This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I've been getting my hands dirty with metal for over 30 years. Everything is custom handmade by ONLY me (no employees or crew. just me). I have 10 years of experience woking with wood. I have a passion for making dreams a reality. Clients give me an idea, sketch, or specific list of needs. I work on a drawing to scale, and once approved I start on the project.
I would say my artistic creativity and blacksmithing skills are my strongest points, since I've been working the longest with them. I let my projects speak for themselves. I am a perfectionist and my own worst critic. 90% of my metal projects are mild steel, but I do work with other metals and any welding process.
When it comes to wood in my projects, I try to use repurposed wood whenever possible, but I'm not limited by it. Let's brainstorm, crunch some numbers, and make one of a kind custom pieces.
A guide to the best items from the best makers and the stories behind them.
Vickie Loftis
For Vickie's metal panel / Metal DoorLoved the final product. It took a while to get it, but it was the beginning of COVID so understandable.
Eric Fier
For Eric's swing tableThis was -- without a doubt -- an absolutely wonderful experience. Xavier was extremely meticulous, detail oriented, and gifted in his craftsmanship. He designed for me a swing table with a level of artistry and precision that exceeded my expectations. Not only was his pricing fair and reasonable, he literally drove the completed project from Laredo, Texas to Atlanta, Georgia to deliver and install it. There were some understandable delays in the completion of the work -- but it was very much worth the wait. I found Xavier to be personable, professional, and super easy to work with. I hope to use him again and again for future creative projects...
Ryan Polk
For Ryan's Dining TableAwesome job on my table top!
Scott Bustabad
For Walnut & Steel Extra Tall Bar StoolsBy far the best experience I have ever had with any furniture product. Quality craftmanship, cares about his work. Finished project ahead of schedule and delivered it himself. Quick responses in all communication. And seemed like an all around good dude. Will order multiple pieces in the future
Brian Drolet
For Industrial Conference TableAllison Green
For Fireplace Screen DoorsI am not a fan of most fireplace screens, so I spent a lot of time looking for something that was simple but beautiful. Once I found Xavier, I knew I loved the look of his custom screens, but ours turned out even better than I ever imagined. It fit perfectly in the opening and instantly gave our fireplace a clean, finished look. We had a chimney sweep come just after we received it, and he wanted to know where it came from. He was very impressed with the quality and craftsmanship, and he sees them all day long.
michael stepanovich

DOUGLAS NOBLE
For Reproduction of antique hanging "betty lamp"-We are VERY happy with the job done by Mr. Villela! He took on the project when none of the metal crafts-persons in our area showed any interest. He was very responsive to any questions we had. We would highly recommend him for any similar projects, i.e.,metal antique reproductions. He mixed his skill with an artistic flair. We were also very impressed by the customer support by the CustomMade customer service team!
Andy Rossini
For Custom Pull Out Cutting Board Made To OrderHi All - this is a review of Dirty Metal Secrets who custom-made a kitchen cutting board to fit into existing slot under kitchen counter top. First of all, I have to admit knowing nothing of how to describe what I needed. Once the scope of work was complete, Xavier delivered. The board and juice tray are sized perfectly. I would recommend DMS for your cutting board needs. Andy
Tim Black
For Steel GrillThis was done in excellent timing and exactly how I wanted it. I will definitely doe business here again if I need anything. . Thank you , Tim Black
Melinda Dame Christensen
For New Cathedral For Raleigh, North CarolinaThe product that Xavier made for me to give to my friend is absolutely beautiful. I would not change one thing. The only thing that I wish we could’ve done better was communicate more and if he could have made a couple of deadlines. Otherwise, it was a great experience.
Mara Silber
For TrayFinal product is exactly as I requested. He was timely, kept me in the loop, and it came out great! We would definitely use him again and plan to.
Ken Chen
For Workspace Long DeskXavier is everything you could ask from a maker: patient, friendly and professional. The desk came perfectly as I envisioned. Xavier actually remade the desk top when he found out the first one didn’t have perfectly even colors. He even delivered the desk himself all the way from Texas to California because no delivery company is willing to take such a big item. To be honest, he exceeded all my expectations. I love the final product and I like the way we worked together. I’m pretty sure I’ll go back to him whenever I have a new project.
Jutta Degener
For Jutta's shelfI'm very thrilled with the metal-and-walnut shelf Xavier built. It came out exactly like I hoped and looks utterly badass installed. To get us there, Xavier put up with late specification changes and anxiety about being able to control the shipping. He sent a ton of photos, answered questions, and made suggestions. He was easygoing, responsive, and patient. Awesome job.
Margo Burns
For Pot RackI needed a pot rack for a large space. It needed to be built a certain way. I’m very happy with the finished product. Lots of emails to design and get it right. He did a great job.
Jason Lea
For Reclaimed Wood and Steel StoolsXavier did an excellent job on my project! He was very professional and communicated with me throughout the entire process! I had very high expectations for this project. He delivered a product that was above and beyond my expectations:). I will be reaching out to Xavier in the future about other projects for my home. I highly recommend using him for any type of upgrade for your home or work space!
Debra Fuller
For Reclaimed Wood And Iron Display Shelf On WheelsI’m so pleased with the workmanship, ease of communication and delivery of my beautiful shelf unit. He was in touch with me regularly along the entire process. Truly very talented individual and Xavier listened to exactly what I wanted. It’s perfection!! I highly recommend and will definitely have future pieces made by Xavier.
Richard Anthony
