"Erik was very prompt in responding to my request for bids. He was able to start only days later. The handrail he built for my porch steps matched the existing porch railing and he attached it firmly to the stone steps. Prompt, quick turnaround, quality work, very pleasant to deal with. And did I mention about half the cost of the other bidders?"

"I had a steel light that got bent in transit. Charles had to knowledge to know that we couldn’t heat the metal without damaging the wires, so he cold-bent it, making tools to fit the job. Super friendly and professional. I would absolutely trust him with my metal work. The light is in now and it looks great!! Good as new!"

"We found a speck home being built by Baker Builders. We went under contract just in time to pick out all of the finishes. We worked primarily with Travis, who was great to work with. He communicated well on any changes, delays, or issues. At the time we were building there were several supply chain issues, so we had to make some changes along the way. Travis always provided an alternative or solution anytime we needed to make a change. The house turned out beautiful! We are very happy with our custom home."

"My gate and part of my fence were destroyed by the Marshall fire winds. I got quotes from several contractors, including how they would approach it so that even in future high winds it would be very sturdy. Luke's design idea was better than all the rest. He and his helper rebuilt it in a day and it is incredibly sturdy as well as aesthetically really nice. The price was a bit higher than other contractors, but the quality was superb."

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

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