Description of Work: Replaced the fence around my backyard with much more attractive, sturdier fence. Removed the old fence materials completely. They did a nice, careful job, avoiding my plants.

Description of Work: The only down side is how much time it takes between making an appointment and getting a fence installed. If you want a fence, get estimates in early spring to avoid a 2 to 3 month wait for the installation.

Description of Work: Replaced 85 feet of cedar fence. I asked about replacing some additional fence that was about 15 yrs old and they were honest and said it wasn't necessary. They were very professional, timely and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them and I will use them again. We received many complements from our neighbors.

Description of Work: I called for a quote, they never returned my call. When I called again two weeks later, their quote was high (I thought). I said no thank you, but two weeks later, someone stopped by our house, took measurements and left a note to give them a call. I haven't called them and don't think I will.

Response from Reliable The Fence People
This member's report is not factual. While it is true that we recently quoted him for a special build-on-site custom panel that he requested, the price was only around $600 which included a minimum labor charge of 3 hours (which is company policy) -- not $2,000 per his note. Also, there was no charge to fix his gate, even though he states there was. Both points were politely explained to him on the phone when he called -- he didn't like the answer so he berated the estimator and office manager, and then hung up on us.

Description of Work: Contacted Reliable in October 2012 for a quote on over 200' of fence. They were quick & friendly to respond and complete the job quote. I was very happy with them up to this point. We decided to wait until the spring to do job, given the unexpected cost (over $7000). Called back April 2013, they did not have our quote on file (despite marketing mail I received just a few weeks before about "locking in last years pricing"). Could not get through to a human despite multiple calls. Left a message for a call back, never got a call back. Moved on!!!

See above. These guys rock.
Description of Work: These guys are the best. I had a pretty large area installed around my yard and pool. They did such an amazing job. Del has an artistic approach to building fences. It looks like it was always here and blends in with the yard so beautifully. I get a lot of compliments on the fence and the way it fits so well to the property. Awesome work. If you are considering a fence, give these guys a call. You may have to wait a bit to get scheduled, but so worth it. I'm having them back next year to do the front yard!

Great from start to finish.
Description of Work: Installed vinyl fence in my backyard with two gates. Weather was a key factor here as WINTER was fast approaching. They had given me an approximate install date about two weeks out, but when they saw the weather was going to turn very cold quickly, they came sooner than the original proposed date. But a fence is about longevity...so I can't really comment on that. Look me up in ten years. However, I've had two incidences where some posts loosened up. I called them to inform them about the situation. In both instances they came out and did a fine repair job. This is about a company that has integrity.
