Jason was responsive and communicative throughout, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. The crew was pleasant, respectful, and left the space spotless. Not only did they go above and beyond what we originally discussed, but they also took care of all my fall yard cleanup while they were there — a thoughtful touch that truly set them apart.

"Next Level did a sprinkler system installation for me. Julian, the point person and (I think) owner for Next Level, communicated well throughout the process. He took his time to explain the technology, his reasoning for the proposal, the timeline, and the options and tradeoffs. His quote was the most competitive among the 4 I received, and he took care of everything. We had a couple of hiccups due to weather, but he otherwise delivered on the schedule he promised the day he provided the quote. The team was fast (completed the project in about 6 hours) and very neat. Very happy with the outcome."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on material, size, design complexity, and additional features like lighting or seating.

Clean regularly, treat wood for weather resistance, and inspect for damage to ensure longevity.

The cost of a pergola varies depending on the style you choose. The average price is between $2,100 and $6,400 for materials and installation. On the low end, a standard pergola will cost between $20 and $55 per square foot, while a retractable pergola will cost between $900 and $3,000 to build. If you plan to build the pergola over a pre-existing deck or patio, that will increase the cost.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

If you are installing a fiberglass pool, you may want to install or update your patio or deck at the same time to create a safe, comfortable place to sit and dry off or grab a bite to eat after swimming. You might also consider adding a hot tub to the mix, which costs $6,000 on average.
