"It went very smoothly from first contact through job execution. Some neighbors had recommended them as a previous contractor never did the fencing job he had promised. In the end, they were less costly and did a fantastic job."

"Let me start off by saying that Herb is a very nice guy and a hard worker.  It took me  a long time to formulate this review because I wanted some time to sit and I wanted to be fair.  Let me also say that Herb does some things very well and tries hard, but I think people should be aware of both what he does well and what he does not do well. 
I decided on Herb in part because of the schedule he represented (I was having company in a few months and he said he could complete the bathroom on time) and in part price, though he was not a lot less expensive than others I solicited bids from.  In any event, we chose a date with a clear understanding of the date it needed to be completed by.  I live in a older home (built  1925) and it has only 1.5 bathrooms.  Much of the the bathroom was original when I bought the home a year ago.  The bathroom is small and there were no plans (or room) to expand.  It was almost a gut job and replacing tubs, tile, flooring, sink, etc.  Some of the drywall (plaster in this house) stayed as did the ceiling.  I also explained to him three times the detailed plan for what I wanted in the bathroom including "shampoo boxes" that are built into the walls of the shower area.  I also explained that they were labor intensive because of all the tile cutting.  He signed off on it. (I even had the specs of the boxes.)  This was not my first bathroom remodel so I was prepared--I knew what I wanted.
The demo went ok.  The original concrete floor was much thicker than we anticipated, but Herb got through it and the demo was complete in about a day and a half.  Although, in the process, his team cracked and ruined the walls of the adjacent bedroom, stairwell and ceiling below.  (For the most part, he repaired those.)  I was rolling with it since stuff happens.  Almost immediately, I noticed his team dropped by one person.  It was now Herb and one assistant.  That is all fine except his assistant was not allowed to do anything independently.  For example, when Herb was tiling the shower area, his assistant could only run up and down stairs to cut tile instead of working on the plumbing or other items that needed to be done.  He was basically a "gopher" though I am sure he could have done more.  Herb did a good job shimming up the floor joists and making the walls square.  That took awhile, but is obviously worth it.  He gave me an estimate of 2 weeks to finish the job and said that he would work late and weekends if necessary.  By the time he was putting the bathtub in, more than one week had passed.  It was obvious that the bathroom would not be finished on time.  The tiling was painstakingly slow.  It must have taken 4 full days to tile the shower area.  I used subway tile, so it was nothing fancy.  The shampoo boxes, though they turned out great, took forever.  The whole 4 days, his assistant was not allowed to do other work, e.g., the electrical for the heated floor, any plumbing or anything. In any event, needless to say, his promised day came and went and the bathroom was nowhere near ready to use.  Meanwhile, my two kids and I are going to my mom's house to shower. And my company came and the house was a construction zone.
To cut the story down, by the time he left, he was so out of sorts because he had gone way over on time on the job, that he rushed out and made some terrible choices.  My dad is STILL fixing some of the issues we encountered, 2 months later.  My bathroom is not finished.  In all fairness, I did represent to Herb that we would paint.  Easy enough and I have no problem doing that.  It is a good thing too because his finishing work is terrible.  Here were some of the problems:  his trim pieces were too big and not beveled or mitered.  They stuck out and looked terrible.  We replaced those.  He put the curved shower rod so far into the shower that we immediately replaced it, which required us to remove some tiles, replace, and regrout.  He literally took a dirty finger and caulked around the tub so the caulk looks awful, like yellowy; it is terrible against white subway tiles and a white tub.  That still needs to be replaced.  The marble threshhold he put in was cut wrong and caulked terribly.  We still need to replace that.  I went out of town (after the job was supposed to be finished) and had a nightmare that the new toilet blocked the small closet door near it--remember I said old house--quirky too.  Sure enough I came home and the toilet was blocking the closet, yet he still put it in and hooked it up!  The rough in was 15 inches, not 12, yet he failed to discuss that with me when I purchased the toilet, nor did he discuss the option of moving the rough in.  On a day when I just wanted to be able to shower (and should have been able to if the shower rod had been installed) he spent 2 hours in the morning cutting a hole for the new fan only to then read the instructions and discover I needed a hot wire or something different.  I told him to put the old one back up and I would fix it later--which I did.  That two hours could have been spent getting my kids and me into a usable bathroom.
What Herb does well includes working hard, precision work (the tile job looks great) and being generally nice and understanding.  I really feel like he misrepresented his team (he is really a solo guy) and project management.  My bathroom is still not totally finished.  The drain in the sink is slow and the drain was put in crooked, so I want it reset so the gasket does not show, among other things. 
I really like Herb and I would recommend him for smaller jobs or jobs that don't require finishing work.  In addition, the owner of the property should be present to avoid mistakes because his judgment, especially on aesthetics or design, is not up to par in that he hadn't worked enough with these items to have any knowledge that something was not done right.  In fact, he seems like he hasn't heard of many things like shampoo boxes, heated floors (this was his first install) and a curved shower rod.  It was interesting.
If I needed new drywall, if I needed a fence replaced or a window redone or a deck replaced, he would be great, but a whole bathroom was too much for him.  All that said he was also receptive to feedback and wants to do better.

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Glass fences are extremely strong. You can drop 10mm thick tempered glass on concrete and it wouldn't break. Considering that certain types of glass are bulletproof, glass has the capacity to be exceptionally durable and resistant to breaking. Certain types of glass, like laminated glass, are designed to not shatter at all, but rather break into giant pieces.

Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.

You should stain both sides of your fence to get the full benefits. Fences often fall along property lines, so you may want to save a buck by leaving your neighbor’s side in the dust. If you do that, all you get is a slightly better view. Moisture and UV rays can still sneak in through the side that’s unpainted or worn down and damage your fence. Rot and rust will spread, even if you can’t see it from your side of the lawn.

The most common height of a front yard fence is around 3 feet high, but it can vary depending on your zoning laws. If your fence is meant to create privacy, something closer to 6 feet or higher will do the trick. Most of the time, the highest fence you’ll see is 8 feet tall.

Installing an aluminum fence typically takes one to three days, depending on the fence's size, layout complexity, and site conditions. Simple, straight-line installations may take just a day, while larger or more intricate designs with slopes or obstacles can extend the timeline. Professional contractors often complete the job faster than DIY installations.
