"My 1970's ramble needed an update but I was feeling overwhelmed by having to get multiple bids and talk to different contractors. I was never sure if I was getting the best "bang for my buck" until I got lucky and found Young Guns. Anthony and Brandon are amazing to work with! I had several projects that I wanted to do and asked if they would provide separate bids for each project so I could be sure to stay within budget. They were more than willing to do this for me. First project on my list was my upstairs bathroom which we took down to the studs. I did not want a "tub surround" so they installed a new tub, complete tub to ceiling tiling, new shower and faucets, new tile flooring, new sheetrock and paint. The end result was absolutely beautiful! Next was the new Pergo flooring throughout the entire upstairs and painting each of the 3 bedrooms. New doors and trim (we went with the craftsman look - their suggestion). Tore out the old wood burning stove in the living room and installed an electric fireplace. We are almost done in the living room and I hope the boys post a picture on their web site. I am thrilled with the end result! Finally the kitchen. We are waiting for the new cabinets to come. Anthony says any day now. We installed new "can" lights and a new skylight when we removed the old evaporative cooler off the roof. Did I mention I have central air now? I cannot rave enough about the professional workmanship these guys provided and the attention to detail. Both guys are friendly and professional. More important they were honest in their dealings with me. I felt comfortable leaving them the keys to my home each day while I went to work. I am going to tackle the basement area next year. I won't even bother to look for anyone else to do the work. They are absolutely first on my list."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.

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.

The most common cause of gate sensors not working is damaged wiring. Only a professional should diagnose this because it requires working with the system's electronics. There are safety concerns, but more than that, you don't want to accidentally short out your system or cause any electrical damage. Insects, rodents, and fallen branches are common reasons your wiring could become damaged.
