"The company knew that I was going to pay them, yes I was approved by a finance company. I told the company that I had enough money to pay them directly. I got an alert from GreenSky that the company charge them. When I paid them by checks, I am seeking a lawyer and I'm going to sue them. Had to call Midtown and told them that their workers had put defective materials on my deck. Midtown was paid by GreenSky before the work was completed. Also, you can notice that there are ridges on the wood, as if a saw was used to put ridges in the wood."

"We have used Paramount in the past and were pleased with the service. Not this time. I called to have someone come out to give an estimate of reseating two posts that had heaved over the winter affecting a gate. At the same time I requested an estimate to replace a lower rail that had been broken by workmen in our neighbor's yard. I asked that the estimate for the rail to be separated so I could show it to the neighbors for payment. The separate price for the broken rail was $550 because they would have to remove and reset two posts. My neighbor thought that was excessive and I should have believed him. When the workmen came they reset the two gate posts without any issue. Then they replaced the rail without having to do any post resetting. When I called they offered me a $75 refund. So replacing the rail cost me $475. The total job was a little over $1400 which I had to pay in advance. I will never use Paramount again."

NB Dustless Blasting, LLC. is the fastest, most cost effective and environmentally friendly surface preparation there is. NB Dustless Blasting can do everything that a sandblaster can do, but better. The uses for the Dustless Blaster are too vast to list, but suffice it to say that this machine can remove virtually any type of coating from any material. How does it work? The Dustless Blaster mixes abrasive and water inside the blast tank. Imagine throwing a handful of wet sand VS a handful of dry sand. The dry sand wouldn’t have much impact on the target, but it would blow in the wind and make a big mess. The same amount of wet sand would hit the target with more force, and wouldn’t blow in the wind. The water adds more mass and energy to the blast, while preventing dust.

A wood fence costs an average of $2,700 upfront while an aluminum fence costs about $4,610, making wood the less expensive option initially. That said, wood fencing demands regular upkeep to safeguard against bending, warping, rot, and pest damage, which increases long-term expenses significantly. Aluminum holds up with minimal upkeep, so it often balances out—or even beats—wood over the years.
The required fencing is determined by measuring your property’s perimeter and accounting for any obstructions or openings such as decks, driveways, and gates. Measure the overall border length and then subtract areas that do not require fencing. While you can map it out with a tape measure and some graph paper, a fencing pro can take precise measurements and confirm you’re ordering the right amount of material before installation begins.
Most metal fences last 20 to 50 years. The exact life span depends on the metal’s quality, how well the fence is installed, and how often you maintain it. Opting for premium materials and a skilled installer helps the fence shrug off weather and stay sturdy with only basic upkeep.
Electric fence repairs average about $200, but you could spend anywhere from $100 to $400. Your final bill hinges on how much damage there is, how complex the fence design is, and local labor rates. Most repairs cover both materials and labor to get the fence working—and safe—again.
