"Charlie and Son are outstanding. My job took some extra effort and a bit of creativity and they exceeded my expectations by far. Very reasonably priced, very professional, both are trustworthy gentlemen. The work looks great and I think they may have been hired by a couple of neighbors who were impressed with the work they were completing at my home. They installed a vintage fence and gate in keeping with an existing and different yet different fence on a Brooklyn brownstone. It looks amazing, completely seamless and I couldn't be happier. Their welding skills and iron work is second to none. I'd rate them higher than 10 of 10 if I could.. I highly recommend them."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.

Cutting rectangular ductwork requires careful measurements and the right technique. Use a measuring tape and pencil to mark the cutting lines accurately. Tin snips are excellent for straight cuts on smaller ducts. For more extensive or thicker rectangular ducts, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade is effective. 

Ensure the duct is well-supported and secure while cutting to prevent wobbling and maintain precision. After cutting, use a metal file to smooth any sharp edges, ensuring safety during installation. 

Yes, you can cut plexiglass by hand using a sharp knife or blade (utility knife, box cutter, glass cutter, etc.).
