handyman, and more. I have extensive experience in various trades, including millwrighting and welding. For over a decade, I have traveled extensively, utilizing my skills as a jack of all trades in the construction industry. Currently, I reside in the Lee Summit area and offer my services as a side job. I have a mobile welding rig and a plasma cutter set up, and I am willing to travel as needed. I am open to any job, regardless of its size. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any tasks that require my attention. Currently, I am only available for evening and weekend work. However, I assure you that I do not compromise on quality when it comes to labor. I strive to deliver exceptional craftsmanship that would be suitable for my own home.

Customer has plans to install doors in the doorways, but shipping had pushed them back, so we just left the base trim long and will cut back as needed for the door trim once the doors come in.

"I called Dustin to get my rusted out railing repaired. He returned my call within 10 minutes. I was amazed that he came out the same day and fixed it. It is stronger and looks better than it has since I bought the house. His prices are great and I will be recommending him to anyone that needs fence/rail/welding work done."

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use. 

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.

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.

The average cost for a welding project is about $300, with typical costs ranging from $125 to $490. However, prices can be as low as $125 for very small jobs or exceed $1,200 for large or complex projects. Welders typically charge an hourly rate between $65 and $150, depending on their experience, and many charge a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel expenses. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including labor, the cost of materials like metal rods and shielding gas, the type of metal being welded, the project's size and complexity, and your geographic location. For a precise quote, it's best to ask a local welder for an estimate based on your specific project.

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.
