"Tony responded quickly tp my request for quote and came by next day. We had one of the horizontal beams on our deck approximately 17’ above ground that was decayed and deck was sagging. We got a quote quick, very reasonable price and Tony arranged for 2 men to do the job just 2 days later. Workmanship was excellent and site was left neat and tidy. Very satisfied and will contact Tony when we have more work."

"Tony advised me what he was going to do to rectify the failed welding issue. He called me the following day letting me know he had completed the repair and the trailer was ready for pickup. The charge for this work was very resable. He was a very personable person to work with. I will use his service again."

"Excellent experience with Braden from Black Bear Fabrication. We needed a window well grate modified for a new vent hood, so the grate would fit back in place. He was quick to respond, great communication prior to beginning the job. On the day he arrived exactly on time and ready to go. He was completely prepared, took a few measurements, and got to work. His workmanship is outstanding, he did a PERFECT job for us. I will recommend him to anyone that needs mobile welding and fabrication. He is a gentleman, and a high-level craftsman. Thank you Braden!"

Welding questions, answered by experts

Welders use a variety of methods in their trade. Different types of welding are better suited for different purposes and contexts. For example, stick welding is a versatile form suitable for most metals and alloys. The most common types of welding include:

  • Stick welding: $100–$1,000

  • Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Gas welding: $150 and up

  • Forge welding: $15–$25 per hour

The best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

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.

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.
