Quality Work Leads to Beautiful Results…read more Skyline Metal Fabrication is the absolute best! We hired Skyline to replace our wooden backyard fences (fences that flank both sides of our property) with steel/wood privacy fences. The entire experience was handled very professionally. The process started with Ramiro, the owner and leader, visiting us to ask about/listen to what we wanted in a fence. Ramiro spent a fair amount of time with us to ensure full understanding of what the project would entail. Within a few days, Ramiro provided a fair estimate. Based on the reviews we read about his team's work and on our initial experience with Ramiro, we hired Skyline Metal Fabrication. Within a reasonable time frame (about 8 weeks in our case), Ramiro and the Skyline Metal Fabrication team was on site to start work. We found the entire crew to be friendly, considerate, conscientious, expedient, professional and hard-working. The team always accommodated our need to let our dog in the back yard to do her business without a hitch. They arrived on time and stayed until they completed what they needed to accomplish each day. They were also careful to clean up at the end of each day. Within five working days, our steel/wood privacy fence was complete. The work is of the highest quality, as the team focused on every detail, spending the time it took to ensure a beautiful result. We are particularly pleased with the excellent craftsmanship of the ornamental lattice work that tops our privacy fence. We can't recommend the Skyline team highly enough. We are extremely happy with their work. Anyone considering similar metalwork will be as well.

Whitney and the team did a fantastic job refurbishing an old heaven hill whiskey barrel that I had…read morein my living room. I was using it as an extension of my bar. I really liked it, but it was in a sad shape. There was a gooey residue on the barrel that would sometimes leave imprints on peoples clothes if they brushed up against it. And the barrel hoops kept falling down. Chicago fabrications brought the barrel back to life. They did an excellent job sanding and staining the barrel and cleaning up the metal hoops and fastening them so they would no longer slip down the barrel. And all that residue is gone. It looks like a million bucks and I would definitely recommend them for any projects you may be thinking of

This is an important choice for our cities, and our citizens. In our house, we are thrilled to support Tyler & Team. Although our first project was small, a trio of gorgeous live-edge walnut shelves for a tricky hallway laundry lack-of-storage issue, Whitney made sure that we left feeling like the most important clients to walk through the doors. Not only did her experience and ideas make the project much better, but it was done in less than half the time estimated, with some amazing trivets provided from the scraps as a gift. No doubt that they will be our go-to team for all future projects!

Even if I had expectations, Steve's service would have demolished them. I go into the shop, expecting to hear back in a week or so, and within ten minutes of leaving his shop, he calls us saying that the bed frame piece was fixed. I had been struggling with this project for almost two weeks, and Steve managed to fix it faster than the drive-tru at ChicFilA. I am still shocked and amazed at the affordable price and quick turnaround I received. If you have some stupidly proprietary piece of metal from some project that you have bungled, don't waste your time searching for an affordable replacement which will never exist. Save time and just take it to Steve so he can give you the result you initially wanted from the beginning.

Honored to have Steven's services so close by in the Western Suburbs. I will definitely be using them again for any fabrication!

This time I got a voice mail. That in itself is common when companies are busy, but when you get a voice mail for a business it is expected that you reached the correct number - their voice mail just says "Hello please leave a message after the tone." So I called back in case I got a personal phone number in error. It was the same VM, so it looks like this business doesn't want to go through the bother of figuring out how to recortd a welcoming, or even professional, appropriate message. Barker isn't alone in this; over the years, companies make very little effort to be welcoming and professional. It's probably a matter of supply and demand.
