"John showed up early, went right to work, had everything he needed to complete the job, and in my estimation did a.great weld. Having had some welding experience myself, I believe it'll hold. I'd recommend him to my friends."
"Moises was excellent with his communication, information he provided, and the detailed attention he gave my quote. He answered all of my questions to my satisfaction, and didn't require any money up-front (rare these days). He gave me a timeframe, which he kept to, and completed the job recently. The railing looks AMAZING, and it's nicer than I expected. The ONLY issue I had is I paid full price, and there a few nicks and burrs, which he promptly came out and "fixed" by sanding/filing down, and spray painting. I would have liked there to be NO issues, so the powder coating wouldn't be compromised. I'll have to watch those trouble spots for the paint to fade/peel. Otherwise they were EXCELLENT, and I"d HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!"

handyman, and more. I have extensive experience in various trades, including millwrighting and welding. For over a decade, I have traveled extensively, utilizing my skills as a jack of all trades in the construction industry.

I am open to any job, regardless of its size. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any tasks that require my attention. Currently, I am only available for evening and weekend work. However, I assure you that I do not compromise on quality when it comes to labor. I strive to deliver exceptional craftsmanship that would be suitable for my own home.
This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes.
The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use.
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
Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.
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.
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?
