"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."

From the time I could walk, I was alongside my father on hardwood flooring job sites, learning the trade from the ground up. More importantly, I learned values that have become increasingly rare today, a passion for quality, taking pride in your work, doing the very best you can, and never cutting corners. I was taught that your name is only as good as the craftsmanship you leave behind. Those lessons became the foundation of the business I own today, and they continue to guide every project we take on.\n\nI believe quality takes time. That’s why I focus on one project at a time, ensuring every detail is done right.\n\nMy name is on every floor I complete, and I take pride in making sure each one reflects the quality and craftsmanship I stand for. In the end, the only thing that remains is the name you leave behind.\n\nMingo

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

The best thing to cut metal pipe is a durable pipe cutter that is made for metal. You may want to measure the diameter of the pipes before purchasing a pipe cutter to ensure it will be able to cut your metal pipes. Opt for a heavy-duty option to cut through metal like steel or cast iron.

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 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.

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
