"Provider was suppose to return and finish laying sand on the patio. Since job was very close to complete, I paid him rather than wait. I never heard from him again. The sand has since washed out in spots and another provider is correcting the situation with polymeric sand. Other than the sand issue, the patio looks good in the way it is laid out. Provider was punctual, and the project went very fast considering it was in the middle of the winter.

"Steve was very punctual, showing up early every day. The work didn't exceed the estimate, and he was very good about explaining any needed changes as they came up. His knowledge of construction standards was very helpful and one of the main reasons we chose Townside. The projects listed were not done in a single contract, but over three seperate visits. The fit and finish of all of the projects are second to none. We will definitely use Townside in the future.

"Falcon Renovations provides quality craftsmanship and workmanship that is both creative and elegant as well as concentrated and focused whether a touch up or a whole project completion. Suggestions are offered to locate best price points for paint, wood and supplies for clean lines and an exciting finish. with a thoughtful review of what is most effective regarding the safety of home and what could potentially be hazardous. I have never found Falcon's suggestions to be anything but outstanding while their respect for our home improvement ideas was always what they worked to accomplish. They are talented. Becca Mick is a wonderful professional to work with and the Owner, Donald Grantham, is A+ in everything with respect to a home from carpentry, to electricity and plumbing, lighting, fixtures, decks, and heating, painting, and appliances Mr. Grantham did a couple times protect us from what may have become overextended and unnecessary interventions going on in the house at the same time he was working. He is always kind, professional, patient, and provides the highest quality work at the most affordable price that is competitive. Many times Falcon performed extra work that had been in need of repair for many months, and without a charge. I highly recommend this Donald Grantham and his group of talented professional people,"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Installing a picket fence includes measuring and marking the area where you plan to build the fence, laying out all of the materials, digging post holes, setting the posts using concrete, measuring the rails, attaching the rails, attaching the pickets, and then painting or staining the fence if you chose a wooden fence material

Most homeowners don't need to inform their neighbors before constructing a fence, according to the law, but you will need to make sure that you’re building on the property line or on your side of the property line. Otherwise, the neighbor could complain, which would require you to tear down and reinstall the fence. In any case, keeping them in the loop is the neighborly thing to do!

Whether you inform your neighbors or not, always use property records and a land survey to ensure your fence stays within your property boundaries.

In terms of materials, chicken wire mesh will be the most inexpensive option to use when building your fence. The downside is that it’s not the most attractive garden fence option. In a similar vein, you could choose a DIY fence made out of repurposed items, like car tires, or wooden pallets, either of which would be free to collect. 

Generally, the height of your dog fence should be 3 times the distance from the ground to your dog’s shoulder. For most small breeds, a 4-foot high fence will be more than enough to keep them from jumping out. Medium-sized breeds like Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and German Shepherds will need at least a 5-6 foot fence to stay contained. Large breeds that are also excellent jumpers, such as Greyhounds, may need a 7-foot high fence. 

If you come face-to-face with a wolf in your yard, chances are it will be afraid of you as a human. Make eye contact and get big—waving your arms to increase your size. Use noisemakers or air horns if you have them, or throw a few rocks around to discourage them from approaching you. If all else fails and the wolf does not retreat, back away slowly while maintaining eye contact and find safe ground, whether indoors or up a tree.
