He was happy to do the work. Nice guy. Seemed totally on the up and up. Did an ok job, there were issues, still are (lots of splitting boards, nails sticking out, missed nails into posts so some of the pickets are loose and the section his buddy nailed is not spaced evenly so it looks sloppy). Originally I would have given him 5 stars, then 4 after I noticed all the issues, then 3 after his first kinda fix.....now he gets an end result 1 star (negative stars if I could). The worst issue - Once my main driveway gate started to have issues, it was a huge hassle to get him over to fix it. Once he finally came to look it over, all he did was change the hardware. That "fix" only lasted as long as the first set. Now the gates are dragging badly on my driveway and completely twisting up. I gave up trying to get in touch after leaving many messages with both him and his office manager (wife). I have no idea what else I needed to do to get him to follow through on the warranty work for the gates. Now I am forced to hire and pay another company to fix my gates that have been an issue less than one year after being built. I am a very calm, cool, reasonable person, all he had to do was follow up and fix his work. What a shame. I'm happy to revise this review if he finally decides to fix his work like a reputable contractor. read more
