EA Aluminum Welding - 2 - San Jacinto, California

Ashley Lozano

I strongly advise against seeking services from Edric for any welding or related work. Our experience with him has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing.

Initially, everything seemed fine, but the problems began when Edric returned our gas tank the first time. We immediately noticed significant damage to the paint—damage that was not present before. Despite us having clear evidence including photos showing the tank in pristine condition when it was in our possession, Edric consistently denied any responsibility of the damage, even going so far as to accuse us of lying. This unprofessional behavior was compounded by his demeaning and condescending communication treating us as if we were at fault.

Edric offered to have a friend of his repaint the tank. During this process they also wanted us to send out a manual of how to take the speedometer off so he could finally paint it, but after waiting over a month, nothing of the paint job was close done. He continued to blame us for the damage falsely claiming it was caused by chemical exposure, despite the fact that we do not deal with or have any chemicals near our vehicles that could have caused such damage.

At this point, we were simply fed up and requested the return of our gas tank without the repainting. Despite this, Edric made the process unnecessarily difficult, refusing to accommodate our schedule and failing to show any consideration for my husband, a United States Marine who cannot easily take time off work like everyone else. I was willing to pick up the item myself, but Edric insisted that my husband come in person to sign papers agreeing to return the tank without the paint job. While we had no issue signing the necessary documents, the overall experience was frustrating due to Edric's complete lack of communication and compassion. Both Edric and his friend demonstrated an alarming lack of effort and urgency in addressing our concerns or completing the job as promised. The delays and lack of communication were unacceptable. Upon my husband arriving, Edric ended up not making him sign any papers, so I do not understand the whole scandal over the phone about not wanting anyone else to pick it up. He also tried to justify that the chemical damage was nail polish remover. I don't know anybody in this world that would do their nails on a bike or yet, oddly in their garage, so that's a immature assumption. In the end, surprisingly on the day it was picked up the tank was painted and welded which is fine, so something that took over a month to do could've been finished over a weekend.

In conclusion, Edric's lack of professionalism, refusal to take responsibility, and complete disregard for customer satisfaction make him a poor choice for any welding or related services. We regret having trusted him with our bike and strongly recommend others to look elsewhere.

The photos below with the red circles are demonstrating the damage done from the shop. The pictures with nothing are how we had the bike in our possession.

Update: Also no one wanted it done for free, just admit to the damage especially when we prepaid you. Just do your job correctly.

I took my pontoon boat to EA Aluminum Welding - 2 to get some tabs welded onto the pontoons and I was more than satisfied with Rick’s performance. He’s been welding aluminum for several decades and unlike other shops I’ve been to, HE KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING. On top of that he’s fair and honest and his pricing is great. You can see in the picture his welds on my boat look like they are straight from the factory. It was worth towing my boat out all the way from Orange County to get the job done right.

It was nice to meet Edric and Eric. Edric welded my stainless steel v-band to mild steel wastegate flange without hesitation. Will definitely use him again for my auto projects..be sure to check out his wall of fame with musicians..

We have worked with EA Aluminum Welding for many years. They have made custom gates for our homes and were of very high standard. We have also needed some parts welded and they were able to make them and ship them to us. We are very pleased with the professionalism and reasonable prices. We highly recommend them for small or large jobs. They now have their new business in San Jacinto and we wish them the best on their new location and business.

I went to EA Aluminum welding to get step made for my game truck. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome they were very quick and completed the step in just a couple days. Super affordable and honest with the entire process. I went to multiple companies and they were trying to charge an arm and a leg but not EA aluminum. I will definitely be back with out a doubt

I’m the owner of Amermex manufacturing, I had weld some stainless steel for me and also some mild steel and it came out really good. I highly recommend their company to do your welding projects. I use them on mine and will continue to do so.
