"Andy was referred to me by the sales agent who helped me to sell my home. To sell the house I needed a fan in the bathroom to be vented outside to the soffit properly, and some rafters inside the house and the garage needed to be sistered to strengthen the beams.
While Andy was difficult to get a hold of on several occasions, he did a great job when he was here. I personally felt the price was a bit high for the amount of time he was here, but I was ultimately satisfied that I got what I paid for. He also had to crawl around the attic towards the end of summer, which I didn't want to do, so the work was a bit more difficult.
If you can be patient, Andy is a good guy to work with on your home improvement projects.

I am branching off from a larger company restoring log homes. I am starting a new branch of log home restoration because I could see that the other log home company was just in the business for money. when I was on a job with the owner of the other company I work for my coworker did sloppy work and the owner of the company liked his work because he got it finished faster.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

While spring gates close gently but firmly, they’re not a foolproof solution for securing your yard to prevent pets or kids from escaping or unwanted guests from entering. Installing a gate latch that is sturdy and lockable with a self-closing mechanism is more effective, especially when used alongside other methods for keeping your home safe, such as cameras or motion detectors.

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.

Yes, many providers offer reinforced steel, fire-rated, and electronic access doors for businesses.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

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.
