Is LVL more affordable than steel I-beams?

• <div><p>Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-steel-i-beam-cost.htm">cost of a steel I-beam</a>, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain custom metal structures?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, rust prevention treatments, and protective coatings extend lifespan and appearance.</p></div>

Q: How many metal sheets will I need?

• <div><p>The average roof requires about 17 metal sheets, but that varies according to house size and roof style. Each roofing sheet takes about five minutes to measure and cut, though this depends on your level of experience. If your roof has a steep slope, gables, and skylights, for example, it may require extra sheets to account for waste. Roofs with a steep slope over 3:12 typically require more sheets because the pitch adds extra inches. How much exactly you will need depends on the height versus the width of the roof. If you are unsure of the calculations, check with a local roofing professional.</p></div>

Q: What materials are commonly used in sheet metal repairs?

• <div><p>Common materials used include aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, and copper, each selected for their properties suited to specific repair needs.</p></div>

Q: Can I do my own welding?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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&rsquo;t have the proper equipment. As such, it&rsquo;s usually better to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-things-consider-when-hiring-welder.htm">hire a professional welder</a> for your welding projects.</p></div>

Great work ethics and craftsmanship. Diaz Welding did an amazing job and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for contractors to do metal work. They constructed our 20' x 24' metal-roofed carport after just a few days of work and were upfront about pricing and schedules. Very pleased...
