"he quality of the material was a concern from the beginning I have pictures of the pickets and communication between myself and the business owner. He did replace over 200 pickets and I have video and pictures of the damaged wood that he stated was common . Once the pickets were replaced there was still issues with the fabrication parts that I also have pictures of he assured me he would repair and did so until the last part which is the functionality of the two front gates opening and closing also a handle that is on the wrong gate that Mr. Hale admitted via text was on the wrong gate . Through my experience I have been cordial and tolerant of the missteps and having to point out flaws in the craftsmanship and Me. Hale to a point was able to repair what needed to be replaced. However at the eve his communication was rude and to the point of blaming myself for the repairs made that he has never experienced in over 15 years of fencing . Needless to say he stopped communicating with me and will not answer my calls or texts when he reassured me he would replace the handle and repair what needs to be done ."

We’re third-generation window replacement experts who have been lucky to provide homeowners replacement windows, siding, and doors for over fifteen years. We opened our first showroom in Maryland in 2006, quickly growing to serve homeowners in cities across the country – and we’re not stopping there. We’re grateful for every homeowner who has trusted us to upgrade their most important asset: their home. We’ve learned a lot about home improvement over the years, but the most important thing we learned isn’t about window replacement. We learned the home improvement industry isn’t about offering the best windows, siding and doors; it’s about the relationships we build with our customers.

A pro can set an attic ladder in two to four hours, including framing adjustments and finish work. Complex installs—like cutting a brand-new opening or trimming joists—land toward the high end of that window. Tackle the job yourself and plan on a full day, plus an extra pair of hands, since one mis-measurement can slow everything down.
Local building codes drive this decision. If your ceiling has a fire-rating requirement, the ladder must match it to maintain that protective barrier. A rated unit slows flame spread between the attic and living space, buying valuable evacuation time and limiting damage.
Because codes vary by city and even by neighborhood, check with the permitting office or ask your contractor before you order the ladder.
Aluminum ladders are light, rust-proof, and easy to maneuver, making them a practical choice for most households. Wood models handle higher weight loads and can match traditional trim if aesthetics top your list, but they’re heavier and need occasional upkeep.
Compare the ladder’s duty rating, your ceiling height, and how often you’ll use it. The best option is the one that balances safety, convenience, and the look you want without stretching the budget.
