"I required welding services for brackets in a DIY home project, and Decor Iron Works truly exceeded my expectations. Despite my project being relatively straightforward compared to the impressive work featured on their Instagram account, they completed the job promptly and precisely according to my specifications. I wholeheartedly recommend Decor Iron Works for all your welding needs."

Customers say: Quality work

"We could not be happier with the outcome of our fence project. PIW fabricated and installed wrought iron fence and gates to match with an existing section of the fence that we had in our backyard from the original builder. We could not find any contractor who could match the existing fence until we met Isaiah. Not only he matched it with the style we had, he created a much better version of it. The quality of his work is phenomenal. He was very professional and a pleasure to work with, listened to our needs and brought valuable recommendations. I am perfectionist and he and his team totally exceeded my expectations. We will stay with him for our next projects."

"The workmanship and service is astonishing. We have an apartment building that went through a major transformation with 3 new staircases and the upper landings. They also revamped all the steel security doors on each tenant door. They subcontracted out the painting and the exterior painting turned out just as expected. The planning, execution and completion date exceeded our expectations. We have several investment properties and Ariel goes over and beyond to meet our deadlines when needing to get something done in a short timeline. His staff is professional, timely and courteous to all the tenants. Thank you for all you do all for making my job as an owner so much easier to h"

"Creig was extremely professional and responsive.  He got everything done on the list (which grew by a couple of items during his first visit to the home to provide an estimate).  Due to the urgency of getting the home ready for professional photos and listed for sale, Creig agreed to perform the work on a Saturday, even though he already had one job scheduled that day.  He stayed until 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, in order to get the work done.  I will definitely call him again for any home repairs!

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

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.

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. 

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.
