"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!"

"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."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to weld aluminum averages about $14 to $22 per pound. The type of metal factors into the overall cost of any welding project due to the cost of the materials and the expertise required to work with it. Some of the most common metals used by welders include:

  • Magnesium alloy: $7–$16 per pound

  • Low-carbon steel: $11–$12 per pound

  • Stainless steel: $13–$15 per pound

  • Copper/brass: $24–$29 per pound

  • Cast iron: $38–$79 per pound

  • Titanium: $60–$85 per pound

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.

The average cost for a welding project is about $300, with typical costs ranging from $125 to $490. However, prices can be as low as $125 for very small jobs or exceed $1,200 for large or complex projects. Welders typically charge an hourly rate between $65 and $150, depending on their experience, and many charge a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel expenses. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including labor, the cost of materials like metal rods and shielding gas, the type of metal being welded, the project's size and complexity, and your geographic location. For a precise quote, it's best to ask a local welder for an estimate based on your specific project.

The best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.
