"The Zimmer estimator was polite, friendly, and did a great job of explaining everything. Their selection of gates is somewhat limited due to shipping and Covid-related delays; not their fault. The experience was positive throughout."

"Great work by Angel and his crew! We had a 300 sq foot paver patio installed, along with removal of existing stone and brick patio, installation of a walkway to garage and back door, remediation of drainage issue with installation of a drainage pipe, and planting grass seed. Angel quoted us several months ago and when we were ready, they came back out and completed the work within a week."

"It looks great. It's not a 'normal' fence. I found something I wanted on Pinterest, and Skip and his crew did it exactly how I wanted. It took longer than he thought it would, partially because of the weather and partially because the wire mesh was hard to find. They had to drive around Columbus, Newark, and Zanesville to find something that would work. He even bought something that he decided was too flimsy, installed one piece and decided it wasn't good enough quality. AND, he passed on the $125 price difference to us. Good guy doing good work!"

"Luis Perez did a great job! He repaired our existing fence in several spots, removed old fencing, and installed new fencing with a double gate along the back of our property. We appreciated how quickly he performed the fence repair and installation, and how polite and professional he was. We would definitely hire Luis Perez again!"

"Outstanding; This is an excellent company to work with. I am extremely pleased with the installation of my BUCKEYE patio with the infamous BLOCK O. It is absolutely perfect and was completed right before the season begins. What else could you ask for. Life is good. Everyone, from the office personnel , to the estimator and the 2 crew members were courteous and very efficient. Even the last detail of clean-up was done so nothing remained. I will use this business again and recommend to whoever asks. Have a great day.

"This turned out well. It was supposed to be done last fall, but due to the weather, he postponed it. He kept in contact with us and came out in the spring, which is exactly what he said he would do. The lawn took well to the aeration and overseed. Everything worked out fine and I would recommend him for the future."

"Bill (owner) came out to give me a quote on installing a fence across the back and down one side of my back yard. He took measurements, gave me advice on the type of materials that could be used, and gave me a quote on the spot. Shortly afterward I accepted the quote and told them that I was waiting on the removal of some stumps from diseased trees that were removed earlier (hence the fence!). Bill gave me a time line of a few weeks out, but actually started in a couple days. The fence was up before I knew it, and the price was as quoted. Can't ask for much more than that!

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.
It might be possible to install your own manual driveway gate rather than an automatic one, but we don’t recommend it. Driveway gates are large, heavy, and bulky, and getting them to your house and maneuvering them for installation can be dangerous. It’s also challenging to install the gate and balance it perfectly so that it functions as expected, and wiring any automation mechanisms for your gate is also dangerous and requires help from an electrician. We recommend leaving the work to a professional driveway gate installer.
Driveway gates are expensive to install, but they are usually a worthwhile investment. Not only does this exterior feature improve your curb appeal and, by extension, your property value, but they also help keep your home secure. Driveway can keep out unwanted guests and provide additional privacy for you and your household. Plus, they can serve as a means of keeping children and pets in your yard, depending on the type of fence.
In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a driveway gate unless you plan on removing an existing gate and installing a new one. You can either ask your driveway gate installer or your local building department to determine if a permit is required in your area and for your specific project. If you live on a corner property, additional restrictions may be attached to your permit that prevent you from installing a gate over a certain height or a privacy fence. Make sure you check with your installer about permitting before choosing a gate.
The average cost to install a driveway gate is around $3,500, and prices usually total between $1,900 and $6,000. However, security and driveway gates can cost as much as $12,000. Some cost factors include the size of the gate, the type of gate, the gate material, and the security level of the gate. A wrought iron gate will be more expensive than a PVC driveway gate, which will typically cost more than a wood gate. Automated gates are always more expensive than manual ones, as they require additional electrical installation.
