"
Our house is old (>110 years) and while it's not large, the roof is complicated with multiple gables and chimneys. We responded to a cold call from this company regarding their drive-by observation that we needed roof repair.  What they didn't know is that we were ready to do the whole thing, not just patch up a spot or two, and so we asked them for an estimate for the whole job.  The work was to remove the old roof and replace it, and to re-roof a covered porch area that required fashioning a slope for drainage where there was none, and removing and patching areas where ornamental woodwork had been added years ago by a previous owner.  They were responsive, courteous and punctual, and entirely professional.  The work crewmen were courteous and professional.  The job took a little longer than they had predicted, but we did not care about that and just wanted a good job done, which we feel we received.  We would happily work with them again."

"John is just starting to work for us. He is friendly and has been very helpful in helping us complete our project. We had a bad experience with another contractor and Donco Construction is willing to help get us back on track. They are working very hard to help correct the problems Ben Semchee has caused. The crew is great and we are very happy. Donco also is finishing the addition and corrected the framing problems. The framing issues we had may have contributed to the drywall issue that have occured later in the project but I think the drywall has issues that Donco Construction has not fixed. waiting for them to come back."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

Even if you have extensive experience working with electronics or gates, we recommend leaving this repair to a local gate repair professional. Small tasks, such as battery replacement or debris removal, can be DIY projects, but more involved repairs require a pro’s skills and knowledge. Whenever wiring is involved, it’s easy to cause serious damage to your gate’s system, which can lead to bigger, more costly problems.

To make your gate safe, purchase a gate made from strong material such as wrought iron, stainless steel, or other metals. Ensure that the gate has strong joints and bars that are welded on rather than inserted loosely. If you’re concerned about people climbing over your gate, you can deter them by installing fence spikes along the top as an extra precaution.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

Automatic gates don’t use too much electricity, and you should see a minimal effect on your utility bill. In fact, certain gate systems are entirely self-sufficient and rely on solar panels attached to or near the gate to power the motor. While a gate is large and there is a powerful motor moving it, it’s not something that sees constant use throughout the day. For most automatic gates, expect to see a utility bill increase of only around $10 per month.

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.
