We all know a fresh coat of paint can do wonders for updating a space. Still, nothing adds elegance and warmth like custom woodwork and trim. Imagine transforming your living room or custom storage, and a fireplace makeover. Now move to the kitchen and imagine how much better it would look with new, custom-built cabinets. Maintaining the exterior of your home is important to avoid structural issues and keep it looking good. Murach’s Construction can handle all your exterior repairs and perform installations that enhance the beauty of your home. Whether you need us to repair damaged wood, or make improvements to the exterior of your home, you can rely on us for all your exterior home repairs and installation. We do all kinds of handyman services.

"Mark installed floors in our kitchen and living room. We chose hardwood and his work was well priced for the great job that he did. Will definitely recommend him and use him again as he is a Jack of all trades. Thanks Mark!"

"We hired Oscar to build a new front porch. At first, everything went well. However, we ultimately agreed to change the scope of the project a little bit (instead of re-painting and repairing a wood awning, covering it with Trex). We paid for the job (including the painting work that was not performed), but then Oscar kept pushing us off on finishing the project, saying he had bigger jobs to worry about. He also did not have his crew come finish the punch list work on the original scope, so there are some missing fasteners and warped Trex that he agreed to replace but did not. We have been chasing him for months to finish up, but he mostly ignores our messages and says he can't get to us. It's been very disappointing, because he seemed like a nice guy and had come highly recommended."

I've been a handyman and remodeling homes on the side for more than 30 years. At the conclusion of a 32 year career as an insurance professional, I chose to pursue my hobby as a full-time self employed residential remodeling/home improvement contractor. I recently added Angie's List to my portfolio of service providers and have a 94% 5-Star rating (100 + reviews) with another similar service provider. I approach every job as if it were my own home, delivering high quality work with attention to detail. Timely and efficient communication are also my standard practice. Give me a try - you'll be happy you did!

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, the standard 10- to 12-inch-long and 1- to 1.5-inch-diameter gate springs will work. However, if you have an especially wide, thick, or heavy garden gate, you may need to opt for a longer, broader—and pricier—model to ensure secure closure and good longevity. These typically range between 12 and 16 inches long and are over 1.5 inches in diameter.

A security door costs an average of $1,400, but costs can range from $600 for a simple screen or steel door to more than $4,600 for a wrought-iron security door. You can also buy specialized locks separately for $200 to $600. If you decide to hire a pro to install your new security door, you’ll spend around $275 to $425 on labor costs.

Security doors are not limited to standard sizes, and you can customize them to fit your needs and entryway dimensions. That's one of the fantastic things about security doors—they can be tailored to match your home. Keep in mind that a custom-sized security door will likely cost more than a standard size. 

Installing your own gate is possible, but we don’t recommend it. Gates can weigh hundreds of pounds in some cases, and even types of gates made from the lightest materials are heavy, bulky, and difficult to maneuver into place. Positioning your gate perfectly is also crucial to make sure it swings smoothly and either closes automatically or doesn’t close without force, depending on your preferences. Mistakes made by DIYers can be quite costly, too, as the materials alone average around $1,000. As such, it’s better to hire a professional gate installer.
