"WROUGHT IRON REPAIRS I just had a two section portion of our fence repaired. Initially we thought it would need to be replaced as it was bowed and several of the welds had broken loose at the base of the vertical bars, and not to mention it's 31 years old. We fortunately found SO CAL STEEL WORK on YELP. The owner, Dylan Barnett, came within one day and easily repaired by cutting about an inch out of the top horizontal bar and rewelding the vertical bars at the base. He also repainted the affected areas. He has all his equipment mounted in the bed of his truck. This company is an asset to our neighborhoods. His info: Lic#1114968, @Socal_steelwork, [email protected] 949-456-3757, Dylan Barnett"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

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.

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?
