Rad's Welding did an amazing job on my broken car port. He was prompt and did the job quickly. He even found problems with the car port that I didn't see and offered to fix those too. I was very happy with his work.

Rad’s Welding arrived Saturday as scheduled reviewed and estimated my project and started the work. His work ethic and professionalism were displayed by the finished product. I am very satisfied with the quality of work and his work expertise and skill. See for yourself. I will definitely use Rad’s Welding again.

I provided detailed drawings & instructions of the work needing to be done to my condominium balcony. Rad appeared unexpectedly on site without prior communication & scheduling and so we were not home. They told me he would come Friday June 28. He never came that Friday. He came the Friday morning after the 4th of July when my family was on vacation, so very unexpected. I was very hesitant to allow Rad to work on my balcony if I was not there in person to work on the balcony that I own. Rad assured me he was already on site with all of his equipment ready to go. I made sure to recommunicate the scope of work over the phone one last time and that it was very important to complete the work according to how I had illustrated it. My mistake, I should have asked him to go home and come back when he had properly scheduled with me. Rad has a HARD time speaking English and so it made communication over the phone very, very difficult. I regularly deal with people who do not speak good English and so I know to over communicate details and speak simply so we can understand each other. Nevertheless, communicating was exceptionally hard and I was regularly met with “don’t worry” or “no problem” which weren’t real answers to my concerns. I asked for liability insurance (in person and via chat) as my condominium association requires it. Rad told me the job is too small for liability insurance. I was ignored via text. His assistant also said they do not normally provide liability insurance for “small jobs”. This is highly unprofessional as they were doing work to a structural component of our building, regardless if it was a “small job” relative to his other jobs. They have not provided liability insurance. My mistake in hiring Rads welding. I should have spent a little more money to pay for a business that would do it right in communication & in the scope of work completed. I do not recommend Rads Welding, although the welding he did do is OK and I suppose the finished product is “strong” but it was not completed in its entirety. Rad has not offered to make it right in any way. Unfortunately, our association was looking to do more welding to our other 43 balconies on the building, but we will not be awarding any more business to Rad’s welding and will look for another company that can communicate well and complete the entire scope of work with professionalism.
