I would truly recommend Country Strong Fabrication’s to everyone I know."

"CW welding built a custom gate for house. Extremely happy with the way it came out. I will continue to call Chris as I have metal work needs and refer him to anyone else."
"Mr Corrales arrived as scheduled to give me an estimated. The price was fair for the amount of work required. Mr Corrales was able to schedule the work at a very good time for me. His people showed up and completed the work in a professional manner and left the areas they worked in clean. Hector's Ornaments is a very well run organization, I highly recommend their services to fellow Angie's List users. "
"The man assigned to the project, Mark, was promptly at our house from 7:45 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. or later every day for 11 days. Some added work we requested made him decide on his own to come in on a Saturday in order to stay on schedule. We offered coffee, soda, water but he didn't want to break his work stride. He didn't want to eat lunch. He never even used the rest room while on the job!!! This man was the most dedicated, professional construction specialist I have ever met. (I was a construction OSHA safety administrator for a major corporation in Chicago.) Mark worked with integrity and had amazing attention to detail. Carl, the company owner was so easy to work with it was like dealing with a trusted friend. His showroom has every option we needed. I would readily recommend this company to any friend or family member. "
"Jesus is an amazingly talented welder and iron door designer. I gave him a few pictures of what I would like and he customized my door and gates to perfection. I have referred him to several friends and neighbors. He is extremely polite, professional, reliable, and passionate about the details of his work. He’s prices are fair and reasonable. I can brag about him all day! He’s work is incredible!"
"Desert View came out and poured an addition to our back porch. Did a phenomenal job! Job was done professionally and within the time frame we discussed. Will be calling these guys back for our next concrete project"
"They initially gave me a quote several months before the work but due to some minor issues on my side we did not contract them right away. When he came out to do the estimate he was very prompt and had a very good feel of what to do to solve my problem (long balcony railing that was a bit wobbly in the center). He was able to weld uprights and tie the railing to the roof. It looks good and he even painted it with the supplied paint. You cannot even see the welds. The railing is now strong and looks good. He cleaned up after himself and was very professional. I would defiantly recommend Williams Custom Iron to anyone with a railing issue (or any other metal project). "
There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:
Are you licensed and certified?
How long have you been in the welding business?
Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?
Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?
Do you charge by the hour or by the project?
How long do you expect my welding project to take?
What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?
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.
Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.
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
Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.
