I had four railing posts rusted out at the bottom. I thought the estimate was to replace just the bottom rusted ends. To my surprise all four complete posts were replaced and the repair was done as if it were his own house. The two other quotes were to replace the existing railing and for 1/3 of the price it looks like it is brand new.

Rad did work on 2 wrought iron fences for me at 2 different locations in the same day. He was punctual, very detailed, and professional. I was very satisfied with the quality of his work. For building, repairs, or maintenance I would highly recommend RAD WELDING. The service was fantastic.

We had a wonderful experience with Rad. He did an excellent job attaching the railing on the right side of our building. He took the time to carefully cut the pieces so they were perfectly even, painted them a sleek black, and left the whole area looking absolutely beautiful. His craftsmanship, attention to detail, and pride in his work really show. We couldn’t be happier with the result and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality and professionalism!

I cannot say enough great things about Rad and the incredible work he did for us. He helped us weld our LiftMaster dual swing gate opener, and from start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. Rad was not only highly knowledgeable, but also extremely kind and patient. He took the time to understand exactly what we needed, explained the process clearly, and made sure everything was done right. It’s rare to find someone who combines technical expertise with such a genuine and professional attitude. What truly stood out was his dedication and work ethic. Despite the bitter cold and strong winds, Rad showed up ready to work and never once cut corners. He stayed focused, worked diligently, and made sure the job was completed to a high standard. That level of commitment is something you don’t see every day. On top of that, his pricing was very fair, especially considering the quality of work and the challenging conditions he worked in. It felt like he genuinely cared about helping us, not just completing a job. Overall, this was an excellent experience. If you’re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and hardworking, I would highly recommend Rad’s Welding without hesitation. We are truly grateful for his help and would absolutely work with him again in the future.

My wrought iron gate was stuck shut and could not open (not lock issue, but due to heavy door shifted overtime). Rads welding came by on Sunday, identified the problem and resolved the issue in a swift and even coated rusted part with paint. Now my gate swings open and shut smoothly without any issue. Professional, honest, high integrity contractor. Highly recommended to anyone who needs help with gates/fences.
