He asked if we wanted it cleaned up to look better but it is basically never visible and therefore preferred the stability rather than the aesthetic.

I took a day off to be there, called him 3 times, messaged him 2 times, left several voicemails... nothing... I called him the following day to ask he was planning to do the work or not, but he never called me back. It's very unprofessional. I would not recommend this business as it's not reliable and Pablo ignores its customers.

I recently worked with Efficient Ironworks and couldn't be happier with the entire experience…read more Paul, the owner, is truly exceptional. My deck has a lot of odd angles and was a complicated project, but Paul made everything feel easy. He was extremely communicative--texted me back right away, came out immediately to give me a quote, and always answered every follow-up question I had. It was genuinely a pleasure working with him. My custom-designed railing (64 linear feet) was hot-dip galvanized and took about six weeks from start to finish. Paul recommended a matte black finish because the hot-dip process can leave slight irregularities, but it ensures the metal will never rust. He was absolutely right--the final result is stunning. The railing was installed the day before my birthday party, and we made it just in time. All of my guests and neighbors were blown away by how beautiful everything turned out. Paul is professional, reliable, and highly skilled. I would honestly ignore any one-star reviews--they do not reflect the quality of his work or service. I look forward to hiring him again in the future for a security gate and more ironwork projects. Five stars, easily.

Thankfully we found Paul and Isaac at Efficient Iron Works. They worked with us to come up with a design that was clean, decorative, but not too ornate, and gave us several recommendations for what would look good. They were responsive, professional, and finished the job sooner than expected. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations and their price fit our budget.

Their work is clean, solid, and exactly what you expect from top-quality custom metal fabrication. While other companies may offer similar services, I can't confirm that. What I can say with confidence is that you won't find two nicer people to work with than the Delgado brothers, Franco and Neil. Working with them feels like the attentive service you'd get at a high-end department store--without any sales pressure or attitude. If you're not choosing Southern Cali Custom Metal Fabrication, you're missing out. I assume one can have metal work done in countless places, but if you're not working with these guys, you won't be working with the best value, quality, and attention to detail in town! Robert A.
