"The hinges on my vinyl privacy gate were broken and the gate was pulling away from the two posts it was connected to and the entire gate was sagging on the driveway and had to be manually lifted to open or close so I could get my car out. I called several gate/fence contractors to give me estimates on the repair. Each one said it was a very poor job to begin with and they didn't know how it could be repaired. None of them could do it. Carl said the same thing except he was so sympathetic and so sorry he couldn't help me. So when I decided I would have to replace the entire gate instead, he was the first one I called back to get an estimate for complete replacement. When he arrived, rather than give me a price, he examined the gate again and said there must be something he can do to fix it and wanted to think about it some more. He came up with a plan. Came back in a couple of days with the material and equipment and fixed my gate! He did what at least six contractors said couldn't be done. He saved me over $1,000. He called me in a few days to make sure everything was o.k. and that the electric motor contractor was able to adjust the motor. But that's not the end of it. During our recent storms (January), the hurricane strength winds forced the gate open and broke the bracket that is welded into the gate from the motor and is the arm that swings the gate. I couldn't open the gate, straighten the arm or pull it off from the gate. I couldn't get my car out of my driveway. The motor contractor wouldn't come out until the rains had stopped. I finally called Carl and explained the situation even though I knew fixing this was not his area of work. He came over almost immediately and dismantled the motor from the gate and the gate was free. When the rains stop, I will get the electric motor person out to hopefully weld it back. This was way above and beyond the call of duty for Carl. He wouldn't even accept payment for a service call. He said people don't help each other enough, and I needed help. I really don't know what I would have done without him. Can't say enough about what a fine person he is."

"Dante provided outstanding customer service and was knowledgeable, patient and very professional. We really did not want to purchase another iron window, just needed custom made brackets and welded to the iron window. Dante did a great job. Overall my wife and I are very pleased with our experience with L.A. Iron Works. Thank you HomeAdvisor for recommending this company. Gus & Judith"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you’d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It’s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you’re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw.

Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.

Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.

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.
