"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!"

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?
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.
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
Since water heaters are primarily made of metal, they’re commonly accepted by scrap yards and collectors. Don’t expect to fetch a high price, though—water heaters are mostly steel and aluminum, which aren’t high-value metals. Some components are made of more valuable metals, like brass and copper, but they’re a small portion of the heater and won’t affect the price much.
It will likely take an experienced pro less than an hour to install a ground rod, which is another reason why letting them handle the job is such a good idea. Safety concerns aside, it would likely take you much longer to install a ground rod if you decided to take this one as a DIY job.
