"Drew is awesome to work with. He custom designed my steel railing for me and I absolutely love it. He couldn't install it on my stairs due to space issues so installed it in the ground. It is so beautiful and sturdy. I highly recommend this company."

"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

"Jonny was a pleasure to work with and we are REALLY happy with our new railings. The craftsmanship was excellent. Jonny also went the extra mile in the project, designing and installing custom wrought iron railings to match existing ironwork. In addition, Jonny was really courteous and prompt. He took all of our needs into account. Our railings are worth every penny we paid for them. Thank you, Jonny!"

"The team was great! Do to the fact it was a hectic period in my life, I  needed most of the communication to be done over e-mail which they did. The quality of work exceeded my expectations. The unit is on the 10th floor 
and build staff made a point to tell me how respectful the team was to them and to others in the building. This group made what could have been a stressful experience, an experience where I did not have to think about the details of prepping the unit for sale.

"I called them after finding their website.  They gave us a quote.  I only had one side of the house painted as it need re-shingling in some areas.  They took me to see a house in the Newport area.  The paint job looked absolutely beautiful. I hired them.  They started the job within a few days. They knew a lot about restoration of old houses and windows. They worked efficiently and professionally. Fast clean up at the end of the day."

FAQs for welding projects in Bristol, RI

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.

The average cost to hire a welder is about $300, with an average rate ranging from $65 to $125 per hour, depending on their experience and the project type and size. Aside from labor costs, some other charges you’ll need to pay include the cost of the welding material and the cost of the shielding gas that makes welding possible and safe. When you’re interviewing welders for your work, you can ask for an estimate based on your project specifics. In some simple cases, like welding gas lines or common welding projects, local welders may charge a flat hourly rate with add-ons if necessary.

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?

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.

Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.
