This place is great! Brought my trailer in to have a blinker light repaired and they got in done in about an hour! No hassles! Highly recommend them! read more

Wow!!! Scott x2, Jay, Hugh & James dedicate themselves to top quality workmanship! They stand behind their work and LOVE what they do! If you're looking for a cheap, quick fix... these aren't your guys. WFM provide trustworthy sustainable solutions! We shopped for hours to create our Overland Rig. What we couldn't locate, they recommended alternatives. Everything was shipped directly to them. We commenced our project in early March & should be completed by end of May. What a fun journey! I'll add more details when we get our FabFour bumpers & winch installed! read more

Professional, honest, service. Received a quote for trailer brake repair from a local competitor for $7k. Washoe Metal took care of it for $1.5k. read more

This morning I looked under the tow vehicle to see about wiring up that 5th wire on the 7 wire plug that was installed. Only 4 wires so I'll have to run my own wire from the battery. Also noticed that they drilled holes into the newly mounted trailer hitch - Curtis warranty states "Alterations to or misuse of the Product will void the warranty". The sad thing is that they told us before hand that drilling into the trailer hitch was not the proper way to mount the plug and they went ahead and drilled anyway. I can no longer trust their work, not even to replace the trailer hitch that they voided the warranty on nor to complete the wiring installation that was requested and paid for. If I had seen the 'hidden' reviews I certainly would not have given them my business. Their 4 star rating is a joke and Yelp should be ashamed for this deception. read more

Washoe Metal Fabricating - Trailer Repair Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Where do you find a staff like this? Pretty entitled and full of themselves. Was sent here by the VA to get a hitch put on the car for my dad's new power chair. Appointment was at 8. Guy said it was an hour, hour and a half job tops. I show up at noon and it's still not done. Everything torn apart and of course the entire shop has gone to lunch. The woman that was "helping" me kept rattling off string of rehearsed excuses as I walked away disgusted. I am so pleased that the staff of this fine establishment managed to carve an hour away from work to eat and nap or whatever they do, while the customer, gets to fend for himself and ponder the odds of making any of his trivial plans for the day actually happen. I mean getting food and medications for your 88 year old, wheel chair bound father is not of any consequence to a business that couldn't spell customer service with a dictionary. read more

Quick turnaround with both projects - trailer brake repair and electrical fix. They completed both jobs on the same day. I appreciate they open early so I can drop off and go about my day. Their pricing has been fair. read more

Monday AM after another weekend of not having my trailer. Called 5/21 to get the trailer serviced Dropped 5/22 expecting it to get in the shop and on the schedule 5/23 my rig was put on the back burner, even though I had set the appointment for the service. Minor miscommunication, the shop thought it was only the 'noise' I wanted looked at even though I said when I dropped it, it was for annual service too. Went in on 5/29 the trailer was still not looked at or worked on, standard service and the noise of something rolling around inside a break drum. 'They' said it would get in ASAP and done, yet. . . Crystal did mention they recently hired two more techs to handle the load. I figured they would be getting it in and done by Monday, told them I was going out of town and did not need the trailer till then, yet. . . MONDAY 6/4 8:00 AM phone call "it was 'just' getting on the schedule and into the shop this AM or mid day?" Tuesday 6/5 I picked up my trailer, and they did not charge me for the defective backing plate (thank you), just the usual and customary bearing service. Next time I will make sure to tell them it is for the annual service. Also nice to know the owner, reads the reviews and talks to the customers about any issues. read more

I think this may be the 1st review I've ever written on yelp. WMF is fantastic! I had several friends recommend them to me and they were absolutely right. They installed a 5th wheel hitch and performed electric brake work for me. They shoe horned me into their very busy schedule and completed the work quickly and at a good price. The work was clean ( they had to cut thru my bed liner). The customer service was above and beyond, super friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. I'll be going back for all my RV and associated repairs. read more

There is nothing bad I can say about any single person that works at this company! * CRYSTAL- is amazing. Nice. Informative! She truly calmed me down about a stressful situation we were having with style and grace! She is the best around! * quality work! * quick work, got us in ASAP as we needed a 5th wheel hitch extremely quickly! * I do feel we got what we paid for... and that means a lot when money doesn't grow on trees! Thank you guys for a good stress free experience with all of you! read more

I've used this place 2 times. The first, they sold me an Anderson hitch, installed a new hide-away gooseneck ball in my Ram truck. (Which is necessary when using this system) The very best decision I've made. This pulls Much better than my old 5th wheel hitch! So easy to remove and I can still use my 8' bed with very little work! Second time I used them, was to have my travel trailer analyzed for it's tendency to lean, and making noise. They analyzed, I scheduled the repair, they flipped my axle from the top of the springs to the bottom and repabked my bearings, thus, the trailer now rides much more level than before! Remains to be seen, how well it handles on a trip. I'll re-evaluate my opinion after this up-coming outing. Only reason I gave less than 5 stars is, a mechanic, (I'm thinking he's a newby, & doesn't seem to follow instructions or pay attention) actually used a HD Impact on my new Aluminum Anderson Hitch even after I offered him my torque wrench! Hoping it's OK! When I got home, I pulled it back off, and re-torqued it for my own peace of mind! read more

First and foremost, staff was amazing! Super kind individuals. We had trailer issues on our way home passing through Reno. Called and were quickly accommodated after hearing our dilemma. They were concerned with our safety and that we had our kids with us. Got us back on the road without delay. Thank you so much! read more

Outstanding costumer service and knowledgeable staff. Thanks to Crystal who stayed late so I could get the necessary parts to fix my rv and get back on the road. She new exactly which bearings, seals, let alone having entire new brakes and drums ready to go! When I had problems they had solutions and educated me so I go get out of Reno and back on the road within hours. read more

Not impressed. I came in for a muffler on a Jeep the gentleman at the counter looked it over and said it would a quick and easy job but never actually gave me a written quote (shame on me). I had an appointment at 1pm but he said come on early and they would be ready to go so I arrived at 12:45. At 1:30 the tech came to talk to me about the job and asked questions on what kind of muffler I wanted (again not quoting pricing) and asked if I wanted a black exhaust tip. He let me hear in and said he would be done in a few minutes. The Jeep was completed but didn't come find me until 2:30pm which is why I am guessing they charged me stupid amount of money for labor. The charges were more than I have paid in the past for a complete cat-back exhaust system. Oh and they don't tell you up front either there is a 4% surcharge for using a credit card...not that there is an ATM anywhere close. Be warned, get your quotes in writing and ask lots of stupid questions when they try to up-sell without telling you any pricing. read more

These guys run a class act operation. Purchased a travel trailer with some serious hidden water damage from a less than ethical person off of Craigslist. Jay, Scott and the team took a terrible situation and made it right. They promised a timeline and cost for the repair and delivered what they promised. Can say enough good things about this local business! read more

These guys are great. I have had some pretty crazy idea's on what I wanted on my trailer. Jay got right on it and did an amazing job. They are always there when I need them. They are the best read more

Thoroughly impressed. I had a special welding and fabricating job I needed done on a snowmobile cargo trailer. I started by searching the net and then calling around to see who I might like to work with for the job. I was immediately impressed with WMF on the phone. They were courteous and very willing to work with me on my project. Upon completion of the work, the job was done exactly as I'd requested and hoped. They even accommodated me on my time constraint. So far, great, but then a few days later, I got a call from the owner, Scott, who called to see if I was happy and to thank me for my business. Wow. Business owners, take note. If you want to win a custom, keep them coming back, AND get them to spread a good word, this is how it is done. Bob Reno, NV read more

Great place for parts for trailers! Walked in , girls at counter for parts walked right over and got the parts we needed! Amazing considering now a days you need to usually have to order everything! They had the perfect part for my 1995 Mastercraft boat trailer DHM. Girls behind counter were very nice too! I will return here for all my trailer parts or service! Thank you! read more

From poor communication and follow ups and arbitrarily charging without prior approvals I would not return here. I tried disputing the charges with the bank and it was denied due to the nature of their charges posted. I did not want to write this survey, I was charged $125.00 more without my approval. Sorry guys its still a small town and the way this was handled, you lost me as a customer. read more

Do Not Go Here!!! I had a small boat trailer axle that I was unable to get bearings and hub back onto. I wasn't sure if there was damage to the spindle (since the bearings had disintegrated), or if I was just having issues since it was my first time trying to replace the bearings on my own. Scott came out and looked at my axle and said it was bent and needed to be replaced with a heavier axle. I questioned this but didn't know, so I trusted Scott, who seemed nice and professional. He told me, he would call me with a quote the next day, but he thought it would be less than $200 for a new axle (possible new hubs if needed) and to have the bearings packed. I brought my axle in on a Monday and he thought I should get it back by Wednesday or Thursday. Scott never called with my quote. I called the day after he was supposed to call me. I never completely understood exactly what was happening, but my understanding was that they were not going to be able to order an axle that small, so they were going to have to fabricate one in their shop. It was now going to cost $280 and wouldn't be ready till the following Monday or Tuesday. By noon on Monday, when I hadn't heard anything, I thought I would call to see what the status of my axle was. After 5 minutes on the phone the friendly sales rep was unable to find my work order and said she would have Scott call me later in the day. However, I never got a call back. I call back on Tuesday morning, Scott now tells me that they are waiting on the axle be delivered but it should be ready on Wednesday or Thursday morning depending on when it arrives. By 2pm Thursday, I still hadn't heard from them, so I again must call. After dealing with the same missing work order issues, Scott tells me that now it won't be ready until Monday or Tuesday of the next week. Two weeks later, when I was told this would take a couple of days. I told them I would be picking up my new axle Friday at noon, or I would be taking my old axle elsewhere. Friday at 9:30 they call and tell me my axle is ready. I go to pick it up, but now they are trying to charge me over $400 for it. I end up getting my quoted price, but when they load it into my truck, I notice that they had not touched my hubs/bearings at all and now I still have the same issues that I went there with. When I go back inside, Scott says that they can do it, but they will have to charge me for it. At this point I just decided to leave. I ended up taking the new axle to Sparks Trailer and Repair. Within two hours they had the bearings packed and ready for me to pick up, and after looking at my old axle, they told me it would have worked, and I didn't need a new axle to begin with. I highly recommend Sparks Trailer and Repair. Do not go to Washoe Metal Fabricating. The customer service was not great, the communication horrible, and they will waste your money. read more

Scott, James and the crew do an amazing job. Being a full time rv'r I needed one day turn around. WMF did a 2 axle bearing pack with backing plate/brake replacement in one day, for more than a fair price. read more

I made an appointment a week in advance at 7:45 AM and when i got there they did not take my vehicle in and i waited over 2 1/2 hours. I left after that with nothing done. What is the point of making an appointment if they make you wait? I will not be bringing any vehicles back to Washoe Metal Fabricating. read more

We took our 2005 travel trailer to them for wheel bearings, safety inspection some welding and a roof repair. They had the unit for 10 days but we were not in a hurry. After a big spring storm (3 days later) we found the roof was still leaking. I called and talked to Scotty who said to bring it back the next morning and they would get right on it. This was Tuesday. Wednesday morning my husband took it down and was told they were backed up but would get to it as soon as possible. We went down there Friday to see how things were going on it and they hadn't even started working on it. The trailer is now in our driveway with a bad leak on the roof. We are going to fix it (which was we should have done on the first place). They have lost our business. Only take your trailer to them if you don't need it for 3 weeks. read more

Eric and the guys down at WMF are awesome! One of the steel frame mounting brackets for an upper control arm on my 06 4Runner rusted out and broke. Eric got me in on short notice. They cut off the broken bracket, custom fabricated a new one, and welded it to the frame resulting in a perfect fit; all at a very reasonable price. They are a pleasure to work with, very friendly, and willing to take the time to answer all my questions. If, and/or when, the need arises again I will go back. read more

Stopped here to get some repairs done to a trailer for my job. Didn't know WMF existed and was impressed with the showroom which had a lot of trailer parts and products. Prices were great and I wound up spending a bunch on things for my personal trailer. Will definitely come back here again for my trailer repair needs. read more

These guys specialize in trailer and hitch repairs and fabrication, so if that's what you are going for, then maybe they are your best bet. But for a small fabrication, I was not impressed. About 2-3 months ago, I needed a brake linkage component modified, that came off a '53 Buick Roadmaster. The part that needed to be modified was a 1/2 inch diameter curved steel rod that needed to be cut in half, turned about 20 degrees (so the receiver, U-shaped end was at the right angle) and welded back together. I asked that it be lengthened by 3/4 of an inch as well. While it sounds like a lot in writing, for a completely equipped shop it is a 20 minute job. While they did the work well, they charged me $100 for it. I was blown away, but just paid up, not wanting to argue. Even if it took them a half hour, $100 is excessive. Honestly, I think they charged me a lot cause I'm a young man and they probably assumed I didn't know any better. If I was 50 and had a beard, they probably would have charged me $40 haha. But really, I work on old cars a lot, and know that cutting a steel rod in half, putting in a small piece to lengthen it, and welding it back together is not that big of a job. But that's life I suppose....guess i just need to save up for a welder. read more

Had work done here, I told them what I wanted done. They did more than I told them to do and charged me twice as much as it should have cost. I would not recommend this place of business or if you do make sure what they are going to charge you. read more

Great place for getting anything and everything you need done to the running train/hitch for your trailer. Bearings, hubs, electrical, brakes, suspension, 5th wheel hitches and all that other good stuff. The really nice thing is that they keep it all in stock. Bring in the broken parts or trailer and they can usally give you the new stuff right off the shelf. They also do work on service bodies, custom hitch installs, and pretty much anything your tow vehicle needs. And for you really rich people with the giant class A motorhomes, they have all the stuff to tow your car behind it. read more

While traveling with my boat enroute to Idaho I found that I needed bearing repairs on all four of my tires. Eric went out of his way to get this accomplished for me and on the road again as soon as possible. They did a fabulous job! And I feel it was a fair price for the work they did. I would recommend anyone needing their services take advantage of their honesty, integrity and great work. read more

These guys are great! Great customer service and caring that we are safe above everything else! I will always recommend them for Rv, trailering, and braking systems. Integrity lives here! Thank you Scott ! read more

when finished i was charged 4x more for quoted parts and 2x more for labor. Nice job. you got me. read more

Had them put a prefab hitch on my truck. All they had to do was hold it up and screw six bolts in factory provided holes. It could not have been easier. Except for the fact that they had some amateur kid with little or no experience do the work completely unsupervised. Of course he stripped the factory provided mounting holes and ended up having to drill them out and jerry-rig it back together. After about three times the amount of time promised he finally secured it. This was a total amateur job that may or may not hold in the long run, However, don't feel bad for me, save your sympathy for the old boy about 90 years old (ww2) vet in the next bay where they were having a similar situation mount a hitch for his electric wheel chair. I don't know how this place stays in business with such amateur hack work. Never again! read more
