We don’t cut corners.

We listen carefully to your goals, provide thoughtful recommendations, then start building only after you agree on a design that leaves nothing to chance.

A brief history:

1998 – John Hodgett begins Quality Tool Service inside a garage in Trego, WI, offering heat treating services to local businesses. A year later, he started providing machine services as well as building stamping tools.

2003 – Quickly growing, QTS moves to a 6,000 sq. ft. facility in Spooner, WI. With the additional room, QTS finds new ways to serve businesses and starts designing and building production fixtures, especially focusing on weld fixtures which later becomes the core element of the business.

2007 – QTS moves to a new 18,000 sq. ft. facility in Shell Lake, WI to accommodate the demand in business. From then, QTS keeps expanding their service area and increasing their capabilities by investing in both additional equipment and skilled people.

2012 – QTS purchases an additional adjacent building adding 7,700 sq. ft. of office and manufacturing space. This allows QTS to further expand its services and capabilities. The additional office space creates room for growth in the applications and design departments.

Today – Quality Tool Service is a valuable member of its community and serves business all across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Looking to the future, QTS will further expand capabilities and continually work to help manufacturers solve their problems through proven processes driven by talented people who have a desire to serve people well.
