"Ariel and Great Metal Designs were outstanding on all fronts. Ariel quickly responded to my inquiry and helped diagnose the issue and propose a repair solution for our iron fence. He did this all through photos I shared with him, and delivered a practical and cost efficient solution. Within a day I had a contract and a scheduled repair. They are incredibly easy to work with, and Ariel is very personable and charismatic = this combination delivers an outstanding service experience. Would highly recommend to all!"

"They installed about 160 feet of redwood privacy fence with three gates and an additional gated enclosure for a heat pump. For the wood fence itself they did excellent work. Quality material and accommodated some unusual features which meant the entire job was done by one contractor. The owner suggested and installed special gate latches that allow entry with a code on a keypad, which actually got them the job. Their failing was the crew doing the work did not understand how that special gate latch worked, and how to construct a gate to properly use it. I am handy with tools so I was able to spend a day to modify and add to their work to make the latch work. Not everyone is in a position to do that. They over-promised in that crew doing the actual installation needed more guidance for a completely successful installation. So if you have a standard fence and gates with standard Home Depot style hardware, I would recommend them. But if you need something unusual they really are not able to handle it and you need to plan to get that skill set elsewhere."

I have been welding since I was a young teen. I used it as a hobby to begin with and it slowly grew into a career. I can do any type of welding necessary and have always been successful in this trade. I love this trade I think that has a lot to do with it as well it's always been something that came easy to me.

"My initial interest was in the deal that cost $125 to paint one room in one day. When the owner came to my house to evaluate the room I asked him how much extra it would cost to paint a fence an exterior fence that was probably 4 to 5 feet long (one side only) and a gate that went from my driveway to my backyard (both sides).. He said he had another deal that I could take advantage of which would be $450 for one day with with two painters and I would have to provide the supplies. I agree to this. He indicated I would need 2 gallons of paint for the bedroom and 2 gallons of paint for the fence. I would also need to get some tape and plastic. I would also need to move all the furniture in the room to to make space for easy access for the painters. I complied with all his requests. The painters showed up on time very polite and the work they did was excellent. However I was told that I needed to get another gallon of paint for the fence which I did. They did not finish the fence that day. The Second gallon of paint that was requested for the bedroom was not even used. The owner was there at the end of the day and I gave him a check for $450. I can't remember whether I was told for I assumed that a little bit more money would be required to send the painters back to complete the job .One painter was sent back the next day. Again I needed to go back and get yet another gallon of paint. The painting was finished and in approximately a half a days time. When I asked how much more money was needed I was told $450. I was outraged. I spoke to the owner and expressed my rage but he told me that he needed to cover his costs and since this was such a great deal that this was the amount. I express my views that I didn't think this is right but tbut he told me again that this is what he needed to cover his costs. At the end of our conversation he said I could pay whatever I want.But I paid the 450 because I'm an honest person. However I will NEVER and this is an capital letters never use them again. I felt like I was taken advantage of. What I assumed was going to be a $450 job plus the paint turned out to be a $1500 job. It was not the $1500 job. Again I would like to express that his workers were very professional they did a great job and I couldn't of asked for more in that respect

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.

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.

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

Yes, you can cut up a box spring., but you’ll need to do so in layers. You can clear the fabric and fluff away to reveal the springs before removing them as well.

Since water heaters are primarily made of metal, they’re commonly accepted by scrap yards and collectors. Don’t expect to fetch a high price, though—water heaters are mostly steel and aluminum, which aren’t high-value metals. Some components are made of more valuable metals, like brass and copper, but they’re a small portion of the heater and won’t affect the price much.
