The whole process went great. Bill and Michael were very professional and removed my 23 year old fence and replaced it with a beautiful picture frame cedar fence. They cleaned everything up perfectly. The entire job only took five hours. My neighbor and I are very happy. The price was very fair. It is so nice now to look out into the backyard and see the beautiful new fence. It makes my whole backyard look great. I highly recommend C & J Fence Company. They are true experts.

They are not gifted with communication. But when they set out do do the fencing task, they are excellent.
Description of Work: Quick response, punctual, excellent assessment of need, very fair price then completely dropped off the radar. No more response since then. The company has since showed up on the scheduled date and completed the work.

Although I had to wait for a quote, and again to schedule the job, it was well worth the time.

Bill came out & looked at the job and gave me his proposal. It was 25% less than other bids I received. We accepted his proposal knowing that the work could not be performed till 8 weeks later. It was worth the wait. We had to reschedule the job and he accommodated us within the same week. He showed up on time with all the material and went to work right away. There were no issues with the job & they completed it in one day. They cleaned up the work area at the end of the day. We were very pleased with all aspects of the job and would definitely hire Bill again.
Description of Work: Removed 88' of existing iron fence that had chain link fencing attached to it, wooden fence posts, 27 feet of 2'x12' wood retainer and hauled away & disposed of materials. Installed 88' of 5ft tall, powder coated-iron fence material and posts. Installed 27 feet of 2'x12' pressure treated wood retainer. The cost of the job included removal, installation and all the materials.

I do not write many reviews because we use so many providers. However, Bill from C&J Fence really stands out. I did not use this company initially and had lots of other companies look at my gates. But However, most of the companies just wanted to replace all of my gates instead of repairing/altering them. Bill is very reasonably priced and does high quality work. The only drawback is that he is so popular that he is backed up for months. We need new fencing and some fence moved. I will not make the same mistake twice. I am going to wait a couple of months for Bill and his son to do it. Highly recommend!
Description of Work: The provider installed new dog run gates, barriers on all the gates so that the dog cannot escape, and fixed our front gate that was not properly aligned.

George from C and J with one assistant arrive on time, as scheduled and worked on the job until completed and in perfect working order. This alone is enough to get my A rating however George told me that he spend less time on the job and actually lowered his price. I addition he needed my key to rework the locks on the gates and actually cleaned my dirty key... amazing. This company is fantastic in my book. Do not hesitate to hire.
Description of Work: C and J fix 4 wrought iron gates that were not properly working. This included aligning the gates, fixing the automatic closures, fixing the locks and painting the gates.

Their bid was 25-30% lower than the other two I received. The workmanship is excellent, both in the construction and in the installation. They responded very professionally to my needs and suggestions. Because it's a small business--only two men--and they do such good work, they're always in demand and the project took longer than it might have taken with another company; but we weren't in a hurry, we saved some money, and we got exactly what we wanted.
Description of Work: They designed, built, and installed a steel grate to make my veranda secure.

Due some to challenging landscape issues, I needed a custom build that didn't break the bank. Bill helped me find an innovative, cost-effective, and most importantly *high quality* solution that I couldn't he happier about. Fence looks great and I am confident it will last. I recently bought the house and am in the middle of juggling a handful of contractors and bids. It was very refreshing to get an estimate from C & J, then actually have Bill show up (with his son) and personally complete the job. I didn't have to worry about details being lost due to passing on work to a subcontracted crew. Just a great, trustworthy guy. I'd use C&J again, but it looks like it is going to be a long time before I need too.
Description of Work: Removed 160' of existing fence. Built custom fence to replace.

I've worked with C&J before. I was pleased with the first job, which is why I called them back. This job was much smaller than the first one, so we handled the details by phone. I marked the fence line with yellow tape, they came out one day when I was at work and did exactly what we discussed. The stealth fence - I never saw them put it up, but the fence was there when I got home. Not always easy to get in touch with, but worth the second or third phone call. Once you are on their radar, they help you find economical solutions, if that's what you want.
Description of Work: Installed 24 linear feet of 5 ft tall white privacy fence. C&J split the cost between 3 neighbors and billed us all separately.

I called to get an estimate of the job our HOA needed. It was scheduled for Monday morning at 8am. 8:30am rolled around, no show. I called Bill and he told me that the schedule changed. It would have been nice if he had called! We rescheduled for another Monday. Bill came by, and looked over everything. It's been 2 weeks since then. I've asked over and over for a quote but no response. I don't think Bill wants our business. Oh well.

Bill came out to give me a bid which seemed fair and much better than Home Depot for example. He does the work himself with his son. I called him after receiving the bids to schedule and he kept the dates quoted. He is very knowledgeble about fencing and I feel did a great job. I would not hesitate to use him again or refer him to other people. He works very fast and did our job in about 2 different half days, setting all the poles the first day and coming back the next morning to complete the work. I was very pleased.
Description of Work: Installed vinyl chain link fence in the back yard on a slope on a canyon edge along with two access gates.

Bill and his coworker are so friendly, it was a pleasure doing business with them. Bill came to our home to see and measure our existing exterior railing, he had an estimate a week later (he had my phone number wrong, so I called him after a week went by. He apologized and gave me his estimate over the phone). Once we decided to go with their company, they came to the house, built a frame on the sight, took it back to their shop and finished it. They had it powder coated (included in the cost). They then brought it back to our home for installation, which took about 4 hours. While they were at our home they repaired a few rusted out areas of our existing railing and didn't charge us. It took about a month from the point of them building the frame to installation.
Description of Work: Matched existing exterior iron railing for a staircase and landing, galvanized, and had it powder coated.

Bill came out and gave me an estimate, which turned out to be correct to the dollar. While I was away on a business trip, he uprooted a rotting split-rail fence, poured new concrete footings and erected a double lodgepole fence around my corner property. The new fence is sturdy, straight and level. I examined the fence carefully when I returned, and it is indeed top-notch work. Previous estimates from other San Diego fence contractors (you'd recognize their names) were four and five times Bill's cost. I will not hesitate to contact C&J fencing for all of my future fencing needs, and I endorse them fully.
Description of Work: Replaced rotting split-rail fencing around corner lot and replaced with approximately 138 linear feet of double lodgepole.

Bill has put in a driveway gate and a ranch-style white vinyl fence. We got three bids and he was the lowest and we have been completely satisfied with his work. We have many more fence and iron projects for Bill so we will be keeping his number on speed dial for awhile :).

We actually didn't have work performed by C&J, but they were very professional, prompt and thorough during the quote process.
Description of Work: While we ultimately didn't use this company, they were extremely responsive to my request for quote, showed up at the planned time, and provided us with an excellent quote for the work. We chose a different company that could assure us the work could be completed in one day. However, based on our expereince, I would not hesitate to use C&J if we need fence work in the future.
