Customers say: Quick response

"GREAT COMPANY I wanted a fence on one edge of my property, so I got quotes from Sierra Alta and one other fencing company. Sierra Altaâ s price was much lower, and they responded much faster, so I signed a contract with them. They started work two days earlier than promised. Watching them work was a lesson in professional fencing. The finished product is perfect, exactly what I wanted. And to my amazement and gratitude, they stayed around for an extra hour to make sure that passing pedestrians did not mess with the fence posts while the concrete set. They were all great to deal with â the owner, and his brother who headed the work crew."

"Box T Construction built a steel fence for me and installed gates and automatic openers. They did a great job. They weren't the lowest bidder but their bid was detailed and they were excellent at what they do. They show up on time, work a full day. My fence required a lot of cutting and welding of steel. They finished in a timely manner and cleaned the area up each day as they were working. I would hire them again."

I’m a third generation welder fabricator/ Mechanic. Been around the industry my entire life and have been doing the work for over thirty years. I love having the knowledge and experience to be able to build or repair pretty much anything made of metal or drivable.

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.

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

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.

The average cost for a welding project is about $300, with typical costs ranging from $125 to $490. However, prices can be as low as $125 for very small jobs or exceed $1,200 for large or complex projects. Welders typically charge an hourly rate between $65 and $150, depending on their experience, and many charge a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel expenses. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including labor, the cost of materials like metal rods and shielding gas, the type of metal being welded, the project's size and complexity, and your geographic location. For a precise quote, it's best to ask a local welder for an estimate based on your specific project.

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.
