"The service professional (I think it was Tom), although friendly and professional, arrived two hours late.  I scheduled an appointment from 9-11AM, and he arrived at 10:50AM, hence the "bad" rating for punctuality.
When he arrived, he proceeded to perform the work that I purchased through Angie's List, which was a $100 garage door maintenance package that included greasing rollers, door balance check, and motor inspection.  Upon the inspection, Tom highly recommended that I perform the service that I outlined above.  He reasoned that the age of the springs and motor had exceeded the typical life spans.  He had the garage door opener motor, drive shaft, and springs in his truck and promptly installed them in 90 minutes.  He performed some tuning on both garage doors.  
I rated a "C" for pricing because the garage door opener could be purchased for $300 just for parts of Amazon.  I was quoted $640 for the door opener and installation.  It took 1 guy 45 minutes to replace the garage door opener and drive shaft. Was that worth $340?  Perhaps this was fair price compared to competing vendors, but I didn't have a chance to compare.  So my perception is that the replacement is more expensive than it should be.  However, given that the work was done well, and he tuned the rest of my garage door, I'll rate the overall pricing as Fair for the scope of work done.

"I found Vince on Angie's List 3 years ago. I interviewed him and selected him, in part, because of a Deal on the list. This year, after speaking with 3 companies found on Angie's List, we again decided to go with About Green Land Care. Vince returned my call and was able to stop by that day on his way home from another job. He recognized the yard, and the trees, and talked with us about what we wanted. We agreed to a price and scheduled a date the following week. It's a busy time of year; after evaluating the size of the job (medium small) he was able to fit us in his schedule on a morning before another job. Vince and his team arrived promptly and began work. In addition to sharing his knowledge and experience, he was also willing to take input from us and the trees came out nicely. The work was completed as planned, with an extra - he had his team blow out our gutters while they were on the roof. They worked carefully and cleaned up all evidence of the work before leaving. He did advise when he arrived, that the wood chipper was having problems that morning. After removing the fruit from the branches, separating the ripe from the green, the branches were neatly stacked on the side of the driveway and removed the following day, Vincent and his team know what they are doing and, more importantly, they enjoy what they are doing and seem to enjoy their clients."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Yes, driveway gates can help secure your home by deterring burglars from accessing your property. Climbing a gate slows down burglars while also attracting attention to your gate. If you live further down your property and want to increase security, you can also install a gate security camera that connects to your gate and monitors the area for suspicious activity.

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

While there’s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.
