"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."

"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. "
"Another great experience with American Standard Painting. Jeff and James responded right away and were over the next day to look at the job. I needed 2 rooms, walls, ceiling and woodwork painted. They knew what paint to get for my price range. They told me what the best paint would cost and they told me which paint they recommended for the job. They went out and bought the paint and materials and were back pretty fast to start the job. They were exceptionally careful in protecting furniture and floors. This company did a great prep job, took care of the defects in the walls and woodwork and restored 2 windows. They worked through the evening to get the job done for me. They took care to do a great job with clean-up at the end of each job. The thing I really like about them is that they are not just painters; they are so knowledgable about other things like restoring windows and carpentry. Excellent restoration job to the windows and the reframed door came out perfect. I was impressed with their carpentry skills. These guys don't dilly-dally. They are totally focused on getting the job done. "

"Kevin and his company came through for us in a major way. I wasn't aware of his original schedule of clients and work load, but we needed our basement drywall taped/mudded and sanded in preparation for painting. Kevin stopped by to assess the job on a Tuesday and sent his crew over for the next 2 working days and made them available for painting for the next three working days after that. He provided us with a reasonable hourly rate and although it was my first time hiring a contractor, it was an easy process to get his crew in, working, and finish the work needed. As an aside, because we were under an extremely tight timeline to get the work done, coordination was required between myself and his employees (e.g. me providing enough paint and supplemental materials) since he was unable to be on site beyond initial and final inspection of the work. Finally, because I underestimated how much work was required (over 750 sq.ft of drywall requiring tape/mud/plastering AND paint, including trim), the final labor total ended up exceeding what we initially budgeted for. Part of this was due to unanticipated issues (e.g. humidity causing issues with the mudding and paint drying timely) causing increased downtime and extending how long the job took. Independent of American Property Services, my recommendation to anyone needing work done in a hurry and hiring by the hourly rate is to hire for a job with which you are skilled in the actual work being done (and just need an extra hand to move things along), otherwise, obtain a quote for the entire job to prevent cost-overruns. Overall, I would certainly hire Kevin and his crew again."
Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.
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.
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.
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?
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
