"We had Garden Structures & More add onto the beautiful privacy fence they had previously built for us, and we couldn't be happier with the final result. Our new and improved fence is even better than we had envisioned due to owner/designer/craftsman Hal's excellent ideas. All work was completed in a timely and professional manner. We truly enjoyed working with Hal and wouldn't hesitate to have him do our next home project. "
"Excellent. From the quoting process to cleanup, I have been extremely happy with the workmanship, attention to details, courtesy, communication and timeliness of the work. The owner, Jim, was the utmost professional and very clear in explaining what would be done, even going the extra mile to do special touches to give the highest quality job possible."
"The salesmen slow down and no follow up. We had to keep calling to get the work ordered and into the company's shop. Once there, the crew was fast, polite and very knowledgeable."
"Galen and his daughter split from their partner last fall (2013) and the quality has suffered. While I have had previous excellent work by them, the last two projects didn't happen on time and the quality was less than I'd come to expect from them. "
If you want your project to be handled with care, quality and integrity then myself and my crew are your answer. I prioritize clear and cordial communication, excellence in the quality of service, and honesty of my character, work, and that of those I work with. I believe anyone can “satisfy” a customer, that is why “satisfactory” is not enough, we go the extra mile whenever we can.

Porticos last 25 to 60 years, depending on the material used. A portico’s roof typically matches the roof of the rest of the home and can be replaced simultaneously. Portico columns have a similar life span if properly maintained and regularly sealed. In some areas, harsh weather and extreme temperatures may cause a portico to wear more quickly.
The average cost to build or install a gazebo is around $5,700, with prices typically ranging from $3,000 to $10,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the gazebo's size, shape, material, and design complexity. For example, square gazebos and those made from metal can be more expensive, while brick is a more affordable material. Adding custom features like built-in seating or lighting will also increase the price. You can potentially save money by purchasing a prefabricated kit or performing some of the labor yourself.
The main purpose of a gazebo is to provide a covered space for people to gather comfortably. They’re an excellent place for summertime get-togethers because the roof protects you and your guests from the sun. However, gazebos can also serve as a design feature, adding a bit of charm to a backyard or garden.
Professionals ensure safe, thorough repairs using quality materials, extending the life of your structure.
