"Do not go to this ?company? for a fence. This is the worst experience I have ever had. First of all the gate is ginormous. And they put 2 hinges on it thinking that would support the weight? I had this done in February and within a month I can not close the gate because it drags on the ground. I told Alton, the owner I guess, that the gate was too big and he blamed ME. He said I did not request a smaller gate. Last time I looked I was not a gate expert. The fence itself, within 2 weeks the boards started warping, see pics. After I complained he said he would come fix it because ?I am nice?. No, it is because he did not put a 4X4 along the bottom of the fence to tack it down so it would not warp. And, he never came back. Said he would come back and never did. Now I have to pay another guy to fix the fence. Alton said he would do it without labor costs, now I have to pay someone else. He is rude, condescending and has no skill to do this kind of work. Hire at your own risk. "

"Contractor needed to dig post holes for fencing project with many on a incline and a few along backside of garage with limited access. Kyle arrived with a mini excavator with a post hole digger/auger attachment on the date/time we agreed to. A real pleasure to work with as holes were dug on a very hot Sat. afternoon. He showed up, was very professional and flawlessly completed the job. Would definitely recommend and hire this contractor again. "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You can install exposed solid wood beams for between $6 and $80 per linear foot, but these beams are often decorative if you’re retrofitting an existing home with them. Laminated veneer lumber beams, more commonly called LVL beams, cost $3 to $12 per linear foot, and while they can’t span nearly as long of a distance as steel I-beams, they can provide more open spaces than traditional wooden beams.

Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different permit to finish a basement than you would tear down the patio.

If you have a knack for DIYing, a trellis can be built from scratch from all kinds of materials. However, if time is of the essence, it’s far easier to buy a trellis ready-made and put it together at home.

While your municipality may have its own regulations requiring pergolas or other structures to be a certain height above a fire pit, the standard recommendation is that the pergola should be at least 10 feet above the fire pit. A taller pergola allows the heat from the flames to dissipate before reaching the structure.

Consider the height of the plants you plan on using with the trellis, as they will need the right amount of support to grow.
