"Marvin was the first person who contacted me about my project and I informed him that I wanted to get two more bids before I made my decision. After getting the two other bids I ended up going with Marvin at MG welding. He completed my job within the same week that I contacted him. I would TOTALLY hire him again =)"

"Luke has done work for me twice, and both times he was outstanding. On my Camaro, I'd had headers installed but they didn't fit right. Luke came out and fabricated custom metal to close the gap, and the finished exhaust looks completely seamless. On my Ducati, I had a fuel tank leak that had bugged me for a long time. I tried to fix it myself and couldn't. Luke showed up with his mobile rig and TIG welded it in about 15 minutes. The welds are impeccable, and the price was very reasonable. His responsiveness and quality are unmatched, and I'd hire him again without hesitation."

"I had a difficult time finding a fencing company in the San Antonio area that offered the right combination of quality, affordability, and reliability. After meeting Mark with Noah’s Ark Fencing, I knew I had found the right person for the job. I had an old chainlink fence from a previous project that needed to be removed. Mark provided a fair estimate, gave me a clear timeframe for completing the work, and followed through exactly as promised. From start to finish, Mark was professional, punctual, and committed to doing quality work. He used high quality materials and went above and beyond to address even the smallest concerns I had. His attention to detail and willingness to make sure everything was done right really stood out. I would absolutely recommend Noah’s Ark Fencing to anyone in need of fencing services. Mark’s work is 10 out of 10, and he truly goes above and beyond for his customers. Excellent work, fair pricing, and someone you can count on!"

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

The cost to weld aluminum averages about $14 to $22 per pound. The type of metal factors into the overall cost of any welding project due to the cost of the materials and the expertise required to work with it. Some of the most common metals used by welders include:

  • Magnesium alloy: $7–$16 per pound

  • Low-carbon steel: $11–$12 per pound

  • Stainless steel: $13–$15 per pound

  • Copper/brass: $24–$29 per pound

  • Cast iron: $38–$79 per pound

  • Titanium: $60–$85 per pound

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.

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.
