"Ingrid was very professional and prompt in response to my inquiry for repair of our metal stair access to our home. The quality of the welding work was excellent as well as the concrete work they performed. Additionally, the cost was approximately 1/3 less than all other providers. Would strongly recommend to anyone that requires deck or stair work."

"Fenceworks did an excellent job. They replaced old fencing and installed new upgraded fencing, including two new gates. The crew came right on time, worked hard and finished in one day, staying later than the office was open. Their work was meticulous, all level, even though the ground they were working with was uneven everywhere. They actually build the fence on-site to ensure their measurements are perfect - no prefab panels! The result is much better looking than the fencing they replaced, and certainly several times better in quality. Their clean up was equally comprehensive - not a speck of dust left anywhere. Definitely a great experience, and on top of everything their estimate was the lowest of the three we interviewed."

"Called a couple companies near me and was put on a waitlist for an initial estimate. Reached out to Mark and got to speak with him on the phone on my first call. He came by took measurements and got my door repaired within the week. Mark was very professional and provided a detailed inspection and efficient repair. Extremely happy with the results. Would recommend 100%."

"I am very pleased with my new floors. I bought my wood and baseboards separately and solicited several bids for installation and removal of the existing carpet. Mike's estimate was by FAR the most reasonable. We were in contact several times through Angie's list and he came out and said the initial quote he gave me was good (extra supplies and dumping the carpet etc. was extra as costs incurred).
Once we were able to coordinate schedules (my schedule was nuts and it this was a big job so he needed to block off a week for his crew). Ernesto and Gabriel showed up on time and after going over the details I let them get to work (I moved out of my place for the week). I checked in a couple of times to see the progress and the speed at which they got things done was remarkable. By Tuesday, the carpet was all gone and part of the floor was installed!
Mike contacted me by phone on Wednesday and said everything would be done by Friday at 4:00 p.m. (our originally agreed upon time). When I finally came home, not only did they do a nice job with the floors, but they did a nice job cleaning up. There wasn't nearly as much dust as I expected and they put the furniture back in the right spots.
After my initial inspection, I noticed a couple of things that needed to be finished and went over them with Mike during his walk through the following day (there were some job debris left over and a couple spots that needed painting/patching. Nothing serious, but Mike agreed to fix everything for no charge. We scheduled a time for a worker to come out and I even added a couple of other jobs at a discounted price (some additional drywall work and window caulking). My only disappointment is that I have to wait an extra week for the final repairs. This is mostly my fault for adding on extra jobs that will require a whole day at my house, otherwise they'd been done already.
Since I've hired Mike's crew again, you know I like them and I will use them in the future. The prices are excellent and his crew is very professional.

"Jeff Winton and crew at Aspen are great to work with. Quality work and fair price. Last year, they installed a three-rail red cedar split rail with galvanized welded wire and three gates for our backyard (about 1/2 an acre) in a day-and-a-half."

"Beth did an excellent job steam cleaning our grill - it literally looks like new and this service is something everyone who grills frequently should consider annually. She was also kind enough to steam clean some of our toys for free. Carlos is also an excellent painter and helped tackle a number of projects around the house. They go above and beyond to ensure you are satisfied - I strongly recommend them!"

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

A Trex gate costs $750 plus another $200 for the hardware pack necessary for installation. By contrast, Trex fencing ranges in price from $22 to $38 per linear foot, so you may pay a lot or a little depending on just how much space you need to enclose in your yard. 

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

Automatic gates don’t use too much electricity, and you should see a minimal effect on your utility bill. In fact, certain gate systems are entirely self-sufficient and rely on solar panels attached to or near the gate to power the motor. While a gate is large and there is a powerful motor moving it, it’s not something that sees constant use throughout the day. For most automatic gates, expect to see a utility bill increase of only around $10 per month.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

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.
