Get matched with top gate for driveway or security installers and replacers in Bothell, WA

"OMG I love my new fence, they came when they said they would. They did the work, cleaned up all the mess and I am so excited to allow my large breed dog outside now. Not to worry if the kids next door will tease or bother me or my dog again. 6 feet high and privacy slates is the way to go, I am bragging to everyone I know, LOVE LOVE LOVE my fence and the price was prefect. Thank you, Duke for doing such a wonderful job. I will call you again if I need to upgrade my chainlink."

"Mike came out and gave and estimate and he was very reasonable. When he came to do the job with someone to help they did the job quickly, efficiently, and the fence looks great. I would not hesitate to recommend Fence Tech or use them again if needed."

"Initially, I contacted Tim K. via the SGA website. He called within a couple of hours and listened to my concerns about our security gate.  <br /> When Tim came over to check the gate, he clearly and patiently explained the various functions. This included showing us how the gate was tied to one of our phone lines. He also tested and then had us practice using the various gate functions. Tim explained the type of gate we had (we are new owners of the house), how to maintain the gate and exactly how to use each function.  <br /> After approximately 45 minutes, we were done and I asked him how much I owed him. He replied, "Nothing, we just hope to have your business in the future." <br /> When our gate needs to be serviced, Tim K. will be the first person I will call. He was easy to reach, responded right away, was punctual, knowledgable, professional and friendly. We were very pleased with every aspect of working with Tim. <br />"

"We are so happy with our new custom fence! This was not a "typical" job. It is a small yard that wraps around the back and sides of the house. We needed some areas to have privacy fencing, and some to have a picket with space between the boards, 4 gates, some pieces to connect to existing fencing, and some of the fence to sit on top of a retaining wall. The fence came out beautifully and totally meets our needs. They were very responsive when we needed the estimate and fully designed proposal. They scheduled the work as quickly as possible, and in the timeline we needed. They are highly recommended."

"Altered Earth is simply the best contractor we have ever worked with - and we've worked with many as we resuscitate our century-old Victorian kit home. AE runs like a clock - on time, on budget, and (most importantly) on goal. Beyond that Mark and the crew at AE can work with vague ideas and turn them into spectacular ones. To find a contractor with both strong creative <em>and</em> project management skills is such a gift. We couldn't recommend him more enthusiastically! <br /> Specifically Mark worked to remodel 1200sf of outdoor space. We have very modern tastes and have struggled, for years, with landscapers who just don't grasp our aesthetic. From our first meeting it was clear Mark was different; he was very enthusiastic and we wound up brainstorming the basic layout in thirty minutes. And it was a collaboration. Mark would bounce ideas off of us, and we to him. Some stuck and others didn't. But it was a real partnership and that was a big win for Altered Earth. <br /> The plan called for around 300 feet of custom fencing, a hardscaped front living space including a large propane fire pit and sleek concrete planters. Mark also shared our passion for lighting and we collaborated on a setup that was both functional and dramatic. Mark also brought some truly innovative ideas to the table, like our built-in shed that is part of the fence line, leveraging an open space between to trees (hard to describe but - trust me - it's brilliant). Or running a propane feed line that terminates inside the shed, elegantly hiding unsightly propane tanks. Basically, at every turn, Mark delivered the most elegant and functional implementation possible. <br /> We did the work in late winter and early spring so there were unavoidable weather delays. Mark kept us informed and dynamically updated expectations based on the latest information. The project was initially planned to end in April but it ran into early May due to inclement weather; hardly something AE can be dinged for! Besides, we'd rather have it done right than hurriedly. <br /> AE has a talented cast of sub-contractors, notably their cement guys who were laboring for about two weeks to ensure the forms were clean, smooth, and level. Getting modern concrete right isn't easy; that smooth finish doesn't just happen. And Mark made sure it all kept to plan. <br /> Billing was awesome. Mark quoted a fixed-budget contract which meant that -- unexpected work or change orders aside -- I didn't have to worry about overruns. And there were NO surprises. Mark cast a budget and <em>stuck</em> to it. I can't begin to describe how much stress that takes out of these things. We've worked with some highly skilled contractors who did amazing work -- but they couldn't control budget so each job was like playing Russian roulette with my finances. Since Mark was heavily involved in the planning he was able to accurately predict cost and the only increases were due to minor but late changes we asked for. <br /> In the end we got the outdoor space we've wanted forever. We spend as much time in it as we can, even when it's cold. Since the space abuts the sidewalk we occasionally hear passersby compliment the fence and lighting; it's a real showcase. And, of course, it's been a singular space for entertaining. We've hosted many wonderful gatherings and our friends and family simply love spending time there. So, thanks, Mark! We're very grateful for your amazing work and hope many others leverage your many skills to bring their dream spaces to life."

"I initially called to see if they could service my 70s era Ward door opener. Adam informed me it was not up to current code and that the whole thing would need to be replaced. Since the door was also in poor shape I decided this would be best. He gave me a written quote immediately that I thought was reasonable and after a bit of shopping around I scheduled the replacement. Work was done promptly and professionally and everything functions great!"

"Everything was just fine. They repointed a cinder block wall that had developed a crack due to a water leak which had been repaired, and fixed/sealed the chimney caps. We would hire them again."

"Working with Andrew was excellent in all respects.  Because he's the estimator, the fabricator and the installer, there's much less chance of miscommunication or misunderstanding than with the large shops that have different people do those functions.  Andrew understood exactly what we wanted and the result looks great.  He took great care in installing the handrail, with attention to detail. <br /> I highly recommend his work.  <br />"

"This is our second project with Le's Landscaping and Yard Work. It's a family owned business with an emphasis on customer satisfaction. We've had several other outdoor projects in the years we've lived here (covered deck, wood retaining walls and planting areas, fencing, cement walkways) - all with people we liked, all with mixed results. This time, the results have all been positive. Our first project with Le's was mostly extensive yard work. Mr. Le was frequently on site, but his crew was hardworking and experienced and we were pleased with the results. Our current project was a 160 ft. cedar fence with 3 gates, arbors, and enclosing an inner courtyard space. For this project, Mr. Le was always on site, either directing or more often doing the detailed construction work himself. The workmanship and materials he selected are excellent. The project also included building up a walkway that had begun subsiding into a stream area and planting a Japanese maple. Once they started the job, they didn't pull off to work on others. Mr. Le responded quickly to any question or concern we had during the process. We had a general idea of what we wanted, but his ideas and experience made the result much better than what we pictured. The workmanship on the fence and esp. the gates was wonderful. I rarely write reviews, but this has been an exemplary job that we'll enjoy for many years. It was also a lot of fun."

"Our gate mechanism is about 40 years old and well outdated. It stopped working, and Automated Gates managed to replace the controller while even keeping our remote controls working. Saved us a complete replacement. <br />"
