"We reached out to multiple companies around the Birmingham area and Premier Fence was definitely the best choice in terms of customer service, price, quality, and professionalism. Joe is always courteous and fast with communication. He went out of his way to help us get our fence approved for our HOA. His staff are professional and got the job done in a timely manner without compromising quality. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone without hesitation!"

"We got off to a rough start. He said he’d meet me but then sent his girlfriend on several occasions. She was nice and helpful, but I was expecting to meet up with Larry. I finally bought all materials and roofing myself, to avoid hassles. Larry met me with his trailer at the home improvement store, and again at the roofing store. I paid him for labor only, upon completion....in the amount of $3,000. This was for replacing a section of exterior wall, replacing a small section of sub-flooring with plywood, painting the exterior of the building, 16x20, painting the door, and putting on a new roof. An old deck was taken apart and put back on, as well. I’m pleased with the roof and painting of the exterior walls and door. He had to come back and replace a section of wood. He wanted to use wood putty but it was a large area and needed to be replaced with wood, so he replaced it with wood as I requested, and I will soon paint it myself. The deck could look better but since old wood was used, maybe it will look better after I paint it. Using old wood was my choice to save money since the wood was still good. Larry did help me to save money on this storage building. The problems that occurred weren’t so much due to the quality of work, as they were about several other issues and follow through: 1. Being on job site on the days promised, 2. Meeting me when he promised, instead of sending someone else after knowing I was on my way. I’m an hour away. 3. Not being tactful to me or showing professionalism to me as his customer (his bread and butter). Businesses teach the customer is always right. He threw a receipt at me that I didn’t need...and spoke down to me harshly. His texts have been very ugly many times. 4. Serious cursing...MF...and often, every few words, I was told. 5.My neighbor was not happy with some issues that occurred on his property during this time, but Larry says he isn’t responsible and doesn’t know if his workers are responsible or not as Larry wasn’t always there. Larry does not want to do anymore work for me and said he put up dealing with my **** for months and for me not to call him anymore. Therefore, I will not call him anymore. I’m a patient person and hoped to find a handyman I could call on through the years for various projects, but I haven’t found him yet. I found Larry through Home Advisor which is a name I have used and I trust, but he is no longer with them. Larry thinks I don’t like the job they did, but the repair is fine, the painting is fine, the roof looks fine I think, though the wood that hangs over on the corners may have needed replacing...I’m an older woman and don’t know about these things, and the deck isn’t pretty but seems to be sturdy...made from older wood I had."

"They started all of this with a cold call to have us put on a new roof, which we declined; but they said they also did the siding, so we had them look at the siding.  They had another company call us.  The experience was good.  The girl who came out for the roofing had another man contact us about the siding and that happened right away.  He came out and looked at it the very next day, so all of that was very good; however, we really had no communication from him after that.  The next thing we knew that the subcontracted company's owner was calling us.  We had no idea of the Ageless Restoration about what the game plan was.  It was kind of frustrating and took us some minutes to figure that out.  They are definitely worst contacting.  They are just like any other company that one hire's or thinking about hiring where one has to stay on top of everything."

"Ifa responded to my request the same day over the weekend and began work on my gazebo on Monday. He and his team were professional and put in extra hours to make sure my gazebo was constructed properly. They triple-checked that everything was level and the roof overlay was equal on all sides, and then they drilled my gazebo into concrete. Everyone on the team was friendly and really considerate! Ifa’s team can handle everything—roofing, porch and patio construction, carpentry, drywall, painting, and his brother is an electrician. The price was very reasonable. I will absolutely be hiring 360 Gear Pro Work for my next home renovation project!"

Gate Repair FAQs, answered by experts

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

Installing a gate on your property is often a worthwhile investment, despite the initial expense. Gates enhance your home's curb appeal and can increase its property value, making them more attractive to potential homebuyers. They provide significant security benefits by keeping out unwanted guests and increasing privacy for your household. Additionally, a gate can help keep children and pets safely contained in your yard.

For driveway gates, automatic versions are particularly convenient and tend to add more value than manual ones. The choice of gate material also plays a role in both aesthetic appeal and security. Beyond driveways, side gates can improve accessibility to your rear yard, making the outdoor space more usable. Overall, whether for security, safety, or aesthetics, installing a gate is a valuable addition to a property.

You don’t need a permit for an automatic gate in most cities because it isn’t a structural change to your home, but you need to check. A pro can help you with this and since we don’t recommend installing an automatic gate yourself, you should already be in contact with one, making this a frictionless question. Outside of permit requirements, you need to consider your homeowners association (HOA), as some are against gated homes.

It can cost $100 to $500 to purchase and install a gate opener. You can use ready-made kits that come with DIY instructions. If you hire a professional gate installer to handle the job, expect to pay an average of $100 per hour or between $200 and $500.
