"I went online at 1:00 AM and got an immediate response from Branagan's Metal Works. I read the email and went to sleep. I texted Mr Branagan at about 12:30 PM and he said that he would be at my house to pick up the piece that I needed repaired. By 6:30 that evening Mr Branagan had the piece repaired and delivered back to me. This was an exceptional service. The piece looks brand new and works very well. I would recommend Branagan's Metal Works to anyone that needs any welding done. It was really a great experience, and I am very grateful for his exceptional work."

"Our company hired iWeld Pro to fabricate and install a custom blower housing for one of test ducts in our facility. He tied in water and air in the same room where it was needed. They were very professional and efficient."

"I needed entry railings at the front porch of my 60 year old home. Kevin gave me a quick estimate, adapted the railings to my slightly uneven porch, and completed the job cleanly and in the agreed upon time. I have recommended him to a relative who also needs metal railings at his home entrance. I wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again."

"Mike's awesome to work with. We have had him build us a lot of custom brackets and obstacles for our ninja warrior gym. He's easy to work with and gets the work done quick! Super quality work as well. Would highly recommend for any custom metal projects you have."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

Welding is the process of using extreme heat—and, sometimes, pressure—to attach two pieces of metal. In contrast, metal fabrication is a more involved process that can include welding, sheet metal work, bending, and other forms of metal manipulation. Metal fabrication is a large-scale project that may or may not involve welding, while welding is more often a step in larger fabrication projects.

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

Yes, you can cut up a box spring., but you’ll need to do so in layers. You can clear the fabric and fluff away to reveal the springs before removing them as well.

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.
