How it all started

RattyFab LLC is run and operated by Mike Almeida Jr. Mike is a US ARMY Infantry Veteran, and served in OIF. His passion for “anything on wheels’ started at a very young age, and has never stopped growing. From mini bikes and go-karts to Harleys and Racecars, the passion has only gotten stronger with age. After the military Mike worked in a variety of positions in fields such as industrial production, aerospace manufacturing, and automotive mechanic. These skills and the passion for anything with wheels drove Mike to schooling for chassis fabrication. After school, Mike worked for a variety of places but ended up settling down for a while as a Millwright, or industrial maintenance mechanic. After a few years of this, Mike decided it was time for a change. He bought all the basic tools needed to do motorsports fabrication, and started RattyFab from his home garage. From there he’s shaped the business to what it is today. A successful motorsports fabrication shop focused on quality and precision, with a line of top tier products.

Philosophy

RattyFab LLC is forever evolving, but remains focused on quality, affordability, and the customer experience.

What does this mean? It means not accepting flaws in products. It means taking responsibility for mistakes and correcting them. It means delivering on the project, above expectations. It means not overpricing projects or products.

RattyFab LLC is focused on quality, in every step. This starts with quality materials. Every piece used in our projects or parts is the highest quality obtainable. No detail is overlooked. Even our packaging for products gets the same treatment. Precision fabrication & the right tools are what turn these materials into quality products.

No one wants to feel ripped off. RattyFab LLC thinks this is something that should be a foundation of business. Ensuring an affordable price for quality and safety. These shouldn’t be unobtainable. We’re consumers too. We get it. RattyFab LLC wants customers for life, not just one big purchase. I’d rather make a dollar ten times, than ten dollars once. We strive to always give you the best price possible.

The customer experience is key. Whether its communication on a project, or opening a product box for the first time, your experience matters. We’ll always take the time to explain materials, processes, applications, etc. This ensures you have the most information at hand for a truly satisfying experience from start to finish.
