Highly skilled in his craft! You will not find better!
Highly skilled in his craft. We had a complicated design and Aleksi diligently calculated all aspects from plan and manufactured with meticulous detail a set of gates that were identical to our design. He could not have been more accommodating when it came to installation, adjusting and adapting you suit all our requests. Thank you.Verified reviewerJob location: WD310 Metalwork / Blacksmith

A Rare Find: Exceptional Craftsmanship, Trust, and Going Above & Beyond
I honestly couldn’t recommend Aleksi more highly. I came into this project quite nervous, if I’m honest. I’d had a pretty bad experience previously with paying deposits to contractors and not getting the level of service or reliability I expected, so I was very cautious this time around. I spoke to well over 15 different options in what was, at the time, a bit of a panic to avoid being let down again. From the very beginning, Aleksi stood out. He was calm, reassuring, and—most importantly—knowledgeable. He took the time to really understand what I wanted, which wasn’t a straightforward briefVerified reviewerJob location: E3RGeorgie10 Railings

Excellent job
Alex was solid all around! Competitively priced and he turned around staircase railings in under 2 weeks from viewing to production to fitting! Great work!Verified reviewerJob location: N20RIsaac A10 Metalwork / Blacksmith

Very reasonable Person😊
Alex was very much attentive to my job and given much time to my dilemma, he came up with a good solution and the result was a perfect door plate for my job which I was very pleased with. His price is very reasonable and at times I feel he is lower than most other companies I phoned. Once again big thank you for my job.Verified reviewerJob location: N2210 Railings
