"I had purchased a rear swing out spare tire kit. It needed to be welded together. I drove 2.5 hours because I wanted it done right. Garrett went above and beyond my expectations! Beautiful welds, incredible customer service and the turn around time was unbelievable! Pricing A+ Customer service A+ Turn around time A+ I will be bringing all of my welding projects to Ivory Iron Works. It is a 100 miles away but worth every mile in the saddle to get the job done Right!"

"Don was very prompt and had the request taken care of the same day as requested. I would do business with Don again in the future should the need arise. Don said that he would be available for further assistance if we need it as we move forward with our project. Very reasonably priced."

"I had a very pleasant experience with Rudy and his crew. They installed a fairly large wooden fence on my property, re-stained my 2000 square foot garage, installed some gutters and snow bars on my roof and did some deck repair. Everything was done with extreme care, attention to detail and professionalism. The quality was superb and Rudy was very communicative throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Vargas Home Improvement for anything you might need done in the way of remodeling and/or general home improvement."

Welding questions, answered by experts

The best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.

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.

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use. 

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.

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
