I’ve been a certified welder for two years welding structural steel commercially. I went to trade school to become more knowledgeable in welding and am comfortable in both stick and MiG welding. I am a very versatile welder that is set up to be mobile or I can fabricate in my shop at home. I hope to meet all your needs.
"I only use James when I need some work done to my house. He responds fast, gets the work done quicker than just about anyone else I've ever used and seems very concerned with leaving his customers happy."
My background includes shipyard welding support at IMI, where I assisted with structural fabrication and repairs using SMAW, FCAW, and GMAW, as well as production fabrication work at GTI involving heavy steel components. I have also worked as a field welder, fabricating and repairing pipe fencing, gates, and structural components in demanding jobsite conditions. I am comfortable performing fit-up, plasma cutting, production welding, and repair work while maintaining quality and safety standards.\nI am reliable, safety-focused, and able to pass drug testing and weld testing. I work well in fast-paced industrial environments, take pride in my workmanship, and understand the importance of meeting production schedules and inspection requirements.\nI would welcome the opportunity to contribute my skills and work ethic to your team. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can be an asset to your operation.
"Aidan and his team were great to work with! He listened to my ideas and was patient with me while I decided on the design I wanted, never pushing me to hurry. He brought my ideas to life and was able to make suggestions on how to really make my gate a head turner. I will be using Aidan and his team for all my future needs."

Some welding projects, such as repairing pipes or fences, require travel, whereas others, like furniture repair, do not necessarily require the welder to come to you. Travel and overhead factor into the overall cost of your welding project.
Some of the most common welding projects include:
Metal furniture repair: $35–$100
Pipe repair: $200–$1,000
Small gates: $550–$750
Fencing: $1,200–$1,800
Fabricated sheet metal welding: $750–$2,500
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
Welding is the process of using extreme heat—and, sometimes, pressure—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.
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.
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
