OUR HISTORY

135 Years
Strong

In 1890, two brothers—Jesse and Lester Williams—began making their first plastering trowels in their newly established machine and repair shop. Word of the Williams’ superior tools quickly spread, and they built a company that would become recognized worldwide as the standard of quality. Although Jesse and Lester likely never imagined how large MARSHALLTOWN would become, they’d be happy to know our driving principle remains the same; we offer the BEST products at a FAIR price.
