"Jeremy came quickly and assured me it was an easy and fast fix and he just needed an additional part he'd pick up in Sandy. He came back, repaired it within 10 minutes and it works great.
BUT.....because I have worked with Earthworks before, they were, of course, my first (my ONLY) call.  Nowhere on Angie's List and never during my conversation with Marissa was I told there was a two-hour minimum (all the other projects they've done were much bigger, so it never came up).  At $65/hour, this 10 minute job cost me$130!  Had I known, I would have looked for a local handyman and that is certainly what I'll do in the future.  And, yes, I did talk with Marissa at Earthworks regarding the bill and it stands as billed.
I'm sorry, guys, you've lost my business.

"Jason and his wife were so easy to work with. They listened to what we wanted and ran with it. We did a complete front and backyard remodel and they did it all! New sod, cement, sprinkler system, front and back porch, fence, cement pad, they pulled and cut trees and new rails around the patio. We have a completely new front and backyard. It’s so beautiful. We spend a lot of time outside just admiring their work. They were professional, fast and offered us the most reasonable price for everything we wanted. We would definitely hire AMT Concrete & Services again!"

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

Automatic gates don’t use too much electricity, and you should see a minimal effect on your utility bill. In fact, certain gate systems are entirely self-sufficient and rely on solar panels attached to or near the gate to power the motor. While a gate is large and there is a powerful motor moving it, it’s not something that sees constant use throughout the day. For most automatic gates, expect to see a utility bill increase of only around $10 per month.
