"Luis is an absolute Rock Star. Phoned him about a broken wrought iron gate. He came over in an hour and a half and fixed it on the spot for a very reasonable price. The work involved, cutting, welding and was done beautifully. The gate is like new. HIGHLY recommend. Had called another company with five star reviews on Yelp -- twice and they never returned my call. Luis is your guy!"

"After the large windstorm we had here in Lancaster, CA my roof suffered some major wind damage. I called them and they set me up with someone to quote us for the job. The price seemed fair and once I had signed the contract they scheduled the repair for the end of the week. The work was done well, and the employees were very professional. I was pleased with their punctuality, and the fact that they cleaned up after themselves. I would recommend Western Pacific Roofing Corp. to all my friends and family. my rof."

"A friend recommended Nir (the contractor), after the house we just bought started to fall apart. Much of the house was just destroyed. Nir came in and said something like, I will fix your house and make it better than what you bought. And he did. He is professional and kind.
   Water line in one part of house had broken, due to high water pressure ( we had not yet moved in). Then a sewerage back up, due to improperly installing sewerage pipes. 4 in. plastic pipes with no valves, instead of 6 in. ABX. There was galvanized pipe directly attached to copper pipes, so also water leaks in the walls. And it goes on and on.
  Since so much had to be replaced, elected to also update some of the house.
   2 new bathrooms, which are beautifully done. Nir is so good at design, recommendations and what may look good. Made a powder room I would never have imagined and introduced me to Venetian Plaster/paint. 
 He got an electrician to replace 13 yr old electric panel that had already started sparking/going bad. That led to new recessed lights and fire/CO2 alarm system, new light fixtures and etc.
   Fixed all the walls, replaced wood floors and so on that Service Masters had had to pull up or remove. The wood floors are beautiful. His crew were really good.
   There is more, but now the house is great and so happy with the work done. It all took about a year +. I would highly recommend Nir, this company to rehab, update or redesign your house.
  The sewer line was done by another company. Whole sewerage system out to street had to be replaced. So yes also city permits and inspectors. By the way, the problem with sewerage system was easily visible if you looked.
  An aside:   Please hire your own home inspector who answers only to you, when buying property. Was a huge mistake in this case. Learned a very valuable lesson. Previous owners, did not do upkeep in at least 9 years. Had a good handyman to make it look good for sale."

Welding questions, answered by experts

You should not do your own welding unless you have the proper training and experience. Most home electrical systems can only handle MIG welding, which creates weaker bonds than TIG welding and won’t work on certain metals or metal thicknesses. Both welding forms usually require the use of shielding gas, which can be dangerous to store at home. Additionally, welding machines create temperatures of over 3,000 degrees, and the sparks can blind you if you don’t have the proper equipment. As such, it’s usually better to hire a professional welder for your welding 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?

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.

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use. 

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
