I cannot recommend Ryan enough. I requested a quote yesterday and he responded very quickly. I…read moreneeded the headache rack from my previous truck, mounted on my new truck, which didn't fit and needed it done by this weekend. He told me to come in today and he would see what he could do to get me back on the road on time. He set a time for me to bring my truck and headache rack in at 10:30am today. I told him I had an appt. before that and I may not be able to make it at 10:30. He understood and I told him I would let him know if I was gonna be later. My appt. ended up taking hours longer than it should have, but Ryan was beyond understanding, told me he had to leave at a certain time, but was willing to do what he could with the short time I'd left him with. Beyond being willing to help and dealing with a new customer (yes me) that showed up hours later than scheduled, trusting that I would show up just on my word. Not knowing if he just wasted his entire day for a good paying project or a no go project. His honesty through our emails yesterday, being honest today in telling me he'll do what he can with my being late and his honesty while there is what sets him apart from other businesses. Unfortunately, because I was late he couldn't do anything today, therefore making no money on a new customer that held his day hostage. Being Self-Employed, honest businesses are the ones that earn my respect and business. He could've slapped something together that would've worked short term and possibly drilled unnecessary holes in my truck, but he "didn't want to just take my money and ruin my truck bed for a short term fix) where other shops I had spoken with would have. He's now gonna build a custom headache rack for my truck with the design I want, not just throwing your every day rack together. If you need a good, honest fabricator who takes pride in his business and your project. Don't waste your time calling around, Krauss welding and fabrication is the call you wanna make.

In August of 20022 I met with Dave to scope my railing job. He came out and then we agreed on the…read morejob and he returned and said it would take 16 weeks to complete the work. He came out the next day and measured and told me he needed 50% down to start the job. I sent him a check that was cashed. I expected to hear from him in 12-16 weeks as he said sometimes he's early. 12 weeks was around December 2022. No email no phone call so I reached out and called and left messages. I emailed many times and I hired a lawyer to send him a demand letter to return my money. It i s now March 2023 and I have been charged around $4000. for no work or phone call or email. He seemed like a nice guy, but he took my money and vanished. Buyer beware. Paula Heegaard

I recently did business with Kris at Anchor Iron Works in Newcastle, CA. I've known him for some…read moretime now and he is both a genius with metal fabrication and in artistic ability. Not only does he do meticulous ornamental work for gates, spiral staircases, and even boats, but he is also an established artist and has created very special handcrafted sculptures and decorations for my home. I would recommend his work to anyone. He is fair and will spend the time needed to make your project the way you want. He helped me with a small project for my scooter, but I've seen many of the other projects he has done first hand and his talent and artistic ability is mind-blowingly awesome.

Owner Garin Moore personally came out to see the projected job and my sketch or what I wanted and was approved by our board. His bid came in the same day and was very reasonable. Other companies bid up to $5,000.00 more than Moore Iron. We had many delays due to snow and rain but the first dry day they were on it. During the waiting of the weather Owner Garin kept us informed on progress and predictions of when work could be completed. The whole crew was friendly, fast, and professional. I would recommend Moore Iron to anyone looking for professional quality custom ironwork.

I bought a new home in Roseville and called Surefire Fabrication to build and install a gate at the…read moreentrance of my courtyard. Glen and his son did an amazing job fabricating a custom gate in just a few weeks. I asked that they take the design from the existing gate at the model home. The end result was a gate that not only exceeded the quality but was 100 times sturdier than the flimsy one at the model. After they installed the gate I had a little problem with the strike plate alignment after it settled (the thing is 160lbs, so I was expecting some settling). They came back out shortly after to install a new strike plate which fixed the problem. Overall I'm very pleased and recommend Surefire Fabrication to anyone looking to do some metal work (they do signs too!). Thanks guys!

I wrapped them in vinyl but vinyl just wasn't meant to last THAT long. I have always known about powder coating, but never really know what it was. After a quick search I was able to find out enough to know this was the route that I wanted to go. I did a search on yelp for powder coating and Surefire Fabrication was one of the first to come up. I sent a request for a quote and within minutes I had a message back from Glen. The price was the best that I got from all other companies around, and the turnaround time was the fastest as well. The process was super smooth from start to finish. I brought the parts to the shop, and within a few days I had them back. Surefire did an excellent job. I really couldn't be happier with the results.
