"They did a beautiful job. Update as of 09/24/2026 Did not take fence angled like he said. Cut off left jagged edge. Did not give receipt for final project, when I text he said he sent it then turned his messages off."

"lkkllWork was done promptly and carefully, with little disruption of basement.  Included was the installation of a sump pump.
In the two years since installation, the system has worked beautifully and the walls, parts of which had gotten very wet, are now completely dry.

"It 'WENT' very smoothly!
He was easy to work with, did everything I asked, and did it well. 
The only problem was that the instructions for hanging the Roman shades were somewhat confusing, but we managed
to figure that out. and they look great.
ALL of the things I've mentioned are things I could have done myself years ago--except the Roman shades. Most
'handymen'  I've met  don't seem interested in doing these smallish things--but often the small things are the most
important to keeping a house 'working',
I'm very pleased with this provider!

"He did some flashing around some windows that were excellent. The roofing work he did was excellent and he repaired an issue. However, I was not pleased at all with the replacement of siding that I had him do. Where the outlet comes out for the exhaust from the dryer, I had previously had it removed and there was a hole left there. It was covered with tin and I had wanted it to be replaced with siding. He was going to install and match the siding. He was unable to match it and what he put up there was horrible. He spent a lot of time looking to match the siding before he said they no longer made that siding and he was unable to match it at all. It was poorly matched and you could see the tacking that was put up there. I told him I was not pleased with the job and I would have preferred the silver tin that the previous contractor had put over it over the various off color and poor tack job of putting up this siding. I also think that the cost for the deal was too much for the work that he did."

"An eight foot section of PVC fence was taken down buy a very large branch. He was able to repair it to like new condition. I sent him many pictures with dimensions and he was able to put it back together without having to replace it with a new panel. The fence I had was a discontinued style. He saved me money and didn't have to replace it with something that would not match. I'd recommend him to anyone.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

The best under-gate dog barrier is one that extends to the ground. This effectively keeps dogs in and won't give them room to squeeze through. However, dogs that dig can still get under the barrier. Deter digging by paving the ground beneath the gate or filling it in with rocks or gravel. Be careful using wire to extend dog gates, as the sharp ends may cut or hurt your dog's paws.

The obvious disadvantage of an automatic gate is that it runs on electricity. If the power goes out, it won’t open or close unless there’s a manual override. Many homeowners will need a backup generator so they don’t get stuck on either side of the gate, particularly when looking to park a vehicle. Automatic gates are also much more complicated than manual gates, with tech-heavy components that make them more expensive to repair.

Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.
