"Pedro and his crew did a great job. They seemed to be very particular about all the details. Left me with a nice slab of concrete and no mess. Landscaping mulch all put back in place. Their price was reasonable. I would definitely hire them again!"
"Excellent service! Pro was nice, easy to work with, professional! Never would have known he was here, he cleaned the working area so well! I would definitely recommend Blackburn Basement!!"
Angi has proven to be more harm than benefit. This page is no longer monitored, but business is still up and running. Contact me directly at [email protected].\n\nA man is the sum of his motivations. I am motivated to make sure my wife's medical treatment costs are no longer a worry. I am motivated to build the wealth my family didn't to give my children a leg up no matter how uncertain things look. I am motivated to give my pets a yard, my parents a retirement, and to make my community better for my generations I will not know. I achieve what I put myself towards because I do not see failure as an option.
"I really appreciated the quick contact and personal connection with this contractor. I felt his concern for my needs, but also thought he rushed through the details and did not get a good understanding of what I expected. I jumped on his proposal, that was in my estimate because of good ratings on HomeAdvisor and proceeded with my project. I found the results a little lacking because they left edges of concrete hanging off of low fill areas and found a crack in the MAIN concrete floor that I needed installed on top of heated shop floor. I still gave pretty positive rating because they came back and filled the area that I complained about and worked with me as the customer that was not satisfied. They did what was expected and worked with me to get the job done, even if it was extra steps. In the end... I am happy with results, so do not be afraid to work with them. JUST MAKE SURE THEY KNOW THE PLAN BEFORE WORK STARTS."
"They went above and beyond what I thought needed to be done. The prep work was excellent (forming, packing, rebar, etc.). Would recommend to any one needing patio or sidewalk work. Would hire again."
"We only had a small amount of sidewalk work, but they did an excellent job of fitting old natural stone into the original pattern. We had a great deal of other work done, and they were very efficient, very cheerful, and very reliable. I highly recommend Q & E Construction."

While a high-speed circular saw will cut through metal, and even cut through multiple sheets at once, the fast-spinning saw blades create a lot of heat. This heat can damage paint and other protective coatings, leading to serious problems like rust over time. The cost to paint a metal roof again to avoid this damage is typically an additional $0.50 to $1 per square foot.
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.
Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you’d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It’s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you’re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw.
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
Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.
Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.
