"Pictured is the before battery compartment. All rusted and hopeless. Josh invented a perfect plan to weld a tray to the two sides that were not rusted. Worked perfect. Even an RV place commented on the great job he did. What looked like a hopeless cause, turned into solid craftmanship. I Just hope he's available and doesn't get too busy.."
"The communication from Diamond Cut Solutions was the best I've ever experienced from any contractor of any sort. Friendly, courteous, provided project updates and always on time. Excellent experience."
"Went pretty well, one of my sprinkler lines was hit during the install, but I knew that could be an issue going in. One of my gate latches was welded very poorly, but the company was pretty quick to fix it once I found the issue."
"I felt they took care to do a great job and the fence looks beautiful. Tanner was a very nice guy to work with and I felt he really took care with the project"

"All went very well! Loved working with Sam and his crew. He always responded to my questions very quickly. Any issues were quickly resolved. Love how the house looks now! Total time was 2 months from initial demolition of bathroom to kitchen finish. Seems reasonable based on extent of what we had done. Any delays were due to tradesmen not being available but Sam kept us in the loop on that. Would hire again!!"

"Initial consultation was with Amy and my husband. Since I wasn't sure what styles were discussed in my absence, she quickly emailed me pictures of a few different options. I made multiple changes before the install date, and Amy took it all in stride. When it came to the first day of work, the demo guy came out to check out our existing chain link. Apparently it was more work than he thought and had to reschedule to come out a couple days later when he had more time. Due to a miscommunication and misunderstanding (we said we would take care of disposal of the old fence and they thought it meant we would entirely remove and dispose the old fence and then I didn't read the quote well enough to notice that they did not include removal in the price), it took a little bit longer than expected. No big deal, that's on us to more clearly communicate and read better! Once the old fence was taken out and the posts were set, the fence was up in little more than a day. The guy who put it up was SO fast, he motivated the other contractor we had building our deck. Wish I would have known that Artistic could have built that, too, because we would have loved to have that up in two days as well! Any issues or concerns I had in the process, I just called and talked to Mary in the office and she sorted everything out. I would highly recommend this company to anyone and everyone. All of our neighbors have come over to tell us how much they love our fence!
Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you’d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It’s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you’re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw.
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.
Some welding projects, such as repairing pipes or fences, require travel, whereas others, like furniture repair, do not necessarily require the welder to come to you. Travel and overhead factor into the overall cost of your welding project.
Some of the most common welding projects include:
Metal furniture repair: $35–$100
Pipe repair: $200–$1,000
Small gates: $550–$750
Fencing: $1,200–$1,800
Fabricated sheet metal welding: $750–$2,500
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.
To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.
