Ignacio responded quickly to my request. He was able to come in less than a week, his price was reasonable and he did an excellent job. He was very professional, prompt, and made time to answer my questions about my other gates

So very pleased with the work done by Ignacio from Tried and True Welding ,we were dealing with a damaged steel gate and didn’t know where to turn because we didn’t need a new gate we needed a repair. Ignacio came over to evaluate and accepted the job to repair the gate hinge but beyond that he suggested and implemented a solution to stabilize and distribute the weight of the heavy gate extending the life of the old gate. He did a masterful job and we highly recommend Ignacio and this local company. Outstanding work!

First, I love finding excellent quality professionals in the Thumbtack community. I have never been disappointed. Tried and True Welding and Fabrication proved to be another outstanding choice for the work we needed to have done for the following reasons: 1. Prompt initial response to my inquiry. 2. Ignacio came out within our requested timeframe for a free cost estimate of the work 3. The quote was reasonable (we’d already checked around) 4. He returned to do the work on the scheduled date right on time 5. He was responsive when I texted him a question…we appreciated how quickly he responded 6. He worked quickly and steadily finishing the work the same day 7. My husband and I are completely satisfied with his work—very professional and our broken gate looks like new and even better—the new hinges he welded into place are bigger and stronger than the original ones were and we’ll never have to repair it again. We recommend Tried and True Welding and Fabrication to anyone looking for help in that area. I’ve included 3 before pics and 1 after repair pic.

We recently had a steel gate created in the front entrance of our home, and we are very pleased with it! It was very carefully measured and skillfully crafted. Ignacias was professional and very gracious to deal with. We would feel comfortable hiring him again for any future project around our home. Pete and Liz Doherty
