"We got quoted to add a bathroom and small bedroom in our basement. In the contract, it said it would take 4 weeks to finish the job, with a stated number of hours worked per week that they never came close to acheiving. Most days they either didn't show up, or only worked a couple hours. They often said they would show up in the morning, and would cancel or not show up til around noon. They installed a shower with the walls on the wrong side and numerous other problems. They didn't even know that the water line for the toilet goes on the left side, not the right. They built a wall that they said would be flush to the existing wall, and was flush at one end, with a 1 inch gap at the other. Their plan for putting in an egress window was completely stupid. And they wanted to put in a 5 inch riser for a sanipro toilet, when there was not supposed to be one. A quick youtube search showed the proper way to install it. They told us they didn't need to pull permits. We were later told by the inspector that they should have and he recommended that we contact a lawyer because their work was completely unacceptable. We fired them after 2 weeks, he kept the down payment money that we gave him, and we have to pay another contractor to fix their work and finish the job."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.

Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.

A Trex gate costs $750 plus another $200 for the hardware pack necessary for installation. By contrast, Trex fencing ranges in price from $22 to $38 per linear foot, so you may pay a lot or a little depending on just how much space you need to enclose in your yard. 

To stop trash from blowing under your gate, you can install anti-litter netting. This solution prevents most large debris from being blown inside of a controlled area and is often used in construction sites. Many types of netting are not designed for permanent use, so you may need to search for a style that matches your gate color.

Instead of a security door, you might opt for a heavy-duty screen door made from durable mesh, which allows better sunlight and airflow. Additionally, you could enhance security by installing strong locks on your existing door. A double-cylinder deadbolt provides robust security; however, be aware that some local laws prohibit them due to safety concerns during emergencies.
