"Our A/C was blowing but not cooling, and Stewart's got someone out shortly after I called them. After troubleshooting, they determined the motor and blade of our 30+ year old unit needed to be replaced. Due to the unit's age they would suggest replacement, but their tech thought it may be possible to figure out a match to the now-obsolete parts. They priced each of these options to us--$650 for blade/motor repair, and several options ranging from about $5500-$6500 for total replacement of the A/C unit, with the higher end including an upgrade. We discussed it, and decided upon the highest option--replacement and upgrade. Then we got the call that due to the pandemic, the Amana factory was down, and that would not be possible. Stewart's graciously gave a few suggestions and guidance toward what to ask/look for with other repair places, if we were set on quicker replacement with a premium brand--while also giving us other non-Amana options. (My understanding is they are contractucally obligated to Amana as their premium brand... so another premium brand wasn't an option through them.) Instead, we opted for the motor/blade repair, and to put an order in for an Amana 4 ton unit. We have a history with Stewart's, and they have always treated us extremely well... everything from quick service and making our options easily understood, to being aware of tax rebates and incentives. Price-wise, they are also very competitive. At the end of the day, they were able to find a match to our VERY old motor, plus the tech was even able to re-use our old blade... saving us almost $200. (And yet again, earning our loyalty.)"

"Mark did an excellent job. He cares about his work and wants to make sure you are satisfied. While providing and estimate he took note of a gutter that needed to be replaced and gave me an excellent price. I asked about a chimney cap and he came back to do that as well. I was more than pleased with the services provided and would definitely hire again!"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

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.

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
