Customers say: True professional

"Came out to visit my son from Pennsylvania and noticed the loose front step railing at his new house. He told me someday he would fix it. But I told him it has to be fixed by Halloween for the safety of Trick or Treaters. Didn’t know who to call so contacted “Angi”. Magic Metal Ornamental Fabrication was the first and only service company to contact me. Was scheduled to come day before I was to return to my home in Pennsylvania but had phone call about breakdown of his truck on the parkway . He immediately rescheduled and came promptly on his scheduled appointment. He did a thorough job and couldn’t have been more pleased. Thank you!"

"I recently hired Arnie - Fences Plus contractor to add wooden stairs and a gate to my balcony, and I couldn't be happier with the result. His craftsmanship is top-notch, and he communicated clearly and politely throughout the process. He was always on time and his estimate was very reasonable compared to other contractors I considered. I highly recommend his services!"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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?
