Appreciate the effort and communication. Would definitely consider for future jobs. Tim was very helpful.

These guys went above and beyond. They came out to swap out some hinges on a driveway gate to meet code requirements for a pool we are building. While on site I asked if they could modify another metal security gate. They were more than happy to assist and they modified the gate off site. When they returned, not only did it work perfectly, but they took the liberty of Powdercoating it without me asking. It looks brand new. There were polite, professional and had great communication. read more

Tim the owner is the best Communication and follow thru is excellent.. stand up guy , honest & fair . His crew came out only two days after signing the contract-four or five guys all working together to install a 60' hand rail along side my drive. They created , installed and had the rail up in no time . Worked right along and At completion vacuumed and blew off the drive where they had been working Who does that ? I'm very impressed with this company If you need anything wrought iron this would be your company read more

Tim was a pleasure to work with. He was professional, reliable and does quality work. He works for you and not a paycheck. They showed up to work at 7am and didn't leave until 8pm on most days to get the job done. He added an additional piece under right side of the fence so our dogs wouldn't be able to get out (because they did due to the driveway slope) and even though it was an afterthought, it didn't look like it. We will definitely use him again in the future and highly recommend him for any iron/wood/cable work. Give him a call for free estimate. read more

McMaster iron went above and beyond on this project. We had a scheduling set back due to the Covid pandemic, but Tim and his very professional crew assured us that the job would get done. When they were faced with a challenge, they bounced back and tackled it head on. We would recommend them to be your first choice when it comes to any fence or gate project you may need handled. Very professional and clean work! Thank you McMaster Iron we appreciate you guys! read more

Tim is incredibly professional and knowledgeable and is invested in the best tools to get the job done quickly and efficiently. He's even nice enough to be lenient on a payment plan when I couldn't afford it upfront all at once. These are one of the professional as you find every once in a while that you plug into your phone and keep because people are such integrity or so rare anymore. I don't want to post a picture of the great work that he did because I don't want my personal information in public but it was a spectacular job with a very tough challenge. read more

I love small business and I'm so thankful to have found someone who could do exactly what we wanted as quickly as possible. They were communicative, responsive, and anytime we had a question or concern they would jump to make it right no matter what time it was. Definitely recommend! Love our three new gates!! read more

McMaster Iron - Powder coat wrought iron gates with 180 swing and double latch -- stays closed or stays open - Metal Fabricators Near Me - Spring Valley, California

When the owner of a company called Titan Steel recommends an "Iron Guy" to build your custom gate - you heed his advice. The City required me to remove a structurally sound 8-foot gate in the font of my home, stating that it was a code violation. Needless to say, I was frustrated, but also looked at the predicament as an opportunity to give my home a facelift. Tim McMaster came out the very next day and carefully surveyed my unique situation. He then methodically calculated the engineering required, and enthusiastically discussed lots of design options with me. Once we settled on the design, I knew the gate would look great, but I didn't know how well-built it would be. Tim and Julio fabricated my custom 'dream gate' with precision, and it was fully installed within 2 weeks - talk about instant gratification! I couldn't be happier with my custom McMaster-built gate and what it's done for look of my home. Even better, I have a trusted friend to call upon whenever I need advice on design, construction, fabrication and / or installation. Sure, I did my due diligence and got the customary 3 estimates, but in the end, it was one call that solved it ALL. I recommend you call Tim too - and tell him Alex sent ya! read more

We had a really great experience with McMaster iron. We needed a small gate put in to finish fencing in our back yard. Tim and team were very communicative and professional and did a very thorough job with both installing and staining the gate. He pointed out problems with the alignment of our deck and gave us a few options for working around it. Also, they took the initiative to fix another gate we had on our driveway that was also having alignment issues which made it hard to close. It's been working brilliantly ever since. Thank you so much for that! We were really impressed with the quality of the work we received with Tim and company and would highly recommend them to anyone. It's been a few months now and the gate still looks and works beautifully. I really wish we had used them for our other gate which still has a lot of problems. read more

Timothy met me at the property we need a new fence installed, measured, super nice guy. That was about 6 weeks ago and I've never heard from him again. I've left voicemails, messaged through yelp, nothing. Just a waste of time. read more

Because it was such a small job, I had no luck getting anyone to make or install a 4' x 5' side gate (to replace a disintegrating wood gate) near my backyard until I called McMaster Iron. Tim came out the next day, created a simple meticulously-created custom-fit wrought iron gate onsite, adjusted the existing posts for best results, and did it for a very reasonable price. It looks great! read more

BEWARE, would not recommend. Sales Rep and Owner (Tim and Trent) will make a great sales pitch about the quality of their work. Proof is in pudding. Attached are pictures of their actual work. Paid 50% deposit of $3,500 February 2022. Date of Install: May 28, 2022. Knowingly installed damaged fence panels, welding not complete and poor quality, multiple damaged fence areas, did not seal area they drilled into. I noticed fence was RUSTING 4 days later, on June 1, 2022. Did not complete the deck fence (missing caps). They filed a CA Preliminary Lien Notice. Owner, Tim, agreed to return my deposit and release the lien after removal of the fence. Was scheduled to have fence removed on July 7, 2022, they no-showed us. Actual removal of poorly installed fence was on July 13, 2022. To date, zero follow up or response from them to refund me and release the lien. Do yourself a favor and choose another fence company. Look at pictures to really see the lack of quality. read more

While they weren't able to do the job I needed, they were very responsive and very helpful. What I requested was really not in their wheelhouse. read more

Tim and his crew helped design and then fabricated a fence for our front yard. They were absolutely great to work with. Tim listened and helped us get exactly the fence and driveway gate systems we needed. The fence is wood and iron and it turned out great! Good customer service is hard to come by these days, but Tim and his crew were absolutely amazing. They responded to any question or concern we had with a pleasant attitude. They were a delight to work with and we would most definitely call them again for any other fabrication needs and would recommend them to anyone! read more

I had Tim and his crew out for an outdoor project at our home in Del Mar. Tim and crew were meticulous in their attention to detail and provided us the highest quality workmanship. Their level of service was exemplary and they always kept us informed about where they were in the project. I could not give a stronger recommendation to McMaster Iron for all of your needs. I will certainly be a repeat customer in the future! read more

We contracted Tim to replace an iron gate on the side of our house. He was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous, and he had some good ideas. His crew was also very courteous. We wanted to install mesh at the bottom of our gate so our little dog couldn't get out and skunks and other critters couldn't get into our back yard. He gave us the name of a vendor to look at various mesh products, which was very helpful. He worked with us to incorporate our design ideas. The gate is beautiful and well-made, and now is up to our meticulous standards!! The project took quite a bit longer than we had anticipated due to scheduling issues and some hiccups along the way, such as movement of the wall the gate is attached to. These were addressed by Tim at no additional cost. We would definitely recommend Tim. read more

I am extremely pleased with the service, quality of work, and the prompt response of Mcmaster Iron. The job was an iron gate repair. After calling and getting a bid via internet the job was responded to the same day and completed within 4 hours of acceptance of the bid. WHAT SERVICE! Phil Caldwell San Diego read more

Tim and his company impressed me from the beginning to the end of the install. After an initial consultation over the phone, he arrived at my house with pamphlets detailing the types of solar powered gate openers and locks available for my front gate. He walked me through what would be done, and gave me a rough, ballpark estimate before he left. Tim and his crew were able to start almost as soon as the ink dried on the contract; they were quick and efficient, and had my driveway gate back in working order within a day. The gate opener and lock were installed on the second day. They have a mobile welding station, so they were able to fabricate needed parts on-site, including the mount for the solar panels. There was a slight hiccup with the gate opener itself - one of the parts was bad, and the battery for the gate was dead by morning. Tim and his crew were back that same day to diagnose the issue, and continued to come by every day until the bad part was diagnosed and replaced. They also took the time to fabricate footers for the gate opener box, to ensure the large cover wouldn't shift off the concrete base and start rubbing on the chain. My gate looks amazing, the gate opener works perfectly, and Tim and his crew have my utmost respect for their professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail. read more

McMaster Iron fabricated handrails for my back and front yard and they added a cable rail fence as part of my terracing in my back yard. They also fabricated a metal framed gate with wood planks. Tim and his company have all of the qualities I was looking for in a Iron company. He is patient answering questions; provides excellent/quality service and his rates he charges are very competitive. His crew was very professional and without hesitation corrected any issues I had with the job until I was completely satisfied. I am a stickler for details and they patiently worked with me during the many different jobs they performed for us. I would without hesitation highly recommend McMaster Iron to complete any metal fabrication job you have in the future. read more

I did not want a fence around my pool, but the county made me do it! I contacted Tim and he was there the next day. They installed a wrought iron fence that was out of sight from my vanishing edge pool, a decorative gate to match my front gate, and painted my front gate. They were amazing - very professional - They stuck to their quote, did amazing work in a timely manner. I am going to call them again. read more

At an HOA property we manage, we needed to replace a security gate with a brand new gate, pedestrian door, and heavy duty industrial door closer, as well as adjust 2 existing side gates. We acquired several bids from many companies. Some companies never responded to bid requests, some were way out in left field with high pricing, some were months backed up and couldn't schedule us anywhere near our desired schedule. After much searching, McMaster Iron Co. provided the most fair pricing for the work requested. They provided the bid quickly and accurately, first by reviewing the scope using pictures, then by meeting me on site to verify existing conditions. Although they were very busy, which was expected, they promised to meet our desired schedule with a quick turn around of 4 - 5 weeks during their very busy season in December and January, whereas other companies we checked with were backed up by a few months and were unwilling to schedule us as fast as McMaster Iron Co. They met the schedule as promised, which was very important to our Board of Directors at this HOA property, and delivered a fantastic product. The new gate looks really great, very durable, and secure. Abraham was a pleasure to work with through the entire process. He responded to all questions and inquiries, and followed through on the job from start to finish. I met both Abraham and Tim on site, and spoke to both of them on the phone. Tim, the owner, is very knowledgeable, and he explained to me in detail anything I wanted to know about the materials prior to the order. He took the time out of his schedule to clarify whenever I had any questions. He recommended and explained the benefits of installing an industrial door closer on the new gate to replace the existing traditional door closer, which would extend the life of the closer at this high traffic, heavy use location. Tim took precise measurements at the job prior to the order. The installation technicians that I met who installed the new security gate were very skilled, knowledgeable, and professional. McMaster Iron Co. helped us to achieve our goals with our client by providing excellent customer service, honest and fair pricing, on-time installation, skilled work, and quality products. We would highly recommend them to other clients, and we look forward to working with them again in the future. read more

I cannot say enough positive things about this company and Tim. We needed to 'coyote-proof' and build a dog run on the side of the house. Tim arrived promptly the scheduled day of our inspection, did a thorough walk through with us to get an idea of our project needs, and came up with valuable and appropriate suggestions for how to proceed. We had the estimate in hand later that day. He also moved on a quick timeline - we were able to get the projects completed prior to our move in date the following week. He was always extremely courteous and respectful, not to mention thorough with very quality work. We added coyote rollers to our chain link fence, galvanized steel mesh trenched at the bottom of the fence, and created a dog run on the side of our house. Tim and his team were quick, efficient, and responsible. About 1-2 weeks later, we had a fence emergency (on a part of the fence not previously serviced by Mcmaster) and Tim and his team were able to come out that day to help us replace a part of our wooden fence and gate. It looks beautiful and is extremely functional. High quality experience all around, would not hesitate to recommend and definitely plan to use this company for any future fence related needs. Thank you McMaster!! read more

Tim is a rockstar!!! From the initial quote all the way through completion of my project, he was extremely professional with excellent and prompt communication (which is not the norm for the contracting world). He helped design and build a sliding, solar powered fence for my backyard which goes out to an alley. It's only a 25 foot wide lot but he figured out a way to make it work. I couldn't be happy with the quality and usability of the gate. His quotes were very competitive as well! I'd 100% use him again for any fence or gate project of mine and would not hesitate to refer him to others. read more

Tim was very nice to deal with. His employees were great. I had a small wrought iron repair job and they treated me like I was replacing the entire fence. I strongly recommend them. read more

No work is too small for Tim. My security door fell apart after four years of abuse. Only thing holds it together is screen. While doing big job, Tim keeps the small job like this one in his mind. He squeezed it in between his schedule. I think he just want help people in need. We exchanged a few texts via Yelp. He keeps his words. A phone call later, he showed up at the broken door. With the helper, he finished the job quickly with high quality. Did I say he offer very reasonable price? read more

Really professional work. Tim and his crew were absolutely the best contract experience I have ever had! Thanks again for a job perfectly done. read more

This company is top notch! They installed a fence for our dog run, a wroth iron side piece on the side of our house and a custom made iron screen door! They are all beautifully crafted and very well made and installed! They showed up on time, prices were fair, and very reliable. I recommend this company for any of your custom iron needs. read more
