Customers say: True professional

"WOW, if I could give more stars I would. Gerard went above and beyond the call of duty. I had a small railing that needed to be build and installed on my front steps. I got a few calls from company's but one said the job was too small the other keep dragging his feet then he want more money to do the job than what he quoted me. I reposted the job a few weeks later. Gerard called me a few minutes after I posting for the job, I told him what the project was, he said "yes" he could do the job but explain to me he was finishing up another project and would call me next week. I sent Gerard some photo's and measurements, a couple of days later Gerard sent me drawings of the rail. Gerard said he would be able to do it in a few days. Gerard was very professional and keep me updated thought out the process, I would highly recommended Gerard for any fabrication project."

"The welding to repair the tractor loader was of excellent quality. The welding technician also took the time to repaint the welded section and area around the new weld, so it looked great! The welding technician worked efficiently, charged fairly, and was personable."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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
