    Such a great place. I bought a charcoal bbq and the charcoal grate that came with the bbq had a raised center channel down the middle of the grate that I wanted removed. I emailed Rick's and Ryan replied with a time window I could swing by. They removed the center channel and made the grate flush, which is exactly what I needed. Would definitely recommend this place! Very professional and kind.

    Two metal closet poles.. DIY project. Rick trimmed the top for a customized fit for my closet.

    Rick's is amazing! Found them on Google Maps and did a quick review of client comments... I was satisfied with my research and decided to give them a try. Upon arrival Ryan was very friendly and helpful. He stopped what he was doing and did a quick job for me on the spot!! I needed a 9-10" trim on two metal pole rods for my DIY Closet! Ryan made the cut and it took less then a minute!! Thanks Rick's

    Last summer, I bought this sectional dining set for my patio. I loved it but the design of arm rest on either end made it difficult to get in and out without moving the table. Because of the umbrella and heavy base, moving the table was not an easy option. I considered getting rid of the set and buying a new one but started thinking about the possibility of finding a welder who could change the arm rest. So this morning I googled "best welders in Torrance" and Rick's Welding popped up. Via email, I sent him a picture of what the arm rest looked like and then I drew what I thought I would like it change to. He told me to bring the pieces over to his shop. We met a couple hours later, discussed the options and he gave me a quote. It seemed quite reasonable and he was so easy to work with. He told me it might take a couple days but he would call me when it was ready. Well imagine how surprised I was when he called me a couple hours later to say the job was done! As it turned out, I happened to pop in on a day where they had some free time. So I went back to pick up the pieces a few hours later and was thrilled with the outcome. Great service for a reasonable price!

    How much would you charge to to cut off a metal piece off a computer monitor clamp?

    It would be easier if I saw a picture of what needed to be cut, but either way it sounds very simple. I would probably charge $10-$20 or just ask for an honest Yelp review and do the job for free.

He advised that we remove the footrest from the actual stool and we were able to bring it in to him that afternoon. Gary really took the time to explain to us how the footrest broke and what he'll do when repairing it. Super quick turnaround and his work was impeccable. Could barely see the repair and he even gave us lots of pointers on what to do when we paint over the repaired spot! He even guaranteed his work for a period of time! Gary was really knowledgeable, honest, and friendly! 10/10 recommend Gary's work!

I took it to the shop and was quoted $120 to weld my exhaust. I am completely unfamiliar with welding, so I thought it was a little steep. Gary took the time to inform me about the process of stainless steel welding explaining why that was his cost. The welds look better than when I got it thanks to Fabricators Welding! Definitely will be going back in the future for any of my welding needs. He also told me that if anything happens in the first two weeks, he would be more than happy to fix it for free (so definitely a + to have a small warranty).

    This is a long overdue review, but the guys at Aero Welding helped me save my sofa from Living…read moreSpaces. I purchased a Bonaterra pullout sofa and there is a very slim rod that goes under the pull out bed. Well, that rod ended up snapping in half and every time I sat on the sofa, it ended up sinking. I called Living Spaces and they were of no help since I was out of my warranty. I called furniture repair places and they said I'd have to purchase the entire pull out mechanism, which made no sense given that I just needed to replace the one rod. Lo and behold, I contacted the guys at Aero Welding, and they were like no problem, we can manufacture the rod. They just needed the measurements (it would have been better if I had brought the original rod, but I had thrown it away by the time I got to them) and not only were able to recreate the rod, but they made it more sturdy. The turnaround period was very reasonable as well. Once I got home, I placed the rod and it fit perfect. But the moment of truth was to sit on it and see if it held. And it did! The sofa no longer sank and it felt firm and sturdy! Felt brand new again! Shout out to the guys at Aero Welding for all of their help! Give them a call for any welding needs!

Attention to detail and really friendly. Thanks!! It is worth driving a little farther for this service.

    In October 2025, I had asked for a quotation for three wrought iron gate and fence repair items…read more Michael quoted an initial $80 to drive to Montebello to look at the projects. He quoted $344 to repair the gate that needed a center weld. Sent 1/2 first and 1/2 for the completing the repairs. 10/22/2025, 7:28 PM For the fence Michael texted me that he was not quite sure if he would be able to handle this side of the fence... For the smaller gate repair he texted me the following: This small gate I cant repair it. Its far beyond a repair. It needs a new door. Hinge repairs is usually what takes me 3 hours. Also, Victor the owner said i have to charge more. I was out there too long for just a gate repair. 10/23/2025, 10:46 AM The next morning I told Michael to hold off until I get a better idea on how to fix this gate. I have other repair people who claims that they can reattach the bolts into the brick anchors.... Michael S. replied that the gate It was being held up by some sort of a nail. And admitted that it might be possible to use the same holes 10/24/2025, 3:36 PM Hello, Micheal. Pls bring back the metal gate back to 297 Simmons Ave. Michael call me at 4:41 PM and advised that he would need $80 for the cancellation of the project and for bringing back the gate. 10/24/2025, 4:45 PM Michael S. Let me know once sent. Bank Alerts: Victor Salarzar has received the $80.00 you sent using Zelle... 10/24/2025, 4:45 PM Pls send me a pic when you have returned the gate... I have a handy man contractor that is able to do the repairs that I can trust. Good Kid Welding is a money grab scam. I would be very cautious in using them. He is choosing projects that are easy and can generate revenue right away. They would quote a complete re-make of the gate to make higher revenue, but could not help with the repairs to the fence, which take too long to make their quick buck. These guys are in it for themselves and not for the customer. Update: This is what the Vendor replied..(very professional...not!) and he is trying to scam me for $300 on Venmo today.
