"My infirm cousin was due to visit in a week, and would not be able to enter our home without the assistance of a railing on the front steps. I called Jeremy at Backbone Welding after reading the reviews here on Home Advisor. We needed a sturdy, durable railing quickly, but my husband and I had specific ideas about how we wanted it to look and function. Jeremy was not fazed in the least. He worked with us to design our railing and got it done with time to spare for a reasonable price. He is a good listener, a gifted problem-solver, really knows his trade, and is nice to boot. He was a pleasure, and we are looking forward to working with him again on an upcoming gate-rebuilding project."

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

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

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

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.

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

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.
