"My wrought Iron fence had a lot of rust. It is 60ft in length. I called a couple companies (including the company that originally installed it). They stated they would need to take the fence down to have it sand blasted. I didn't want to do that since I was worried about the re-installation due to the type of pavers that it is bolted into. I found Mobile Arc who was willing to do the work in place. They did a fantastic job and the fence looks like knew. Kyle was very conscientious and great to work with. I would highly recommend him for this type of work. Not only does it look like new, but it was accomplished for a fraction of what the other companies were wanting to charge. I would definitely hire him again."

"Tim not only did an excellent job on the install, but he repaired the wall around the countertop and touched up the paint so I didnt have to! Tim was totally reliable (he came when he said he would). I'll definite call him again."
"Matt was very professional, told me his rate up front and how long it would take to finish the repair to my truck frame. He arrived on time, worked quickly and finished in less time than he originally qoated! That saved me a lot of money! My truck frame is solid and safe again! Thanks Matt!"
Welding is the process of using extreme heat—and, sometimes, pressure—to attach two pieces of metal. In contrast, metal fabrication is a more involved process that can include welding, sheet metal work, bending, and other forms of metal manipulation. Metal fabrication is a large-scale project that may or may not involve welding, while welding is more often a step in larger fabrication projects.
There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:
Are you licensed and certified?
How long have you been in the welding business?
Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?
Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?
Do you charge by the hour or by the project?
How long do you expect my welding project to take?
What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?
Since water heaters are primarily made of metal, they’re commonly accepted by scrap yards and collectors. Don’t expect to fetch a high price, though—water heaters are mostly steel and aluminum, which aren’t high-value metals. Some components are made of more valuable metals, like brass and copper, but they’re a small portion of the heater and won’t affect the price much.
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.
To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.
