This guy is a joke. Don't be deceived by the listing as a business. Sure there's a big shiny logo that says "AAA" above a huge sign that says "WELDING." Yeah right. What a scam! I needed some welding on stainless steel tubes. I spent weeks preparing, cutting and shaping my metal pieces. I even made a sturdy jig-frame to hold the assembly in position -- providing not just foolproof positioning, but also good working room and a super easy job. I've welded before. I know what's needed. I only wish I had the TIG welding equipment. The guy was late in meeting me in front of his own gate, which should've been a clue. But he seemed impressed by how prepared I was to make his job easy. He still gave me some bullshit and wanted me to leave my whole trailer, which should've been another clue, but I deal with people like that all the time. No biggie I thought. The fella was "maybe quirky" I thought. So he gave me a quote, said it was just an hour's work, we shook hands, and we carried the stuff (frame and stainless tubes) into his yard. He said he'll get to it soon because he got another job coming. Yeah right. After a few weeks, I called him for status. How's it going? And he says, "it's too windy out there right now for heli-arc welding." Okay. Whatever. Sometimes he picks up the phone, then hangs up! WTF?! Phone connection problem? I left polite messages. I told him I was concerned. I'm not rushing you, dude. Just VERY CONCERNED. No return call. EVER! Okay. Maybe the guy is a worker not a chatter. But NO! Sometimes I catch him and he goes, "I have a doctor's appointment." Then, "my hands hurt." Then, "I have carpel tunnel syndrome." It goes on and on like that. And he's always rude. I was starting to think I'll never get my material back. Obviously the welding will never get done. But should I call the cops... I thought. The guy is just creepy. He cannot understand common reasoning. He's got loose screws in his head. Talking to him is like walking on eggshells. I try only positive incentives (more projects to come, can you weld this too? etc.). Didn't want to piss him off. He's like a ticking time bomb. But nothing helps. I tried emotional support. I tried encouragement, I tried humor. Nada. After TWO MONTHS, I give him one final chance. Catch him on the phone, and he says he could do it that same evening because the days are much longer now. Okay, great. I tell him I'll call again next morning. Next morning, same shit. So I just say I'm coming over to pick it up. I get there and it's like he NEVER TOUCHED IT! My stainless tubes just sat there all this time getting corroded (it's not marine grade stainless, and it's not meant for outdoors). Even my wooden frame-jig got warped. It wasn't designed to sit for so long. My project was fucked up. What a pile of bullcrap. This guy's life is bullshit. His business is bullshit. Your project will be bullshit! You have been warned! And he looks 65 years old! Don't be fooled. Stay away from this ridiculous pathetic clown. read more

I run projects for a mid-sized general contractor and the company has hired AAA Welding numerous over the last 15 years. Their work for us includes fabricating to sketches or formal plans, shop fabrication, field installation and welding for structural and ornamental work. The most recent project completed for me was the fabrication and installation of custom square-tube steel handrails. There were no detailed drawings, only an indication of the look sought by the Architect, so AAA had to assist with the design and provide numerous samples. The Architect and property owner were very happy with the finished project. Some time ago they fabricated and erected a stand-alone tube frame elevator tower which was fully glazed on four sides--a very demanding job--and that also went smoothly. I have hired them on a hard bid basis and a time and material basis as well and have never had a dispute about money or change orders. The owner of AAA Welding is easy to work with and all work has been completed satisfactorily. I have also utilized their truck crane services with equal satisfaction. They earned their "stars" and I will look forward to working with them on future projects. read more
