I needed a quote for a gate with a bent hinge. I unbolted the part of the door opener to show the previous welder that it was not the closer, but the bottom gate hinge itself that was bent. I left the opener unbolted when Gomez stopped by. He quoted a door opener replacement for $1,000 dollars. A door opener itself cost anywhere from $80-160. Since I installed the last one I know that I had to unbolt the old one and bolt in a new one. Maybe Gomez charges $900/hour for labor. He must think I'm stupid. I cannot work with him.

I needed a gate for the side passage on my home. Albert was very friendly. I explained what I wanted. He took some measurements. Gave me an reasonable estimate and we agreed to proceed. About 4 weeks later I had my new side entry gate. The crew that installed it were very professional and fast. The gate looks good and is solid construction. Overall I'm very happy and would recommend Gomez Iron Works.

Gomez Ironworks did a beautiful job on the decorative railings in the front of our house. They were reasonably priced and stayed in touch throughout the whole process. We couldn't be happier with their work and highly recommend them. Services: Custom fabrication, Ornamental iron fence design & installation

I'm a general contractor. Albert agreed to send a crew to one of our job sites to weld some guardrails. For a week, I requested a written estimate and proof of insurance. Every subcontractor is required by law to provide these before performing any work for a GC. Every day both he and the office played me off each other "call the office, " "Albert's working on it".
The morning of the job came - still nothing in writing. I texted Albert again and he told me I was too much trouble and to never call them again. So now our clients' home is left with no guardrails at a third floor terrace for Labor Day weekend. So far I have not been able to find anyone to do the job for the next 6 to 8 weeks. So that's just great.

They don't keep their appointments. First I made an appointment one month in advance for the estimates on work around my entry stairs. Then I called one week before to ask to move an appointment and office assistant moved it, no issue. However on the day of the appointment I called just to make sure they remember about my appointment and the same office assistant said she doesn't have anything in her calendar.
You can tell by her voice that she doesn't care if you have business with them or not. Very sloppy attitude. I don't trust business which doesn't keep their appointments

I would never recommend this company to anyone. Al came to our property and took a photo of our existing iron railings, and I was clear that we needed an EXACT match, including color---brown. They painted the railings black on-site, and then AFTER doing the work, they showed the work order to my 85-year-old mother. The work order was wrong, but the print was tiny and she couldn't read it.
I couldn't be present during the work, but I had spoken with Al several times and assumed that he would honor our verbal agreement. Instead of adhering to Tom Peters' famous "The Customer Is Always Right" doctrine, Al was snide and obnoxious over the phone. HORRIBLE way to treat your customers. NO customer service. NO honor. NO respect for an elderly woman who waited patiently for OVER TWO MONTHS after the promised installation date.
She paid them a 1/3 deposit in January and was promised a mid-March installation. I had to call them over and over throughout the month of April about when they would do the work, and they kept putting me off. They didn't actually install it until May 22nd. In my opinion, this company is happy to take your money but does not care at all about follow-through or service. If this is how they treat all their customers, I doubt that they get any repeat business.

I have a front entrance gate and wanted to upgrade it. I called Gomez Iron Works and made an appointment for an estimate. Albert called an hour before arrival to confirm. When he arrived we discussed my needs, he made several suggestions, took measurements, gave me an estimated time when the work could be done and the cost. 15 min after he left I received an email with the invoice and drawing of the work with measurements to be done. Installation day came as estimated.
The installers were on time, friendly, efficient, had everything prepared to install. I am very happy with the work that was done. GIW is knowledgeable, efficient and provides a quality product and service.

Had a gate put in a few years ago. I didn't have any troubles like some people said. My gate is great. I liked the old man that came to give estimate, reminded me of my dad, old San Franciscan not here to impress you, just wants to know what you want. I love it lol. Now I'm having a gate put in for my mothers house. A young guy came this time to measure/give est and was prompt, even though I don't expect contractors of any sort to be. Oh I think his name is Albert.

If you don't need a modern gate design, have no urgency, I would go with Gomez. They don't respond to emails or return phone calls in a timely manner. But I must say our Gate was installed in 1970s by Gomez and still works. But if you want a modern architectural design with smart lock I would go elsewhere.

Update : Al came to my property and spent a total of 5 minutes barely even looked at the crap work his guys did( probably cuz he already knows how crappy the work was). And instead of saying I'll make you a new set of rails and mount them the way they were supposed to be mounted ( they mounted them on old wood i stead of the concrete) he tells me the find somebody else to do the rails and he'll come back and take these down when the new ones go up. This was his best solution to the garbage work they did. And this was supposed to be worth $9,000 get the fuck out of here!

Critical: Responsiveness I had a measurement, person came to my home, told someone would email a quote, it had been three weeks, Mark or no one else as been heard from. When I called office was told someone would contact me. A courtesy call advising unable to do my requested job would have been greatly appreciated

My husband received a warm reception, he made an appointment. Mr. Sat Gomez and an employee came to our home. Details were discussed, a pattern was chosen, a date given but we did not take it as a deadline and a down payment was made. Very professional. A few days later an employee of Mr. Gomez came to remeasure the area. Probably checking the curved area.
He made a great suggestion and we agreed. We received a phone call, they would be out at 8am. They were punctual. The workmanship is of excellent quality. The welding is nice. The setup went smoothly. We are pleased with the outcome. Thank you.

Gomez Iron Works is a great company to do business with. They have completed 3 different projects for us. They are hard working, they follow up and there is great attention to detail. On all our projects they come back after installment and follow up with making sure all the blemishes are painted. We have received many positive comments from neighbors and friends. We highly recommend them.

Over the past several months I've worked with Al, Yolanda and the rest of the excellent team at Gomez Ironworks on a new stair rail for my home. I'm extremely pleased with their work and professionalism. Every appointment was easy to make and adhered to. Al helped me a lot with settling on a final design and he and the team were very patient with me, answering questions, and being flexible as I had to make schedule changes.
The final result is superb. I love it and everyone who's seen has been very complimentary. The consensus is that the new rail has transformed the space. If you want great quality, high integrity, and a fair price I strongly suggest supporting this local, family business.
