Metal Fabrication and Restoration questions, answered by experts

Yes, many fabricators provide welding, assembly, and on-site installation to ensure structural stability.

Repairs can typically be completed within a few hours, though larger projects requiring multiple layers or precise shaping may take longer.

Steel, aluminum, and galvanized metal prove popular due to their strength, adaptability, and longevity in variable climates.

Storing brass properly, cleaning it regularly, avoiding excess handling, and making sure to only use gentle, non-abrasive cleaning materials can all help extend the life of brass. Storing little-used brass items in airtight, water-tight containers will help prevent oxidation and water damage. For more frequently used items, try not to handle them frequently with bare hands, clean them when they begin showing signs of oxidation or tarnish, and avoid harsh, abrasive cleaners or tools.

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
