"Service and craftsmanship was above and beyond! I ordered a custom grand entry French door for my house. What I got was a beautiful work of art that never fails to make an impression on new visitors. I spoke with Elijah, and he made sure the whole process was as smooth as possible. When he showed me the designs I could conceptualize the idea, but after the quick and easy installation was completed I was shocked at how it transformed my home. The best part about it it came with a free ten year warranty. After about a year, the hinges were a little squeaky, called them up to see if they could take a look at it. For no charge at all they came out worked on it and were in and out in a half hour. 10/10 would recommend."

"I would definitely hire Omar Vega. We asked for a simple frame for an outside table so we could bake the table top. He is very friendly, creative and did exactly what we wanted. We are very happy with our new table frame. We highly recommend Omar for any wrought iron work & metal work. Donna Z"

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

It will likely take an experienced pro less than an hour to install a ground rod, which is another reason why letting them handle the job is such a good idea. Safety concerns aside, it would likely take you much longer to install a ground rod if you decided to take this one as a DIY job.

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

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. 

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.
