BUILT TO HOLD

We're the Rangel crew, a family welding outfit based right here in Chicago. If it's metal — or wood and metal together — we've probably built it, fixed it, or welded it back together. Gates, railings, fences, window guards, AC cages, carports, structural steel. We work all over the area: Chicago, Berwyn, Cicero, Oak Park, Riverside, Brookfield, Forest Park, and the suburbs around them.

We put this site together so you can see our work before you pick up the phone. There's nothing staged here — every photo in the gallery is a job we actually did, shot right where we finished it. You'll also find real reviews from customers who let us work on their homes and businesses, and if you have a question at 2am, the chat assistant will do its best to answer it. Anything bigger than that, send a quote request (we take those any time, day or night) or call the office Monday through Saturday between 8am and 9pm.

Most of the folks who call us just need something fixed right. A gate that's been sagging for a year. A railing their kids shouldn't lean on. A fence before winter hits. We show up when we say we will, we tell you straight what it'll take, and we build it to hold. That part isn't a slogan — it's how we've kept customers calling us back for their second and third jobs.

The credentials, for those who check: we're AWS D1.1 and D1.6 certified, licensed, and insured, with decades of welding, fabrication, and carpentry behind us. But honestly, the better proof is the work. Take a look at the gallery and the reviews, then give us a call at (708) 477-9119. We'd be glad to take a look at whatever you need done.
