"As always - great. Used this company multiple times and have referred to friends. SLOMI, the owner, is a professional - does a great job and doesn't cut corners. Reprogrammed remotes and left everything clean once he was done. My go-to company for anything home theater related."

"GM Pacific Pro Construction As an avid DIYer , it’s rare for me to allow someone to do work for me. From home repairs , automotive, and electronics, my trust in others doing the job correctly has been a major concern- hence DIY. Because of the difficulty, time and my age, I contacted GM Pacific Pro Construction to give me an estimate on a roofing project. I’d seen the quality of work as they completed my neighbors new roof. I met Gil, who arrived on time to review my project. I found Gil, friendly, easy to discuss needs with and, most importantly, I felt fully confident in trusting GM Pacific Pro Construction to do a quality job. The price was right for me, so without a second estimate , I accepted Gil’s bid for the job. The work team , Gil included, arrived on time to start the job. Everything needed had been ordered ahead , and had arrived the day before work started. The work TEAM was obviously experienced, worked efficiently , and in one day I had my roof project done to perfection. I had no clean-up, no added expenses, and no disruption to my day. I’ve been part of and managed customer service teams , from 12 to 35 members , over 36 years for a major Corporation ;Gil and his team worked as “one” to smoothly finish my project. GM Pacific Pro Construction is truly a “Best Practice” business I’d use again , and I easily and highly recommend ."

"They are hands down the best investment I ever made in my life. I had a very odd shaped area that I needed fenced off, but I have a very modern looking house. He came and took measurements within two days. He then came back with the final measurements with his welder. It was so fast. He had these 9' beautiful fences. They powder coat them to the color you want. His design is awesome. The property line is a little angled, so the fences wouldn't fit because the metal is so tall, so they went overnight and welded a new piece. It is so nice. After that, it was so good, I had them redo my garage door in the same style. That again, took nine business days. It was just perfect. It sounds expensive, but these were big gates. They ran 25' of fencing and then another 7' on one side. They also put in two doors that have deadbolts, with many angles. It's not just an average garage. My house was built in the 1920's, so they went way beyond. It wasn't like putting on a new door, they had to build a new steel frame, and then they had to inset it into the roof line. It was so much more than you could ever expect. I can't stop talking about it. They were just so good. They put two working barn doors on the garage with separate locks. It is very detailed. They were so professional. It's so hard to find in LA people that you want to work with again. They are going to do a 30' fence along the back of my house, so I will be using them again in a couple of months. I don't know how much more I could gush about them. I had been avoiding doing the work because I'm use to people coming up with excuses. They were just problem solvers. They were fixing problems and making them work versus trying to up charge you after the fact. It was very straightforward and the price didn't change. I think they did more work than they initially thought, but there was no haggle on the price or anything."

Playground Equipment questions, answered by experts

Rubber mulch is widely considered the best material to place under a playset. This material option provides more cushioning than traditional wood mulch for added protection, remains cooler than sand and most other materials in direct sunlight, and it’s low maintenance. Rubber mulch is slightly more expensive than other common options at $120 per cubic yard on average, whereas pine bark mulch is $30 per cubic yard. But when it comes to your children’s safety, the investment is worthwhile. Consult your playground equipment installation company about material recommendations before starting this project.

The average cost to install a playground is around $500, with most homeowners spending between $150 and $1,200 on installation labor. The total project cost can range from $500 to $2,500. These prices typically do not include the playground equipment itself, which can cost an additional $100 to $1,500.

Several factors influence the final installation cost:

  • Playset Details: The type, size, material, design complexity, and number of accessories.

  • Site Preparation: Costs may increase if the land needs to be leveled.

  • Yard Accessibility: Difficult access for installers can raise labor costs.

  • Customization: Custom-built playgrounds are more expensive to install than premade kits.

  • Permits: Local permitting fees may apply.

Additionally, remember to budget for playground surfacing, which can cost $15 to $160 per cubic yard, or up to $225 per cubic yard for poured rubber.

There are many different types of basketball hoops available to choose from. 

  • Portable hoops are fully moveable and generally do not require assistance with assembly. 

  • Semi-portable in-ground hoops have an anchor cemented in the ground and a removable post.

  • In-ground hoops are fully built into the ground as one piece and cannot be relocated after placement. 

  • Wall-mounted hoops do not have a post or pole and work well when space is limited.

Material markup costs and labor expenses are the additional primary costs of hiring a playground installer over building your own set. Labor costs are typically less costly than some more specialized home improvement projects. DIY swing set construction is less expensive than professional installation but will take considerably more time and effort to perform.

If your seedlings have reached a few inches in height and the weather outside has stabilized to where you’re no longer seeing overnight temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, it may be time to start hardening them off to get them ready to be planted in the garden.
