My new fence is beautiful. He explained the process, why the use the tools they use, and even did some extra things because of all the vegetation around the fence. All installers were very friendly, personable, and down right fun to work with. The weather here didn't cooperate of course (kansas), but they worked through rain and cold cold weather to get the job done. They were prompt on all replies, questions, and completing the work. I definitely recommend hiring them and will be using them again.

This contractor lacks customer service skills. Got charged for stuff that was not brought to the site. Got charged for a dumpster fee and there was never a dumpster. He went to my bank and had my bank call me when I was down with a medical problem. Not once, but 2 times. He claimed that he always orders more wood so he can go thru it at the work site, but he took all of the extra wood back and got the money back for that also. He also wanted me to call the insurance company, after the quote was already paid, and said that I needed to ask for more money. I called the insurance company and told them what was going on and they agreed that he has been paid enough for the job. Plus he pretty much calls his clients a liar if he has you do something in the beginning, like waiting for the insurance claim check to clear the bank, and wanted me to write a personal check. If you do hire this person, I would be very cautious and make sure that everything that is on your quote is actually brought out to the work site. Then there was the matter of where he came up to the door and asked if he could go 5 foot longer because he ran into a problem with the ground not being even. And if you have any balance left, like I did, which was $300.00, he tried to threaten me and said that if I didn't pay it ASAP that he was going to come and take down the fence. When he came back to get the remaining money, my husband went outside and took care of it. Mike brought his wife and said that he was recording the conversation, which was illegal, cause you have to ask for permission first to record ANY type of conversation before it happens. But if I was you, I would find someone else to do the work that you are needing done, because this one is not very honest. And his help kept going over and playing with the neighbors dog. Also we kept the old fence for something else, and he said that the insurance company said that I was doing fraud. So I called the insurance company and spoke to the adjuster and he said that it was the first time that he had heard of this. Mike will tell you something to try to scare you, but it didn't work out for him that time. Mike even called the insurance company asking for more money. That is when the insurance company called me and I told him about the dumpster, and how he was talking the trash to a friend's dumpster, because his friend is in the same business, so yeah, he got paid very well for the fence. He got what was on his quote, and that was all he was going to get. The cross around his neck didn't fool me. But he does need to talk with the Big Guy in the sky and explain it to Him as to what he said and did. But as to the fence, yes it does look nice and he did a good job. One thing, don't use pictures of someone else's job cause it is not the same as what you get. Close, but not the same. Plus I did not give permission for him to put my phone number on here. He does stuff on his own.

Response from Cocking Renovations
Wow! Ok, well I can say there is definitely two sides to every story Lol. You missed the part where I used my own money to buy all your materials because your insurance check wouldn’t clear in time to get it ordered and delivered before the zero degree weather was gonna hit that next week and I wanted to help you get a fence up as soon as possible because you were worried your dog would get stolen. Did that out of the kindness of my heart. That was after I spent 3 hours of my day driving back and forth to your house and the bank just dealing with the insurance check and trying to get your funds handled. You complain about me returning product and keeping the money. In your job bid I only charged the insurance company for 225 pickets. I ordered a pallet full which is 295 pickets and have it delivered so I can weed through the good and bad boards at the job site instead of spending 2 hours at the supply store doing it. I buy those extra pickets with my own personal money. I explained that to you twice. So at the end of the job I take the extra boards back to get my money back. Not the insurance! Which I didn’t get as much back because I gave you an extra 5 feet of fence at no extra cost. On the bid I gave you it stated a dumpster rental and dump fees. Doesn’t mean a dumpster comes to the job site to get left. I’ve done that in the past and customers think it’[Member Name Removed] ok to throw extra things in it. The dump charges per pound so I haul the stuff off to a dumpster and then get it dumped. You may have kept the old wood but instead of 8” concrete pieces in the ground you had 16” boulders under the ground that we didn’t know about till we started digging that day. Took us a lot longer and spent way more hours getting the concrete out of the ground then we anticipated. So I explained you could ask the insurance company for an adjustment for my money but I decided not to even worry about it. I will apologize though for my crew being too friendly and petting the neighbor dog. We have just learned it’[Member Name Removed] easier to befriend the neighbor dogs then listening to them bark at us for hours while we are out there working. And yes, I went to your bank twice.. first time was to deposit your insurance check for you. The manager stated I could just come back to him and he could call you to release the funds to me so I didn’t have to waste anymore time driving from your house to the bank all the time. Because you do have back pain and acted like you couldn’t leave the house. Was trying to help you again. When I came to the house the last time to collect the money you spent from the insurance money and couldn’t pay me in full I did have my wife video record the transaction because with all your allegations I wanted to cover myself. I said to your boyfriend that he was being recorded. He didn’t deny us to do it. So it’[Member Name Removed] not illegal. And in my recording I have him praising our job and how he wanted us to do more work later on for your deck we also quoted. So don’t know where my personality is an issue. Also, because I wear a cross around my neck doesn’t mean I’m a perfect human being. No one is. But that cross and my belief is the reason I try to help people like you in your circumstances. My bid was $2,000 more then the other persons but you went with us because you liked my personality. You said I did a great looking fence. That’[Member Name Removed] what you hired me for so I’m glad you like it. I’m sorry for any confusion towards the end with the extra material or not having a “job site” dumpster. I wish you nothing but the best with your back surgery and hope you can enjoy that fence for years to come. Thank you for your business!! God Bless

Mike was very professional and communicated well through the whole process. He was timely and did an amazing job at completing the job. I would recommend him to anyone needing a deck/porch completed. He had great craftsman ship on the job.

Mike & his son were very professional and courteous. Mike listed and answered all of my questions. I felt very comfortable having them work on my home. They have an eye for detail and it shows in their work. I will definitely use them again.

It was amazing! Great communication during the planning of the job, during demolition and removal of the old fence, and during the install day. Finished on time and under budget. Plus, they helped us build a gate with extra materials that we had planned to do ourselves. It all turned out better than we could ever imagine. The fence and gate we more than we could have expected and we are grateful. The materials and method were selected based on quality and long lasting, innovative methods. We highly recommend using this company, including already recommending them to our family and friends. We especially loved that it is a local, family owned operation. Thank you, Mike!
