"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."

"During a recent move to Birmingham, the legs of an outdoor metal bench were broken off. Pierce's Welding Solutions was recommended to me by a local company. John Pierce was professional and very knowledgable. He also arrived on time and was most courteous. He was unable to weld the legs back on but devised a way to fix them so I could use the bench. He not only put the legs back on but painted them so they looked like new. I highly recommend his."
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.
Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.
Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.

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.
