What Our Clients Are Saying
Real feedback. Real results.
Our clients come to us with ideas — and leave with custom pieces they can’t stop showing off. From homeowners to builders, we’re proud to earn reviews that speak for themselves.
Challenging to find the words to express how pleased my husband and I have been with Schmidt Ironworks. After two projects and from our first introductory phone call to our final installation, Josh Schmidt is top notch! Not sure he realizes how incredibly talented he is. On top of all of his skill, is his genuine intent to make the customer happy. So refreshing!
I recently hired Josh to install a new railing in my house and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the contractor was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The quality of workmanship was top-notch, with the railing being installed perfectly and securely. Josh paid attention to every detail and made sure that everything was done to my satisfaction.
Josh is a true artist! He is a perfectionist at being a perfectionist and will not rest until every detail is just right. He is professional, creative, and timely. We have used him on multiple occasions and have been absolutely thrilled with all the projects he has completed for us! We would give him 10 stars if that was an option and we look forward to working with him in the future!
