OUR PROCESS
At Eckstrom, we believe every project is more than just materials and timelines—it’s a partnership. From first conversation to final installation, our team is committed to delivering an experience defined by craftsmanship, communication, and care.
That’s what it means to be More Than Metal.
SALES & ESTIMATION
Understanding your vision from the very first conversation.
At Eckstrom, our Sales & Estimation team goes beyond simply pricing a project—we take the time to understand your goals, vision, and priorities from the very beginning. By doing so, our clients know—before a formal proposal is even delivered—that we are fully invested in both them and the success of their project.
We actively look for ways to add value at every stage. Whether it’s recommending more efficient fabrication or installation methods to reduce costs, or suggesting alternative materials and finishes built better to last (paint, powder coat, and more), our goal is to minimize surprises and maximize results.
As a full-service Custom Specialty Metals shop, we pride ourselves on flexibility and collaboration. Whether your project starts with detailed architectural drawings or a simple idea sketched on a napkin, our team has the experience and drive to bring it to life—because to us, it’s always More Than Metal.
DESIGN & DETAILING
Turning ideas into precise, buildable solutions.
At Eckstrom, our Design & Detailing team is where ideas begin to take shape. Building on the foundation established during Sales & Estimation, our detailers collaborate closely with clients, architects, and contractors to transform concepts into clear, accurate, and buildable plans.
Because we operate as a complete Custom Specialty Metals company, our team brings both creative thinking and real-world fabrication knowledge to every project. This allows us to anticipate challenges early, improve efficiency, and ensure smoother execution in the field.
Whether we’re helping a General Contractor meet accelerated timelines or assisting an architect in navigating finish selections for interior or exterior applications, our detailing team is always focused on delivering clarity, efficiency, and confidence—because great projects are built on more than drawings alone.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Clear communication. One team. No surprises.
At Eckstrom, communication is the foundation of every successful project. That’s why we provide a single point of contact for every job—your dedicated Project Manager.
Your Project Manager serves as both your direct line to our team and the central coordinator across all phases of the project. From kickoff through completion, they maintain consistent communication while ensuring alignment between detailing, fabrication, and installation.
By operating as one unified team, we stay proactive, responsive, and organized—helping reduce stress, avoid delays, and keep your project moving forward with confidence.
FABRICATION & FINISH
Craftsmanship built on pride, precision, and tradition.
Our shop team is the backbone of Eckstrom—and has been since 1912. The skilled craftsmen and women who make up our team take immense pride in their work, bringing complex projects to life through every phase of fabrication with precision and care.
That pride is rooted in a shared mindset: Hard Work Pays Off. It’s more than a saying—it’s a standard that drives everything we do.
In addition to fabrication, we offer a wide range of finishing options. Some are completed in-house at our Everett facility, while others are performed by trusted local partners who share our commitment to quality and attention to detail.
INSTALLATION
Delivering on the details—right down to the final review.
At Eckstrom, we believe the best people to install our work are the ones who built it.
Our installation team takes ownership of every project from start to finish, ensuring that what leaves our shop is delivered, handled, and installed with the same level of care and precision it was built with.
We pride ourselves on offering a true turn-key experience—from initial concept through final installation, ensuring everything meets your vision exactly as intended.
