I own a rental property in Oakland, and wanted to fix the iron gate across the driveway. Whoever built it made it too narrow for a car to fit through! :( Jose at Brothers Welding was very responsive, and worked well with my tenant to find a good time to come view the project. He promptly sent me an estimate, scheduled and completed the work well, and sent me an electronic bill. He was so easy to work with and did a great job! read more

Car damaged during quote by Jose, then ghosted by Yesenia after she promised to "make it right". Probably the worst experience I've ever had with any business. Incident date: 5/20/2025 Vehicle: 2017 Fiat 124 Spider (for sale, showroom condition) Brothers Welding sent José to quote a railing extension. He parked about an inch from my car. I twice offered to move the car; he insisted for me not to worry, and that he would not hit my car. As he left, his car rolled straight into my rear bumper. José initially denied it until I pointed to the camera that I had in the front of my house, then phoned his boss Yesenia, who then told me that the car had no insurance but promised to "make this right." Repair quotes - * Caliber Collision: $1,200-$1,600 (+ sensor calibration) * ACR Collision (written): $3,409 Offers & silence - Yesenia offered $675, then $800. I accepted if she could name a reputable shop willing to repair the bumper for that price. She could not. I later asked for $1,200 (still below both estimates) and then after a few days, I agreed to settle for their original $800 just to be done. No response since 5/28. My insurance deductible is $1,000, so even going through my insurance, I would be out of pocket $200 for Jose hitting my car. The whole experience was surreal -- especially with how many times I made sure Jose knew that we needed to prevent hitting my car, and me offering to move my car 2 times because of how close he parked. Two weeks later I'm left with a damaged bumper and no payment. I'm now filing in small-claims court for the full repair cost. I'll gladly update this review if Brothers Welding covers the damage as promised or their follows thru on their offer of $800 in a timely manner. read more

Jose and crew installed multiple custom pieces at my house: hand rails, a balcony awning, a railing, and fireplace framing. I found Jose's prices to be fair and they completed the jobs well. I appreciate Jose's willingness to iterate on the results to make sure that they looked right in the end. read more

I highly recommend Brothers Welding, they are the best!!! Jose and his crew went above and beyond what I had imagined for my driveway gate! Everyone was so professional, easy to talk to, if I had any questions they had every answer. They did a great job on site and cleaned up after. They were responsive to emails and friendly in encounters. Some minor concerns were immediately addressed and resolved. Their prices were very competitive and they seem very family oriented. My gates are now solid and beautifully painted. I cannot thank Jose enough for such a great job!!! read more

Jose and his team have done an exceptional job putting up a custom made iron fence around the property and installing a new remote controlled drive way gate. Jose was kind to do the initial consulting at an hour no other company could do it. He worked with my work schedule, he gave me a detailed itemized bill. There were never ever ambiguous charges or surprises. I would like to recommend him for professionalism and quality work. read more

Our apartment had a break in early morning - person cut my wire mesh for on the new gate and and got in to scope the place. Luckily nothing of value was taken but made folks uncomfortable to say the least. Jose was very responsive , showed him pictures and he quoted me a fair price and job the done the same day. Saved some sleepless nights for my 20 tenants. My gate is now solid. I will definitely use him again- he is in my contacts already! read more

My husband and I are so pleased with this company and highly recommend it. Jose responded immediately to come give us an estimate to repair our fence after I sent him via messages the following: "Hello Jose. Our fence was impacted by the high wind storm last Saturday and yesterday and needs immediate repair for our dog's safety. We need an estimate for a fence repair immediately because we have a San all dog that often goes in the yard. A portion of our fence was impacted during the ferocious wind storm on Saturday and again on the following Tuesday. It was repaired that same day by my two gardeners on Sat but that portion was impacted again by another strong wind storm that passed through here. Thank you if you could get right to its repair because we have a precious little dog that loves to run freely in the yard." Jose came the next morning early to look at our damaged fence and gave us a reasonable estimate. The following week on Monday Jose was back to repair our fence with another worker accompanying him. We are so happy with his quick response and his great repair. I highly recommend him to you. We had called many other companies that either did not respond at all or who were too backed up until May because of all the wind storm damage occurring in the Bay area. We feel so fortunate to have found Jose and his company on Yelp. read more

We reached out to Brother Welding because we had an urgent matter that needed to be resolved right away at our condo community. The lock in one of our exterior doors broke and it was more complicated than just replacing it because there was welding that needed to be done since the handyman that helped us before had done a terrible job. Jose responded right away and told me that he had other projects going on but could make time to go fix it the next day because I explained to him that keeping our community safe is a top priority. He sent us an estimate right away which helped to move things forward with management. He came the next day and did a great job on the door . I would highly recommend Brother Welding because Jose was very professional and his prices are reasonable. We would definitely be calling him again and we have already asked him for an estimate for a new metal fence in our community :) Thank you Jose and keep up the good work! read more

Jose was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. We were turned away from several companies because our project did not meet the company minimum. I liked that Jose did not have a minimum and is willing to do any size job. Jose came out and gave me a bid within 2 hours of my inquiry on Yelp and started the project within days. The iron gate looks great and was exactly what we needed to keep the dog out of the entire yard! Thank you so much and we look forward to working with you on our next project. read more

Brothers Welding did an excellent job with a 2-story residential kitchen retrofit. The 19' column was fed up through the garage to support a new wood beam in the kitchen. Jose was available as needed for the bid, manufacturing, installation, working with my contractor and the inspectors' appointments. He finished the job with excellent priming and painting the column. My experience with Brothers, from start to finish, was A+! Jose is experienced, professional and patient. I wholeheartedly recommend his company! read more

Very sad that Jose chose to NOT honor his guarantee and stand behind his work. I was very pleased and wrote a glowing review despite some problems. Now the problem resulted in the gate breaking due to POOR welding. The latch snapped off and the entire reason for having the gate is moot. I can't leave my dog out because gate now remains open. I've tried to get Jose out here to fix the poor weld and he strung me along and then blew me off. At this point, I'd find another welder. Very sad. And frankly dishonest. read more

Jose did an excellent job helping us with a few small projects around the farm I work at. He took a look at the jobs I had initially through text and then stopped by to take a look on-site soon after that. Once we worked out the project list, he was able to make it the very next day we were available to have the work done. On the day he did the work, he showed up on time, communicated about the projects throughout the day, and showed me what the work would look like in one location prior to finish welding it across all 6. Thank you Brother Welding for helping us to take care of so many of our small projects in a single day! read more

Jose, Yesenia, and Maria are wonderful! I contacted 3 vendors to have a custom security gate and window bars installed in our building. We decided to work with Brother Welding based on our first interactions with them. They were professional, extremely responsive, and polite. From start to finish the entire interaction exceeded my expectations. Brother Welding provided information of multiple intercom options. We're looking forward to our intercom installation tomorrow. Brother Welding even held our gate for us for a few weeks while we decided which intercom vendor to move forward with. I highly recommend Brother Welding. I couldn't be happier with the final product! read more

Brothers Welding - Window bars and security gate by Brother Welding - Metal Fabricators Near Me

This review has 2 parts: one, re the work done & the other about the character of the person ( Jose). Re the person, Jose was paid in full just hours after he completed both railings ( one for the front steps & the other railing a few feet away that led down a steep slope to the garage. ) I couldn't review his garage railing work since I'm temporarily disabled with a big metal split on my leg . Anyway, the next day I saw that the railing to the garage. Though it looked good & felt secure, I had concerns how it was bolted to the house & there was black spray paint on the white wall. Jose could have said that it was a small visual defect but that it didn't effect the stability of the railing itself (which was true.) But he knew I wasn't happy. So Jose came back to the house and stayed another hour making the railing's connection more attractive to my satisfaction. Very nice Jose! Re the quality of the work, I am very happy with my new strong railings. I hope you hire him. 5 stars! read more

I'm very happy with the end result. read more

Hired Jose to fix a steel swinging gate that was about 25' wide. After calling five or so gate companies and having them all say the gate cannot be fixed (they really just wanted to sell me a new gate), Jose took a look and said no problem. He rebuilt the gate and made it stronger than it was originally and knocked it out in a few hours. He and his crew were kind and efficient and backed up their work with a guarantee. Feeling foolish that I didn't think of calling them sooner. read more

I manage a building in SF we needed a pro fix for our security issues. Jose showed up with staff and did a thorough job. Assessed the integrity of the iron security gate and replaced hinges in addition to the key entry area where our security issues were, ie: proactive, prepared.

Good people. read more

Jose completed a custom gate project for me over two separate days. So far the gate seems robust and reliable, but of course time will tell. Pleased and would recommend his work. Jose is definitely friendly and wants to find solutions to make sure you're satisfied. read more

Once I sent back my invoice Jose came within hours and fixed my gate which was not latching. Works perfectly now.

We called Jose late on a Friday afternoon for an odd job that required cutting rusted automotive parts--torsion bars were seized in crossmember and lower control arms. After 20 minutes, I was ready to give up because the job appeared impossible, but Jose had other ideas, tools and wouldn't take no for an answer. 2 hours later, he had removed the torsion bars and performed touch-up welds on the crossmember. It required some heavy duty welding, pressing, and metal work to get this mission-impossible done. I HIGHLY recommend Jose for any welding or metal work! Give him a call because he saved us! read more

Jose responded promptly to my request for an estimate, coming by the next day for measurements, and provided me with a detailed estimate the day after that. I unfortunately have had to postpone the project indefinitely due to being laid off, but I wanted to leave a good review for them on Yelp. They are responsive and courteous and priced reasonably. I'm sorry to have had to postpone their services! read more
