Rocky Corliss - Business Owner - Corliss Excavation
"Every time I break something on some heavy equipment I call Tom. He has never let me down, even on a weekend or an evening. His welding is top quality and he works fast. Thanks Tom, for keeping me running and on the job"
Mike and May Fortun - Homeowners - San Juan Island
"Our house was designed with a lot welding on steel beams, heavy angle iron, custom steel support brackets, railing, circular stairs, landings and patio wind screens. Tom came on the job when it was about half completed. He took on the most complex steel projects and did an excellent job. He was able to interpret the architect's drawings and make suggestions that were more efficient and cost effective. We were lucky to have found Tom to complete this project."
Peter Schmidt - General Contractor - Peter Schmidt Construction
"I've relied on Tom several times. He has always done what we needed, he does it on time and he does it right the first time. Tom was able to successfully complete one very complex steel frame stair rebuild project that at first we though may not be able to done at all."
Ross McCallum - Business Owner - Kiwi Connection Property Maintenance
"I've had Tom do several jobs for us. His workmanship is excellent, he is willing to work within our budget, he is very helpful with the design and planning stages, and the final results are exactly what we want."
Cliff Lowe - General Contractor - Lowe Construction
"We've been lucky to have Tom to help us on several jobs where metal work was required. He has tackled some of the most complex projects for us with excellent results. He has also been there when we needed him on short notice. He has invested countless hours of his own time to research methods and solutions for us so that we could keep our costs down and our customers satisfied."
Mark Trahan - Construction Forman
"I first met Tom when I desperately needed a welder on the job. We were getting way behind and we could not move forward until the steelwork was completed. Tom promised that he would take care of job for me. He was there early and worked all day for several days until we were caught up and had our full crew working again. Tom is always pleasant to work with, he works well with all of the sub-contractors and crew and he helps others when needed."
Dave Hall - Business Owner - Island Glass
"I've had Tom do several small projects for me and I've worked with him on some large joint projects for other customers. He does good work at a fair price and does it on time."
Steve Luther - Business Owner - Aloha Appliance
"I met Tom and Linda when they first moved to Friday Harbor in 1990. We have had several business dealings over the years. Tom has good business sense and always strives to satisfy his customers. Since he started the welding business I have had him do a couple of small projects for me and I've been quite pleased with the quality, the timely performance and the price."
Rose Abbaspour - Rental Property Manager - Windermere Real Estate
"I've relied on Tom several times over the years. Although most of what he does for us has nothing to do with welding and metal, he has been there when we needed him. Tom has many handyman talents in addition to his welding and fabrication skills, and he is pleasant to work with and always professional."
Donna Munro - Business Owners - Vinny's Restaurant
"I was really stressed out trying to get the new restaurant finished and open for the season. We were installing propane tanks for the kitchen. I was informed that I had to have a gate, with ventilation, to isolate the tanks. I wanted something that looked good, so I called Tom. We looked at some photos, I picked the style I liked and I gave Tom a budget. Tom researched the components that I had chosen and then told me that I had great taste, but these would not fit the budget. I asked him to just build something because I had to have it. The results were fantastic, as you will see when you come to Vinny's for dinner. Tom and Linda used their combined creative talents and made me a gate that I could afford."
