I have been immersed in the world of construction and custom metal work since 2007. I have had the privilege of growing up with a large circle of friends and family that were all extremely talented and successful in their specific trade and profession.
From a young age I was immersed in large and complicated construction projects. Everything from heavy equipment operations, building homes, extensive remodels, metal fabrication and Automotive restorations. I pursued a formal education thru a 5-year Sheet metal apprenticeship program while working in the trades, as well as a college education with an emphasis on welding and material forming.
Over the years I have specialized in high- stakes projects with tight deadlines and costly consequences, projects where precision is key and the margin for error is razor thin.
Hi, i'm Michael Kingsley, owner of iron spade construction & welding

As my career evolved, I found my calling in specialty projects, precision fabrication, estimating and leadership. 3D CAD modeling was a self taught skill that enabled me to bring projects to life in a faster more accurate way, while also maintaining an eye for the project to “look” a specific way. As a lifelong consumer of custom car and fine home-building magazines the desire for a project to have an element of visual beauty as well as functionality has always been top priority.
In 2021 I decided to step into self-employment by formally opening the IRON SPADE brand. I was motivated by desire for personal growth. I grew up in a family of self-built entrepreneurs, I know self-employment is never the easiest or most predictable path, however I do believe it is the most rewarding.
Every project is an opportunity to innovate and I'm always looking forward to the next challenge.
My goal is simple: to consistently elevate the quality of work I produce and to help those I lead reach their fullest potential.
