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."

Small jobs welcome

"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

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.

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.

Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.

Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.

You should not do your own welding unless you have the proper training and experience. Most home electrical systems can only handle MIG welding, which creates weaker bonds than TIG welding and won’t work on certain metals or metal thicknesses. Both welding forms usually require the use of shielding gas, which can be dangerous to store at home. Additionally, welding machines create temperatures of over 3,000 degrees, and the sparks can blind you if you don’t have the proper equipment. As such, it’s usually better to hire a professional welder for your welding projects.

Yes, you can cut up a box spring., but you’ll need to do so in layers. You can clear the fabric and fluff away to reveal the springs before removing them as well.
