"Richard Arnold sent a young associate named Tom who had extensive repair experience with 3-D as well as previous industrial experience. Tom did an excellent job welding my badly broken 3-point- hitch, tractor grader blade. I know welding but have never bought the equipment. My Dad taught welding as a vocational agricultural high school teacher. Besides a good repair at a fair price both Richard and Tom were personable and easy to work with."

"Quick reply with quote, delivered exactly what we needed. The project required 16 slab concrete steps on cast to be demolished and replaced on an apartment complex. The job was completed in the time frame that was promised. Stayed in communication throughout the process. Was completed just as promised, even painted and did an excellent job cleaning up after themselves. Every Pro should be like Southern Mobile Welding. Will be using again and I highly recommend them."

Welding questions, answered by experts

Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.

Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you’d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It’s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you’re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw.

It will likely take an experienced pro less than an hour to install a ground rod, which is another reason why letting them handle the job is such a good idea. Safety concerns aside, it would likely take you much longer to install a ground rod if you decided to take this one as a DIY job.

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use. 

There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:

  • Are you licensed and certified?

  • How long have you been in the welding business?

  • Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?

  • Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?

  • Do you charge by the hour or by the project?

  • How long do you expect my welding project to take?

  • What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?
