I moved into a house with stairs which I am disabled and have problems with. I purchased rails and asked him to install Jake ended up repairing the poor paint job that the vendors applied on their own materials. Then he fabricated another matching rail and created a handle in both the front door and the garage door. Jake and Grant both have good experience and knowledge and fabricating and installing the rails. I am very happy with the job that they did and they're knowledge with the ADA products and designs that I need. I am looking at getting back to them and hiring them to build a ramp inside the garage as well and I will definitely be returning back to them.

Due to my getting an approval from HOA where I live, the work has not started yet. But the representatives of JD metal were professional and responsive to my questions.

These guys were on time, polite and fixed our issue quickly for us. The weld was great and when we ran into a separate issue with the handrail being wobbly, they helped us problem solve it to make sure it was safe. Would definitely hire again, or recommend to anyone who needs fast, quality work done!

It’s serendipitous I contacted Jake thru Thumbtack and he’ll remain in my contacts for future projects and referrals! His work and creativity far exceeded my expectations. He truly has a skill and has honed his art with metal. I initially reached out to fix a leak in my metal fountain and the experience was so good I asked if he could design and build two planters for privacy on my porch. I sent him existing photos of my house and he responded with several creative solutions. I went with his first suggestion and so glad I put my trust in him. I returned the two plastic planters that actually cost more than having Jake design, build and deliver them to me in less than a week. AND I was supporting local business. Here’s photos of my old favorite fountain that now looks brand new, and the beautiful planters he made for me - they couldn’t be more perfect. In closing, Jake is so very, very kind and talented. He’s very accommodating, a pleasure to work with and does beautiful work he’s also proud of. I highly recommend Jake to you and my friends.
