"The Zimmer estimator was polite, friendly, and did a great job of explaining everything. Their selection of gates is somewhat limited due to shipping and Covid-related delays; not their fault. The experience was positive throughout."

Hello,\nI’m Tom I have been involved in some type of construction since I was little working with my Dad. I have narrowed things down to decks and fences as I love working outside. I do enjoy those small indoor jobs on cold rainy days, putting things together.\nI would love an opportunity to meet and shop with fence repairs or replacement. \nThank you for considering me.\nTom

"Following Steps has been handling weekly lawn mowing for my mom's and my homes now for two months. The young men who work for the company are very respectful of the properties in terms of handling the equipment with care and being conscientious of the houses, cars, and various yard plants. They always close the gates when leaving. They are dependable, reasonably priced and pleasant. This all reflects well on the management and longevity of this fine company."

"I couldn't be happier wth Skip and his crew. They such a good job. My 15 yr old fence looks better than it did when it was brand new. Everything is even and lined up and I can actually open and close both gates. These guys are really hard workers and know what they are doing. This turned out way better than I ever hoped. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

"When they started the project, the concrete which was already cracked, seemed to be coming up pretty well.  When that was removed, they found a lot more gravel under the concrete than they anticipated so it was an additional time and expense to remove that.  The garage sill had to be repoured and they began installing the correct type of gravel and pounding down the base.  Being  April, it rained a lot in there and it slowed the progress as you can imagine.  Can't do much about the weather.  I also had some blocks on my garage foundation that were loose so they refilled the mortar to stabilize the foundation. This is when we found that the gutter drain pipes were broken and clogged.  They installed new piping and we cleaned out the remaining pipes before installing the pavers.  By having the "O" in the middle, it made for a lot more cuts and took some additional time but it was worth it.  They sealed the driveway and finally they installed the sod around the edges.  Along the way Jake had to deal with a major personal issue but handled it very well.  Jake and his crew did a very good job and handled all the little things that came up very professionally.  I don't know of any other contractor who would have worked with me the way they did.  In my opinion, they provided me with a great finished product and I would use them in the future.

"As is common with Angie's List special deals, the service was extremely over subscribed and the process was not executed until the winter had passed, the 2014 spring rains subsided and the lawn was finally aerated.  I saw no seeding or fertilization on the lawn or the driveway. It was not worth the time and effort to call again and have the issue resolved.  I will probably use them again, but will take time off from work to closely supervise the actions and insure I receive everything I am paying for.

"I would highly recommend Micah. He made an appointment for the next day after I contacted him, was punctual and very professional. I found his prices to be very reasonable. And I am extremely happy with the quality of the work. Our patios and walkway look wonderful as do the retaining walls and privacy fence. The excavation was quick and efficient, as was the removal and construction. There were a few problems that arose which were addressed and resolved .

"The sales rep was very professional when he came to my home to provide me with a free estimate on a backyard fence installation. He was able to map out the weidth/length of my backyard, explain location of possible underground power lines, describe style types with also providing me with different payment options. I have decided to use this provide next summer to install my fence.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

It does matter which way a hinge is installed because it’s possible to install a hinge backward. The hinge pin should face the direction in which the door will swing, making the pin visible. Exterior doors that swing outward need a security hinge with an Allen set screw in the center to prevent someone from removing the hinge from the outside and accessing the home or business.

Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.

Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.

A Trex gate costs $750 plus another $200 for the hardware pack necessary for installation. By contrast, Trex fencing ranges in price from $22 to $38 per linear foot, so you may pay a lot or a little depending on just how much space you need to enclose in your yard.
