Unfinished basement concrete block wall painting project. Overall painting was good. However one support post was only painted on three of the four sides, and significant grit/dirt left on the floor under the stair way (I failed to notice those two items during final inspection).

It was February, the ground frozen, and Pat Cady came out and was able to dig post holes for the fence. This saved us a long time since the ground was so hard. He was very competitive with his prices and we appreciated the prompt work.

Fencing questions, answered by experts

A setback is an area of space between your fence and the property line, meaning you build a fence a few inches before your neighbor’s property begins. You can build your fence on a setback—some communities recommend this—but this means a sliver of your property will be on your neighbor’s side of your fence.

Issues include rust, loose posts, and damaged mesh. Regular maintenance prevents significant problems.

A bamboo fence can last up to 20 years when properly installed and maintained. Bamboo is a durable material, but to get the most life out of it, you should clean and seal the fence every few years. Staining the bamboo can also restore the appearance if the color fades over time. Use screws to fasten the bamboo, rather than twine, to ensure the bamboo fence stays together longer.
