--------------------------------------------------- Nick, We talked on the phone yesterday about a gate I was having built by Custom Ornamental Iron in Belen. They built the gate about 90% for my courtyard and then never installed it, won't return phone calls or emails. I found you guys on Angies List and saw you had a discount for members and a good reputation on there so I'm hoping you can help me get this done. First, here is a picture he posted on Facebook of the mostly finished gate. Also attached is a scan of the 'contract' for the gate so you can see the design. We went with the one shown in the center. He was going to also create a backing plate to cover up the cut away portions so we could have it powder coated a different color (orange or yellow) to make the zia stand out but also block as much wind and sand as possible. I believe the width of the area was 42 inches total, you can see in this picture where it is going. The areas on top of the wall are now filled with some steel art we had built and powdercoated on top of it, and we wanted to powdercoat the main gate to match, and have a spring assisted closing on the gate along with a normal door handle entry (lever style) to match our house. Thegate was going between the wall and he was going to build a post in the dirt strip next to the concrete for it to latch to. I hope this all makes sense. Later we are replacing the fence in the yard with more wall and want a larger or double gate in the middle of that. --------------------------------------------------- In response I got... --------------------------------------------------- thank you for all the information....do you have the gate and need to get it finished or have a new one made ?....FYI the price he gave you was outstanding since he would be paying for material only with that amount...our solid gates start at $750.00 Thank you,
Nick, Casa Di Ferro --------------------------------------------------- I then replied... --------------------------------------------------- I have nothing but the picture. I saw it in person the last time I stopped by about it, the guy is just a con man down there. --------------------------------------------------- I still haven't received another reply yet. No one has come out to measure and give me an official quote, I only got the above. With the past luck I've had with metal fabricators I found another company that is very responsive and respectful to their customers.

Treehouse Building reviews from real Angi homeowners in Los Lunas, NM

In a word, perfect! The owner came out personally and measured our installation; it was a patio double door. He presented photo album of their standard doors that was extensive with many attractive options. We settled on one, and gave him a deposit. They custom build all of their doors to my...

Treehouse Builders questions, answered by experts
It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting.
On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
Licensing requirements for arborists vary by state and municipality, so you should use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to see if your arborist needs a license. Even if an arborist license isn’t mandated in your area, it’s a good idea to hire one that has at least a business license, business insurance, and certification from a third-party organization, like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA). Licensed arborists tend to have more experience and are more likely to provide a professional solution to your tree problem.
If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.
Aim to have your trees inspected and pruned in early spring. At this point in the year, tree service professionals can note where there is old growth from winter and cut that back to encourage new growth for the rest of the year. Pruning at the wrong time of the year could make your trees prone to diseases.
As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
