"What I loved about this company was that the salesperson was very responsive and was willing to put all terms and conditions in a typed contract. The work was performed as promised in a timely fashion. I obtained 4 other bids and their prices were competitive. In general, I am happy with the installation. The workers were cordial and patient in making adjustments to get the fence to look the way I wanted (my property is slightly hilly). The only caveat is that you should plan to be home to oversee the work as stuff comes up about the positioning of the fence, gates, and the height of the gap over irregular terrain.

"It was great!  4 of my immediate neigbors were getting the same kind of fence, so it was a smooth process.  The crew was punctual, worked hard, and did a quality job for a reasonable price.  Ultimately, it was a good experience, and I would recommend the company to others."

"They were fantastic.  They listen & were careful w/ my elderly disabled father's apt., and when there were problems, they coped without complaining.  They had to deal with a completely different installation, a shock to us because it was the same bldg. Different wall materials, layout, etc.  They helped us find solutions even apologized when they could not find a way in one room but had several suggestions for needed materials. They will get the job when I am ready to fix that room.

"Malik runs a very professional operation. From the time of initial phone contact with Malik (yes, he does answer his own phone) to the final post-job cleanup, this was a hassle-free project for me. Malik's crew showed up promptly each morning, and under the supervision of Malik or his equally capable foreman ("Mr. Z"), every detail of this work was performed in a skilled, highly competent and precise manner. Once begun (except for rain days), the job was continued through completion. Worth noting also is the fact that, although he was aware of my budget limitations, Malik was able to deliver a first-class job which the quality of the finished product reflects. I would enthusiastically recommend him to any Angie's List member (and will be contacting him myself for all future work on my house).

"Initially Mike Meehan himself came to the house as part of the big deal purchase which I hadn't realized was for a type of roof that we didn't have. However, once I told him what we needed done around windows flashing and fixing gutters, he took a look at everything including the rooms that had peeling paint. He also went into my attic to make sure there was no damage there. He wrote up an estimate right then and we scheduled the work for this week on July 30th. He came when he said he would and did everything he said he would do and came back again today to finish up some sanding of the spackling he did inside the house. I am still in shock given my prior experiences with roofing professionals in my area who rarely come when they say they will and in some cases after I decided to use them never showed up with a contract. Meehan Renovations was such a refreshingly pleasant group of people to deal with and I am feeling much better about the ability of our house to weather the next big storm. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Many contractors offer warranties for materials and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.

The most common cause of gate sensors not working is damaged wiring. Only a professional should diagnose this because it requires working with the system's electronics. There are safety concerns, but more than that, you don't want to accidentally short out your system or cause any electrical damage. Insects, rodents, and fallen branches are common reasons your wiring could become damaged. 

You don’t need a permit for an automatic gate in most cities because it isn’t a structural change to your home, but you need to check. A pro can help you with this and since we don’t recommend installing an automatic gate yourself, you should already be in contact with one, making this a frictionless question. Outside of permit requirements, you need to consider your homeowners association (HOA), as some are against gated homes.
