"Martin came out on a Saturday, and I walked him through the yard to show him what I wanted done. He gave me a fair quote that we both agreed on and said he'd be back the following Saturday to complete the work. He showed up right on time with four trucks, a wood chipper, a Vermeer, and an 8-man crew—ready to go. In just one day, they removed one dead tree and six large shrubs, cleared out all the dead growth from winter, edged everything perfectly, created a parking spot for my trailer, transformed a bare dirt area into a grass patch with topsoil, seed, and blanket, and trimmed every tree on the property. On top of that, they planted eight bushes and thirty flowering plants. I couldn't be happier—the yard looks incredible! Martin and his team were professional, efficient, and did a fantastic job. I’ll definitely be using them again and highly recommend their services."

"I used FJ for a year and a half. They solicited me. Over the course they cut my landscape light wires 3 times. The first 2 times I told Fabian and put white lawn marker flags out so they could see where the wires were. The guy just wound up weed wacking the flags to pieces and cut them again. They also ran their mower in my fence gate bending the frame, which I never even mentioned to him. This last time they cut the wire again (have on video) I texted Fabian he became very abusive and offensive telling me he does not care and I am annoying. Mind you , I have never asked for anything for damages now or in the past and have only spoken to him maybe 5 times in 2 years. He mentioned I only pay when I want to but he has been paid every penny I have ever owed him. very poor business owner and would not recommend unless you want a careless, arrogant person maintaining your lawn."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Pergolas have no base structure to hold them up, so it’s necessary to attach them to some type of foundation. Most pergolas require a minimum of at least four concrete footings to keep them solid and stable in the ground. Attaching the pergola to a concrete foundation is an option as well.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

On average, a prefabricated pergola kit takes one to four hours to build. Prefabricated pergolas are the fastest to install and could save you money, while custom pergolas can take several days to install, ranging from eight to 16 hours. The number of workers on the project can also impact how long it takes to install a pergola. 

If you need to build a concrete slab, level your property, or remove obstacles from your yard before building a pergola, then your project could take several weeks to complete.

Pergolas and similar overhead outdoor structures will typically be subject to building code regulations. Every municipality is different, and some may have specs or permit requirements, so it’s important to double-check. Some HOAs may also have restrictions on what you can build, so be sure to check with your HOA as well (if applicable).
