Customers say: True professional

"Ty Herbert delivered my dream fence. He made my $85,000 pos of a house (piece of
sh*t) and made it look like a million bucks!
I wanted the whole ordeal, 60’ linear feet of wrought iron, black powder
coated fence, finials, ball caps, 8’ gate, 4’ fancy gate w/ matching side
panels, concrete mow strip and all. He
even sent me a photo of the fancy gate before they powder coated it to see if I
was satisfied with the design. See
photos.
His crew was super fast and accurate. I started out looking for aluminum fencing
but switched over to wrought iron when I met and spoke w/ Ty. His work is impeccable! The crew was so clean it doesn’t even look
like anyone’s been there.
His communication instantaneous and was via Angie’s list and
then email and phone. I’ve never had
such an effortless contractor experience.
Two days before he started, I noticed Atmos flags in my
front yard. It didn’t even dawn on me to
call the utility companies. Plus he acquired
the permit and did not even charge me for it!
Smooth as silk. I wish I could do
it again! If anything goes wrong he’ll
be out to fix it but I can see after close inspection that this fence is
PERFECT!
All of this gorgeous work for only $2500, ½ down.
Thanks Ty and best of luck in your future
jobs. I think you got the raw end of the
deal w/ the other reviews

"Jacob responded very quickly. I sent photos to him. His quote was 1/3 that of another Angi contractor quote. Once scheduled, he arrived on time and finished the job within a few hours. He explained the work before, during, and upon completion. Excellent work! I hope we don't need future fence repairs or welding but I'll call Jacob at Shepherds Welding if we do."

Welding questions, answered by experts

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.

You should not do your own welding unless you have the proper training and experience. Most home electrical systems can only handle MIG welding, which creates weaker bonds than TIG welding and won’t work on certain metals or metal thicknesses. Both welding forms usually require the use of shielding gas, which can be dangerous to store at home. Additionally, welding machines create temperatures of over 3,000 degrees, and the sparks can blind you if you don’t have the proper equipment. As such, it’s usually better to hire a professional welder for your welding projects.

To maintain custom or fabricated metal structures and extend their lifespan and appearance, perform regular cleaning, apply rust prevention treatments, and use protective coatings.

Welders use a variety of methods in their trade. Different types of welding are better suited for different purposes and contexts. For example, stick welding is a versatile form suitable for most metals and alloys. The most common types of welding include:

  • Stick welding: $100–$1,000

  • Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding: $250 and up

  • Gas welding: $150 and up

  • Forge welding: $15–$25 per hour

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.
