"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

We at Fegely Fabrication and Repair\n strive to maintain our reputation as a high quality, very service oriented company with our main focus being customer satisfaction.\n
"Jonathonâ  s communication was great from the start. I appreciated the updates , questions, design recommendations and patience. We are particular. The project was exactly what he quoted and he delivered ahead of schedule. We liked him and his work so much we had him do another project . One project was outdoors under our pergola and the other was indoors where we took down a wall and added railing. He took the time to understand our taste and delivered a custom design we loved. Highly recommend him !"
"He did a couple jobs for me. Started off with welding an automotive frame, and he did a great job so I had more work for him to do as well. I would definitely recommend Randy's Mobile Welding to anybody needing welding services."
"Great company to work with. Honest, hard working, professional, and easy to get along with. Best welding I've seen. I was a welder myself for years, and Dave is the best I've seen. Job was finished in a timely and professional manner. I will definitely hire them again."
To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.
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.
Yes, you can cut plexiglass by hand using a sharp knife or blade (utility knife, box cutter, glass cutter, etc.).
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.
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
