If you’ve ever had a bad experience working with a steel fabricator, you may wonder if there’s another approach. The answer is “Yes!” At Boardman, we always focus on quality, but what really sets us apart is our promise of stewardship. Because we are a privately owned company, we can place high priority on accountability and being agile enough to take swift action.
For you, that means you’ll be able to select your level of involvement: Do you want us to handle everything? Would you like us to use your drawings? Would you like to be informed every step of the way? We’ll answer these questions with stewardship, taking full responsibility for your project, treating it as our own, and ensuring you feel guided along the way.
