Description of Work: Had my back yard fenced in with beautiful cedar fence. Dale was my sales representatve and I really appreciate his honesty in telling me that I needed to have grounds prepared and leveled prior to installing fence. I was going to do that anyway, but didn't realize the importance of having that part done first. He could have just sold me a fence, and then I'd have to deal with the problems that it caused later. They did a beautiful job, and I love the privacy and security that I now have. Ask for Dale if you contact Potomac. He was great...extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

Description of Work: They replaced my backyard fence. They were quick and efficient and left the place clean. I have received lots of positive compliments about the new fence including from another vendor. My only concern was that it was difficult to communicate with the gentlemen because of limited English skills.

The guy doing the work was unprofessional. I had to have the fence replaced a month or so after they put it in because the nails were not galvanized and they started to rust and "bled" all over the wood and it looked like huge black marker streaks down the wood. It was a terrible sight. When they replaced the fence - they used 1/2 cedar and 1/2 another type of wood. Well they weather differently and are different colors, so they had to replace certain pieces again. It was not a good experience. I would not recommend them.
Description of Work: I had them replace the my 6 foot stockade fence.

It took them 3 weeks to come out. I called them 3 weeks after giving them $120 deposit. Only then did they call to schedule an appointment to 2 workers arrived. They could not find a long enough screw to install new latch. The new latch was exactly the same at the last - so therefore was extremely easy to install. Probably about a 10 minute job. THEN - to my horror! - the 'SPRING' hinge is simply a spring crudely nailed to the outside of the gate. I imagined there was going to be a Spring hinge system, based on the amount being charged. I would NEVER USE THIS COMPANY.
Description of Work: I called this company to change the latch on an existing wooden gate. I also asked them to put some sort of spring hinge system to make the fence close automatically - (I have a dog and this is a safety issue)

We had a little difficulty with communication, but they took care of everything right away. Their prices are very reasonable and they even came back out when we noticed a small problem. I would recommend them to others in our area.

It was a great experience from start to finish. When I contacted the company, the representative I spoke with over the phone was very polite and helpful. They had plenty of appointments for an estimate and were willing to come on weekends (estimates were free). The representative who came to my house was on time, polite, helpful and very friendly. Their estimate was similar to what we expected for the work. They scheduled a start date three weeks from the estimate and called again to confirm the start date. They arrived on time, the foreman introduced himself to me and his crew. They completed the work in two days (we were told it would take two days) and completely cleaned up after they were done. Our new fence is BEAUTIFUL!
Description of Work: We had them rip out white vinyl picket fencing and chain link fencing and install western red cedar picket fencing around our back yard.

I asked five contractors to quote the job, 22 board feet of fence. I thought it would be a cheap job but this was the lowest bid; all the other bids were 300+ more than this one. I had a neighbor (a former construction worker) look over the specifications and declared them all to be equal. After trading phone messages with their scheduling office, we settled on a time. The crew came promptly, knocked out my little job in three hours, cleaned up and went on their way. Good stuff.
Description of Work: We had Potomac Fence build a length of 6 ft. high Wyngate ("good neighbor") fence with a gate between the house and the neighbors' fence, on each side of the home. Western red cedar with 4 in. pressure treated pine posts. This was a small job; 13 ft. on one side and 9 ft. on the other.

They did a fine job. They started on the day they said they would and completed the fence on time. The contractor who provided the fence estimate was polite and patient.
Description of Work: They built a split rail fence to close in part of my yard. This required a lot of patience to determine the lot line and where the fence would fit through the numerous trees in my yard.

The estimator came three times at my behest. A tree lost branches and had to be removed before fencing could be installed. I appreciated the estimator's willingness to deal with my necessary changes. The men who put up my fence were very professional. I have a whole new yard.

The work was started and completed on time. The workers were very accommodating of the vine problem and we solved it satisfactorily. More fencing was needed because of this, and the company was quick to respond to this need. The workers were professional and cleaned up well after the completion of the job.
Description of Work: A portion of a stockade fence was relaced and old posts and fence sections in another area were removed and hauled away. The work was tricky because I asked that an old vine growing over portions of the fence be preserved.
