Up the grade with everything on board
The New Priest Grade climbs to Groveland through more than a hundred curves, so the truck comes up loaded with everything the job needs: engine-drive welding power, the torch, the plasma cutter, grinders and a portable band saw. A broken trailer, a sagging ranch gate or a bent implement gets fixed on site, with no trip back down the hill.
Landmarks make for easy directions here: the Iron Door Saloon, one of the buildings left from the Gold Rush, the post office on Back Street, or your turn off Highway 120. If the drive is steep or gated, mention it when you call.
Questions we hear
Do you really drive out to Groveland?
Yes. It's a climb up Priest Grade from the Sonora side, and the rig makes it for jobs in town, at Pine Mountain Lake and in Big Oak Flat next door.
Can you handle a job on a ranch outside Groveland?
Yes. Ranch gates, pens, trailers and equipment get repaired where they sit, whether that's a pasture, a barn or the side of a ranch road. Text a photo and the location and we'll plan the trip.
Do you work past Groveland, on the way to Yosemite?
Yes. Highway 120 runs on through Buck Meadows toward the park's western boundary, and we cover work along that stretch too.
What hours do you work?
Regular hours are 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. After-hours and emergency call-outs are available 24 hours a day, Monday - Saturday and are quoted up front. Call or text us to schedule.
Something broken in Groveland?
From the top of Priest Grade out to Buck Meadows, call or text and the rig heads up Highway 120.
