Customers say: Quick response

"We live in a condominium complex and any external work must meet strict standards. Benny came to the complex and based on other similar work was able to exactly match existing projects. We needed a railing extended down from an existing porch and railings. He took a series of measurements and angles and fabricated, off site, a perfect match for the current railings. The installation was a perfect match and done with a strong sense of pride and professionalism. His price was very fair and work was done in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend Duro's welding."

"Nick Graikoski came out to my home to look at the job; gave me a fair price; set an appointment date for within a few days; kept me informed when rain delayed the job and rescheduled for a couple of days later. The installation of the railings was done perfectly. The same day the railings were installed, he emailed a receipt to me. Nick was personable, respectful, trustworthy, and conscientious. Before finding Nick. I had been in touch with another contractor who I had no trust in. I would definitely hire Nick again."

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. 

Welders use a variety of methods in their trade. Different types of welding are better suited for different purposes and contexts. For example, stick welding is a versatile form suitable for most metals and alloys. The most common types of welding include:

  • Stick welding: $100–$1,000

  • Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Gas welding: $150 and up

  • Forge welding: $15–$25 per hour

Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.

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

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.
