Highly recommend that anyone looking to build or remodel speak with Rosemary before engaging services with their contractor. Her industry insight and construction management are invaluable!

I have known Rosemary Swierk for the past five years. She is a person of integrity, devotion to her craft and an incredible resource for me. She has always been extremely professional and dedicated to her business and I consider her a mentor. Her business has always been run efficiently and with incredible dedication to the industry. When dealing with Rosemary you will always get an honest assessment, a fair discussion and eventually a true friend. I am honored to call her and the entire Direct Steel team a friend

I highly recommend Direct Steel as they helped my business purchase and remodel our new building. They have tremendous experience not just in the construction but helping find the right building, coordinating with our realtor, and looking out for our best interests. They are reasonably priced but you need to look past the money because the time they save you is huge. The amount of money they have saved us with the purchase negotiation and throughout the project was huge. Being connected to an architect is a benefit as well. A great company

It was a pleasure working with Direct Steel and Construction, LLC. They were extremely professional and knowledgeable in their performance of their work and courteous and helpful in the completion of the work that we had to perform. Many companies are not like this. Many companies do not care. Direct Steel and Construction is just the opposite. They care!! Thank you very much Direct Steel and Construction, LLC.

o The communications throughout the project are second to none. With a daily onsite manager, I NEVER found myself looking for answers, rather the onsite manager was approaching me daily with updates/changes before a question would present itself. This was truly a TEAM effort. Knowing the Direct team was handling our rebuild relieved an inordinate amount of stress so I could stay focused on my job at hand and not left to worry about the building of the new terminal. I could not recommend Direct Steel, LLC enough. Having managed numerous facilities over the years from very small up to multibillion dollar operations, I could not imagine hiring anyone else for my properties/construction needs as nothing is too small, or too large for these folks.” ~Craig Eugene – The Kenan Advantage Group

Rosemary is a client of the IL Procurement Technical Assistance Center at the Women's Business Development Center, and we work together as she develops and implements her government contracting strategies. Rosemary is a knowledgeable business owner that maximizes the resources, tools, connections, and advice to successfully pursue and win contracts. She is focused, highly capable, persistent, and strongly committed to delivering top-notch work. She also readily shares her information with other small business owners, and has graciously spoken at many events as a subject matter expert on building and maintaining a strong business. Because of her commitment to delivering above and beyond contract requirements, she continues to sustain and fuel growth.

We have been fortunate enough to do a number of post construction cleans for Direct Steel and Direct Design over the years. They have their projects well thought out and orchestrated. They give us great notice of when the job will be done. So we can schedule well and do our job in a professional manner. They are not a "last minute-rush to get it done" company. They do quality work and they are one of the most professional companies we have worked for in our 28 years in business. Working with them makes us look good. They are great.
