"Dante provided outstanding customer service and was knowledgeable, patient and very professional. We really did not want to purchase another iron window, just needed custom made brackets and welded to the iron window. Dante did a great job. Overall my wife and I are very pleased with our experience with L.A. Iron Works. Thank you HomeAdvisor for recommending this company. Gus & Judith"

"James was exceptionally professional and polite and did an outstanding job on the rails that he installed in my house with both the backyard and the front. He’s a perfectionist and I will hire him and re-hire him over and over and recommend him over and over. Very humble and a very soulful human being. I give him 10 stars not five. Thank you, James for the wonderful professional job. :)"

"Michael is very honest, hardworking and meticulous in his work. He is well versed in his field, which includes every area of construction. I have a home built in 1922 which needed a lot of work. Michael understands and appreciates the value and charm of older homes. He worked with me to restore what he could and repair what would be too costly to restore. He keeps to his word on when he will be there to do the work and does not change the amount he quotes unless I ask for a change."

"Overall, I would give them excellent - A.  This was my Montebello house.  They were on time, they had a crew of about five or six people and so they tried to get that done as fast as they could.  When they finished every day, they cleaned up really nicely.  The other thing is, I guess the lead worker, the supervisor that was leading the group, he had me come up on the roof because what happened - one of the vent pipes from their patching up all the different holes and stuff - that vent pipe, when he was fixing the vent pipe that went all the way through the house, down to the bottom of the house, I guess it was between the studs.  So he asked me hey, does this go to the upstairs bathroom and I told him yes.  I said that's probably from way back when I put copper tubing in.  The copper tubing company probably just cut that vent pipe and put a new vent pipe in.  Most people probably wouldn't even tell me about it, they'd just let me go and just cover it up.  Then I answered him hey, that's why I got you guys - because you're not only on Angie's List but a bunch of other lists and they're always rated getting a super service award.  That's what I always look for.  He told me that their boss, the boss that runs the company, told them treat each house like you're working on your mother's house.  And so they let me know everything that's going on even though it may not be stuff that other vendors or companies just wouldn't even mention.  I can't even think of any improvement.  They've all been excellent; I have no complaints.  Give them A's on everything."

Welding questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can use a saw to cut metal pipes. The best saw to use is a reciprocating saw, but even a fine-tooth hacksaw can get the job done. No matter which saw you use to cut metal pipes, wear protective gear, like work gloves, safety goggles, and ear plugs. Apply a firm, steady pressure to the tool, and always ensure the pipes are secured so they don't move while you make the cuts.

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

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

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.

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.
