Armando Sanchez and his team are true pros. I put off getting railings on our front steps (for about 20 years). When I did make the call to Neza, Armando visited our home and gave me a quote within the hour. About 32 hours later, the Neza team had installed custom fabricated, high quality, gorgeous railings at our place. I was and am pinching myself because the experience was so smooth and timely, and the work is so high quality. The price was very good, response time was obviously excellent, and the whole team are seriously skilled hard workers. They were a delight to work with, provided exactly the service I requested, and I will definitely call them again. I recommend them for any iron work you might need. read more

Armando and his crew did an amazing job, 100% recommend. We had multiple additional requests at the beginning of the project, and at first, I was a bit worried as Armando wasn't taking any notes, but his head works better than mine, and they have delivered every single thing. Attaching before and after photos of our fence. Thank you! read more

Armando responded to my request for quote through Yelp immediately and we were able to schedule a day and time for him to come out and visit. He had to come from Oakland to SF which was very much appreciated. I had some drawings prepared for him to review and quote so he was able to quickly give us a price for a pair of wrought iron handrails for the front of our house. His family run the business so he was familiar with what they are capable of doing as well as catering to our design requirements. Armando was so gracious and knowledgeable it was refreshing to speak to someone who knows what they are doing. I felt very comfortable with him. Sadly we did not choose Neza as we did get a competitive bid from another fabricator which I also was very pleased with. I contacted Armando as soon as possible to let him know and he replied graciously. If you need ornamental metal work please give Neza a chance since they are customer focused and well rated in Yelp. Ask for Armando!! read more

Absolutely outstanding work. Communication on point and the finish was smooth and clean. I would not have a problem recommending this business. read more

An 80 foot redwood tree fell on the railing and, can you believe it...the railing is still standing and "caught" the tree avoiding damaging our deck!!! WOW! They are scheduled to come out right away to fix the bend in the railing....no need to replace the whole thing since they make it all onsite. Great company! read more

I met with Armando over 3 weeks ago to review our handrail project, but never received a quote, so can't assess the quality of the product. There must be a shortage of welders in the area, because several of them have been flaky and not followed up. Good for them that they are busy! Or perhaps our project is too small / not enough profit. Sanchez Iron Works is one of the few to followup with us. I really hate to knock small businesses, but I don't want anyone else to have their time wasted in our busy schedules, so want to be honest about my experience. It looks like other people here have gotten followup, so perhaps it's hit or miss! Update: Very strangely, Armando is saying in his response below that he told me he doesn't make the kind of handrail that I want, which is a weird lie because we came up with a plan together for something more simple that would work and he said he would send a quote. I'm not sure why he would lie about that? read more

I needed railings going down two steps into my garage. Armando came out to see the job and give me a quote very soon after I contacted him. His crew did an excellent job, it came out looking great! I was very happy with the price too and feel much safer going down into the garage now. I would not hesitate to recommend Neza Iron Works to anyone! read more

I reached out to Neza (and Armando) because they separated themselves from other companies through the experiences shared by their customers - and now, we get to add our voice. After a brief chat on the phone, Armando came to our home and listened to our situation. After studying our fence, he shared his view of our options and the pros & cons (specific to us) of each. After deciding the path to follow, the Neza crew got to work the next day. The crew worked hard all day, did a great job and finished up the next day. We ended up with a terrific final product, and importantly, it was the perfect solution for us. Armando is knowledgeable, a good listener, consultative and most of all, he cares about the experience of his customers. read more

We needed railings for the stairs in front of our house, plus repair of a an existing railing along our front porch that had become loose. Armando was recommended by two friends. He came by to give me a verbal estimate on the same day I called him, and his staff did the work the next morning. Fastest and easiest home improvement project ever! Reasonable prices. The new railing looks good and feels sturdy. For the loose railing, they re-soldered it and bolted it to the porch landing and it now feels sturdy too. read more

Yet another WOW! experience. We hired them again...to install a telescoping gate, iron along the top of a long wall, and an arbor with gate. Armando and his crew did a fantastic job. All the iron work iare galvanized, solidly welded, and painted with multiple coats. Everything looks great. We're so happy to have such a great iron work connection. We highly recommend Neza Iron for your next iron works project. read more

I'm so happy with the job that they did I am having them come back and add another railing.

I cannot say enough great things about Neza Metal Works. Armando built the stairs for my ADU and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. First off -- the turnaround time was unbelievable. He had the stairs fabricated and ready in just three days. In construction, that kind of speed without sacrificing quality is rare. Most shops would have taken weeks. Second -- the craftsmanship was excellent. The welds were clean, the lines were straight, and everything felt solid and precise. You can tell immediately when someone takes pride in their work, and Armando absolutely does. But what really sets him apart is his integrity. He was beyond fair on pricing -- no games, no inflated numbers, no last-minute add-ons. Just honest, straightforward communication and exactly what he promised. In an industry where that can be hard to find, it stood out. If you're looking for metal work done right, done fast, and done by someone who genuinely stands behind his work, Neza Metal Works is it. Armando is one of the most honest and reliable people I've dealt with in construction. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. read more

As a property manager overseeing more than 100 doors throughout the Bay Area, Nezra Iron Works has become my go-to gate vendor. I've used them for both a residential project in San Francisco and a commercial building in Oakland--and both gates exceeded expectations in quality and appearance. One standout aspect is that Nezra includes detailed drawings with each estimate--personally sketched and delivered quickly, giving you a clear vision right from the start. I requested a mailbox to be integrated into the design, and it was installed beautifully. I also opted to leave the top of the gate open to allow package deliveries to be securely dropped in--an incredibly practical touch. This company truly respects their customers' time and delivers with speed, precision, and excellent communication from start to finish. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and I look forward to working with them on future projects. read more

I am so impressed and pleased with the professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail demonstrated by Armando and his team, Saul and Leo. My neighbor had a small railing installed about a year ago. It turned out well, so I asked for the company information. My house needed a railing at the bottom of the stairs and a gate across the top. I texted Armando and he came the next morning. We talked about the project and design, and he came back by the end of the day with a reasonable estimate. They could start a day later. When the team showed up, they were prepared and got right to work. We refined the design elements and sizes. Communication was excellent. The guys welded the templates and said they would finish fabrication and be back...THE NEXT DAY! Wow! The next afternoon they arrived with the finished railing and gate, proceeded to install them, and then, to my complete surprise and delight, they painted my existing railings to they would look new, too! Two neighbors have asked for their info, so I think I'll be seeing them around! Thank you for a beautiful job. I love how it looks and works! read more

Armando and his team were great to work with! They were prompt, reliable, and fairly priced. They went above and beyond to work with us to capture the design and features we wanted, and had many example projects to pull from when working through this. We highly recommend! Our gate is unpainted intentionally so it will rust to match other features in our yard, uses 2x2 hog wire mesh and an outdoor rated coded gate lock. read more

I have to say, in this day and age you never know what you're going to get with contractors, but let me put your mind at ease. Meza Iron Works was very fast to come bid, and very fast to deliver. They were courteous and professional at all times. The work is beautiful and very strong from a safety aspect. They were quick to address our concerns and make good on their promises. They even paid replace our doormat that got nicked in the process. If you're looking for fast and affordable, these are your people. read more

From start to finish the experience we had with Armando and his team was top notch. He is a detail oriented person and will make you feel comfortable along the process. Starting out with this project we had little to no idea on what to expect with the design and the final product. Armando was very patient with us in chosing the design -which we changed a couple of times but he was very patient and did an amazing work. Would highly recommend Armando and his team to anyone looking to get iron fence with automation and security gate. He is best in the business and to top it off his prices are very competitive. We are super happy and delighted with the job and have already received many compliments on the work, big thanks to Armando, Hymi, Diego and all his crew(don't remember all their names). read more

Needed to bring an old residential gate up to code in SF. Multiple locksmiths and welders in SF didn't want to touch the job. The couple who would wanted 80% more than Neza Iron Works. Communications were a little disorganized, but they didn't need separate trips out to install the mesh and guard unlike everyone else I talked to; pictures of the existing gate with examples of what I was looking for were good enough. They arrived when they said they would, did the job with no issues, and charged a fair price for the amount of labor and materials. Can't beat that. read more

On Sunday, March 17th, my husband and I suffered a break-in in the pre-dawn hours in our condo in Duboce Triangle of San Francisco while we slept through the whole thing, ugh! A thief crowbarred open our front window after standing on a nearby ledge, and promptly stole my almost-new MacBook Air off my nearby desk because I had left the Bluetooth active overnight, which I know now can be easily tracked through an everyday app. A very unfortunate learning experience, but we were very glad that is all they appear to have taken! We wanted to reinforce our condo ASAP and found Neza Iron Works through Yelp and Google. I reached out to the number listed on Yelp and it belonged to the very kind owner, Mr. Armando Sánchez, who picked up that Sunday on his own line while at home with his family. He agreed to meet with us the very next day, and measure the front of our condo for a customized white ironwork grid with requested additional attachments, so no 'prison-like' bars in this case. He was very professional, friendly and offered us a very reasonable deal for the work to cover our three large front Victorian windows. We happily gave him a downpayment and hoped to have the work scheduled ASAP. Unfortunately, our error was not running this by our HOA first, who were not okay with iron bars installed on the 1st floor of our 3-floor home, despite the breaking of our window facing the sidewalk. But it is what it is! This was admittedly our error in not seeking their approval for "common area" modifications, but Mr. Armando Sánchez graciously allowed us some time to try to work this out with our HOA. Unfortunately, the HOA put the kibosh on the bars, but Mr. Sánchez in the meantime had began the work customized to our windows, and even graciously offered to store this work for us for some time in case the HOA changed their mind. Our HOA responsibility and negotiations is our own oversight, but we wanted to HEARTILY recommend Mr. Armando Sánchez and Neza Iron Works for their professionalism, work ethic and honesty. If we could have gotten our HOA on board with our security solution, we would have eagerly added his professional work to the front of our condo. Mr. Armando Sánchez and Neza Iron Works are a credit to honest and talented workmanship, and if we ever have the opportunity to hire them again, we would do so in a heartbeat. Absolutely great craftsmanship and integrity. (Photos attached of ironwork in progress.) read more

I had put off installing handrails on my front stairs for years, thinking it would be complicated, expensive, or otherwise taxing, and for years I watched my parents get older and struggle to climb the six stairs into my house. Finally I decided to do it, googled around found all these incredible reviews for Neza Iron Works. Armando picked up the phone right away, and met me at the house the next morning to discuss the project. I felt good about the meeting and gave him a big deposit, but was still worried that perhaps I'd missed something or that the project would take a long time or somehow get screwed up. EXACTLY ONE DAY LATER THE JOB WAS FINISHED! I was flabbergasted, impressed, and delighted. These handrails have exceeded my expectations and now I'm kicking myself for not calling Neza Iron Works sooner! read more

We had Armando and his team build up a metal gate, side door and fence. We found him through a simple search through yelp and he had great rating so we decided to give him a try. Now that he finished our project for us, we too can vouch for him and his team's quality, communication, quickness, and do right by client mindset. You honestly can't find much people like Armando working in any industry now a days, sadly. He's as genuine as they come. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again for any of my future projects or recommend him to my friends and family (which I've already did). Not to mention, he's pricing is very fair and he stands by his work. I would be surprised if anyone would be dissatisfied with him and his work. Super happy we decided to give him and his team a try.

I can't believe how fast Neza Iron Works (Armando) is and how good the finished result is. We recently bought a house with an iron guardrail around the stair landing that had some damage and wasn't up to code (had big enough gaps for my four-year-old to squeeze through), so I reached out to a few ironworks (ironworkses?) to get quotes for replacing the guardrail (and also making some improvements to our front porch handrails). Armando was the first to reply, the first to come out, and the lowest price. Once I signed with Armando, he came out to do some final measurements and they finished fabricating all the parts in less than a week! A team of guys came out and removed the old guardrail and handrails, installed the new ones, patched up the holes, and cleaned up the entire area in less than a day. Shockingly good service. read more
