"We live in an old farmhouse that had an outside rusted fireplace trap door. We called several welding companies and no one wanted to accept the job. We finally contacted Outlaw Welding Services. Nick, the owner, came to our home and offered a solution. My husband spent a lot of time watching Nick work. His conclusion, Nick was a genius. He welded it into something that looked brand new while still keeping the character of the old trap door. Nick answered our calls, was polite, was on time, cleaned up the job site after each day and his fee was quite reasonable. How many service people do you know who meet all these qualifications. Without reservation, we highly recommend Outlaw Welding Services."

"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."

"Phoenix Iron Works delivered exceptional service in updating the building’s railing and bringing it up to code. Their team was knowledgeable, efficient, and thorough in both the assessment and execution. The final result is not only structurally sound but also compliant with safety regulations—giving us peace of mind and a polished finish. I highly recommend them for any code-related repairs or upgrades. Excellent welding!"

"After giving me an estimate for the work and the above price agreed upon, Mr. Donovan did the work in a very professional manner.  He and his worker stayed until the job was fully completed even though earlier we had a thunderstorm.  I would recommend Eastern Welding Company for any welding and wrought iron work to be done."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

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

The average cost for a welding project is about $300, with typical costs ranging from $125 to $490. However, prices can be as low as $125 for very small jobs or exceed $1,200 for large or complex projects. Welders typically charge an hourly rate between $65 and $150, depending on their experience, and many charge a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel expenses. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including labor, the cost of materials like metal rods and shielding gas, the type of metal being welded, the project's size and complexity, and your geographic location. For a precise quote, it's best to ask a local welder for an estimate based on your specific project.
