"The initial consultation was very pleasant. We agreed to take our shared fence down so they could access the area needing work. They would be entering from our neighbors yard. They called my husband and told them they would be starting on Oct. 9. My husband waited all day for them to arrive, no call, text , or email explaining their absence. They arrived the next day. Workers got all but concrete poured. My husband noticed they did not pull the stump out as agreed right next to where they were pouring. He contacted the leader and told him he under no circumstances did not want concrete poured until the stump was removed to avoid future damage to our new foundation. The worker said they would remove it. I got home the next day and noticed they concrete was done and the stump was still there. I also noticed they had broken some of my curbing and did not fix it. My neighbors yard was littered with leftover gravel mix, concrete and trash. They came back to collect their tools and picked up some of their trash. My husband came home and looked over their work with the lead guy. I pointed out that I was upset they had broken curbing and did not bother fixing it. He said he could come back in a few weeks to fix it. (It has been 3 weeks and it is still not fixed.) We questioned the stump still being there after we were very clear about what we wanted. He said the "cut the root that went under our foundation. In summary, they did a great job with the concrete, but left a mess for us to clean up. They broke things said they would fix them but did not . They did not follow through with what my husband said in regards to not pouring until the stump was removed."

Welding questions, answered by experts

The cost to weld aluminum averages about $14 to $22 per pound. The type of metal factors into the overall cost of any welding project due to the cost of the materials and the expertise required to work with it. Some of the most common metals used by welders include:

  • Magnesium alloy: $7–$16 per pound

  • Low-carbon steel: $11–$12 per pound

  • Stainless steel: $13–$15 per pound

  • Copper/brass: $24–$29 per pound

  • Cast iron: $38–$79 per pound

  • Titanium: $60–$85 per pound

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.

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.

Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you’d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It’s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you’re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw.

The best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.
