- CEChris ErtzDec 30, 20255.0Five stars for Paul and team at Efficient Iron Works. They deliver top‑tier custom metal fabrication across San Diego. Their craftsmanship, unique design vision, and customer service make them stand out. Easy to work with, reliable, and truly talented. Highly recommend!
- LWli wangDec 29, 20255.0I'd like to give a huge thumbs up to Efficient Iron Works. We had a walk path iron gate that needed to be replaced. Paul and Issac were super pleasant to work with, always responsive to our inquires and on time with the appointments. To ensure the new gate would fit perfectly, they took an extra trip to dry-fit the gate prior to the galvanizing and paint process. I couldn't be more satisfied with the quality of the gate and the turn-around time. Would highly recommend to others for using their services.
- DPDominika ProcekDec 11, 20255.0I recently worked with Efficient Ironworks and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. 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. He gave me the best quote out of everyone too. 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.
- ECEve ChenOct 24, 20255.0Reached out to couple companies for the outdoor handrail installed requested by home insurance and I have to say the handrails installed by efficient iron work way exceeded our expectations. Communication btw Paul and his team is very good and very responsive. Their quote is very competitive, build quality and design are nice as well. The whole process from Paul came out do the quote till installation finished is quite smooth and on schedule. Paul and his team even made a better design than I originally thought. Also love the paint color they helped to choose, it matches perfectly with our concrete stairs. Highly recommend reach out to efficient iron work for your project!
