"I contracted Mr. Singleton to install wrought Iron rails on my front stoop. I was told he could install the rails later in the week. Three weeks later he arrived to install the rails. When he showed up he did not even notify me that he had arrived for the install and just started installing the rails. Had he notified me that he was at my home and ready to install the rails, I would have prevented the install upon seeing the quality of the rails. Instead, Mr Singleton installed misaligned, poorly welded, poorly painted rails. In addition to the poor quality of the rails, masonry and bricks on the stoop were damaged and broken. Excess anchoring cement/sealant was not cleaned up and was allowed set up on the bricks leaving an unsightly mess. Pictures attached show the bad welds with excess welding material and splattered welding material all over the work. There were gaps in welded joints, with no attempt the grind the welds to blend them into the rails. Painting was incomplete as there were areas with bare metal and exposed primer. Upon seeing the work, I called Mr. Singleton and told him the work was unacceptable and the rails needed to be completely removed and the masonry repaired. There was no way the rails could be realigned, welded, blended and painted to look the way they should. I paid him 1/2 by check up front and the rest after the job. Immediately after he left, I requested him to return after I inspected the completed job. He would not return and I had to cancel the second check. Mr Singleton said he would come back later in the week to resolve the issue. He was an absolute NO SHOW. Communication with Mr. Singleton is hit and miss. I Do Not Recommend Fusion Ironworks, LLC or Mr Singleton for installing wrought iron railings. Be warned, the quality of materials and craftsmanship is substandard!"

"Rick Wade, the Jorca project manager, came to our apartment to discuss the job, when we had agreed on scope of work and materials, Jorca sent an estimate for the work, and about 2 weeks later (doors were special order) came and installed and painted the doors and fixed the floor. The doors were difficult in the sense that one opening was not square. The carpenter who did the work (Luis Gonzalez) fixed the problem as part of the install and the new doors now look great and work perfectly. The floor repair was also done very well. The old damage is not at all visible. Overall it was a great experience. We have used Jorca before and will use them again."

Experts consider MIG welding the easiest type of welding to master for a beginner. MIG welding uses a continuously fed wire electrode that doesn’t require changing nearly as much as the stick electrodes used for stick welding. You can continue welding without having to stop and change your electrode. The process also produces a low amount of slag and spatter.
Aluminum is the hardest metal to weld despite being one of the top three choices for welding among professionals (alongside low-carbon and stainless steel). In its ore or alloy form, aluminum has several physical and chemical properties that make welding complicated. For example, aluminum oxide, which forms naturally in a thin coating on the surface of aluminum, is an exceptionally hard substance. Combined with its high thermal conductivity, aluminum requires precise welding.
TIG welding produces the strongest welds and is reliable for high-quality results. Its slow cooling rate yields high tensile strength and ductility. TIG also produces the least distortion of all welding methods. However, it requires considerable skills and expensive equipment.
Welded connections are stronger than bolted ones. Welds offer better weight distribution of supported loads and greater resistance to rotational or shear forces. When done correctly, a welded joint is usually as strong, if not stronger, than the metal it joins. With bolting, cutting holes for bolts weakens the structure. However, bolting is less expensive, labor-intensive, and an affordable alternative to welding.
