"Phillip Montour takes exceptional amount of pride in his craftsmanship and his team, and rightly so! Atlas came and assessed our home for railing needs. We discussed and settled on design options. A computer drawing was created and we got to inspect the shop and materials as fabrication time drew closer. The team came a few times to confirm measurements and create solutions. They worked with a local company to do powder coating. Let's talk results - a satin smooth finish on a rock solid, sturdy railing, which is exactly what we needed. These railings are as attractive as they are functional. We'd gone many years without these at our home, and now that we have them, I don't know how we managed without them. I would whole-heartedly recommend Atlas and would work with them again. A+ rating in our book!"

"CCE walked into our already started project & fixed errors made, came up with creative & super helpful ideas to greatly improve the job (e.g., no posts in the shop, creating areas of extra storage, etc.). The subcontractors, when hired, did a great job for us under CCE guidance. They saved us money & time by handling the pad & apron prep before the concrete pour. CCE stuck with us through real challenges, got the job done right, & made sure we were completely satisfied. We would not hestitate to work with CCE in the future."

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. 

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.

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

Yes, you can use a saw to cut metal pipes. The best saw to use is a reciprocating saw, but even a fine-tooth hacksaw can get the job done. No matter which saw you use to cut metal pipes, wear protective gear, like work gloves, safety goggles, and ear plugs. Apply a firm, steady pressure to the tool, and always ensure the pipes are secured so they don't move while you make the cuts.

While a high-speed circular saw will cut through metal, and even cut through multiple sheets at once, the fast-spinning saw blades create a lot of heat. This heat can damage paint and other protective coatings, leading to serious problems like rust over time. The cost to paint a metal roof again to avoid this damage is typically an additional $0.50 to $1 per square foot.
