My condo association hired them to repair our back staircase. There were a couple stairs with holes in them and many loose steps. Communication and professionalism were exceptional as well as the work. Over a year after the work was complete a metal protective sheet came loose and they came back out to weld it back in place. No charge. They also did some touch up painting when they were here. Amazing company to work with and I highly recommend them.

I cannot be more happy with the work that Ramiro and his team did. We had a very ugly, scraggly fence in place that they removed and then helped to come up with ideas for a beautiful new fence. It has changed the entire look of our house! I appreciate their flexibility as I made some changes in what I wanted before the work started. Every interaction with Ramiro, Heather, and the team was genuine, thoughtful, and caring! I highly recommend Skyline Metal Fabrication.

Ramiro is a perfectionist and his attention to detail far exceeds industry standards. He has done two jobs for us - a few small repairs to a railing, followed by an extensive revamp of a wrought iron fence.
We removed failing brick posts and Ramiro and crew patched in new segments of wrought iron fencing to bridge the gaps. You can't even tell where the patches occurred. He fabricated arches over the two gates (which were both sagging), installed new locks and adjusted the height on one which was, for some reason originally installed several inches higher. They both now work like a charm. And

Skyline is the best! They came out to fix two gates on our property, one that needed to have a new spring put in so it closed automatically, and one that need to be adjusted so it didn't "clang" so loudly. Ramiro and Heather are very responsive, booked the appointment for a quote and then came to do the work very quickly thereafter. They are also very flexible and will come by earlier if they are in the area and finish up another job early. We had them come back out to do another quick fix and they were again very responsive and Ramiro took the time to walk me through exactly what he was going

I really can't say enough great things about Skyline. My husband and I bought a house with a pretty shoddy fence recently, so we knew we'd need to get an upgrade. We started by getting quotes from 3 different companies for a wrought iron fence, and during that brief process, Ramiro and Heather helped us out by patiently explaining our options, answering every possible question imaginable (and I ask a lot of questions...), so we went with Skyline Metal. And WOW I am so thrilled that we did.
Ours was not a huge job, we had probably around 50-60 feet of fence & posts to put up, along

My Condo Association hired Skyline/Ramiro to address rusting stair landing legs and significant rust buildup on the platform and stairs. We contacted three different vendors to provide quotes.
Ramiro showed up for the quote on time and really caught my attention when I realized that he stayed an additional 30 minutes (after we finished speaking) to go through every element of the project to make sure he had the proper measurements. His quote was significantly more detailed than the other vendors and his price was fair and reasonable. Our Association felt comfortable going with Ramiro because of

Skyline Metal Fabrication's attention to detail, flexibility, expert craftsmanship, excellence, and ultimate pursuit of perfection is what immediately comes to mind when I think about my experience with Ramiro, Heather, and crew. After vetting about 10 local companies for my iron fence project, Skyline was head and shoulders above the competition. For example, one of the questions I asked all companies was "How much distance would separate each post on this property?" Until Ramiro, all companies responded with a generic, canned answer. Ramiro, on the other hand, took out

I don't know what the issue is with the negative reviews but I can tell you that Ramiro was great. We had railing installed to the front of our house. He brought out samples and discussed a variety of options to meet our needs. He was able to finish the project before snow and match the color perfectly. Highly recommended.

We talked with Ramiro back in June and we got around to getting some work done on our railings and fences this month. We live in the city and we think he did a great job of it! He designed, fabricated, and installed everything in an orderly fashion. The cost was also reasonable and we'd definitely work with him again! Thanks Ramiro!

Ramiro installed an iron railing for our indoor staircase. Later on we used his services again to install an iron outdoor fence. Ramiro is very professional, friendly and takes the time to make sure everything is done to the highest quality. Overall we had a great experience and the work they did looks amazing!

I'm a property manager and I work with plenty of contractors. It usually takes a while to find the good contractors and even longer to establish a good partnership. Ramiro was one of those very few contractors who was great right off the bat.
I had an emergency security situation where I needed a broken alley gate fixed. The hinges rusted off and the very heavy steel framed wooden door was on the ground. I called around and while most steel welders didn't even return my call, Ramiro replied quickly and was willing to meet me early the next morning since he already had a full day

This was one of the best experiences I've ever had with a contractor (and I've had a lot of them do work on homes.). I called Ramiro; he called right back, came out the following day for an estimate (very kind man); I texted him the design I wanted. He had my 2 beautiful wrought iron bannisters done in 3 days and installed. I'm very, very happy with how they were installed, how they look, and just the whole experience. You will not be disappointed!
