"Justyn and his staff at PureLife Welding were very accommodating and professional. My visit to the large modern shop was eye-opening - PureLife can fabricate just about anything made of metal...design, cutting, bending, assembling and of course welding! My job was a relatively minor fix by comparison to the big projects underway, but the employees dropped what they were doing and welded my badly damaged 46" mower deck while I waited...approx. 20 minutes - that's amazing customer service! I was back to mowing the same day! I must also say that the price was very reasonable too! I highly recommend PureLife Welding for any metal work you need!"

"We hired Standard Fence to replace an existing chain link with a 4ft wood privacy fence. Quoted as a two day job. At the end of day one the old fence is down and about 60% of the new fence is installed, at 6ft height. Wife and I discussed and decided we were okay with not having them redo the completed work and adjusted to 6ft final product. I should have insisted on it being redone as this was the first of multiple cut corners. I did however raise concerns about the old chain link fence posts that were removed as there was still a fair amount of metal protruding from the ground. I was told they would grind them down to the concrete and fill back dirt. Not ideal but I gather this is the new industry standard instead of full removal... fine, if completed as stated. Day 2 work completed after no more than 3 hours, I return later that evening (after spouse paid...) to find that only one of the posts was actually ground down to the concrete as that concrete was slightly above dirt level to begin with. 4 others, included one perfectly in the middle of the primary gate, are now semi-sharp metal at no better than dirt level with the rest being higher. A tuft of grass was laid on top of the metal in the gate opening to hide it from sight. Contractor contacted by email and replied "I only could grind down so far. The dirt was binding up the grinder." No further explanation of why it wasn't possible to dig said dirt out of the way and complete the job as stated. No real attempt was made to clean up afterwards. I collected two sizable piles of scrap metal and post caps in the span of a 10 minute walk around my yard and my neighbors. This was also mentioned to the contractor with the response "I am sorry about the few fittings left around. I genuinely didn't see them." This is simply put a bold faced lie considering some of the post caps were tossed under a shed where they could not have just fallen on their own and being the size of a tennis ball are essentially impossible to miss in a brief walkaround. 6 weeks after installation the hits keep coming as the hardware used for the main gate was insufficient, or poorly installed, and the gate is already sagging with some of the screws used beginning to come lose and others having cracked the wood with how close to the edge they were installed. A second smaller gate is also sagging such that opening and latching both are a hassle. Each will require me to either install completely new hardware or make adjustments to keep them in working order before the season is out. I could continue with more details about nail points in the gate that were brought to the contractors attention not having been ground down and other hardware issues such as not even bothering to install any sort of handles or pulls. If you need a brand new fence, I believe they are capable of doing a nice job. I however didn't get such service and would advise a watchful eye throughout the job and a close inspection prior to remitting final payment. If you need a fence replaced make sure you know what their full intentions for removal are an again inspect on 'completion.'"

Welding questions, answered by experts

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.

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

Costs depend on material type, labor, design complexity, finishing requirements, and installation needs.

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.
