Antonio Irizarry.
Steele Works is the metalworking side of the Irizarry family business, run day to day by Antonio Irizarry right here in Hermitage, Missouri. From mobile welding and trailer repairs to custom builds and fencing, Antonio is involved from the first conversation to the finished job.
When you call Steele Works, you deal directly with the person doing the work — no middlemen, no runaround, no corporate layers. The goal is simple: understand what the job needs, build it right, and leave you with something made for real use.
Talk with Antonio

From the first look to the last weld.
The work stays personal because Antonio stays close to every job. Whether the repair happens in the field or the fabrication happens in the shop, the same care goes into making sure it fits, functions, and holds up.
He started out helping neighbors fix equipment and build gates around Hickory County. Word spread because the work held up. Today Steele Works still runs on that same reputation — show up, do what you said you would do, and stand behind it.
Local, honest, and built to last.
Straight talk
We listen first. You explain the problem or the project, we look it over, and we tell you what it actually takes to fix or build it — no padded quotes, no surprise add-ons.
Real welding
Every cut, fit, and weld is done with the job’s actual use in mind. Farm equipment, trailers, gates, and structures around here take a beating, so we build them to take it.
Community roots
This is home. We’re not a franchise passing through — we’re neighbors who want the work to hold up because we’ll see you at the store, at the gas station, and at church on Sunday.
For farms, job sites, and property owners nearby.
Steele Works handles the metal projects that keep Hickory County moving: broken brackets on a dozer blade, a trailer cage that needs rebuilding, a gate that won’t sag, railings that need to be solid, and one-off fabrications nobody stocks on a shelf.
If it’s steel and it’s giving you trouble — or if you’ve got an idea that needs to become real — Antonio and the crew are ready to look at it.
