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

"The guy I met with was great from the company.  The person who came to do the work was not great.  Very nice but didn't show up the day I was told but came the next date.  That didn't really bother me because I didn't need to be home for it.  Just thought the overall work was ok to marginal at best.  The lattice work wasn't very good.  We couldn't afford the person I wanted to go with but know I regret the decision.

"He came out when he said he was going to. He gave me a decent price and a discount because I'm an Angie's List member. He grabbed my snow shovel to dig my car out so that he wouldn't have to get too close with his equipment. He went above and beyond what he needed to. I have a hundred foot driveway and he got the extra snow on the sides as well and around the mailbox."

"This bathroom remodel was a dream come true!  Brad was prompt, courteous, and such a diligent worker.  The entire project took a little over 3 weeks, and Brad kept us well-informed of each step of the process.  It was extremely helpful that Brad has so many contacts - he was able to get us the best price on granite, marble, glass, and Amish hand-crafted cabinets.  We would highly recommend Brad, he is truly a gifted craftsman."

"Brian and his crew were on time, friendly and professional.  It happened to rain as the project was nearing the end, but Brian and his crew continued to work to make sure that the opening got enclosed and water tight even as they were getting soaked.
The new door was larger than the door being replaced, so they needed to widen the opening.  They took great care to not make a mess on my hardwood floors while they cut the 2x4s and Sheetrock to enlarge the opening.  Whenever a problem came up, Brian always informed me of my options to fix the problem before just proceeding the way he thought it should be done.
The next day he and his painter came over and painted the new door and trim, then they painted two other doors for me.  They went above and beyond what I expected and I am going to use them again soon.

"It went great! Jeff came out and made sure that he divided the duplex directly down the middle and got to work really fast. The job was tough because he had to go through a lot of concrete and blacktop but he got it done. He also installed a gate for each side and they're great. We did have an issue with the way one was settling, nothing that was done on his part, and he came right out and adjusted the gates. We will 100% use them again for any of her fence needs."

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.

To make your gate safe, purchase a gate made from strong material such as wrought iron, stainless steel, or other metals. Ensure that the gate has strong joints and bars that are welded on rather than inserted loosely. If you’re concerned about people climbing over your gate, you can deter them by installing fence spikes along the top as an extra precaution.

Yes, clean regularly, lubricate hinges or tracks, and inspect for damage to ensure smooth operation.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.
