"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 great experience with Morriss Fence. They replaced my existing fence and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Their customer service was excellent — responsive, friendly, and easy to work with throughout the project. The crew was professional, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. The installation was completed quickly without sacrificing quality, and the final result looks fantastic. They also did a great job with cleanup, leaving the area neat and spotless when they were done. Their pricing was very fair and the workmanship truly stands out. In fact, even my neighbor across the street commented on how great the fence looks and how fast the installation was. I would absolutely recommend Morriss Fence to anyone looking for quality work, reliable service, and great value."

Welding FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

Sawing your hot tub into more manageable chunks so it can be lifted easily into a truck takes several hours. Generally, 2.5 hours for smaller hot tubs and around 4 hours for larger ones with the help of one to two people. If money isn't a concern and you want to skip the physical labor, you can hire a pro to get the job done.

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.
