"They were very professional and did a lot more work than I thought they would. Nobody could have done it better. They cleaned up after they were done and left nothing behind. I would definitely hire them again for any welding I need done."

"The crew did outstanding work and completed the railings on our front porch in one day. The quality is as good as it gets. We are very happy with the work and would not hesitate to recommend the company to our friends and relatives if they need ornamental ironwork done. The cost was very fair."

"The Volkan Railings contractor came to the building and based on the quality of his reviews on Angie's List we selected him over several other bids. We agreed on his price based on the length he stated the project would take. The first day he was over two hours late and only worked a half day before leaving. I also had a paid manager show up several hours before his arrival to wait for him.



Ultimately, his stated project time length was almost double what it actually took him. While variations occur in contracting projects, nearly doubling the estimated time to complete a simple and generally routine welding project caught me by surprise. He essentially billed 75% in excess of the the hourly wage of the other bidding contractors. When we discussed this hourly disparity with him after the project, he was unwilling to negotiate his excessive bid.



Further, when we asked about the senior discount which is stated as 20% on Angie's List, he claimed it was only 10% and refused to honor the 20%.



However, his work appears to be very good and we have no complaints about the quality of his work product. Our only suggestion to those who use him in the future is MAKE SURE YOU GET MULTIPLE BIDS and ensure that his billing and time rates make sense for the project.

FAQs for welding projects in Covington, WA

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.

The average cost to hire a welder is about $300, with an average rate ranging from $65 to $125 per hour, depending on their experience and the project type and size. Aside from labor costs, some other charges you’ll need to pay include the cost of the welding material and the cost of the shielding gas that makes welding possible and safe. When you’re interviewing welders for your work, you can ask for an estimate based on your project specifics. In some simple cases, like welding gas lines or common welding projects, local welders may charge a flat hourly rate with add-ons if necessary.

There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:

  • Are you licensed and certified?

  • How long have you been in the welding business?

  • Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?

  • Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?

  • Do you charge by the hour or by the project?

  • How long do you expect my welding project to take?

  • What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?

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.

Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.
