"I recently had the pleasure of working with PJJ Welding and Fabrication on a project to build a custom metal gate for my home. I had a very specific design in mind, and I was worried that I would not be able to find a company that could meet my needs. However, PJJ Welding and Fabrication was able to take my vision and turn it into a reality. The owners, Paul and Jake, were very knowledgeable and professional. They worked with me to create a design that was both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The work was done quickly and efficiently, and I am very happy with the results. The gate is a beautiful addition to my home, and I know that it will last for many years to come. I would highly recommend PJJ Welding and Fabrication to anyone who needs metal fabricating work done. They are a reliable and trustworthy company, and they do excellent work."

"We hired Reynolds Fence Co. to remove an old, wood and wire section of fencing and replace it with chain link to match the rest of our fencing. We also had them rework a gate. They arrived on time, kept us informed, and completed the job promptly. We are very happy with the quality of work and would not hesitate to hire them again."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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

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. 

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.

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 best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.
