"Our first project with this company was awesome, which is why we hired them for this job at the end of March. They did tell us that it might take 2 months to start, however at the beginning of May, they contacted us and told us they were going to start sooner. When a week went by, we checked on the status and no response. Another week and no response. Then we received a call saying they would be starting in a week. Finally on June 23 they began the project. Took them two weeks to get it done, after many attempts at trying to change the plan that we had come up with. Also in the process, the end of our driveway was cracked by a cement truck which the owner promised us two weeks ago would be fixed and Gene, the project manager, told my husband on Friday July 16th (after my husband called to check on the status ..again no calls from Green Home) that he would be over the following week to fix the driveway and guess what??? NO SHOW AND NO CALLS. My husband called and left a message for the owner this morning first thing and as of 11:00 a.m., still no phone call back. I don't know what happened to this company from February until now, but it is our intention to not ever use them or recommend them again. They do not stay in touch to give you a status. They do not return calls but they are "johnny on the spot" when it comes to being paid."

"Dillon gave a fair price for storm damage to an old structure. He was upfront with schedule and updated with delays. Final result was very satisfactory. All workers were professional. I will contact Stefaniak for future construction needs. So happy with results!"

"Every thing was smooth beginning with an on the spot estimate and several interactions with their office. They had to deal with a few days of rain which started right after they completed the post installs. The two-man install crew made a few changes to the original plans, at my request, without a problem. Doug, the Lead installer, understood my need to reroute the fencing and came up with a nice solution around a curved area of my driveway. I had "thrown" the change at him on the morning of the install. The Install Crew worked like a crew of one. One guy would start to do something and the other guy was ready to do the next step when the other completed his task. All without either needing to talk to the other. It was fun to watch two work so smoothly. They have MANY years of experience installing all kinds of fence and it showed on my job.
I had also added an extra gate to the original estimate at the last minute and Office Manager Stacie was able to have their vendor add the five foot gate to an order at the last minute so it would make a truck delivery just in time for my installation. Stacie also communicated with me often during the several days of rain so that I had a good idea of her companies plans for the "next work day". Everyone was so professional when interacting with me every step of the way. The fence looks great and my Doberman loves to run in his play yard without restrictions.
I highly recommend Phillips Fencing for any of your fencing needs. If they do half the job they did for me you will not be disappointed.

Mr. Card was fantastic!   He takes great pride in his work. I will never use anyone else.  His is my first call for everything.  He is honest and trustworthily.

He not only repaired out drive but made sure the drainage was done correctly to prevent this from ever happening again.  He also updated our landscaping.  He took great pains to enhance the beauty of the property in a natural and charming way. Weeks later he came by when rain was expected to make sure all of the drainage was working properly.

We could not be happier with the outcome.

"Excellent. Anthony and his team showed up and worked through each of the issues until the problem or enhancement was completed. They even had time to replace a circuit breaker that had frozen causing my pool pump to stop working even though it wasn't part of the original list to complete. They made time to review the issue, switch out the bad breaker and get it running for me again. Anthony's team is courteous and respectful of the house and do really good work. I would and will hire AD Maintenance and Electrical again."

Driveway Gates FAQs, answered by experts

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added sliding gate mechanisms, which can go out from frequent use.

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.

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.

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.
