my homemade gate design. After receiving his digital estimate, Frank texted photos of a similar gate currently being installed elsewhere, which demonstrated their craftsmanship and care to detail, and he included questions regarding my initial custom design to make sure he fully understood my design. Even though I didn't end up hiring them in the end, Frank's professionalism and communication were on point, proving that Forgeways is 100% worth your consideration.

BEST COMPANY EVER! This is the easiest review I've written in 26 years of home ownership. Exotic…read moreiron works is a FANTASTIC company. They are beyond versatile (do all kinds of iron work), as well as being skilled artisan craftsmen. Sam and his dad (a master iron craftsman) are the loveliest of people-- communicative, honest, easy to deal with, and invested in doing the best work possible. They take great pride in their work. It took me years to find someone who could imagine the kind of railing design I needed for my 1926 uneven unique wall. No one but their company suggested this design and were able to pull it off without a hitch. The pictures speak for themselves. Look no further if you are wanting a fantastically skilled company, reasonable prices, and gems to work with. THANK YOU EXOTIC IRON WORKS!!

Sam and his dad at Exotic Iron Works transformed our front perimeter into a showpiece. From the…read morefirst on-site consultation they impressed us with thoughtful design suggestions--matching the gentle curve of the street, integrating warm hardwood caps, and spacing the balusters so the planting beds still breathe. Their craftsmanship is flawless: every weld is clean, the powder-coat is even, and the wood inlays sit perfectly flush with the metal frame. Sam's father personally checked each panel for plumb and level, and the team worked long days to finish ahead of schedule without cutting corners. They left the site spotless, even hauling away the old fencing and sweeping the driveway. Beyond the technical excellence, communication was a breeze. Sam texted progress photos, confirmed small details (hinge style, post-top finials) before committing, and honored the original quote to the penny. If you want ironwork that's equal parts art and engineering--delivered by people who treat your project like their own home--hire Exotic Iron Works. The results are stunning, and the experience is just as impressive.

Someone at one point had tried to repair it (and did a beyond terrible job) and the old welds were breaking. I honestly thought the thing was beyond saving, but Adam worked his magic and welded it back together like new (see before and after pics).

Tony was very responsive throughout the process and welcomed my input before, during, and after the fabrication and installation of my gate.

The gate itself feels very sturdy and has a quality feel to it that exceeded my expectation, adding both beauty and security to my home. Thank you to Tony, family, and your team.

I've been a return customer of JRC for over 10 years on various projects that they've fabricated…read moreand installed for our properties. JRC had made beautiful ornamental iron gate and fence, security door, and window guards for our properties, and every project was beautifully, precisely fabricated, and installed. Whenever we reached out to JRC, we know that we can be rest assured with Rene's attention to details and design, and communicating with Stephanie who does great work coordinating the projects and scheduling. On top of all, the projects couldn't be completed without their highly skilled installers. All and all, JRC means top quality wrought iron product at a fair price. Every piece of wrought iron from JRC is a beautiful art work, and we look forward to working with JRC on our future projects!

In mid-April, I contacted 6 metal fabricators requesting a custom iron double gate to replace a…read more20-year-old dilapidated wooden gate. JRC's Jesse promptly arrived, carefully measured the space, and took many notes on my design. JRC's final estimate was very detailed, and the cost was exactly what I had expected between the other estimates I'd received. I put down 50%, and Jesse said it should take 4-6 weeks. Everything was going well until I realized it was the beginning of June and I hadn't heard from Jesse in 8 weeks. After my calls went unreturned, I emailed JRC's Director of Operations, Stephanie, who replied, "Jesse said he and one of our welders are working on your order, and you can expect completion in about a week. By Monday, we should have a better scope of exact install dates." After still not hearing from Jesse by the end of June, I reached out to Stephanie again for an update, who reported, "Our welder said he expects himself to be done tomorrow. We will be sending it to be powder coated, which just takes a day or 2." Another 3 weeks later in mid-July, with no installation date scheduled, I got a last-minute call explaining that they just had a cancellation and that they could install it today if I was available. Arnie arrived within the spontaneously scheduled window and got right to work installing the gate and meticulously making sure it was exactly right. He even hauled away the heavy old gate, which was very much appreciated. In the end, I'm very happy with the final build and installation, but JRC's communication leaves much room for improvement. I'd reached out to Jesse on a few occasions, and it took weeks to get a single response. A simple message that things were moving slower than expected or that it was going to take 12 weeks instead of 4-6 would have gone a long way. Also, having an actual installation date versus a last-minute cancellation that I could fill for them would have improved the overall process. Thankfully, Arnie left a very strong and professional last impression, as did Stephanie for her prompt and repeated replies. I only wish I didn't have to manage the project after all the missed milestones and awkward radio silences.
