"Barkley communicated well during the process of picking out the butcher block countertop and installation. The work was done to our specifications and installed without a hitch. If you are looking for a butcher block countertop, he is your man. I highly recommend!!"

"Ken and his team did a very good job, and went above and beyond for me. It was a 4 day job. They drove 30+ minutes to my house everyday and were here just about from sunrise to sunset for those four days to get the job done. Ken did extra work such as painting my metal chimney cap to match the color of my roof per my request at no extra cost. He also repaired a hole in the roof of my car port which was not part of the roofing I was getting replaced at no additional cost. Also one thing that Ken offered that nobody else did in my area, was to schedule an inspection one year after the install to ensure everything is going good, and that everything still looks good, which shows me his dedication to doing good work. I was very happy with the work Ken and his team did, and would hire them again in a heartbeat."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, fence posts need to be installed below the frost line to ensure stability and prevent heaving caused by freezing and thawing cycles. The frost line is the depth at which soil freezes during winter. By placing posts below this line, often around 3 to 4 feet deep or as recommended for your specific region, you reduce the risk of the ground shifting, which can lead to leaning or unstable fences. Adequate depth provides better anchoring and helps maintain the fence's integrity, ensuring it remains secure and upright throughout changing seasons.

If you’re trying to keep your dog from running away, an electric fence isn’t the only fence type for your yard worth considering. The cost of dog fences can range from $1,500 to $8,000, with popular materials including wood, vinyl, or aluminum to keep your pet safe and sound. 

If you’re trying to keep livestock in their pasture, other fencing options include woven wire, high-tensile wire, and synthetic fencing. These options give your animals boundaries without the use of electricity. 

Ideally, your concrete should set slightly above ground at an angle sloping away from the fence post. This will add extra support and allow water to run away from the wood fence post. Keeping water out will help prevent wood rot. Additionally, you can add soil on top of the concrete for a seamless finish. 

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.
