"Adam ( the owner) is a skilled artisan with a passion for perfection. He erected 160 linear feet of stainless steel fencing. At least one-half was installed on a down slope with an an irregular surface. The fence had to be adjusted with custom fabrications so that the top of the fence was nearly level the entire distance, with only a few adjustments. The project was completed early and at contract price."

"Ram Irons called me the same day I requested a Pro metalworker. He came the next day and measured and gave me a fair price for a steel handrail on my front porch. I agreed and he returned to his shop and fabricated, returned and installed it the same day. I was impressed by his skills, quality of work and friendly demeaner. I would reccommend them to anyone who needs wrought iron help."

"New Generation was amazing. I requested help with a small welding job on a broken garage door hinge and they responded right away. After requesting pictures I was quoted a fair and reasonable price and they said they could come that same afternoon and do the welding on site. Arrived early and after looking saw there was another small crack which they said they would address as well but did not increase the charge. They fixed the broken garage door hinge and when installed everything works smoothly. Job well done. Will use again if need arises and would highly recommend."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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

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

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.

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?

Cutting rectangular ductwork requires careful measurements and the right technique. Use a measuring tape and pencil to mark the cutting lines accurately. Tin snips are excellent for straight cuts on smaller ducts. For more extensive or thicker rectangular ducts, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade is effective. 

Ensure the duct is well-supported and secure while cutting to prevent wobbling and maintain precision. After cutting, use a metal file to smooth any sharp edges, ensuring safety during installation.
