RB Ornamental Metal Services

Ron was very helpful in suggesting what metal working was needed to correct the situation. He quickly and professionally performed the necessary alignment, and my art work is now again ready for display.

Ron was great! He communicated, did great work, and offered good prices! He went above and beyond to apply a level of finish on the product that wasn't required because he takes pride in his work!

The owner, Ron, and I worked together through several iterations of designs to find exactly the look I wanted at a price I could afford. We came up with the design together, then adjusted it as issues arose. Loved working with Ron as he's clearly an artisan that takes pride in his work. I can't say enough for the process of creating what I wanted and for the end result. I got *exactly* what I wanted. :)

The project went well from start to finish. Ron was pleasant to work with and very punctual.

Ron came through on very short notice on a tough schedule. Working through the weekend despite personal conflicts, Ron was provided the next level of service that builds confidence for future projects. His attention to detail was great and the finished product was excellent.

It went well. Ron is a talented and creative metal artist with a passion for his craft.

Ron was very professional and prompt, good communication and kept me up to date with all the details that needed to happen in order to repair the door and attach the handles. Very personable and easy to work with. Out of the three companies I contacted Ron was the most thorough in his examination of the work and precise in what needed to be done.

Ron worked with us to design and build custom guardrail fence and railing. He worked with us on every detail, including design color matching. We also have Ron build a custom wood rack that turned out to be a functional piece of art.

Ron is the consummate professional. He met us on a Friday night (the day we took possession of our commercial space) to discuss our needs and how he could best accommodate our tight timeline for the building of a large bar base. He got to work promptly the next day! Ron completed everything from the initial measurements, CAD drawings, purchase of materials, to the construction of an extremely solid foundation for our marble bar top (as he said, even a truck couldn't mow the bar base down!). We are thrilled with the result and look forward to working with Ron on any future projects.

Everything turned out great and we were very pleased with the results.

I can do chin ups from it and no one will ever know its there!

Ron was very responsive and did an excellent job in repairing a fence that is showing significant age. He was prompt in responding, showed up as promised and got the job done. His work isn't the least expensive, but he takes the time to do the job correctly.

The overall results were beyond my expectations. The railing is superb, it really "completes" the back patio. Ron designed it to our specifications, simple but elegant, and it came out just right. Because it was a custom design, it took a little while, but Ron completed it within the timeframe we requested.

I saw the report on Ron's work in the Angie's List magazine, and the picture with the article was exactly what I was looking for for my house. I contacted Ron and from the start was impressed by his helpfulness and understanding of the work I needed. The finished product is exactly what I pictured and looks as if it was always on the house.

We decided not to proceed at this time.

The work was fast and better quality than I had thought was possible.

I can't say enough great things about Ron Brandt - super responsive, skilled, conscientious, prompt and bascially awesome. I had a support post for a wrought iron gate that was rusting out and not supporting the fence. Ron came out and assessed the problem and explained carefully that the most practical (i.e. cost-effective) fix would be to place support arms on each side of the post. These would be sunk into the ground and then welded to the support post. He was extremely concerned about hitting any underground wiring or piping before starting. We determined that the the digging would be fine and he promptly scheduled the repair and appeared as promised. All would have been fine but during the welding, except that electrical wires inside the post heated up and burned out. This was totally not Ron's fault and was completely a risk of making the repair. Instead of just walking away and leaving me to try and find someone else to fix the electrical, Ron came back the following SUNDAY no less, to make the repair himself. He was able to run new wires and effect the repair for only a nominal additional cost which I was happy to pay. That's what I call conscientious. Ron is skilled, pleasant and good at his work. I only wish I had more things he would be willing to work on. I would absolutely use him again and give him my highest recommendation.

Ron was over the top in being responsive and meeting our needs. He assessed our requirements, followed up immediately and provided his product in a very short period of time as the railings were needed immediately due to an injury. I would definitely work with him again and recommend him.

It started with an introduction call with Ron to understand the job, scope of work, timeline and processes, so that we both understand how and when etc. Then an estimation with some recommendation, which was very helpful. Pictures, Text Messages, email were used during the work in progress, and completion. Thank you.

Ron is very clearly motivated by getting it right for his customers, and did an excellent job working to understand the aesthetic desires and functional needs of our custom exterior handrail. Ron made the entire process painless, and was prompt, proactive, and communicative throughout the process. He's definitely an easy person to work with, and definitely recommend taking him on for your job. In fact, I'm putting my money where my mouth is and now ramping up with Ron on a second, even larger project.

Great service. Performed as expected professionally and without any hassle

The hinges of my gate was damaged by my other worker after he forcefully tried to remove them in an attempt to replace it with non-rust proof hinges and screws. Ron came and inspected it, and offered me the options to replace the gate with good quality hinges, or to creatively put on new hinges without soldering to keep the gate functional for now. To save on cost, I went with the second route. The work was done very well. The gate swings smoothly an effortlessly. I can tell he used good materials, and the workmanship was equally good. What I like about working with Ron was that he was open in discussing different solutions to solve the problem. When it is time to replace the gate, I will certain get in contact with Ron.

RON DOES IT AGAIN! We couldn't be more happy with his work. Among the many jobs Ron did for us, his first job was creating a structure for our bar. He had created and built the steel frame for the entire bar. He customized the steel frame to fit the resin panels I ordered and even installed them onto the frame. Pleased with his work, I had him built me two beautiful wine racks for the dining room. And again, I had him built a beautiful liquor shelf in the private dining room (please see previous review for details). All were built based on his own drawing and ideas. His recent job with us was to build a table with some shelving for the center of the bar. With his creativity, Ron created a beautiful copper table, island like, for the bar. It was absolutely perfect and exactly what we needed. Ron's creativity and professionalism is what keeps us going back to him with any steel job we need done. Thank you Ron! *Ron's work listed here can be found at Dirty Water Restaurant & Bar, located on Market Street between 9th and 10th (under the twitter headquarter building). All are welcome to come and check out his work!

Ron came in with a daunting task to design and build a bar for one of the newest restaurant to open in San Francisco and did an amazing job! Ron was professional, knowledgeable in welding and metals, and very creative. His creativity led us to extend his primary work for the bar. In addition to designing our beautiful bar, Ron designed our wine racks (dual steel wine racks that holds 864 bottles), the stainless steel dual grill structure, and the steel glass shelving in our private dining room. Ron was very easy to work with and went above and beyond in research to provide us with design inputs. I would definitely hire Ron again. We welcome anyone to come by and check out his work in our restaurant.

Ron was courteous and responsive. He completed our railing repair on time and on budget.
