Kodiak improvements inc. est. 1999 has an A+ BBB rating. we are your local source for quality home improvements & maintenance. Thank you for considering Kodiak Improvements Inc. for any and all home improvements and maintenance projects. Michael E. Durst President Kodiak Improvements Inc.
"We can't say enough about how delighted we were with not only the results of our total kitchen remodel, but the experience of working with Mike, Ryan and Jared. From our very first contact, they were reliable and responsive, answering all texts and calls promptly and keeping appointments punctually. They offered ideas but were also highly respectful and responsive to ideas we presented, always saying "We can make that happen!", even when we had some really out-there requests like cutting a whole section of cabinets out around our 100 year old laundry chute and installing a stained glass window! Ryan and Jared are superb carpenters; their work is beautiful and they pay careful attention to detail. Best of all they are both extremely polite and pleasant, which really matters when someone is in your home every day for several weeks. They had our kitchen completely demolished down to the plaster and back to being a functioning kitchen in just 4 weeks , including significant plumbing and electrical repairs and upgrades , as well as delays in shipping of a replacement for a damaged cabinet (not their fault!) and our new window. They have well-established relationships with a number of local subcontractors and vendors who are equally reliable and skilled, so the project moved along without any other delays. We would hire them without question to do other work on our home!"

"Overall the install was okay at best. The quality of materials was very poor even though we paid for cedar . They are way overpriced and don't stand by there products/work. I’ve attached photos of the posts visible on the outside of the concrete…. It’s safe to say we will not use them in the future, nor would we recommend their services. We went with SK because most of the fences in town were installed by your company and expected more based on their reputation but I think because we were are not in the richest area we didn't get the same kind of care/quality of work. When in reality what we got was a shoddy fence job with warped boards, bent fence posts, and a gate that was improperly installed - all by a crew that spent more time utilizing their smoke breaks & breaks than they did working on our fence. I’m generally not one to complain, even when I want to, but it is ridiculous that they would claim that our gate falling over was caused by storm damage when there was visible wood rot visible at the bottom of the broken posts and none of the rest of the fence has fallen over that is out in the open more. We do realize that it has been 4 years since installation, but there is no way that it should have rotted that fast and if it had been installed properly, it wouldn’t have at all. It is obvious that SK does not stand by their products/work. Ultimately, we decided to do the work ourselves, because $800 is just crazy for replacing two posts that was their fault they rotted when the materials cost us less than $100. The posts were obviously rotted, and while digging them up we learned the reason the posts failed was because they were partially installed outside of the concrete. This is deeply concerning and it makes me wonder how many of our other posts were installed incorrectly…. Hopefully you don't have this issue but we would strongly recommend someone else. We wouldn't even been writing this if they would have just stood by the work they did and fixed the mistake they made. Heck if the whole fence blew down and it was real wind damage I wouldn't even blame them for say sorry that is wind damage there is nothing we can do about it."

Barbed wire is a type of fencing made from steel wire with sharp edges or points spaced along the strands. It's designed to prevent unauthorized entry or contain livestock by acting as a physical deterrent. Barbed wire fences are often seen in agricultural settings or high-security areas because they're effective, durable, and require little maintenance.
You can expect to pay between $3 and $6 per linear foot for a barbed wire fence, including installation. The exact price depends on factors like material quality, number of strands, wire thickness, and labor costs. If you have a larger project, bulk purchasing and hiring a professional might offer cost savings.
The number of strands you need depends on the fence's purpose and the level of security you want. For a standard livestock fence, you might use three to five strands. For higher-security needs, you may require more strands to meet your needs. Consider your specific requirements and talk to your fence installation pro to determine the appropriate number.
Barbed wire fencing regulations vary by location. In many residential areas, the use of barbed wire is restricted or prohibited due to safety concerns. Before installing a barbed wire fence, work with your barbed wire fence installation pro to check local zoning laws and homeowner association rules to ensure compliance with regulations.
The lifespan of a barbed wire fence depends on the quality of materials and environmental conditions. Fences made with high-quality, galvanized wire and proper coatings can last between 20 and 30 years. Regular maintenance and inspections can extend the fence's longevity by addressing issues like rust or damaged strands promptly.
