NC Shegstad & Sons Ornamental Ironworks

Very well, they figured out a way to do it less expensively. Looks great!

Put a request on Angie’s list on Saturday morning. Dave called & came out Saturday afternoon (in the rain). He gave me a quote. By Thursday morning, railings were installed. His work is beautiful & perfect. Very happy to have Dave do this job.

Had a vertical metal mirror that I ordered from Amazon that I wanted to mount horizontal. Sent out some requests for a welders through Angie's list and by the next morning Dave reached out. That night I had the mirror in his shop and the mounts perfectly re-positioned. Quality of service was great and price was very reasonable. I was anxious to get my new mirror up so I appreciate the prompt followup and immediate service. Recommended!

Done well. Looks great.

Excellent work (the second time they've done work for me), done promptly and for an excellent price. I recommend them highly and will certainly use them again.

Dave and I played a bit of phone tag to get to the time when we could meet and quote. There were many designs I liked from his collection but I finally narrowed it down to one. He broke out the bit of fancy-ness so I could compare with a more bare bones look. I chose the fancier one. I had a written quote from another firm who didn't meet with me personally but the reviews of Shegstad sold me on this firm. He had them installed within a week and they are beautiful.

Really well. It was a difficult job and he left charging me nothing! Very sweet handyman!

Very fast service; no problems.

Excellent work, very timely.  Very easy to work with.  I love my new railings.  Much safer now with the winter weather coming!  Quality is exceptional. 

We are very pleased with the product and the service.

Dave never oversold or interferred with my initial idea. When we ran onto a unusual design issue he asked me to come to his shop and showed me options to resolve what could have been a problem. His patience and understanding was remarkable. He was always concerned that from initial design to final installation it looked exactly as I had imagined. I would recommend him to the most fastidious customer. He won't disappoint.

Project went very well.   Dave responded quickly, and was determined to do install by requested date, but bad weather prevented that.  That was not a problem for us.  He provided solid recommendations for our requirements.  Was very responsive, letting us know what his plans were.  Project was completed quickly and professionally.  Based on our one time experience with this provider, we definitely would use Dave again and recommend him to others.

It could not have gone better. It seems now days so many things become complicated. Not so with

Dave Shegstad, we did everything over the phone and did not meet Dave until he came to install

the railing.  He asked what we were looking for in the railing and I told him to use his best judgment

and he hit a homerun. The railing looks great and all went so well. It was a very pleasant experience

and have already passed on his card. Would use again without hesitation. Thanks Dave

Dave contacted me after I had submitted a job via Angie's List SnapFix. He e-mailed me in the evening saying that he was going to call me the next morning on a Saturday. Promptly around 8 a.m., he called me. He came right out within a half hour to come look and give an estimate for the job.
I took a couple days to decide. While another contractor had given me a ballpark estimate which was a little less than his, they hadn't returned my calls, so I decided to go with Dave. I called him on Monday to let him know. The other contractor called me that afternoon to schedule an estimate, but I told him that I already went with someone else earlier that morning. I think it was like 2-3 days later, Dave called to say that the hand railings were ready and he'd come by within the hour to install them. I really think it was like only 2 days. I was so surprised as his speediness.
He hit a snafu while installing the railings, but he was able to work through it. He also helped me with painting some metal flashing that I had in front of my door. Overall, I was very pleased and it was such a relief to work with somebody who was eager to do the work and did it well and promptly. I really appreciate the ease, and multiple people have complimented on how beautiful the hand railings look!

Dave came out right away to measure the steps and provide a bid. I had selected a design from among the handrails shown on their web site. He built the handrails and installed them in less than two weeks. He was pleasant and responsive. Several people have told us how beautiful they look. More importantly, they allow me to come in and out of the house safely. We asked Dave to make them consistent with ADA and he did a great job. Beautiful and safe! We could not be more pleased.

It went well. We were concerned about getting the railings replaced before the first frost since family and friends coming by to visit needed those railings. They were able to schedule with us within a week of the break and had the railings replaced in a few hours. The new railings have gotten through the winter and look like they'll be with us for years to come.

Two step railing done in two days after the order was put in.  Great job, very friendly and professional.

I took the pieces that I needed to be attached together to Shegstad & Sons shop in Southeast Minneapolis.

After describing what I needed, Dave designed a method for making exactly the custom lamp post base I needed.

He was able to do this while I waited, was very accommodating and explained what he was doing during the process.

I would definitely recommend him for any kind of custom metal work.

Great!  Always, fast, excellent work

Great !  They had lots of options,once we made our choice the railings were installed in less than a week

Twice in about 12 months, in spite of our security system, had two attempted burglaries. Each time it has been a rear window broken with an object, causing damage, expense, and time to clean up. We also know our house has been "cased" quite often so we finally decided to get bars on our windows.
Dave came out the same day we called, and provided an extensive portfolio of his work. There were so many options to make the bars decorative...he does some lovely stuff! He was very patient with me and my husband, showing us different ideas along the vein of what we each liked, and giving us an idea of prices.
We at first chose only 5 windows to be done, three on the first floor and two on the second, but we changed our mind a couple days later and decided to do 6 lower level windows. Dave came out the next day and measured those windows, and was again very patient with us having changed our minds.
He and his son came out the day they promised, at the time they gave, and installed the bars quickly and efficiently.
Also, I spoke with Cindy to put the purchase on our credit card, and she was just lovely.
Bonus is that is is a small, local business right in our neighborhood. Dave does all kinds of iron work, and I'd defintely contact him again if I wanted anything ornamental like flower boxes, etc.

I like NC Shegstad & Sons' work. he was very nice and pretty much did exactly what they said they were going to do. They did a great job. I liked the design but I think they actually ordered it. I like that they were on time. I wasn't thrilled with the price.
