"The owner of Renova kept a personal interest involved throughout the project.  We explained to him what we needed and our budget
and he came in with several cost effective options including substitution of materials.  There was some time delay in completing the project because of tile sampling and stock on hand.  The only thing we would request different is getting the counter tops ordered earlier as this delayed the project by almost three weeks. Over all his workers were extremely polite and very skilled.   The quality of the work for which we paid was exceptional. Even when we made a mistake on the paint color his worker was able to resolve the problem and still not lose any time on the project.  On the next major project we will be calling Renova first."

"Wow! This is a detailed review, but Jose worked at my house for a month straight, dawn till past dusk. He deserves this review. Jose is amazing. I hired him to complete a HUGE job that required someone who was versatile, knowledgeable and hard working. My project was to completely demo and rebuild our front and side yards. We had professional plans which helped immensely. Jose and his team started working within hours of shaking hands and within the week, he removed all the trees, shrubs, oleanders, stumps and chainlink fence, trenched the footer and built two very nice quality walls that tied into our back wall. Each wall had reinforced pillars to hold custom metal slated gates. (Jose also custom made our gates!!) I had my paver samples of what I wanted, so Jose took me to the paver supply store to make the purchase. Sadly, they missed their estimated delivery date AND once we finally got it, they messed up the color of my order. Jose was AWESOME in helping me get what I really wanted. We sent half of the order back and Jose sourced the remaining material from other places. He really went over and beyond to get us what we wanted. The error (not Jose's fault) NEVER caused the project to go off schedule. He simply moved on to the next phase, concrete forms began the next day and within a week we had all our concrete poured and treated to look like aggregate. His team were detailed about the slope of their pieces to ensure proper drainage. Jose trenched 75 feet for electrical and gas to be run from the backyard to the front. Once the gas plumbing specialist ran the pipes, we concreted the side yard and began on the driveway. All the paver installation for the driveway and courtyards required a detail oriented person and Jose's guy was great! The plans were followed perfectly. The driveway was laid like a brick wall with multiple borders and courtyards were installed with a herringbone pattern. The larger courtyard was slightly off (not exactly square) and as soon as I mentioned it, Jose tore it back out, recut the pavers and remade it. The small wall and pillars were build to spec, plumbed and powered properly. Jose gave me some great recommendations for lighting, plants and concrete materials. He would even meet me there himself to ensure we got the "contractors" rate. Jose was also really good at recognizing your style and offering some suggestions and would even bring samples that he thought would look/work well. He installed all the lighting, which were 7 tree lights, 7 path lights, 4 well lights, led strips under the pillars and 3 wall lights. We installed about 40 plants and he set up the irrigation system for all those to be watered. We also installed about 2K sq feet of grass along with a sprinkler system. Jose fully painted my house as well as replace new siding on the back side of the garage that was molded and replaced other wood as needed. The final piece of the puzzle was the Porthole Courtyard Wall. The blocks were sourced in Phx and Jose installed them. I was not happy with the quality of the grout lines, so Jose had a guy spend all day sanding it down to look right. He also welded the metal piece on the top to finish it off. All in all, Jose did an amazing job given the HUGENESS and variety of the project. He never seemed like it was too much. He was professional and eager to do it right. My only feedback is this. 1.Give him some space in your project for him to keep tools as needed. This helps workers start quickly day to day. 2. Be flexible with your budget. Jose will look out for you and if he uncovers something that needs to be fixed, he will let you know. I never felt like he was "sticking it too me", but things happen in this world, I you give Jose the tools to complete your job, he will see it through. 3. Over communicate. Jose speaks English far better than I speak Spanish, but we did have some miscommunications. We had a lot of success when I would use pictures, drawings, tape on the walls, flags in the ground. Jose wants to do it right the first time, so help him make sure he knows what you want. LASTLY: Jose offers an 18 month guarantee on all his work. He has already come back twice to address sprinklers and planters."

FAQs for welding projects in Higley, AZ

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.

The average cost to hire a welder is about $300, with an average rate ranging from $65 to $125 per hour, depending on their experience and the project type and size. Aside from labor costs, some other charges you’ll need to pay include the cost of the welding material and the cost of the shielding gas that makes welding possible and safe. When you’re interviewing welders for your work, you can ask for an estimate based on your project specifics. In some simple cases, like welding gas lines or common welding projects, local welders may charge a flat hourly rate with add-ons if necessary.

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?

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’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’t have the proper equipment. As such, it’s usually better to hire a professional welder for your welding projects.

Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.
