Q: Can I repair sheet metal myself?

• <div><p>With the right tools, DIY sheet metal repair can be done for small, non-structural issues, but larger repairs usually require the involvement of an experienced technician.</p></div>

Q: What are the pros and cons of steel windows?

• <div><p>Steel windows are durable and last a long time, but not in all weather conditions. If you live near the ocean, these windows might not be the best choice, as the saltwater breeze can corrode the metal. Steel windows are also more expensive than other types of windows. However, with that high price point comes a sleek, distinctive design that many homeowners find appealing, especially for modern decor. You can also restore steel windows to get a longer lifespan from them, so they can last longer than vinyl, aluminum, and even wood. </p></div>

Q: Can I do my own welding?

• <div><p>You should not do your own welding unless you have the proper training and experience. Most home electrical systems can only handle MIG welding, which creates weaker bonds than TIG welding and won&rsquo;t work on certain metals or metal thicknesses. Both welding forms usually require the use of shielding gas, which can be dangerous to store at home. Additionally, welding machines create temperatures of over 3,000 degrees, and the sparks can blind you if you don&rsquo;t have the proper equipment. As such, it&rsquo;s usually better to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-things-consider-when-hiring-welder.htm">hire a professional welder</a> for your welding projects.</p></div>

Q: What is the strongest material for window screens?

• <div><p>Pet-resistant, vinyl-coated polyester is one of the strongest window screen materials available, with some manufacturers touting a 7x increase in strength compared to standard fiberglass screens. Stainless steel security screens are also extremely strong, but they&rsquo;re not suitable for coastal areas due to the risk of corrosion from salty sea air. If sea air isn&rsquo;t a concern, stainless steel is extremely tough.</p></div>
