    "For Super Bowl 52 in Minneapolis, MN our clients wanted to build an ice rink in Nicollet Mall for their Super Bowl Live activation. After reaching out to the MN Super Bowl Host Committee, and multiple ice rink companies in the area, everyone told us it couldn’t be done for the budget and time allotted. Luckily, we came into contact with Mike and his team who were willing to take on the challenge. Approvals and permits are under a magnifying glass when the Super Bowl comes to town, but because of Mike and his relationships in the MN area we were able to successfully host free ice-skating rink for NFL fans. Overall, we had an amazing experience with Modern Mechanical and would recommend them for any ice rink needs."

    “We worked with Modern Mechanical to replace the Ice Floor at the Knoxville Civic Auditorium and Coliseum. The installation went as planned and Modern Mechanical provided quality work. I wanted to give a Shout Out to Modern Mechanical for some repair work that occurred post installation and at no Fault of Minnesota Ice. I personally reached out to Modern Mechanical for some guidance on how to best make a repair and they immediately stepped up and created step by step videos on how to make the repair and provided the tools and equipment necessary for our team to make the repair. A good quality company is not just the product or work but the service provided after the fact. I want to thank Modern Mechanical for taking that extra step to help us!”

    "It was a pleasure to work with Modern Mechanical the past two years for our “Skate the Star” rink that we had them custom create for us to generate funds to support the Boys and Girls Club of Minnesota. The location of the rink was pretty unique and was located at the front door to our facility, which did present some challenges. Modern Mechanical and their staff were able to adapt to our surroundings creating our rink within our required schedule at the same time maintaining a flawless guest experience. They were able to take it from our idea to a fully operating rink, including skate rental, ice management, snow removal, and ice building each day. Our experiences with Modern Mechanical were great and their professionalism was greatly appreciated."

    -Eric Atkins - Senior Project Manager (Mall of America)

    "McGough Construction had the pleasure of working with Modern Mechanical on the Block 9 Plaza Project in Fargo, ND. During this project Modern Mechanical always made themselves available to answer questions and help coordinate the site work ahead of them arriving onsite. Once crews were onsite they were even more helpful in working around the other site work that was going on and adjusting their schedule/plan to best suit the project overall and not just their own schedule. Modern Mechanical and their team was nothing but professional from the bidding process through the completion of the project and beyond. I would highly recommend Modern Mechanical to anyone that is thinking of hiring them."
