"We give LUCAS FENCING a 9 out of 10.  We would definitely use them again.  Here are the pros and cons we had with this experience.
PROS:
  Tom Lucas is very friendly, promptly returns messages and phone calls, and keeps appointments.
  He and his crew did excellent quality work without wasting any time.  They arrived promptly on the scheduled day.
  He had no problem with minor changes we had while the fence was being repaired.
  He is trustworthy; he came back for the old posts just like he said he would, and honored the Angie's List discount when it was 
    forgotten on an amended invoice.
  
CONS:
  It took awhile for us to get a scheduled date, farther out than expected (2 weeks vs 5 weeks).  His timetable was affected by the
    bad weather we were experiencing, so it wasn't a major issue. 
  He had to come back for the old posts instead of taking them that day due to the existing weight on his truck.  He did pick them up
    as promised 2 days later.
9/10.  Thanks Tom!

"I saw a coupon for installation of a Viper toilet.  After doing some research on this brand I decided to get 2 for my home.  They work great and the installer was so professional.  They appeared promptly when they were scheduled to and did a great job.  They disposed of the old toilets and cleaned up the work area when they were done.  We loved the toilets and firm so much that we bought 2 more toilets for another property.  After a couple of months, one of the toilets started to "run".  They came back out and explained to me how pieces of the Clorox tablets I was using in the tank was getting caught under the flapper.  They did not charge me for this service call.  I highly recommend 24/7 Plumbing and I would not hesitate to use the for any plumbing needs in the future.

"The porch roof was old and in poor condition with holes and lots of dry rot from at LEAST 18 plus years of weathering . As soon as Robert(the company owners) team got to our property, they gutted the roof and worked quickly, and efficiently on the new install. The new porch roof looks great!!! The workers were very friendly, and made sure to not only clear debris from my home, but to also make sure any debris that may have gotten on my neighbors property was cleaned away. Robert and his team exude a genuine passion for what they do, and make sure that before they leave, you have a smile on your face. Wonderful work AND customer service!"

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

A gate shouldn’t be higher or lower than the fence it's attached to. If the gate is lower than the fence, it encourages strangers to peek at your property. If the gate is higher than the fence, it just looks weird. Gates allow for increased security and aesthetics, so ensure the gate rests at the same height as the fence.

If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you’re fine to stick with a single fence gate. If your fence opening needs to accommodate vehicles of any kind, from cars to trucks to 4-wheelers, then a double fence gate will suit the space much better and give you more freedom. 

Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added sliding gate mechanisms, which can go out from frequent use.

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate.
