The challenges of producing a quality finish product, while over coming the obstacles that occur during the process of completing a construction projects, is what attracted me to pursue residential construction/residential rehabilitation as a career choice. Corpus is my home. I'm here to build a reputation for myself.

"Fantastic service. We needed three mailboxes welded to an existing fence. Garcia Welding did a great job but it went beyond the project. April made sure we were one the same page the entire project. Once the crew got here it went very smoothly. They listened to what I needed and made sure, every step of the way, that they were doing exactly what I wanted. The finished project exceeded my expectation and I would definitely hire them again!"

"Very responsive, honest, reliable, affordable. Showed up on time (even early). Executed a pretty non-standard kind of design such that it matched my design drawing perfectly. Cleaned up the jobsite thoroughly prior to leaving. Would highly recommend for indoor/outdoor, decorative/functional applications. Great job."

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.

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.

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

Cutting rectangular ductwork requires careful measurements and the right technique. Use a measuring tape and pencil to mark the cutting lines accurately. Tin snips are excellent for straight cuts on smaller ducts. For more extensive or thicker rectangular ducts, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade is effective. 

Ensure the duct is well-supported and secure while cutting to prevent wobbling and maintain precision. After cutting, use a metal file to smooth any sharp edges, ensuring safety during installation.
