"We are getting this property ready to sell and it has been overgrown for several years. Elder was very specific about what he could do within our time and price range. We met three times to go over the job. He and his crew did an excellent job. The front yard especially looks great. The trees and bushes were trimmed nicely and all looks clean and professional. The areas on the sides and back yard were overgrown with weeds and they cleaned them out being careful to protect the blackberry patch, lilac bushes and Lilly plants. They placed existing flag stones in a nice walkway from the back door to a small incline on the side of the blackberry bushes. On the left side of the house next to the driveway they cleaned out the invasive vines wrapped around several large bushes and trees. We can now see and have access to beautiful trees, holly & rose bushes that have been nicely trimmed. We will now need to plant new grass and flowers in some of the areas cleared away,"

"It went soooo well! When I called to request a pickup, I had no difficulty getting through via telephone. I learned that I could also place a request for my pickup via the internet/website too. I gave them my credit card, and walla! the next day, my bag was emptied and I went back to my project. Since I own this bag, I don't feel pressure getting it filled because it is being picked up at the end of the rental. I call when I'm ready! Not when someone else is.The best part of this was that, although on the surface, it appears to be more expensive than when you rent a dumpster, but with a dumpster you pay for the weight. This you don't. It makes life easier because you have no surprises. Plus my driveway and yard is still in tact and my wife doesn't complain about an ugly dumpster. Can you tell how happy we are! We would highly recommend this to all of our friends and family!"

"I hired James and his father to repair the sides of my dormers. I asked them to rip the shingles off , replace/stain them, paint some trim and replace the corners with Azek. I supplied the materials, which they had no problem with. His price was better than reasonable, the work was top notch and he even threw in some Tyvek, flashing and nails. Best of all, he was not a hassle to deal with, showed up when he said he would and did the work it the amount of time he said it would take him. I've recommended them to two of my friends already."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.

Yes, most services include safety checks and anchoring to ensure stability. Confirm with your provider.

Yes, you can convert manual gates to electric operation. Installing a motor and an opening device from a kit allows you to convert any gate so it can open and close automatically. Be sure to buy the correct type of opener for your gate style. For example, some openers are specific to swinging gates, while others are for sliding gates. Get familiar with your swinging or sliding gate parts before you go shopping to avoid having to return to the store for the correct opener.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

This largely depends on the layout of your property and your preferred walking route to various entryways. Take your time figuring out the perfect spot for the gate to avoid difficulties later on. With all this said, the best place to put a gate is an area free from obstructions that offer the shortest route to your house.
