I would dig the hole, install the steel window well form and even cut the hole in the wall, He still wanted $3,500. WE purchased the home in 2013, with windows by Bee (with a lifetime guarantee). They didn't close and lock. Ask the old owners, to get the contractor to come out and correct the windows. They still don't work. I would not have picked them, if I knew. My wife told me that Bee was the contractor who had orginially put some windows into our house. It was too late, I had already made the appointment for them to come out. I am having Coors come this Friday. (also Angie's rated).

Non-installers (saleman, managers, etc.) are lettered Z, Y, ... . 8/31/05 Took vacation day for Pergo installation. Called Carpetland ~1030 asked where installer A was. Carpetland called back ~1130 and said A was in Chicago but that he'd be here on 9/1/05. That evening Carpetland called and said A wouldn't be here until 9/2/05. 9/1/05 Burned a day of vacation that I already had scheduled off for flooring project. 9/2/05 Installers A and B came. They didn't have clamps necessary for kind of Pergo we have. A said clamps were in Frankfurt at his home and he'd be back 9/6/05 (would have been nice if he could have gone get them and come back on day problem was discovered)---he said Carpetland didn't tell him this was the kind of Pergo he'd need clamps for. B laid pad. Talked with installer about how to get good seams where staircase and Pergo will meet. Current plan is to raise floor and use T-molding with channel. Installer A looked at molding going from dining room to back room and said that was nailed down instead of using channel and then presing molding into that. Over time, installer A said that the current installation would get looser and looser. 9/6/05 Installers A and B came. There isn't enough trim. Installers left. 9/13/05 Installers A and B come. Trim around staircase won't work. I asked if the roofing paper they brought would be thick enough. The roofing paper they were going to use isn't think enough. Getting the Pergo/carpet and Pergo/woodwork around stairs is going to be tricky. 9/14/05 Installer A came. Put in Pergo the entire width of foyer and three planks wide. 9/15/05 A and B came. The foyer is now 70% or so finished. A said that there would not be enough Pergo to finish the remaining part of the foyer, the entire guest bath, and the laundry. I then spent 40 hours over the next few weeks checking web sites, emailing people, telephoning companies, etc. trying to get more Pergo, considered doing laundry in different floor covering, etc. 9/21/05 Installers A and B were scheduled to come. At ~0910 I called Z and said they weren't here yet. He said he'd call them. Z called them and B showed up later. B put in seven Pergo planks. In the two places that were not clamped there are bad seams. At ~1045 B said (exact quote) "I'll be right back, I'm going to get the jamb saw". I called Z at ~1430. He said there would be no more installation today. I suggested they come tonight. A telephoned ~1930 and said they would be here around ~0830 tommorrow. 9/22/05 So far ~60 pieces of Pergo have been installed. That's an average of ~1 piece/hour for the time I've taken off work. When I talked with Z yesterday he said he'd be out of the office and to call Y, the manager, if any problems came up today. I said I'd call at 1030 if installers hadn't shown up. Today I changed my mind and called at 0930 and left a message for Y. Left message for Y at 0930 that installers hadn't shown up. 9/23/05 Called Z. He may have another installer work on this. 9/23/05--9/29/05 More calls to/from Z re getting another installer lined up. A called and said he'd be out next week. 9/30/05 Z said another installer would call me on Saturday, 10/1/05, at home. 10/1/05 A called and suggested I put tile in the foyer. I said because of quality and not showing up problems Carpetland was in the process of finding another installer. A said he'd come by next week and get his tools. At 12:01 I called Z saying other installer hadn't called. He called installer who was supposed to call but he didn't have his cell phone on. AT THIS POINT I FELT LIKE THE SITUATION WAS GETTING UNDER CONTROL AND I DIDN'T KEEP GOOD NOTES. THE NEXT THREE ENTRIES ARE FROM MEMORY. I WAS WRONG, THINGS WILL GET WORSE. ?/?/? Installer C and D installed Pergo. X said there would be enough Pergo. ?/?/? Installer C and D installed Pergo. ?/?/? Installer C and D and I installed Pergo. ?/?/? Manager Z said C was in jail for driving while his license was suspended and had trim in his truck when he was arrested. 12/30/05 A said that E would arrive between 9 and 9:30am and would not call first. E called. E was a few minutes late. E and F did not have the tools they needed to cut hole for register. They did nothing. 1/2/06 Called Z at ~9:40am. Z not in; talked to Y. Told Y floor guys said they'd be here at 0900--0930 and they aren't here yet. Y said he would call back. Floor guys called---said they were running late. Y called back. E and F guys arrived around 1015. There isn't enough trim to do the job. They didn't do anything. ?/?/06 (a Saturday) E and F came but did little or nothing. ?/?/06 (a Saturday) E, F, and G, and someone else whose name I forget came. Put in trim. The trim has serious quality problems. 3/6/06 Called Y, Manager, Carpetland at ~8:10am to discuss too much money for not enough quality problem. He said that Z has been trying to call me. I haven't received any calls or messages at work or at home. Y said he would call tommorrow between 10:00 and 10:30am. 3/7/06 Y called. Z and hard floor manager W are scheduled to come 2006-03-18 0900. 3/18/06 Hard floor manager W and salesperson Z came. John said they would call Pergo first thing Monday (3/20/06) to report "adhesive failure". Followup calls and letters to Carpetland didn't bring any satisfaction. The gaps between floor boards get larger and larger.
The installation went well, the problem was that the fence took 2 months to arrive. The color and size was a special order, and supplier had just made their customized run so we had to wait until the next run. Blue’s fence communication was bad, the original date for install came and I had to...

We recently had a shadowbox fence installed by Green Star. Mark and Marty were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were on time and even finished the fence a day earlier than expected. We are very pleased with the finished product. I would highly recommend them again!
I was happy with the process. Both molly the salesperson and the installers. I was given options on the installation by the installers. I'm very happy with my investment.

"Initially it started off very well. We wanted a large pond put in that was not an eye sore and would serve our livestock. I wish there was a little more guidance and recommendations as we don't know the ins and outs of pond building. Initial test holes were dug which confirmed the project was possible and would hold water. There was no communication with the well installation team to ensure appropriate water flow into the pond. Once that was figured out the pond only holds about 1/3 of water with a well running 24/7. Reached back out to Alec see if we could troubleshoot the issue and get it fixed. Informed Alec that we were more than happy to pay more but just wanted a finished product. We planned a date and now haven't heard from him in over 1 month. Multiple texts and phone calls with no response. The communication is the most frustrating part about this whole project. Would not use this contractor again even though the big expensive hole in the ground we have is "pretty"."

FAQs for putting green installation projects in West Lafayette, IN
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost of playground equipment installation is around $500, and most homeowners pay between $330 and $700, excluding the cost of the playground equipment itself. Your total project cost will depend on site preparation requirements, playset size, design complexity, number of accessories, and the swing set materials. Don’t forget to account for the cost of playground surfacing, which can cost between $15 to $160 per cubic yard or $225 per cubic yard for poured rubber.
The cost to install a basketball hoop can range from $200 to $5,000. This price heavily depends on the type of basketball hoop you choose, as some require equipment and some do not.
For example, you can most likely assemble a portable basketball hoop yourself, with a cost of $150 to $500. However, if you're looking for something more permanent, a roof-mounted hoop requires specialized tools and roof anchors, costing a total of $2,000 to $5,000.
Rubber mulch is widely considered the best material to place under a playset. This material option provides more cushioning than traditional wood mulch for added protection, remains cooler than sand and most other materials in direct sunlight, and it’s low maintenance. Rubber mulch is slightly more expensive than other common options at $120 per cubic yard on average, whereas pine bark mulch is $30 per cubic yard. But when it comes to your children’s safety, the investment is worthwhile. Consult your playground equipment installation company about material recommendations before starting this project.
