Gate repairs and mobile welding

This is one of the best companies I have worked with in several years. They take pride in their work, their communication is amazing, and their pricing is fair. We had a lot of questions about our gate, as we were removing part of our block wall to install an entirely new gate, as well as replacing an old gate, and they always took the time to respond to any questions we had. They went out of their way to drop samples off to us, they recommended a fantastic mason who could help with our block wall removal/repair, and they created and installed absolutely beautiful gates. Each member of the team we worked with - Araceli, Alex, and David - were all very professional, kind, and patient. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone looking for great customer service and beautiful gates!

If I could give 10 stars I would. Alex and his team installed a new rv and pedestrian gate with automation, it came out looking and working great. Alex was super helpful and courteous. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking for a new gate or gate opener. 10 star service!

It was time to renovate our RV gate. The wood slates we're warped and faded and just look tired. I called Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding and setup an installation appointment. I made the appointment a month out and they sent me a reminder email a day or two before the installation. They also texted me as well. Alex and David arrived on time and answered any questions that I had. When they were done you wouldn't have known they were there, but the work was finished. I love the look of the gate and their work is top notch. I would recommend Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding to anyone with an ugly RV gate.

Alex and Michael arrived on time at 8 am July 13, 2020 to put kickplate under my RV gate to raise it to the level that I added onto my block wall years ago, which is another 13 inches.  Alex is particularly cheerful and upbeat.  

I was feeling sorry for them that they had to work in 118 degree heat, but they had their setup, which really impressed me, that I took this picture.  A large EZ up with misters!!  I never seen any worker bring such a thing.  

Gate Repairs was willing to match the $350 bid that I got from several other gate businesses (maybe even this same business)  several years ago, but never acted on it.  I did not tell them that my lowest bid this year was $400, but they wrote back that they were willing to match the $350 I got from the past.  I was elated.  I got a bid as high as $1200 from one gate company, and that was only if I put kickplate on top of the gate not at the bottom!

So make sure you get several bids, folks, cos they could be $1000 apart.  

It was hard to get bids on this project because the other gate companies only make new gates, or they do not come out to the job site to install what they make in the shop, due to not being licensed to do installations on site.  

At first they welded the plate on top of  the frame, not inside the frame.    I didn't like that at all, and they already painted it.  They said they didn't weld the plate inside the frame so it looks same on both sides, cos the plate has a tendency to warp.  It is such a little area, like 1 foot high.  I said you could put enough welds in it, even all the way around, not just spot welding here and there, so the plate won't warp.

So they took apart what they did. on that one side, and put metal plate inside the frame, and got my approval.  Sooooo much better!  
Otherwise I would have looked at that plate on the outside of the frame (like a piece of cardboard taped there) and had bad feelings every time I look at it, and for years.  Alex said I just want you to be happy.  I said I was happy with the changes they made.  He said some people like the panel on this side, some like it on the other side.  I said Well you didn't ask me first.  I told him I think they should have asked me.  Maybe they will ask people from now on to avoid having the cost of time and materials to do it over.  .  

I don't know why I put off this gate modification for so long, but I love the Covid quarantine   I got home projects done during this time that I been putting off for 16 years!  

While working, Alex told me they could replace existing wood slats, which  too are too small  for the opening (cos lazy person, not me, buys them ready cut that way, no need to rip each slat) .  Existing wooden slats leaves large gapes in metal frame that people could see me skinny dip in my pool easily   Wood has to be custom ripped to fit between metal, so people cannot see through.  Gate Repairs will paint the wood for me, too.  Alex said he will call Areceli to give me a quote for that.  

On July 30, a different person named Adam showed up with the same Michael who came with Alex on July 18, to replace my gate slats with wider boards so the 1/4 opening on each side no longer exists between the board and the metal frame grid.

They stained the wood at their shop with the Behr Redwood stain 502 I told them to get, and cut it onsite and installed.  Cost $560 after a $100 previous customer discount.

I noticed paint drops and overspray on my brick paving and the concrete.  But Adam insisted that their paint (in spray can) does not make drops like that, but there was also 25 inches overspray you can see in the photo.  Adam said he and Michael painted in the alley, not where the drips are.  No one coulda done that but the gate workers, which Adam said could have been done by Alex last time.  They did not have the right solvent to remove the paint drops so I got my nail polish remover, which well, didn't get it all out, but made a difference.  Areceli at the office both called and emailed me offering for someone to come out again with the right solvent to remove the paint from my pavers, after the guys told the office they did not have the means to remove the paint.

After they left I worked on it for several days with remaining nail polish remover.  I got it out enough so it isn't as noticeable that I could live with, so they do not have to come back again.  But that is why I give them 5 stars, because they were conscientious to come out again to make it right.  

I tell you I really like Alex, the company has a big asset in his upbeat, enthusiastic, cheerful, yes and  I just want you to be happy personality.  I felt Adam was the opposite.  

Here are pictures of raised gate, neat latches they put on free, and their impressive work tent with fans and misters.

We give them 5 stars. We reached out to them to design and install our front gate. Their customer service, professionalism and timelines has been superb. We highly recommend them!

Ummm Alex might as well have been Tony Stark with an Iron Man suit welding with the glowing orbs shooting out of each of his palms.   What just happened!!!?  
He came and professionally cut, leveled, and welded new hinges to both our side gate and Double RV gate faster than it has taken me to type this review.  The welds.. if you know anything about welds - are as CLEAN as I've ever seen.  The gaps.. perfect.  
He also installed gate supports into our block wall ... and those were perfectly done as well.  I would consider yourself lucky to have stumbled across this humble looking company in yelp because whatever your job is - it's about to be made perfect.  Get ready to feel relieved.  Thank you Alex and Team.

They end price was the same as there quote. They called ahead to let me know when they were in route the cleaned all there mess. We had them do a little demo and extend one of our RV gates. Would use them again

Absolutely the best! I tried to contact multiple companies for fence repair and this was the only place with great quick communication. They came out for a full evaluation and really listened to my needs.

They repaired a multitude of problems all at once- new gate, new poles, a chain link repair in one spot and an overall realignment.

The work was done faster than estimated and at an amazing price!

Great job and friendly. Also he was willing to come back for adjustments!. He was here at the time and day he said he was going to be here

Last August, we called several gate repair companies, and no one even returned our call. Then we called Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding! They made the whole process simple and easy. The price seemed high until we saw the finished work. I thought we were just getting new stained wood slats installed in our large gate for that price. Instead, they took the gates off, painted all the metal frame pieces, installed the new stained wood slats, rehung the gate so it wasn't sagging, and drilled out the hole for the cane bolt! The gate looked better than when it was brand new. Almost a year later, it still looks better than when it was new. Today workers from Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding came to fix our other two gates, and once again I am so impressed with their professionalism  and the finished project. Highly recommend this company!

After living for years with a subpar gate installation, the wind finally broke one of my alley gates! I wish I had known gate repairs back then!

It's no wonder these guys are busy!  They are courteous and professional.  My quote was completely explained to me and while I did have to wait to get the gate repaired, Alex, the tech, was fantastic.  I have some other gate issues that I will be calling Gate Repairs for.

Like I said, they are busy!  So, expect to wait a bit for your repair.  But when it gets done, it'll be done right!!  Thanks Gate Repairs.  More business coming soon!

This review is LONG overdue.  We purchased home in spring of 2019 and found our side gates in bad shape and unable to latch.  We expected to have to trash and replace. However, that wasn't the case and our existing gates were fully refurbished. So happy to have full functioning gates that look fantastic. Highly recommend.

The whole team at Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding was so pleasant to work with. Communication, information and their work was impressive. Araceli communicated our different choices and the related price differences for our gate repair. A team member verified and approved the plan, everything agreed on was listed detailed in writing. We knew stucco work is not covered but referral was given. At the end, very minimal stucco work has to be done. We received appointment reminders, were informed when the team was on their way and payment was easily done online. The team reinstalling the gates did such great work. Our gates look like new. Thank you!

Walk around my yard and saw my steel fence falling over. Looked on Yelp and found this company. Sent photos of my fence.  
Prompt courteous reply and set up a service call.
All fixed, very fair pricing and done very professionally.
I would highly recommend!
Thank You.

Alex arrived and quickly repaired my gate - remounting it to the block wall. The gate opens and closes smooth as butter now (none of that nonsense of lifting the gate to line it up properly). I look forward to working with them in the future to replace or modify the current gate (adding a handle and lock). Araceli was great to communicate with for the gate repair.

Thanks!

This is an exceptional business. Alex is very good to work with. They say what they will do and they do what they say. Very reliable and very good work.

These guys were great to work with. They were professional and responded quickly to any questions that arose during the process. Beyond that they were always right on time to get the job done. Highly recommend them for any gate work that you might need done.

They're did an amazing job on repairing and refurbishing our gate. They are very prompt and quick to respond. Excellent customer service. We will definitely hire them again!

I am very happy with my new rv gate.  Alex did an excellent job replacing my old one.  Pricing was competitive and I would use them again or recommend to someone else .

I called other companies to fix the gate and 2 companies said we will replace it when only one side was damaged. Aracely asked to take some pictures and she sent me a quote and the tech came out and fixed in less than 2 hours. Great service on the office and the tech.

This company was fantastic to work with on every level.  From first contact, to scheduling, getting the estimate, working through the details, pricing, and installation - it was seamless.  It took a little bit to get on the calendar (which was disclosed up front), but was well worth it.  Our gates were the neighborhood eyesore, but now they are a great first impression!

They repaired an entry gate and a set of double driveway gates (iron and composite).  The iron was badly rusted in many areas, and the boards were a weathered, beat up casualty of Arizona summers and sprinkler systems.  I know sections had to be cut out and replaced, but you can not tell.  They look like a set of new gates, and they swing so smoothly.  They also replaced the decrepit old handles and locks.  The crew arrived on time, texted before they got here, and re-installation was quick.  Would very happily do business with this company again.

We had a big mix up because of Cox. The estimate didn't get through on my email. Araceli got right back to me and the job is scheduled. This are the only company willing to do this kind of service. I'll include pics when it's done. !

I started out just wanting a quote, but Norma was so welcoming and easy to deal with was a no brainer to hire this company. It did take about a month to get them scheduled, but well worth the wait. Very happy with them, they showed up on the dot of 10 am, took just a few hours, they did  not bother me with needless questions, just got to the job. They were smiling and a happy bunch. Also very safe with the masks.

Our side gate was dragging the last few inches before closing. They provided a quote over Yelp and came out within the week to complete the job. The were very affordable compared to other quotes we received. Alex was on time, polite, and completed the job with no issues. Would highly recommend them!

This company was prompt and courteous with communication and gave by far the best quote of those I requested. Even dropped the price when certain materials weren't needed.  I wouldn't hesitate to call them, they clearly care about doing a good job and having happy customers.

We had our gate refurbished, they did a great job at a good price. Everyone we dealt with was polite and courteous. We had an issue a few months later and they quickly came back out and fixed it with no issues. Great customer service!!!

Araceli, Alex and everyone else at Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding are so attentive, receptive and wonderful to work with. They are truly an asset to have to serve our community and their workmanship is phenomenal!  I would highly HIGHLY recommend them for anyone looking for their gate repair or any mobile welding service. God Bless and hope this review helps in your decision making.

Professional, went above and beyond to repair a gate that wouldn't close. Wore masks. Great technicians!

WOW! If only all contractors were like this business, from start to finish, it was a great experience. The office staff and scheduling were pleasant and easy to deal with, they showed up early for both the quote and the job but let me know they were going to be early. I couldn't afford the entire job so they were willing to do a smaller portion which I really appreciated. They did such a good job fixing my fence, I could not be happier. I absolutely recommend and would use them again.

There is a reason that this company has five stars.  Alex, who i think is the owner, does great work.
I found the company on Yelp and called them.  They had me text pictures of my fence to them and they gave me a quote in writing.
When Alex arrived we reviewed the work to be done, discussed how it would be done and confirmed the price.
He performed the work and actually did a bit extra at no charge.  He was timely in the work and very professional.
Two thumbs up for this company.

Alex is the best. Very humble and works with integrity. He even gives pointers on where and how you can save money. I've used this company twice now, one for my garage and another for my gate. My garage opens so quietly it's amazing and my gate is so sturdy that I now longer fear my dog busting it down and it even opens without any difficulty, which is something I haven't had in awhile. I will be calling them again to install another because this company is amazing.

Overall good price and job on my project. I highly recommend Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding.

Excellent work and reasonable prices. It doesn't get better than that!!! We feel so lucky we found this business.

This company has excellent communication- he was honest and didn't try to sell me on a new fence ( which I was expecting to pay for ) he said all I needed were new posts . He was reliable, called immediately after I requested a call and even bumped my appt up so I can get the repair done sooner because my home was hitting the market !

Excellent service for a great price! I cannot recommend enough. Thank you, Alex for everything!

I can't say enough good things about working with Alex. The work and craftsmanship is second to none.

I bought my home with 3 very bad looking gates, with one gate leaning so much that it was difficult to close. Alex came out and replaced my gate slats, repainted the gate, and welded the gate so that it will now close and operate like an actual gate.

The gates are beautiful and look brand new. You can review the three photos of the gates vs a photo of what they looked like before (I can't load more than 4 pics)

His pricing was very fair and he responded quickly to any questions. He is very friendly and did not pressure me to make a decision when he provided an estimate. I will absolutely do business with him again. If you have awful looking gates like I did, I would recommend that you work with him!

They saved us hundreds of dollars repairing our gate so we didn't have to replace it. They set up our appointment quickly. Alex was efficient and reasonably priced. He did a quality job with professionalism and a friendly manner. We would highly recommend this business and will use them again if the need arises.

I have never written a review ever on Yelp, however after the great job and service I received from Alex and his staff I feel as if this is the least I can do. Alex is a very personable person who will go the extra mile to make sure that you are completely satisfied with their service. Do yourself a favor and call them when you need your gate restored / repaired.

Great price for great work done. Was very knowledgeable and experienced and professional. I am so happy with the work done and I am glad I followed my instinct after receiving multiple estimates- some of which either seemed totally unreliable or wildly out of my price range. Would definitely call again for any similar work needed.

Called Alex yesterday about a large side gate that needed the pin welded back on and also needed the gate rehung with stronger anchors as the old anchors were coming out and the gate was sagging.

Alex showed up the next day right on time and proved to be an amazing one-man team. I can't believe how quick he was. In 30 minutes he had placed stronger anchors, leveled the gate perfectly, metal buffed the pin mount, and welded it back on. I love how smooth and easy the gate is now.

Five stars all the way!

Great pricing, customer service, and workmanship. Alex came out and quoted me for a new gate, helped me with a contact for masonry I needed, and made adjustments to my quote same day when I requested to make some changes. I highly recommend them and found them initially on the Yelp site.

Thank you Alex for a quality job in rehabbing my gate.  You solved for the odd gate dimensions, used quality products, and were timely.  It was a pleasure doing business with you!

I called Gate Repairs and Mobile welding after my gatepost fell during the recent hail storm. It was a very stressful situation because I had a very limited amount of time to get it repaired. From the moment I spoke to Araceli, who answered my call, my stress started to subside. She was very calm, professional and overall very kind and patient. She worked with me to get a quote as quickly as possible. To my surprise and great pleasure Alex showed up as promised. He has a very calming personality. He immediately went to work and dId a great job. I never felt like he was rushing. He also took time to explain to me exactly what he did. I look forward to having Alex, with Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding complete my next project.

UPDATE: On 12/17/19 Alex returned to complete another project for me and as usual he did an amazing job. Again I look forward to him completing my next project. As long as he does business as he currently does he will continue to be successful. If you're looking for an honest dependable company that does great work, you should check out Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding.

Really the best experience! From requesting a quote through Yelp to the day if repair. We received a quick response for the quote and appointment time. Thank you for being honest and providing great service.

Alex responded to my initial message straightaway and clearly communicated with me from the first message until the gate repair was complete.  He arrived on time and finished the repair in a timely manner. His pricing is fair and the completed work exceeded my expectations. I'll be changing the locks and fasteners on my other gates around the property and Alex will be my very first choice for these future projects. I highly recommend Alex for any gate repair or remodel efforts.

Alex was a pleasure to work with.  We were not able to install a gate due to issues beyond my (and his) control, but his quoted price was fantastic and he was very responsive when contacted through the app.  He is our first choice if we end up needing a gate in the future.

Alex did a great job installing two electronic keypads to both gates on the side of my house. He was able to weld the locking mechanisms on and also took the time to program and explain how everything works. He also replaced a few wood slats that were broken. I appreciate that he went above my expectations! I've heard many compliments so far and and love the way my gates turned out. Thank you so much!

Alex Lucero is fantastic. He replied right away when I first asked for an estimate, unlike several other companies I contacted. And he was responsive all the way through this process.

Our gate is very solid and beautiful. He paid attention to detail, and did not leave until we were sure every keypad work properly, along with the wifi controllers.  Then they carted away our old, ugly gate, and we were left with the beautiful finished product for our home.  They even included a free magnetic locking system!

I highly recommend Gate Repairs & Mobile Welding.

My gate was off it's hinges and wouldn't close. After multiple quotes I went with Alex because of his reasonable price and his suggestion that the gate was salvageable and didn't actually need to be replaced like others had suggested. Alex was great and I would recommend.

Would absolutely recommend! I emailed for a quote on yelp along with 2 other businesses. (Other 2 businesses-1 didn't even respond to request for a quote -2nd one got back days later). Araceli got back to me right away (mind you on a Saturday evening). The price was very reasonable. She answered all of questions. My gate was refurbished however it looks brand new literally! They are awesome!

Alex was awesome and really friendly. My gate works better than it did before! Very reasonable pricing and the quality of work is great!

Thank you, Gate Repair!!  We had our Sun City metal grill front fencing repaired. The bottom rails had been rusted out cuz of over spraying of the irrigation system over the years. Juan took care of us even returning to make adjustments we felt were needed. This company was fair and responsive. Call them, if needed.

I had called Gate Repairs and mobile welding for help fixing a gate. I told them I had a time limit because I was leaving. I spoke with them originally on Sunday and they said they could come out Wednesday, close to my deadline. On Wednesday, they called and canceled the appointment because there was forecasted rain and said they'd come out the next day. No call, no show. I sat around waiting. I texted them and asked why they never showed or called and they said Sorry we can see you next Friday.  Really unprofessional service and a complete waste of a week.

Alex was awesome! Provided a  reasonable quote for our gate repair on the same day Friday afternoon. Came out following Monday to align and weld the gate and even threw in some decorative scrolls to add some appeal! Very courteous and professional. Also takes care of garage repairs! Will use Alex again!

We cannot rave enough about Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding! They were not able to order the slats in our original size so instead they improvised and had to strip our gate frame down to a blank square and removed all of the vertical frame bars just to make the smaller slats/panels fit. They welded new support frames horizontally across the gate, repainted our old hinges and frame and even relocated the latch and lock for a smoother fit. On top of that, they helped clean up and remove yard debris which prevented me from opening the gate fully. Adam and Michael were so kind, caring and very talented and they obviously take pride in their work. The cost was very reasonable considering the extra labor involved. It's hard to find decent, honest, trustworthy and fair contractors these days! And they also guarantee their workmanship for a year. If you are in need of a new gate or a refurbish, give them a call you won't be disappointed, highly recommend! We chose composite cedarwood for the win since there is no maintenance and the composite should last a lifetime. I never thought I would be so excited about our new gate. Thank you Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding for doing such a fantastic job!

Alex did an awesome job fixing our RV gate. He explained every detail on how he would fix it and went out of his to make sure we don't have any more problems!  Great customer service and very timely!  Thanks Alex!  I will be definitely be referring you to all my friends for any gate needs!

i called to get an estimate and both the owner & girlfriend/wife both came to the estimate i'm disabled so i asked if they could help hang some security lights and drill a few holes for me and the owner said no problem (he would do it free but i was going to give him something anyway for doing that for me) he said it would only take a few minutes and he would not charge me. so we agreed on a price but when they sent me the invoice to approve before .. to do the work there was an extra $100.00 to hang 2 security lights.. so i canceled...i hate surprise changes....what i'm saying is the $100.00 for the security lights were never mentioned in our conversation until the invoice was sent so that was just an unexpected shock..that's all i'm saying. i'm just a disabled woman that needs to know where every dollar is spent due im on a budget.

Highly recommend!  Called to request a quote to repair my RV gate.  Came out the next day, called thirty minutes prior to arrival.  Quoted me on the spot a very reasonable price.  Asked about additional options and Alex said I could do them but it would not be of any benefit to strengthen the gate.  He basically told me that I could do it but it would be a waste of money.  He made the repairs on the spot and had my gate better than I have ever had it in about an hour.

Alex came out quickly, assessed my gate damage and made the repair that day.  He left the area in order just as he found it and even cleared out some post guides for free.  His price was a fraction of other bids.  I'd recommend this company to anyone.

This is my first review on Yelp but I wanted to make sure that Alex was rewarded for his outstanding service. I contacted him about a weld on my fence holding the pin in place that had broken causing my fence not to work. He responded in a quick and timely manner with a quote. The next day we set up a time for the following day and he was here on time. He answered all my questions and had the work done within 30 minutes. He even went above and beyond the work I requested by also adding a stronger weld on another piece of the gate at no extra charge. Thanks again for your hard and honest work!

Alex came out the same day I called, which was a Saturday, to repair my gate. My gate was opened too far and a weld broke and it was also dented. Ales pounded it out to straighten it and installed the new bracket and welded it on the spot. After touching up the paint, it looks better now than it did when it was new. I hope I don't need any gate repairs or iron work done in the future but if I do I will only call Alex to get it done the correct way the first time. Very dependable, does quality work and I would use him and recommend him without hesitation.

There are not enough positive adjectives to describe this business, the owners, their workers and the overall job they did for us.  They completely rebuilt our RV gate and it looks amazing!  Alex, the owner, took the time to listen to our needs and made sure he understood how we wanted things done.  The end result was more than we could have imagined - not only is it beautiful but the way it was constructed was over and above our expectations.  Not only is the workmanship fantastic, but the actual working together, their communication, their professionalism...all of that was also over and above our expectations.  From the time we made contact, to the day he came out, which was only a couple days later ON TIME! Then came out again for additional measurements and details (again, SO VERY professional) and then the actual installation, was a few weeks later.  And during that time that our gate was being built, pictures of the progress were sent to us the entire time.  Again, not enough positive adjectives to describe this business.

I recently contacted Alex to have my RV gate fixed after a landscaping company took it down and didn't reinstall it properly, ever since then it would blow completely off the wall in the storms- he responded to my message the next morning, came out that day- and completed the job the same day at an extremely reasonable price! Couldn't recommend anyone more!!!

I had an excellent experience today! Called for a quote and got an immediate answer. He was there at my house within 30 minutes and gave me great quote. He began working immediately and had the gate repaired within 45 minutes. I highly recommend this company!

Had my gate re-hung with a new j-hook and the pin replaced and welded  and the gate straightened by Alex and Steve.  They did a fantastic job!  I would recommend them to anyone.  Alex explained what was needed and what he was going to fix, and it works perfect.  Awesome job!

Amazing work. I called to have my RV gate fixed after it fell over. Quick response and good price. Alex came out and did such an amazing job, nice to meet and have someone who takes pride in his work. Alex even anchored the pole as it should have been and put in the pipes for the RV gate rods to sit in. Will definitely use Alex for any future gate needs and refer to others in need.

Alex is a great guy. He gave us the best quote and even better service on repairing the gate. I would recommend his repair service to everybody!

Alex was great! He replied quickly, gave me a fair quote, and was able to come out that week to install new planks on my backyard gate to replace the old wooden ones I had. The gate looks wonderful and he even identified that the latch was broken and fixed it for me at no additional charge. I would highly recommend Alex and Gate Repairs and Mobile Welding!
