"I used this company for a couple of months. The owner was extremely professional, however, his work staff wasn't as attentive to details as needed. Missed spots, inconsistent weed eating areas, grass not cleared from driveway and/or street, etc. I spoke with Mr. Balderas numerous times, it just didn't improve (I honestly feel he tried his best, he even adjusted his work crew membes). I had to move on to another service."

"Valdez landscape and fence did an absolutely awesome job!! Enrique and his crew were very professional, efficient, good communicators, and even were able to accommodate my wife and I on some particular custom requests we had for our fence. Everything turned out better than I could’ve envisioned. Truly a great company! Hire with confidence!"

"David and his crew performed the installation of a driveway gate for us. I procured the gate, posts, automatic openers, accessory systems, wiring, etc. ahead of the installation. It took us a while to find a quality contractor that was willing to perform the “labor only” and didn’t force us to purchase the gate materials as part of a package. We appreciated David’s willingness to take on this type of working arrangement. We consulted with David along the way right up to the installation date. He was courteous responsive with his guidance. Overall, we found the timeliness of work and pricing to be very reasonable. We had a some subtle changes to the work scope along the way; however, David was able to maintain his original estimate. We needed to trench about 300’ of wire from the house to the road. David and his crew were willing to pick-up, use, and return our rental equipment for us – we appreciated this. In the spirit of full disclosure, here are the reasons I’m unable to give an “A” rating. (1) The cut in the driveway is not parallel to the gate … so it’s a slightly diagonal cut. Recommend snapping a chalk line, etc. Measure 2x, cut 1x. (2) Burial of the 300’ of wire was done somewhat quickly and the wire was a little taught … I’ve had to take time to re-bury several sections, (3) Misalignment of holes drilled into the gate posts (off by 3” … this is a lot) … this was done in haste by a crew member, not David. I did have to plug/paint the area for aesthetics and rust avoidance. The posts are 100 pound, 4”x4” steel which I had procured separately … more care needs to be taken with the accuracy of measurements."

"Extremely pleased with the work they did for us installing a fence.  From our first phone call to schedule a visit to get an estimate, Top Choice was very responsive, punctual, and professional.  They were out to measure just a few days after our first phone call and gave me an estimate before he left.  When we called to move forward, they put us on the schedule for just a few weeks later, which was perfect for us, as this allowed us time to get HOA approval.  Once we notified them of our approval they came out just a few days later to install the fencing.
As far as their workmanship goes......Top Notch!  They did an outstanding job and I couldn't be happier with how our fence turned out.  They showed up on time, were very efficient, and, most importantly installed a great looking fence that is built to last.  After seeing how well they did with the fence, I'll definitely be calling them again for future projects.  Great work, Great Value, Great People!

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

A sliding gate, or a sliding gate door, is a versatile gate system used for various applications. Sliding gate mechanisms allow the gate to move horizontally along a track or guide system when opened or closed. They come in multiple types, including sliding folding gates, telescopic gates, cantilever gates, and track sliding gates. These gates are known for their durability, ease of installation, and user-friendly operation, making them popular for property access and security.

Fence gates sag because they have no support on the latch side of the gate to help hold them aloft. A gate wheel fixes that problem by providing support for that latch side. Remember that the ground must be level in front of the gate so the wheel can roll freely when you open and close it. If the terrain is uneven or slopes, a gate wheel won’t work.

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.

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.
