"This man is a artist. If you want quality welding and metal work, ie: fence, gates, railing, unique pieces, etc, I would recommend him. Also, very responsive and just nice."
"I can't say enough positive things about Nick and his team. He was patient and extremely easy to work with, understood our needs, and designed and installed some exceptionally beautiful, strong, and functional stair railings for our front steps and porch, which we sorely needed after my husband's recent illness. He arrived to do the work as scheduled, even in near freezing temperatures and with a winter storm approaching, and the result was perfection. I don't think I have ever had a more successful or satisfying home project, and Nick has my highest recommendation!"
"Garreth is a true Professional. The handrail was completed and installed within the timeframe discussed. The handrail was well made and is extremely sturdy as well as attractive! I would not hesitate to recommend Garreth for any type of welding work needed. His completed work is Excellent!"

"THEY DID A VERY FINE JOB. THE TEAM WAS FRIENDLY, KNOWLEGEABLE AND HARD WORKING. THE JOB WAS CLEAN AT THE END OF THE DAY. THEY WORKED SWIFTLY AND EFFICIENTLY.

"We had cracks in the dyed mortar of the bricks above our garage. Grady took the time to match the color, even with the color having aged 10 years, and you would not even be able to tell that there was new mortar. If your project is anything like ours, you will not be disappointed."
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.
Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.
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
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.
Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.
Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.
