"There were no problems other than some delays getting started and during the work at least in part due to rain. They laid a new foundation for the bricks, rebuilt the wall under the window and painted it. In a separate project they removed the old side walk and laid a wider new one. They reseeded the grass along the walk that had been disturbed and cleaned up after themselves. Overall pleased with the work and would hire again."

"Great! Jon-Paul and Brian were great to work with. They were extremely knowledgeable regarding hail damage and insurance claims. Both were very helpful with this process. The workers were very hard working young men. Very polite and professional. Before they started tearing the roof off, they covered both decks to protect our patio furniture. After the job was completed, they cleaned up everything. Looked awesome! My husband was also very happy with the job they did with the flashing around the fire place. I would recommend to anyone needing a new roof. Thank you so much for a job well done!"

"
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."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

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.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

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.

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.
