Metal Fabrication and Restoration questions, answered by experts

After finding a local pro, you can inquire about steel fabricators' costs by sending details related to the dimensions, angles, and intended use. Most fabricators will use drafting software to bring your project to life before you settle on a price.

There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:

  • Are you licensed and certified?

  • How long have you been in the welding business?

  • Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?

  • Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?

  • Do you charge by the hour or by the project?

  • How long do you expect my welding project to take?

  • What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?

The best tool for cutting metal ducts depends on the duct's shape and thickness. For round ducts, a duct cutter provides accurate, clean cuts. Reciprocating saws equipped with metal-cutting blades are versatile and suitable for both round and rectangular ducts. They offer speed and precision, especially for thicker metal. 

Tin snips are handy for intricate cuts or smaller ducts. However, an angle grinder with a metal-cutting wheel is powerful and efficient for large or thick metal ducts. 

To restore an appliance’s shine, clean the surfaces using a natural cleaning solution, and then use a mineral oil or olive oil and a soft microfiber rag to polish stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the graining. A little goes a long way, so dip the cloth in a small amount of oil. If you have any excess, continue with a dry part of the microfiber cloth to soak up any remnants.

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.
