"Our experience with Majestic Welding was fantastic. Our fence and gates are beautiful. We received a great price and the quality can’t be beat. We are so thankful and are going to use Majestic Welding again on our next project."
"DezIron is a reliable welding company. I will be working with them again soon. I must add, in addition to a perfect final product, Jason drafted the design of this project multiple times until our ideas fit together perfectly. I was on a budget and he worked with me to make it work for me. I wish all contractors had such integrity. 5 stars / A+ all around Carmen -- Happy customer"
"James was very easy to locate and easy to work with. He explained everything in detail and completed the job in a few days of hiring. My fence looks great. I will hire again if I have fence/welding jobs."
"I hired them to build and install a entry gate and patio fence. I hired this company based on a telephone call with the owner Mike. No referral or reviews to fall back on but my gut said he would do what I needed done.
What a pleasant surprise. They proved they are a solid veteran owned business. MS Welding were responsive and professional. Quality materials and build.
Unlike many contractors I have worked with, Mike communicated with me throughout the process to make sure I got exactly what I wanted.
My wife and I are so pleased with the end result.
I would not hesitate to hire this company again. I just found out they do painting and concrete also. I have no doubt they do this type of work well."
"I was very impressed with Atx welding . I looked all over for local welders and no one was able to takle the job and Giovanny was verry helpful and met the expectations that i was looking for"
"We have hired Austin Knight Welding on several occasions. From structural support beams, fencing and metal gates. The owner, Myles Parnell, was competent and thorough with his work. Finished projects within said time frame and within budget. Very polite and respectful of our home and property. Anyone looking for quality work will not be disappointed. We highly recommend Austin Knight Welding for any job large or small. Nancy Walters"
"Mr. Fernando was the best to work with! He installed some gates in our patio and did a job well done. His prices were also super fair and I totally recommend him for welding/ fence needs!"
"High reccomandation for AAA Fence Pros. Reliable company who does high quality work. They arrived on time and work took exactly as long as they said it would. A+++"
"Excellent. We had Edward install heavy, wooden barn doors ? at our home office. Installation required building the supporting beam to carry the weight of the doors (about 110 lb each), cover it with sheet rock, then finish and paint it all. We also had him install a second deadbolt lock on our front door, an aluminum ladder for attic access, and a patio ceiling fan. We rate his work as excellent and recommend him highly."

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.
This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes.
The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use.
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?
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.
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.
