"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!"

"Did exceptional work, but postponed three times. Owner, David was very nice and helpful. Owner was not aware of the trouble I had. I had given someone at office the stain number. Once had postponed due to weather and then postponed due to someone at office did not follow through on indicating the stain color I had chosen. Then received a call they found email that I had sent with stain number. David came out and the stain was transparent which would not work on my deck, he assisted and was very helpful in picking out a stain. He went over what had to be done to reschedule and assist with stain to get the job accomplished. He came out memorial day to do the job which was a holiday, only issue I had was he was late in the morning getting there and with previous experience I was not sure he was coming, tried to call but mail box full and could not reach anyone, needed to find out if he was planning on coming. I do not want to give him a bad review because he is very pleasant and helpful and indicated he has addressed the issue of scheduling appointments. He also upgraded the stain since I had experienced the trouble with scheduling."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

You can install a privacy cover on your wrought iron gate anytime. However, pick a dry day if you apply stain or paint to the paneling. If you’re hiring a local fencing contractor, they often offer better rates in their low season outside the busy spring and summer months.

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.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

Installing a gate on your property is often a worthwhile investment, despite the initial expense. Gates enhance your home's curb appeal and can increase its property value, making them more attractive to potential homebuyers. They provide significant security benefits by keeping out unwanted guests and increasing privacy for your household. Additionally, a gate can help keep children and pets safely contained in your yard.

For driveway gates, automatic versions are particularly convenient and tend to add more value than manual ones. The choice of gate material also plays a role in both aesthetic appeal and security. Beyond driveways, side gates can improve accessibility to your rear yard, making the outdoor space more usable. Overall, whether for security, safety, or aesthetics, installing a gate is a valuable addition to a property.

Wood, wrought iron, aluminum, and steel are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.
