"The job was done in a very professional manner paying attention to detail and quality of the supplies provided and used for the fencing. The job was done efficiently and exactly to the specifications that I required. He made sure that I was satisfied with the job at different stages of the construction. I had one or two specific things that I wanted done and he made sure that they were installed properly as they were being done. He worked very neatly and cleaned up all of the property of any cut or waste materials. His men were very proficient at performing their individual tasks paying attention once more to quality and to my satisfaction. "

"I'd like to start by saying that the finished product looks pretty good but the process to get there was a chore. The major problems were: 1. Just before we signed the contract, the owner of Contour Construction had verbally promised that steps would be taken to protect our home during demolition/construction; specifically plastic put up to minimize dust migrating to other rooms and existing hardwood floors would be protected from damage. Neither of those were done. Consequently, our entire house was full of dust and the existing hardwood floors were severly damaged. As of today there has been no contact from the owner to resolve the issue of the damaged floors. He just left them as is. 2. Another unfulfilled promise was that someone would be on the site to supervise the individual workers. That did not happen either. The owner was good about letting us know when someone was coming to the house but they would arrive alone and unsupervised. Many times the work was done well. However, there were instances where the work had to be redone. This could have been avoided if there was someone there to oversee the quality of the work. Plus, since the owner was rarely on-site during the renovation he had to rely upon the word of his worker(s) who, on a couple of occasions had deliberately misinformed him avoid admitting mistakes! 3. The contracted time period was listed as 3-4 weeks, starting July 1. The last worker left the second week of September; that's 10 weeks! Much of that was the result of poor planning and work having to be redone. In summary the owner of this company probably considered me overly demanding but I wasn't about to ignore shodding workmanship just to avoid "making waves". My philosphy was what would a potential buyer see when s/he looked at the bathroom. With oversight the work would have been done right the first time and this project could have been completed within the contracted time frame. Our theory is that Contour Construction had taken on more work that they could handle at the time and that our project was low on their priortiy list. Again, I believe that the problems we encountered could have been avoided by first, the owner fulfilling the promises he made and second the work had been supervised by someone who had a committment to quality. These were our experiences with Contour Construction. Perhaps someone else would have better luck with them. My suggestion would be get every detail no matter how trivial in writing with no verbal promises as well as being assertive and stopping work immediately if a provision of the contract was not being followed especially workers that are not being supervised.
Aluminum is among the longest-lasting fencing materials, with a lifespan of 30 to 50 years or more. One of the reasons it lasts so long is because aluminum is highly resistant to rust and corrosion. You can help prolong its lifespan by keeping it free of vegetation and cleaning it every few months with a hose and mild soap.
There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
Yes, you can use a floor jack to remove fence posts. Attach a stem to the base of the fence post so you can position the floor jack underneath. The stem can be a scrap piece of wood attached with nails or a sturdy nail itself. Put the jack beneath the stem and push the lever to lift up on the fence post and remove it from the ground.
A fence gate can sag for several reasons. The issue often stems from the hardware, such as damaged or bent hinges, or loose screws that can no longer support the gate's weight. The gate frame itself might also have come out of square due to failing supports. Alternatively, the problem may not be the gate but the supporting fence post, which could be leaning or out of place. In many cases, fixing a sagging gate is as simple as tightening the hinge screws or upgrading to more robust hinges.
It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.
