"We hired Paz Fencing to redo our very big fence which fell in the last wind storm. When we did research we received 3 different estimates. My husband and I were very nervous as to who to pick but we are so glad we went with Paz Fencing. Leo and his entire crew were very respectful of our property every single day. They were puntual and communication was there everyday due to unexpected rain.They had to work in the rain on our sloped backyard and were careful to not attract mud into our decks which is almost impossible but they managed. His price was very reasonable and the quality of his work is meticulous!! We had hired another company about a year ago to only redo a part of the fence and we can definitely tell the difference as far as workmanship and quality of the lumber used. I sure hope we dont have to redo our fence for a while but I will know who to call back. Paz Fencing is the best in Sonoma County!! Thank you Leo!!"

"Had an old fence that has been leaning for a while that I have been putting off for too long. Reached out to H&S to come out for an estimate. He responded fast and his quote was definitely within my budget! Let’s just say I love my new fence and couldn’t be happier with the work."

Welding questions, answered by experts

Welding is the process of using extreme heat—and, sometimes, pressure—to attach two pieces of metal. In contrast, metal fabrication is a more involved process that can include welding, sheet metal work, bending, and other forms of metal manipulation. Metal fabrication is a large-scale project that may or may not involve welding, while welding is more often a step in larger fabrication projects.

It will likely take an experienced pro less than an hour to install a ground rod, which is another reason why letting them handle the job is such a good idea. Safety concerns aside, it would likely take you much longer to install a ground rod if you decided to take this one as a DIY job.

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.

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.

Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.
