Sam was great. We texted him a photo of the wagon wheel and he made a base/stand for the wheel with rebar stakes so that we could stake it in the ground. He arrived promptly on a Saturday morning with the stand he had made. He proceeded to lay out our design and welded the items to the wheel. Sam knew his craft and did a great job on the wheel. The last thing he did was attach the base he made and he then helped us to stake the wheel into the ground. It was fun talking with Sam about the good old days in Denver. He did a wonderful job and we are enjoying our wheel/hanging plant holder. We also decorated it for Halloween with orange plastic and made it look like a big jack-o-lantern.
We would highly recommend Sam for any welding needs you may have.

The hinge broke again. I don't believe it was Sam's fault. The TRUTH is that my 87 year-old Dad STILL uses the door for a CRUTCH. His ego won't let him get a WALKER. Sheesh ... I'm 60 ... his oldest son.
The bottom line is that I'm learning about old-age big time! It is verrry hard to see your parents reach this point. YOU know who comes next, right?
I'm sorry, I digress.
Within a couple of hours after I called, Sam went back to my folks' house and re-soldered the broken hinge. When I went over to look at the re-do, it was clear to me that my Dad can comfortably LEAN on this door for the rest of his life.
Thanks, Sam! ... My Folks' Love You!!!
If I could look for improvement in any areas, I'd say that his selection of iron is limited. I think he "comes by" iron pieces here and there, and turns them into railings, etc. This keeps costs low (he was 3-4x less than another company we got an estimate from) but you won't get too much to choose from unless you have him order from another company, which will increase costs. His finishing work is probably not as clean as the higher priced companies (dings in the wood cap, gap in spindle holes), but we think it's worth the cost difference. As for responsiveness and punctuality?Sam reminds me of an artist?sort of on his own schedule. He won't forget about you, but you may have to wait a day or two longer than planned. Again, worth the cost difference!
Overall, our railing is safe, taller, and looks so much better than the original builder wood railing!
I showed Sam my umbrella when he came to repair the gate. he assured me he could fix it and he took the umbrella with him. About two days later Sam called me and stated the umbrella was fixed. Even though I was not home, Sam came by my house and dropped off the umbrella. He said we could settle the bill later.
Sam was very easy to work with and I recommend him to anyone who needs metal work done inside or outside of their home or business.
Even though wooden fences are not his focus, Sam also helped us with our back and side yard which has a six-foot wooden privacy fence. Sam used existing wooden fence gates to close off the side yard and installed another in the back so we could access the yard from the alley. The installation is solid and a great asset!
He also did a lot of custom work on the iron and built the fence exactly to my specifications. I was trying to get a personalized fence but also compliment the existing historical iron fence on my street. Sam did an excellent job. I also went to his shop in the neighbourhood and saw the panels and some of the decorative pieced manufactured.
If you are in the 5 points or Curtis Park area, you won't find anyone better than Sam.
I will be using him for future projects.
