Q: What’s the difference between a welder and a metal fabricator?

• <div><p>Welding is the process of using extreme heat&mdash;and, sometimes, pressure&mdash;to attach two pieces of metal. In contrast, metal fabrication is a more involved process that can include welding, sheet metal work, bending, and other forms of metal manipulation. Metal fabrication is a large-scale project that may or may not involve welding, while welding is more often a step in larger fabrication projects.</p></div>

Q: Why is my brass turning black?

• <div><p>Brass that is turning black is experiencing oxidation, a reaction caused by exposure to air. The oxygen found in air reacts with the metal and begins to cause discoloration that will become darker and more widespread with time. Regular cleaning will remove oxidation and prevent it from progressing on brass items.</p></div>

Q: Do services include welding and installation?

• <div><p>Yes, many fabricators provide welding, assembly, and on-site installation to ensure structural stability.</p></div>

Q: How many metal sheets will I need?

• <div><p>The average roof requires about 17 metal sheets, but that varies according to house size and roof style. Each roofing sheet takes about five minutes to measure and cut, though this depends on your level of experience. If your roof has a steep slope, gables, and skylights, for example, it may require extra sheets to account for waste. Roofs with a steep slope over 3:12 typically require more sheets because the pitch adds extra inches. How much exactly you will need depends on the height versus the width of the roof. If you are unsure of the calculations, check with a local roofing professional.</p></div>

Q: How do you make stainless steel shine?

• <div><p>To restore an appliance&rsquo;s shine, clean the surfaces using a natural cleaning solution, and then use a mineral oil or olive oil and a soft microfiber rag to polish stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the graining. A little goes a long way, so dip the cloth in a small amount of oil. If you have any excess, continue with a dry part of the microfiber cloth to soak up any remnants.</p></div>
