What questions should I ask a welder before hiring?

• <div><p>There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:</p><ul><li><p>Are you licensed and certified?</p></li><li><p>How long have you been in the welding business?</p></li><li><p>Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?</p></li><li><p>Do you charge by the hour or by the project?</p></li><li><p>How long do you expect my welding project to take?</p></li><li><p>What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What do most welders charge per hour?

• <div><p>Welders typically charge about <b>$65 to $150 per hour</b>, often charging a minimum fee to cover overhead and travel as applicable. Even if the job takes less than an hour, you’ll still pay the minimum charge to cover the welder’s transportation costs if they come to you. You may still pay a minimum price if you take your project to the welder, as they still have overhead of a workshop and materials to expense.</p></div>
