"I rarely hire contractors and usually do every job around my place myself. I'm very particular about the quality of a job and have been burned by contractors before. I didn't have to worry about that with Master MCG Remodeling. Dylan is a hard worker and has attention to detail. He built a lean-to type of carport attached to the side of my garage. He did a great job, and the total amount came in under the estimated price even though I slightly changed the initial design. I'm very happy with his work. He showed up when he said he would, did a quality job I wanted under budget, and cleaned up after his self. I couldn't be happier with the results I got. I highly recommend him! Kelvin A."

"We are so happy we decided to go with EG welding to install our fence! We needed a 6ft privacy fence and loved the unique horizontal style fence they offered to install. We get so many compliments and we love that we have a beautiful strong fence that will last a really long time. The crew was great, they were always here when they said they would be, everyone was very professional. They have a lot of great connections and we were able to have all of our landscaping needs taken care of as well. We highly recommend using this company!"

"Bill responded quickly. He was able to diagnose the issue with my hot water heater and walked me through a few options. He offered to repair it on the spot and already had the needed parts in his truck. So much cheaper than replacing the entire water heater. Friendly and efficient. Yea for hot water!"

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. 

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

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

Yes, you can use a saw to cut metal pipes. The best saw to use is a reciprocating saw, but even a fine-tooth hacksaw can get the job done. No matter which saw you use to cut metal pipes, wear protective gear, like work gloves, safety goggles, and ear plugs. Apply a firm, steady pressure to the tool, and always ensure the pipes are secured so they don't move while you make the cuts.

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.
