"I would highly recommend this company for any type of custom metal project. I had a rusted out fake aluminum chimney vent cover on my roof that needed to be repaired for a home inspection before I sold my house. I had called HVAC and roofing companies to see if they could replace this and their quotes were outrageous and it would take at least 2 to 3 weeks before they could do the job. In their eyes, this was just a small job to them that wasn't really big profit. I decided to look on home advisor as my final last straw just to see if I could find something a lot cheaper. Within 30 minutes I was contacted by Bob from C.C. Ironworks and explained to him what I needed repaired and even sent him a picture. He came to my house the very next day to check it out in person and to give me an estimate. Within minutes he drew up a sketch of what he could do and told me he could do the job the following week. Not only that, Bob saved me hundreds of dollars!! The finished cover turned out better than I ever imagined and on top of that, he even painted it for me. I appreciated the fact that even though this was a small project, Bob explained to me that no project is ever to small for them. What this company can do with metal is unbelievable! One more thing that I appreciated was the fact that his company is roughly 20 miles from my house so it wasn't exactly a short drive for him."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to weld aluminum averages about $14 to $22 per pound. The type of metal factors into the overall cost of any welding project due to the cost of the materials and the expertise required to work with it. Some of the most common metals used by welders include:

  • Magnesium alloy: $7–$16 per pound

  • Low-carbon steel: $11–$12 per pound

  • Stainless steel: $13–$15 per pound

  • Copper/brass: $24–$29 per pound

  • Cast iron: $38–$79 per pound

  • Titanium: $60–$85 per pound

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. 

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

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.
