"Michael is very friendly and very knowledgeable. I was researching a few engineer firms for a foundation inspection and he called me after I put my info on Angi. His fee was right in line with (if not a little less than) the vast majority of other firms I was looking at. The kicker for me was that he was able to put me on his schedule very quickly which worked out great as I was in a big hurry to get this inspection completed. Communication was at times a little sparse/delayed (likely because he's keeping very busy) and that is the only reason I did not give it the full five stars. Would definitely recommend and hire Michael again."

"I had a specific portion of an aluminum car to be welded. I called five or six shops and got nowhere before I found Dalton. He was extremely communicative and did a great job and offered options all along the way. Highly recommend. You won’t go wrong with him."

"Had a patio glider sofa that was broken on one side that needed to be welded. Did a great job. On the other side had a bar that needed repaired. Was able to drill through the leg and attached new screw. Sofa looked great. Work was done at my house and left no mess. Arrived on time. Was very professional and polite. Would use this company again and will highly recommend ."

"I am the former President of our gated townhome community.. A vehicle ran into our heavy steel gate and bent it. It was not operating correctly because of being unbalanced and not shutting securely. These two young men were reliable and dependable and repaired our gate on the premise. The price was fair and we would definitely call on them again if needed. Experienced welders for sure!!!"

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.

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.

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.
