"Professional and prompt in email responses and courteous on the phone; until they were challenged on offering a fair, clear and consise contract. Email responses became non existent. I'm happy to pay more for quality work but when a workforce isn't interested in taking the time to alter words on a contract to protect both parties; I have my doubts about the office work ethic and attention to detail that would need to be existent for an efficient project."

"We hired Standard Fence to replace an existing chain link with a 4ft wood privacy fence. Quoted as a two day job. At the end of day one the old fence is down and about 60% of the new fence is installed, at 6ft height. Wife and I discussed and decided we were okay with not having them redo the completed work and adjusted to 6ft final product. I should have insisted on it being redone as this was the first of multiple cut corners. I did however raise concerns about the old chain link fence posts that were removed as there was still a fair amount of metal protruding from the ground. I was told they would grind them down to the concrete and fill back dirt. Not ideal but I gather this is the new industry standard instead of full removal... fine, if completed as stated. Day 2 work completed after no more than 3 hours, I return later that evening (after spouse paid...) to find that only one of the posts was actually ground down to the concrete as that concrete was slightly above dirt level to begin with. 4 others, included one perfectly in the middle of the primary gate, are now semi-sharp metal at no better than dirt level with the rest being higher. A tuft of grass was laid on top of the metal in the gate opening to hide it from sight. Contractor contacted by email and replied "I only could grind down so far. The dirt was binding up the grinder." No further explanation of why it wasn't possible to dig said dirt out of the way and complete the job as stated. No real attempt was made to clean up afterwards. I collected two sizable piles of scrap metal and post caps in the span of a 10 minute walk around my yard and my neighbors. This was also mentioned to the contractor with the response "I am sorry about the few fittings left around. I genuinely didn't see them." This is simply put a bold faced lie considering some of the post caps were tossed under a shed where they could not have just fallen on their own and being the size of a tennis ball are essentially impossible to miss in a brief walkaround. 6 weeks after installation the hits keep coming as the hardware used for the main gate was insufficient, or poorly installed, and the gate is already sagging with some of the screws used beginning to come lose and others having cracked the wood with how close to the edge they were installed. A second smaller gate is also sagging such that opening and latching both are a hassle. Each will require me to either install completely new hardware or make adjustments to keep them in working order before the season is out. I could continue with more details about nail points in the gate that were brought to the contractors attention not having been ground down and other hardware issues such as not even bothering to install any sort of handles or pulls. If you need a brand new fence, I believe they are capable of doing a nice job. I however didn't get such service and would advise a watchful eye throughout the job and a close inspection prior to remitting final payment. If you need a fence replaced make sure you know what their full intentions for removal are an again inspect on 'completion.'"

"It went great! We found Fisher Precious Metals on Angie's List, and after googling them, we found they had very positive reviews across the web. Although it was a 45 minute drive from our home, we felt it might be worth it, and it was. We made an appointment with John via email, arrived at 11:00, and spent just over an hour in his office. He evaluated the sterling silver set we had to sell and gave us what we felt was a very fair price. He'd given us an estimate on the value of the gold coins via email, and although the price of gold had fluctuated since he'd provided the quote, the final price was very, very close to the initial quote. We were happy to learn that they will also buy jewelry, as I have a few pieces I haven't worn in a very long time. We were very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely return to their company when we have gold or silver to sell, and we're happy to recommend them to our friends. One thing to keep in mind is that sterling silver sets are basically worth the price of the silver itself. We knew that going in, so we were not disappointed and, in fact, the price we received was a little higher than we'd expected."

Metal fabrication and restoration services FAQs
Metal fabrication is a large umbrella term that can include bending metal, welding, cutting, stamping, drilling, forging, and casting. Metal fabricators often have quite a few pieces of specialized machinery and experience in the different forms of fabrication, which means they’re able to handle many different forms of metal work. An experienced metal fabricator might be able to tackle everything from creating metal siding or roofing from raw materials to constructing a custom wrought iron fence.
The average hourly rate for a metal fabricator is around $70, but the scope of your project will play a big role in your total costs. A good way to get an estimate for your metal fabrication project is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four. A quarter of your total typically goes toward material, and three quarters goes toward labor. Some factors that can influence your metal fabrication costs include the difficulty of your project, the metal you’re using, and your specified design.
A welder is a metal worker that uses heat and specialized tools to bind metal together, while a sheet metal worker more often uses cold methods to bend thin sheets of metal into shape for siding, roofing, or some other application. A metal fabricator might use one or both of these metal working techniques, along with others, to provide a wider range of services. In many cases, a metal fabricator is the most likely to be able to handle your metal project.
