"Yolex Richardson did a very good job removing my running board on my pickup truck. The brackets on the running board were welded to the frame of the truck. He cut the metal off between the frame and running board so the running board could be removed. It was an eyesore with rust and my truck is almost mint condition. So happy to see it off and as I said he did a great job removing it. Also Yolex is a very nice guy with great personality and we got along very well. Highly recommend him for other jobs and I will surely recommend him if others have problems."
"I am a developer in the DC area. They do all of my work. They are the most cost-effective and most reliable welding company in the area. The best quality work as well."
"They were professional and delivered as promised. They removed the railing to replace the rusted part, welding a new piece to the existing railing. Then they reinstalled the railing. They strengthened the cement base of the second railing. Both railings were sanded and repainted. Our railings now look as good as new."

"I needed creative additions welded to old exercise equipment. Work was done fast and as hoped for. Mr. Seymore then painted over the welds, and the equipment was ready for use in a few hours. I'd call for them again for welding projects."

"I had an amazing experience with Walker Welding LLC welding work! He built me a sturdy, beautiful fence and completed it in such a lovely turnaround time. The quality of his craftsmanship really stands out?strong, clean welds and a professional finish that makes my yard look great. Not only is the fence durable, but it was also done quicker than I expected. I couldn?t be happier with the results and highly recommend his welding skills to anyone looking for reliable, top-quality work!"
"Working with Ace Mobile Welding was honestly shocking in the best way possible. They actually answered the phone, showed up when they said they would, and finished the job without disappearing for three business weeks. In construction terms, that’s basically a miracle. The quality of work was top tier. Everything was clean, solid, and done right the first time. You can tell these guys actually care about their craftsmanship instead of just hitting everything with spray paint and saying “she’ll hold.” The crew stayed professional, communicated clearly, and kept the work area organized the entire time. No chaos, no guessing games, and no one standing around pretending to look busy while holding a tape measure. Good people, honest work, and the kind of company you call again instead of warning your friends about. Definitely recommend Ace Mobile Welding to anyone who wants the job done right without the usual contractor headache."
Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.
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
Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.
Cutting rectangular ductwork requires careful measurements and the right technique. Use a measuring tape and pencil to mark the cutting lines accurately. Tin snips are excellent for straight cuts on smaller ducts. For more extensive or thicker rectangular ducts, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade is effective.
Ensure the duct is well-supported and secure while cutting to prevent wobbling and maintain precision. After cutting, use a metal file to smooth any sharp edges, ensuring safety during installation.
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.
