Competent and committed!
Calculating the transport and a day or two to reassemble the rigging, we only could allow the Doñaque team with 4 days to do the welding, reinforcement, crack inspection and polishing of the 8mm aluminium tube. Not only was the wishbone back on time, having them work long hours over the weekend, but the whole list of welding jobs had been completed too. The wishbone has not given us any problems since either. Big shout for this team of competent and committed welders from Palma. Good job and big thank you guys!

Top-quality.
It was a pleasure to work with the Doñaque team and side from the required top-quality and attention to detail, it is also good to find a company that works on time and over time whenever required. Lastly the price/quality balance is well in order. In short: highly recommended.

I've been working with Rubén Doñaque Weldings for several years for the different boats under my command. I may affirm without any doubt that they are great professionals, achieving works in the scheduled time, and always with great results. They are, in my point-of-view, one of the best metal-workers in Mallorca.
