"Marco from Art Line Construction reached out within minutes of starting this project on HomeAdvisor. He was extremely courteous and offered to visit the work site the very next day at a time convenient to me. He showed up on the site, quickly assessed the need and even took back the part that he had to prep for the work to be done. He offered up to come back on a sunday and get the work done when i was available. Did the work absolutely fabulous. He is very courteous, freindly and has offered to come back if there is any issues. Good Job Marco, happy to have contracted you! thanks!"

"I hired Angel to rebuild the roof structure of my 12x15 metal patio gazebo, which was crushed in the freak snowstorm Oct. 2018 (I did not take the fabric canopy down in time for winter storage). It was a pretty tricky job, because the roof supports had to be recreated/welded up at the exact same angles as the original in order for the new canopy to fit properly. Angel came and took measurements and pre-fabbed most of it in his shop. He came back with his two sons, and they reinstalled the whole thing in a few hours, including priming/painting the raw steel tubing. I was just going to just knock the old structure down and buy a new one, but that would have been a major PITA, not to mention big bucks. (Replacement parts are not available and need to be fabricated from scratch) Anyway, I now have the whole thing back together and even better than new because Angel used a heavier, thicker gauge of steel tubing. Highly recommend Angel and his crew - fair price and excellent workmanship!"

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

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

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.

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

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.
