"Julie provided OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE which means.. responsiveness, reliability, and timeliness. I contacted at least 6 companies to help me install a safety railing in a condo building with a unique 1929 design. She worked swiftly with me to confirm the materials and design and set up a date/time for the work. She showed up on time and completed the job when she said she would. And she was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. Thank you Julie for an exceptional customer experience."

"As soon as the contract was signed, Rick scheduled the work quickly. He came with his workers and remeasured everything. We discussed the design and he gave me some catalogues to look at designs. I selected a combination of two designs. Rick and I discussed the finish on the railings and I selected black. The railings were installed. There were a total of three different steps, each different from one another. The railings in the front of the house needed to curve with the conture of the steps. One other was just a straight forward design which was straight. The final set went in an area where I plant my vegetables. The railing needed to be spaced so I could still have access to work in the garden yet allow safety on some very steep steps.The work was completed within a few days after starting. When the final coat of paint was finished I was not completely satisfied with the finish. Rick came to inspect the work and was not satisfied either. He sent the painters back to sand and repaint all the railings. He suggested instead of the black an antique bronze might be a better choice for color. He was right. I was very pleased with the final paint.
Rick has completed several projects for me and I have been very satisfied with all the work. 
I will call him again when I am ready for my next project.

"The concrete and gate install went relatively quickly. The patio cover required permits which took some time. Once received, the patio went up quick and the planter brick repair was also quick. Overall a good partnership that I will hire again."

"they are located near the coast so they are unfamiliar with where Lowes is. With that said, installation went well. I pushed to get new copper piping as we were taking out my old unit. I didn't argue the price asked, but I expect superior installation and superior service. I also have an undersink unit where the owner says to take out and plumber says its up to me. So I left it. Hmmmm. Hope I made the right decision. They would have had to go to plumbing store to do it perfectly for me. They are all very nice, hardworking. Most importantly I already had a back flush unit I was taking out due to age, and this unit is a really nice one. I'd do it again. Really nice water in the whole house including spigots on the house. But does not include irrigation system. This is the water I wanted and my hair my skin and my dishes are all perfect now. 10 year warranty, no maintenance and a yearly checkup included.

"James is a great guy.  He was professional, friendly, courteous and was very patient as we kept finding wood that needed replacing.  He milled the siding, replace 2x4's, removed electrical box, light switches etc.  He works very efficiently as he is paid by the hour, which worried me a little, but we are so pleased with the quality of work, the type of wood he used and his work ethic.  Absolutely and totally glad we called him!   Thanks James!

Welding questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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

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. 

Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.
