We are a Fencing specialist. We install all types of Fencing including Chain link/Black or Galvanize Fences. Wood Privacy Fences, Vinyl Privacy Fences, Ornamental Fences and Commerical Fencing. We are a family owned and operated business. We pride ourselves in giving the Customer the quality workmanship that we would expect from a company that we would hire ourselves.

"Steve showed up first to give us a quote. We did ask for additional quotes from other businesses and decided to go with him, as his quote listed every detail about the work. The price of the project was very competitive with other estimates. Since we weren't sure what we really needed, Steve provided excellent guidance. He and his crew went the extra mile to make sure we were happy and satisfied with the final product. I would recommend Fancing Solutions to anyone because I am confident they will do a good job."

"He is a newer contractor. He never came when promised so we waited. He skipped a day after promising to be there. He asked for more money after giving us a written quote, the fence was crooked but it passed inspection, and made lots of miscuts. I think he will get better after he is in business for a few years."

PlanurBuild LLC/BCS has been remodeling residential homes since 2003. We are known for taking difficult remodels and working with the customer to do it right. We strive in building relationships one project at a time. We do that by paying attention to the details and using only the highest quality products. When we pick up the products from the vendor, we inspect it to make sure that it meets or exceeds standards. You name it, we've done it. We love remodeling homes whether that be kitchen, baths, basement finishes all the way to fixing structures damaged from pest, water or fire.

"Excellent. The doors and trim are exactly the color and style I wanted. It made a huge difference in the appearance of my home."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

The best under-gate dog barrier is one that extends to the ground. This effectively keeps dogs in and won't give them room to squeeze through. However, dogs that dig can still get under the barrier. Deter digging by paving the ground beneath the gate or filling it in with rocks or gravel. Be careful using wire to extend dog gates, as the sharp ends may cut or hurt your dog's paws.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

It might be possible to install your own manual driveway gate rather than an automatic one, but we don’t recommend it. Driveway gates are large, heavy, and bulky, and getting them to your house and maneuvering them for installation can be dangerous. It’s also challenging to install the gate and balance it perfectly so that it functions as expected, and wiring any automation mechanisms for your gate is also dangerous and requires help from an electrician. We recommend leaving the work to a professional driveway gate installer.

Other mechanisms can help you keep your gate securely shut. Secure gate latch types will do the job, such as magnetic or spring-loading, self-closing lever varieties, or automatic gate openers. However, they won’t control the speed at which the gate closes. You can purchase slam plates that use rubber buffers to reduce noise and the potential damage-inducing impact of a fast-closing, heavy gate.
