We find it extremely satisfying to be able to meet so many wonderful people as we go about the business of beautifying our corner of the world one baluster at a time!
Our reputation for expert installations at extremely reasonable prices is every bit as important to us as the fact that we can produce that jaw-dropping transformation that you are looking for ... it is a reputation that we work hard to re-earn with every new client. Read on to see what some of our past clients have to say about their experience with Wrought Iron Elegance.
From a client in Ashburn, VA (Timberbrook Estates)
"My wife and I had talked about replacing the wooden stair balusters,
which were original to the house, with wrought iron ones for some time. Our
foyer stairs and 2nd level bridge are very prominent features as you enter our
house and the current over-sized, white wooden balusters were kind of
"screaming" at you when you looked up from the foyer and family room. We
thought the wrought iron balusters would change the look to one of
sophistication and elegance and tie-in the iron accents we had been using in our
home decor. We priced having the work done and were floored by the cost
estimates. The project was added to our "Wish List" of things to do when we
could scrape the money together.
Then the flyer from Shannon's company Wrought Iron Elegance
showed up in our mail box one day. It had been several years since our last
estimate and my wife had a birthday coming up, so I thought wouldn't it be a
nice surprise if I could somehow get this work done without her knowing. I
called Shannon and hatched the plan. Shannon worked with me every step of the
way to design the look (Oiled Black Bronze balusters alternating single twists
and double baskets), order the materials and schedule her installation team
around my wife's schedule so I could keep the project a secret. On the
designated day, I met her team at the house after my wife had gone to work. Ten
hours later, the entire project was done. Needless to say, when my wife got home
about an hour later, she was incredibly surprised. She couldn't stop raving
about the beauty of the look and how it transformed the entire appearance of our
home as we had hoped. To this day she can't believe I got the job done with out
her knowing and in only one day!
I hope this testimonial speaks volumes to the
care, professionalism and quality of the work Shannon and her installation team
brought to the project. Her installers were the best! Their workmanship and
work ethic was impeccable. Shannon and her team seemed to thrive on the
challenge of getting the work done in time to surprise my wife...and they did.
I can't praise and recommend Shannon and her team enough. They are the best!
Oh, and the price?...about half of my previous estimates. My wife and I are
more than pleased."

From a client in Fairfax, VA (Buckley's Reserve)
"I've always loved wrought iron, but never thought to change out the balusters until I saw a home that Shannon's team had done. When I took the plunge a year ago, I was never more pleased. The balusters made a HUGE difference; bringing out the architecture in the entryway and family room beautifully. I will admit, when I had them installed I was only thinking about my own enjoyment. I never gave a thought as to what the effect would be on the resale value of my home. Last week I put my house on the market and without exception, every person who has walked through my home has commented on how wonderful the balusters are. Turns out, it was an inexpensive investment that will no doubt be one of the reasons my home sells. When I am in my new home, I will be calling Wrought Iron Elegance again to help me create that same warm welcoming atmosphere."
From a client in Ashburn, VA (Brambleton)
"Now that the holidays are over, we wanted to take this time
to thank you again for the beautiful job you did on our new iron balusters. We
have been enjoying and admiring them every day! We appreciate the extra time
and expertise you took in helping us to design just the right pattern and color
choice to enhance our stairways. You were extremely pleasant and professional
to work with. Considering the excellent product choices you were able to offer,
your pricing was far superior to your competitors.
The quick delivery and installation, made this home
improvement project virtually “painless”. Your installers were very experienced
and very detailed. They did not waste a minute and had the job done in just a
few short hours. Both were very pleasant and respectful of our home and made
sure there was not a thing out of place when they left.
We have passed your name on to several other people and
would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone looking to create that
“WOW” factor for a reasonable investment. The first thing people comment on
when walking in the door, is how beautiful our iron staircase is!"
From a client in Leesburg, VA (River Creek)
"We had always wanted to upgrade our balusters to
wrought iron but thought it would be too cost prohibitive, not to mention that
we thought we would have to replace our entire staircase to do so. We found out
that through Wrought Iron Elegance neither was true. In fact we were able to
enhance all three staircases in our home from wood to beautiful wrought iron.
The selection offered was great, the quality was more than we had expected and
the cost was extremely reasonable. The process was effortless. Shannon was a
pleasure to work with, professional and extremely knowledgeable. The crew who
did the work was prompt, very neat and professional. We are so pleased with the results, they are better than we could have imagined,
our staircases are stunning."
From a client in Burke, VA
"I just wanted to drop you a note to once again thank you for
the wonderful job your company did in upgrading our staircase with wrought iron
balusters. Not only do the balusters look incredible, but the replacement of the
original wood balusters with the wrought iron has also helped in solidifying and
stabilizing our staircase railings.
We were extremely satisfied with the value the project has
added to our home for the relatively small cost of the project. Your input in
helping us choose the perfect balusters was invaluable. Also, your installer did
a terrific job. He was both professional and courteous.
I would not hesitate to recommend your company in the
future."
From a client in Asburn, VA (Belmont Greene)
"We
have lived in Ashburn since 2001. Our
house was new when we moved in. Since
then, we have had many improvements and upgrades to our home. Working with Shannon Sibley and her Wrought
Iron company was a pleasure from start to finish! And the stairs look better than I ever
expected! Many times ads like hers in
the newspaper are deceiving and only tell half the story. Having not researched the idea of changing
our stairs before, something caught my eye about her advertisement. So I called just to see if this company was
all that it claimed to be and what it offered.
Shannon was very easy to talk too.
No hard sales pitch or condescending comments or tone. She came on time and as promised (that was a
first compared to other contractors I have called before!). The options provided for the replacement
balusters made it easy to choose from.
Again, no bait and switch tactics that would drive up the cost!! We selected one that looks much “upgraded”,
but at a very reasonable price. I
originally expected to be quoted 3 or 4 times the actual cost.
Installation – okay, here is where I was
prepared for the most anxiety. None what
so ever! Her main installer was very
easy to communicate with and extremely professional. He was very respectful of our house and did a
great job cleaning up after the work was complete. More importantly, his work was
impeccable! Again, I expected to just
live with some flaws, but there were none!
It was an amazing transformation!
I wish all contractors were like Shannon and they had the ability to
deliver great results like Wrought Iron Elegance. I don’t usually write these testimonials, but
this time it was worth the effort!"
From a client in Leesburg, VA (River Creek)
"Shannon was terrific. She assisted with helping me define my ideas and recommend a design. It turned out beautiful and the installers were great. I would definitely recommend Wrought Iron Elegance to anyone!"
From a client in Ashburn, Virginia (Ashburn Farm)
"We are extremely satisfied with the results. The wrought iron balusters and
hardwood stairway adds beautiful elegance to our foyer. The prices were very
reasonable and the installation and customer service were exceptional.
Consultation was extremely helpful during our planning and very impressive
follow-up after installation to ensure that we were completely satisfied.
Workmanship exceeded our expectations."
From a client in Leesburg, VA (Raspberry Falls)
"No Comparison!! Wrought Iron Elegance was superior in every facet!"
From a client in Ashburn, VA (Brambleton)
"Thank you for such a great experience! We are thankful that you went the extra mile to send us the before and after pictures. We plan on showing the pictures to people who ask about our upgrade and will definitely refer them to you. Thanks so much for such a positive experience!"
