Sol O Alire Construction

Everything was installed wonderfully and looks great, it did take longer than I expected to install.

It was a great process on the installation of our fence and gates. Humberto, Abraham and their employees were respectful and kept us updated on their progress. They did an awesome job. Thank you again Sol Alire!

Fantastic work! Achieved all of the functionality we were seeking and looks great too! Friendly owner and workers aiming to please the customer. Poured concrete for a basketball court with driveway to the sidewalk. Raised existing block wall. Rebuilt damaged block wall. Installed cedar fencing with two custom vehicle gates. Installed and assembled basketball hoop. Installed netting behind hoop. Reinforced existing steel frame carport with cracked welds and multiple anchor replacements due to wind damage. After reinforcement, there was no rocking with the strong spring winds. From shopping around, here are a few things I found unique about this contractor. Challenging to find a contractor willing to provide all of the services I was requesting. Hoop installation and assembly is avoided by others. Custom gates are avoided except if that is their primary business. Worth the wait. Would definitely hire again. All that remains is to withstand the test of time (5 months and counting).

Sol O Alire did a wonderful job. They were efficient, made sure everything was cleaned up before finishing, and effortlessly accommodated a last minute change. I already have plans to hire them for a future project.

Abraham and his crew were great. My wall came out exactly how I expected. I would highly recommend!

Have had a number of jobs done with them, most were good, one was NOT. A fence section was put in with a very weak foundation, just inserted in the soil. We found out several years later when it started to fall over. They didn't answer repeated calls from us, so we had to get someone else to prop it up.

Excellent! Awesome job, will hire again in the future.

Excellent work by Sol o Alire! From beginning to end Humberto, Abraham and the crew were professional and accommodating to our requests. The quality of the cinderblock wall is top quality. Definitely would recommend for any cinderblock and concrete projects.

Excellent. Professional. Stayed in contact. Management/Owner oversaw project. Pleased with price point.

I only ever write reviews for businesses that I truly believe to represent among the best in Albuquerque, and like to educate people on often overlooked factors that can be very challenging to find out about a company online or in person. Abraham came out to Tijeras and quoted me for a large custom redwood fence. He came out with a smile on his face, prepared my quote, and we communicated through text messaging, nice and convenient. Nothing special here, basically the positive experience you would expect at the beginning of a project. He did know to use pressure treated redwood that is necessary for good, long lasting weathering. There are many cheaper woods that weather horribly that could get snuck onto projects to cheapen quotes, so watch out there from others and find out upfront. I received a middle of the road estimate and that was in line with my expectations. I have found that surprisingly low quotes come with inexperience, cut corners, and poor work. Too high quotes come with the exact same results, because you're paying a middle man that sub-contracts the work to the aforementioned people and oversees construction long enough to collect the payment on the first day and last day of the project, basically 30 minutes. The day construction started an older gentleman came out with several other guys, admittedly this put me on guard for several days, even though Abraham said it was his dad, who owns the business. I now legitimately believe it was, so we will refer to him as Father Abraham to put that annoying song in your head. Me and father Abraham walked through the project and discussed limitations and difficulties that I also anticipated, so it was a relief knowing he had a plan and knew what he was doing. Day 2 was when these guys really started to stand out. I didn't have to remain at the project site to micro-manage and oversee the project at any point in the couple of weeks it took to complete. Father Abraham knew exactly what to do and did it perfectly. The pictures speak to that. I almost always have to micro-manage stupidity in projects and hate it. Somehow Father Abraham was always smiling and happy during construction, which was a bit odd, since construction is exhausting. I usually only experience this when I am speaking to someone who only knows spanish and has no idea what I'm saying. I am guessing his smiling was from genuinely wanting to be a positive reflection of his business, but maybe he loves manual labor as well. We had one project addition of adding some gates on. It put about a 3 week gap in the project since they had to get to other pre-scheduled jobs. Making the custom light weight gates was a multi-day job, but they squeezed the work in on the weekend which is nice since my wife was becoming antsy being able to move in after 6 months of pandemic delayed projects required to have our new home ready for us and our dogs. Fence, leach-field, new well, etc... All in all, they're work speaks for itself in the pictures, but I wanted to take the time to commend them on how they run their business and alleviate you from having to take on the headaches of other companies. We will be sure to recommend them to other people that come through our personal business, and friends. They will also remain at the top off our list for our own personal projects we have planned.

Abraham gave us an estimate in February which was lower than one of the big fence companies. Due to the whole Covid thing, they were backed up with work until May. In the end, I’m glad we waited. They removed an old chain link fence and replaced it with a 6ft. cedar fence. The fence was done with galvanized screws instead of nail gun and we chose pipe instead of 4x4 wood for uprights. This fence will last a long time.

I’ve used many contractors over the years but Sol O Alire, Abraham and his father have won a place at the top of my list. Professional, and most importantly quality work for a fair price.

The team did a great job, and at a fair price. I am happy with the finished wall.

Superb! They are truly artists. Very, very pleased.

Abraham removed an old boundary fence and replaced it with a new cedar one that looks fantastic. The response to my initial estimate request was very quick and when work commenced it did so steadily to completion. The work was meticulous and professional and well done. Would definitely recommend and hire again. Very easy to work with.

Sol O Alire Construction installed a beautiful gate at a rental house of mine that I'm sure will last decades. Abraham answers the phone or returns your call quickly. Thanks again for your great professional work!

I needed repairs to 2 sides of the block walls in my backyard and I also wanted both of these walls to be raised. Abraham Alire came to give me an estimate. He carefully inspected the walls and was very clear about the work his company would perform. He promptly emailed me an estimate for the work. His crew came early every day, performed meticulous work, and were very good about cleaning up after themselves on a daily basis. I couldn't be happier with my repaired and raised block walls!

It went extremely well. The back wall fence was put in within one day. I am very pleased that it only took one day and the fence is beautiful. It is a 6 ft fence and provides the privacy screen that I and my back neighbor both wanted across the back of the backyard. I am very pleased with it.

Great! We had a slow start due to Covid-19, but when they came, they installed a 120 ft wood plank fence which is straight and sturdy. It took a total of 3 days. The pricing was fair and we are very pleased. Thank you!

Once work was started, work proceeded very well. No concerns overall for work completed.

Excellent job. The increased the height of the front sides of my fence and put in an iron fence. Everything done as promised timing and estimate were right on. Definitely will use them again.

Abraham and his father are amazing!! They did beautiful work on our fence. Not only do we love their work but they were so responsive to every question. We had. During the work we had a snow storm and they kept us updated on their status and when they would be able to restart the project. I definitely recommend Abraham for any work you need!

We are so impressed by Abraham and Humberto Alire. They came out right away to see the project and made excellent suggestions and gave a very fair bid. We chose them because their price was competitive but they were much quicker to get back to us and incredibly pleasant. They put up a temporary fence for our dogs and our dogs were comfortable around them. Abraham kept in contact with us with quick replies via text and kept us apprised of their schedule. The welded corral fence and cedar latillas look awesome, as does the gate we requested. We asked for specific dimensions and openings for the dogs to see through and for a rusted/clear coated finish and it is exactly what we wanted. They were even able to do another quick side job for us when our neighbor asked for an invasive tree to be removed. They were professional, polite and clean. We will request their services again for future fencing and gates and recommend them wholeheartedly.

The outcome was excellent. Abraham and Humberto are very professional. The quality of their work is excellent. The communication was excellent. The process was very descriptive. I will use their company again for other projects.

They removed the old chain link fence (~150 ft) with gate (3 ft) in the front yard and put the parts where I wanted it. They replaced it with a stucco block wall that matches our house stucco color and nad-crafted a black wrought iron walk-in gate (4 ft). LOOKS GREAT! The hand-crafted walk-in wrought iron gate is a shorter replication of our front door gate. AWESOME! The salesman (Abraham) and foreman (Humerto) were excellent with maintaining open communication before and during the task, and were very accommodating with changes we requested as they progressed on the task. Considering the weather we had in last three weeks of Nov and first week of Dec, the work was completed within a reasonable amount of time. There was a couple people out working at 8:30 am with temperatures in the 30s every day. The crew was very polite and hard working. We are more than satisfied with the work the entire crew did and appreciate their hard working efforts. We have requested they next replace our trailer pad chain link gate (~12 ft swing) with a wrought iron one (~14 ft swing) that emulates the wrought iron gates we now have. THANKS SOL O ALIRE CONSTRUCTION TEAM!
