"The work that was preformed was horrible. This was new construction home and which we thought we hired this company and come to find out they sub contracted the work out. This was a total Sheetrock job. A lot of our personal property was used and damaged, none of the work was complete on 2 separate occasions, the owner was very disrespectful when we called him out on it,etc. I can’t explain everything we went through to get this job done properly. We had to hire someone else to complete the work. Keep in mind we live over 3 hours away and 2 separate trips the work was supposed to be complete. I would not recommend and be careful signing their contract and giving them your direct account information!! They will try and withdraw the money without your knowledge and claim they made attempts to collect which is incorrect!!"

"BEWARE - NOT LICENSED!! I hired Nick for a horse stall project because he installed a trailer hitch for me with no issues. I was told they were licensed contractors, they even advertise it on their page. Over a month later and the horse stall STILL isn't finished to the specifications they themselves set. It has no flashing to protect against water damage, no trim and the gate to the stall swings both ways so no way to keep it shut. Also if you look up, you can see light inside the stall coming through cracks! I would text both of them, no response sometimes for days, sometimes not at all. I would call, no response. I would be told he was coming out and he would never show. Be given excuses about projects he was doing. Finally Nick told me he would come out to finish and I asked if he could complete a whole other project we had discussed because it had been so long and I needed it done, electrical to the stall. He said it could be done, would even add water since he would already have an open trench. Paid money for materials for the new project to be done at the same time he would be finishing the stall. Again, would not give me an honest answer about timeline, became nasty telling me he had other customers who paid him larger sums of money for their projects and he could move me to the front of the line if I gave him a credit card, laughed at my frustration and concern. Stressed to him and Corrine I would no longer be needing their services for the electrical and water and I requested a refund of what I paid for the electrical/water project. They ignored me until I stressed to them I would be taking legal action if not refunded. They then stated to me they would return all but what I owed them for the stall which had NOTHING to do with the money I had paid for the electrical/water. I was current on the stall payments and my next one was not even due for another week! I am now seeking legal action. These two are frauds, not licensed and will take your money. All of the negative reviews online are true and I DON'T believe the positive ones are from actual customers. And I have found out since, this is not the first time legal action has been taken for the same thing. BEWARE!! STAY AWAY!!!! If they try to say anything to you about there are two sides to every story and use excuses as to what occurred, reach out to me, I have NO problem sharing screenshots!"

Yes, most states require a fencing installer to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed fence installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification, which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
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.
The average cost to install a driveway gate is around $3,500, and prices usually total between $1,900 and $6,000. However, security and driveway gates can cost as much as $12,000. Some cost factors include the size of the gate, the type of gate, the gate material, and the security level of the gate. A wrought iron gate will be more expensive than a PVC driveway gate, which will typically cost more than a wood gate. Automated gates are always more expensive than manual ones, as they require additional electrical installation.
The cost to install a pet fence ranges from $1,500 to $8,000 on average. This cost is primarily dependent on the type of fence material and the width and height of the fence and your geographical location.
A wood privacy fence that is 150 linear feet can range from $1,000 to $4,500. However, the same length of fence in aluminum will cost closer to $4,500 to $6,000. In addition, some states are simply more expensive than others to build a fence due to increased demand and cost of living.
