Customers say: Quality work

"We lived in our house 35 years without front handrails, but we needed them for safety following a fall. Joe Martin custom made a beautiful iron handrail that enhanced the appearance of our steps and porch. He was great to work with and his price was reasonable. We wholeheartedly recommend him."

"I can't explain how incredible my experience was. Two people before him couldn't get the job done and I wasted over a week with this project. I got on the phone and we immediately set up a time for this project to get started. He took into consideration my previous frustration, urgency, and even offered to come to my location. Not only was his rates the best I've found, but he got this project done in less than 1 hour. Also being a female sometimes you worry about being taken advantage of or possibly feeling unsafe-NOPE, I felt safe and I would trust him with any future projects. Professional, efficient, skillful, trustworthy. If you need metal cut, look nowhere else but here. Wish I contacted him sooner!"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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. 

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

While a high-speed circular saw will cut through metal, and even cut through multiple sheets at once, the fast-spinning saw blades create a lot of heat. This heat can damage paint and other protective coatings, leading to serious problems like rust over time. The cost to paint a metal roof again to avoid this damage is typically an additional $0.50 to $1 per square foot.

Yes, you can use a saw to cut metal pipes. The best saw to use is a reciprocating saw, but even a fine-tooth hacksaw can get the job done. No matter which saw you use to cut metal pipes, wear protective gear, like work gloves, safety goggles, and ear plugs. Apply a firm, steady pressure to the tool, and always ensure the pipes are secured so they don't move while you make the cuts.

Welders use a variety of methods in their trade. Different types of welding are better suited for different purposes and contexts. For example, stick welding is a versatile form suitable for most metals and alloys. The most common types of welding include:

  • Stick welding: $100–$1,000

  • Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Gas welding: $150 and up

  • Forge welding: $15–$25 per hour
