Jose and team did a fantastic job. Reasonably priced. This is a long time SF / family owned business. The process for getting in touch and getting a quote was not seamless, I emailed and followed up with a call and had to email a second time, but once I was connected, Jose came out to discuss my project within a day and knew exactly what to do to fix the problem. Quick turn, excellent work. Would recommend. read more

I contacted a few Iron guys to replace my front gate and to help us figure out a nice new up to date design. We designed a drop box to incorporate into the gate as well. The price was great the hands on ideas he had toward the final outcome with us making suggestions along the way was top notch. On installation day there were some key on the spot modifications that he and his crew were knowledgeable about fixing 100% satisfied and excited about the process read more

Olympic Iron Works - New Gate Installed - Fences & Gates Near Me - San Francisco, California

called this place. Lady answered the phone, "Hello?" I asked if this was Olympic Iron Works. Lady, "yeah." (totally professional, I know). I explained what I was looking for, she took down my info...never heard back. Apparently they don't need any business, so I'll keep looking elsewhere. (mind you, this is a 4 story building project I have...their loss) read more

Jose and his team did a great job! Jose came out personally to look at my sagging iron gate (part of an iron cage/gate home security structure), the same day I called. He showed me what was wrong, what he wanted to do to fix it, and pointed out a couple of other minor changes he could make to improve the security of the gate. He listened to my concerns, didn't force me to accept any of his proposed work (though I chose to agree to it, because it seemed like sound advice to me), and I readily agreed to hire his Olympic Iron Works to do the job. Once scheduled, his team came out, got it all done in one go, and I couldn't be happier. The game closes smoothly, now. The latch is reliable. The security is improved (due to some added pieces of iron that they added to make it harder to break in. And they painted to make it look nicer, too. Thank you Olympic Iron Works!! read more

This is the second time that I have contacted Olympic Iron Works for railing needs. Jose is amazing and is truly an iron work craftsman. The first railing they fabricated and constructed was for the exterior stairs which provides access to the exterior door. Jose was attentive to my needs and what I was looking to achieve. I shared photographs of what I wanted and he, too, offered his guidance based on his experience. He had a great idea to incorporate a "door" into the railing to accommodate moving large items in and out of the premises, due to the narrowness of my existing staircase and the tight turn. This ended up being a great addition and has come in handy more than once since it was installed. We I needed custom iron work my backyard to included an elevated catwalk and steps, Jose was the first one that I called. Once again, he worked through the design process with me. Today, he and his friendly and knowledgeable crew installed what he had fabricated and it was amazing. He made sure to show me how to best care for the new iron work so that it would last and look its best for years to come. Undoubtedly, it will be here for years to come -- most likely outlasting me. Call Jose! read more

Remembering the fine work they did on my fence several years ago, I recently hired Olympic to build a metal handrail for my front stairs. Jose gave me a rough quote over the phone based on my description, then came out promptly to take more exact measurements and show me sample styles so I could pick something out that looked good to me. He was familiar enough with code requirements to know how high it needed to be from the walking surface without me having to plan it out for him (such a breath of fresh air -- I've had a lot of bad experiences in this area) -- ended up charging me a little bit more than the rough quote since a little bit more metal was required than for what I'd guessed the dimensions would be. The work was done in a week and looks great. For context: I called Olympic after waiting for more than a week to hear back from a general contractor who had informed me that the handrail was needed to pass an inspection, but wouldn't give me an estimate for how much it would cost. Two weeks after I'd completed my end-run around him, that contractor finally got in touch with me and gave me an estimate that was almost four times as much as what Olympic had charged me, and I feel pretty confident saying that it not only would not have been done with as much attention to detail, I'd still be waiting for that handrail a month from now. Olympic Iron Works is the best. read more

Olympic Iron Works - Our 20ft custom gate to our Ranch - Fences & Gates Near Me - San Francisco, California

Jose came back after a few weeks and gave us a $50 discount to resolve the issue in question. The rush we see is just a primer he said.

This review is long overdue. Love the work Jose and his worker performed on our property. With very little guidance, Jose fabricated a custom gate to fit our entryway. His estimate was very reasonable. Most importantly, Jose came out to adjust the gate at no charge a few times. This particular gate sees a lot of traffic in and out all day since 20 people live in our apartment building.The gate has been in for almost 2 and a half years now and it looks great and is working great. Thank you Jose! read more

I had a great experience with Jose and Olympic Iron works. He was professional, experienced, and while we had to pause because of Shelter in Place, he worked quickly once he was allowed to to get my handrail produced and installed into our backyard. His communication was clear, quick, and I'm very happy with the end product. His pricing was also very reasonable. I wished we had used him for other past projects! read more

Emelio came and gave me a quote immediately and was very nice and the price was right and promised me a simple iron gate cover would be ready within a week, so I agreed over another bid. It has been 2 weeks, 3 phone calls later, and still no call back as promised to set up an appointment to install. Either they have too much work or a fluke company to deal with. Go with someone else. Updated: They finally showed up to install iron gate 2+ weeks later than the promised date with a different color (I order dark blue to match with other part of the gate and they painted dark gray for their piece). I asked them why and they said the painter didn't have a dark blue paint so they chose to use a gray paint. I asked them why they didn't tell me ahead about color change or buy the right color, and there was no good answer from them. Now my iron gate has two colors. He took off like $100 from the painting fees so it was nice but very frustrating. read more

We have had two very nice experiences with this company. One was about 100 feet of railing they fabricated & installed about 6 years ago. The other job was another railing they fabricated and installed recently on a balcony we had constructed outside our bedroom. On the more recent job there was a problem with the painting, but they came out and made it right. Emilio is very charming and his son Jose, who does the actual installation, was easy to work with. They can do any kind of custom work you can dream up & their prices are very reasonable. read more

Great Guys - really try hard to translate what your ideas are into the perfect finished product. Emilio is a nice guy and will spend all sorts of time and effort on the design part of the process. Finished product is very high quality and delivery / installation is what it should be from all contractors. read more

Just got some gate work done and I was completely happy with their work. I was converting an iron fence into a gate. Emelio came out and gave me a quote - which was much lower than the quote I received from Gomez Iron Works. His son Jose came out and removed the fence and brought it back 2 days later as a gate exactly as we discussed. They were able to preserve the design detail of the fence despite cutting it in half and installing the latch, etc. I'm really happy with their work and would definitely recommend this company. read more

seemed like nice guys - probably are. I did a bunch of running around getting together pics of what I wanted. Can't get calls returned to save my life. So glad I found out they're flaky before hiring them... read more

This is the BEST Company I every hired. Jose and his employee were very professional. His craftsmanship and his eye for the little details was right on point!! He told me his Dad taught him the trade.. Well! He taught him well!! I not a family member or every had any relationship with him in the past. We all feel scared to do business with people today especially with the hackers and scam artistes out there. But I assure you that you will be very very please with his craftsmanship. Again, I love my new iron railings and I'm excited for him to bring by the two iron caps to finish the icing on my railing project. THANKS !!!!!! read more

If I could give them 10 stars I would. We got our new fence installed in front of our house, with 2 gates and painted to match our house and it looks fantastic. Jose was super professional and the price was fair and we could not be happier. Would hire them again in a heartbeat. read more

Bad work & bad service. They installed iron galvanized exterior gate at our house. As it turned out, the gate was not really galvanized. The gate started to rust from inside out after 2 years. 6 month later holes started to appear and it was impossible to fix with any sprays or patch it. I called Olympic Iron Works back and explained my problem. Emilio came and inspected the gate. He said, he can not fix it. As the result, I have to find another company to fix my gate and spend extra money. If you don't want to pay twice, don't hire this company, you will regret it!! read more

Made an estimate appointment with them. Not only were they a no show, no one returned my calls. Why would anyone give business to a company that has no courtesy. read more

DO NOT TRUST! We contact this business for an estimate and after an initial meeting Jose Lazaro promised to give us an estimate for our gates order but he never followed up with his initial conversation. We tried to contact the business and his cell but no response even though we left several messages. This business is shady even though someone might give some positive opinion. I believe Mr. Lazaro might choose customers without real knowledge of his works or without preparations so he easily over charged the cost and did less quality works because we show him researches we knew about material and required him to do as we requested, so he gave out some excuses and never returned our calls for the works. Make sure you understand about iron materials and works, galvanizing process before dealing with this company, so u don't just feel you get a good deal but really know things you want. read more
