Why should I pick steel for my new support beam?

Q: What factors affect fabrication costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on material type, labor, design complexity, finishing requirements, and installation needs.</p></div>

Q: Do welders need to be licensed or certified?

• <div><p>Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don&rsquo;t. However, it&rsquo;s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they&rsquo;re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.</p></div>

Q: Can I request a custom metal design?

• <div><p>Yes, professional fabricators can create custom pieces, including railings, sculptures, signage, and architectural elements.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a lintel and a beam?

• <div><p>The difference between a lintel and a beam is what loads each is responsible for supporting. A lintel is a type of beam that is responsible only for supporting the load above an opening, such as a window or door, and transfers the weight to the side walls around an opening. A beam supports the slab and transfers the load to nearby columns, which then disperse the load to the ground.</p></div>

I hired this company to help me convert a carport into a garage. I accepted the contract and was then lied to repeatedly over the next 7 months as to when the work would begin. I was told, among other things, that my job was small and they couldn't just pull their guys off of the big jobs to...

He was good enough to do the one job and then recommend the right person for the other job I was going to hire him for. Work was thorough, cleaned and painted the weld. Left the area clean. Oh, he showed up on time. I highly recommend.

We had a slab leak and my husband tried to repair it himself. The last weld would just not hold, so we called a professional. Al came in and welded the pipe that was in an awkward spot and difficult to reach. That was nearly a month ago and the weld holds.
