Welding FAQ: Las Cruces, NM

Call or text (602) 689-3084, or send the form on our contact page. We set a date and time to look at the project in person. Once we have seen it and talked through the design ideas with you, we email your estimate a few days later. Seeing the job first means the price is based on your actual opening, not a guess.

Yes. Estimates are free. We visit to see the job, talk through the design, and email your estimate a few days later.

Because the cheapest job often gets done twice. Many of our calls come from people who first hired a cheaper welder and had a bad experience. When we visit, Jason can usually point out the failure points on your existing fence or gate, so you understand what goes wrong and why. We build every project as if it were our own, so it lasts for years.

Four factors drive most of the price: the size of the piece, how detailed the design is, the fill material, and the installation conditions. A plain bar door costs less than one with a cut-steel Zia, quail, and copper accents. For fencing, the total length and number of gates matter most.

Yes. Custom work is scheduled once the deposit is in, and your build time counts from that point. The exact amount is on your estimate.

You call or text, and we schedule a time to see the project. We look at the job, talk through design ideas, and email your estimate a few days later. Once you approve it and the deposit is in, we build the piece in our Las Cruces shop, paint it, and our crew installs it and checks that it swings, latches, and locks properly.

Up to 12 weeks after the deposit, and often sooner. The biggest factor is how much work is already lined up in the shop. We are a smaller family shop and give every project the same attention, so we do not rush one job to squeeze in another.

Yes. We go over the layout and colors with you before building, and we can show you options, such as different Zia styles or center pieces. Customers regularly mention in reviews that the finished piece came out exactly as they pictured it.

Yes. Bring a sketch, a photo you like, or only an idea. We have cut Zia suns, quail, roadrunners, sunflowers, crosses, Kokopelli, mountain ranges, horses, and hares, and we can work in your family name or business logo.

Oil-based enamel, bought only from Sherwin-Williams, on everything we paint. Enamel holds up better to the elements than cheaper paints, so the finish lasts.

You choose. We paint with oil-based enamels from Sherwin-Williams, which hold up better to the sun and weather here and give a long-lasting finish. We have built black, turquoise, white, red, and earth-tone pieces, with details such as a copper-colored Zia or turquoise accents in a second color.

Mostly steel. Doors, gates, fences, and carports are all steel. Other metals we look at case by case, so send a photo.

Las Cruces is dry, which helps, but the base of a gate or fence can rust where sprinklers or standing water keep hitting it. Our oil-based enamel finish helps a lot. Point sprinklers away from the steel, keep dirt and gravel from piling against the posts, and touch up any chip in the paint before rust gets under it. A quick wipe-down after dust storms keeps doors and gates looking new.

Custom security screen doors and window bars, driveway and courtyard gates, and automatic gate openers. Wrought iron and privacy fencing. Steel carports, pergolas, shade canopies, and patio and pool screen enclosures. Handicap ramps, pipe handrails, steel stairs, and structural steel. Plus mobile welding, welding repair, and metal signs and art.

Yes, often. We install sliding and double-arm gate openers, either solar powered or hard-wired, on new gates and on many existing ones.

We build handicap ramps, fence pipe, and pipe handrails. We do not weld pressurized pipe, such as gas or high-pressure water lines.

Yes. We fix broken or rusted hinges, cracked welds, sagging gates, gates that drag on the ground, bent fence panels, and leaning posts, usually on-site. If something is too far gone to be worth repairing, we will tell you straight.

Yes. Along with homeowners, we work for businesses, churches, RV parks, and general contractors, building commercial shade canopies, structural steel, security gates, and signage.

It depends on where you live. The City of Las Cruces, Doña Ana County, the Town of Mesilla, and your HOA each have their own rules on height, setbacks, and structures. Check with them before the build. We can give you drawings and dimensions to include with your application.

Yes. Send us your HOA's guidelines, such as allowed colors, heights, or styles, and we will design the gate, fence, or door to fit them.

Yes. We offer a manufacturer warranty on all our products. If something moves, shifts, or sags, reach out and we will correct it. Most times it is a small adjustment. The warranty does not cover misuse or abuse.
