Description of Work: Last year Artistic Fence installed a custom fence I was delighted with. At that time I noticed a board had a big knot in it and was in a position that would sustain alot of stress. I phoned the company and a builder came out and looked at it and said he thought it would withstand the stress and would not break but that he would replace it if I wanted. I told him if he was confident it wouldn't break, I'd keep the existing board and save resources and time for them. This summer, the board broke and the latch for the fence gate pulled out into my hand! I emailed the company and was told they would respond as soon as they could with a repair under warranty. I heard nothing for a week so contacted them again, stating that I needed this gate to work not only for myself but to keep the dog and daycare children in the yard. The fence is required for my daycare license. Still I got no response. After a couple of phone calls and more emails to them over a period of a couple of weeks, I told them that I had taken time to write a very flattering and well deserved review for them last summer on Angie's list and that I would if necessary, take the time to write another review telling of my bad experiences with them this summer if I did not hear from them within 24 hours. I got a response and someone came out within a week to repair the gate while I was not home. They replaced the broken board and fortified the gate latch, however, at knee height and in at the opening of the gate, where a child could get hurt, they left a nail protruding from the gate post by 2 inches. Unsightly and dangerous! And a small spike from the sharp end of a heavy staple used to secure the replacement board also protruded. I did not notice this until I grabbed it (it's right where one would grab to push the gate open or pull it closed) and got a very minor but annoying injury. The protruding nail and sharp protruding staple end, both in the high walking traffic area and right where people go in and out of the gate, seemed really weird to me. I sensed passive aggression:( So now I'm confused about this company and don't know if I'd use them again. I certainly would not hire them without talking with them about this summer's bad experiences first. I think I'd only hire them if I wanted something really custom that no one else would do (which was the case last summer). I'm hoping it was just the heat that got to them and that they don't behave in hostile ways toward customers who need to fall back on the warranty. This experience points up the value of Angie's List. Had I not written a positive review last year and been able to threaten to write an update this summer, this company may never have upheld their warranty. In that case I would have contact the BBB.

This customer called June 7th for the warranty issue and it was taken care of June 27th, this is a busy time of year for us and we try to get to the warranty issue as soon as we can despite our busy schedule.

Description of Work: Artistic Fence did a wonderful job for us. We researched the job and decided to take a competitive bid by a family owned company (the people you talk to are the one's actually doing the work, no subs). Contant communication, flexible scheduling, professional workmanship from initial consult to final clean up. Wonderful results, couldn't be happier with our new maintainance free fence. We would recommend Artistic Fence to anyone. You get what you pay for, and they came through with flying colors

JOE HAD INITIALLY SWITCHED THE LOCATION OF THE TWO STYLES, WHICH WAS A SURPRISE TO ME TO FIND, BUT WE WORKED OUT A SOLUTION THAT WAS SATISFACTORY WITHOUT HAVING TO DO EVERYTHING OVER AGAIN. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE WORKPLAN HAD BEEN MORE SPECIFIC ABOUT THE STYLES. I REALLY LIKE THE WAY IT TURNED OUT, THE SUGGESTIONS JOE MADE WERE EXCELLENT, AND THE WORK IS VERY GOOD QUALITY. MY NEARBY NEIGHBORS HAD COMPLIMENTS ABOUT IT RIGHT AWAY.
Description of Work: THREE SHORT (<30 FT) SECTIONS OF FENCE WERE INSTALLED, EACH WITH A GATE. AN OLD CHAIN LINK FENCE WAS REMOVED FROM ONE AREA. THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT STYLES USED.

WHAT A DREAM THESE GUYS ARE TO WORK WITH. WOW! I HAD MARK COME OUT AND GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE FOR REINSTALLING PART A FENCE THAT WAS TAKEN DOWN DURING CONSTRUCTION. BOTH GATES OF MY FENCE WERE DRAGGING ON THE GROUND BEFORE THE FENCE WAS TAKEN DOWN. I HAD SOME OTHER REPAIR NEEDS AS WELL. HE UNDERSTOOD RIGHT AWAY WHAT I WANTED. AND THAT I WANTED THE FENCE SECTIONS HUNG JUST AS THEY WERE, I DIDN'T WANT THEM CHOPPED INTO SMALLER SECTIONS OR ANYTHING. WHEN I CALLED TO SCHEDULE THEM (AFTER A BIG RAINSTORM), I WAS TOLD THERE MIGHT BE A LONG WAIT. MARY TOLD ME THAT PLACES LIKE DAY CARE CENTERS WOULD HAVE HIGHER PRIORITY. I COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD. I TOLD THEM I HOPED TO GET MY FENCE BACK UP BY WINTER. I MAILED MY DOWN PAYMENT CHECK ON A MONDAY AND BY THAT FRIDAY THEY WERE AT MY HOUSE INSTALLING MY FENCE. AND I WAS A LOW PRIORITY! I WAS SO IMPRESSED! THEY FIXED BOTH GATES THAT DRAGGED ON THE GROUND AND THE OTHER REPAIR ISSUES.
Description of Work: THEY REINSTALLED SOME FENCE SECTIONS I HAD TAKEN DOWN FOR CONSTRUCTION. THEY ALSO HAD TO RESIZE SOME OF THE FENCE SECTIONS, REATTACHED THE HINGE TO A ONE DOOR GATE AND MADE A BRACE FOR A TWO DOOR GATE.

VERY IMPRESSED BY EVERYONE AT ARTISTIC FENCE. COURTEOUS, PROFESSIONAL, HIGH QUALITY WORK. BID WAS $800 TO $1000 LESS THAN THE OTHER TWO COMPANIES THAT SUBMITTED A BID. DUG OUT ALL THE POSTS FROM CHAIN LINK FENCE. THE OTHER COMPANIES WERE GOING TO CUT THEM OFF AND SMASH THEM DOWN WITH A SLEDGE HAMMER. OVER ALL GREAT JOB!

THEY CLEANED UP VERY NICELY AFTER THEMSELVES. THEY ALSO REPAIRED THE LATCH ON OUR GATE AND THAT WAS NOT EVEN PART OF THE ORIGINAL BID. WE WERE EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE WORK THEY DID FOR US.

I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND WORKING WITH THESE FOLKS. WE OBTAINED BIDS FROM TWO COMPANIES AND GOING WITH ARTISTIC FENCE WAS A NO-BRAINER. SURE, THE SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER BID WAS ATTRACTIVE, BUT CRAFTSMANSHIP WAS NOT SACRIFICED IN THE PROCESS AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS GREAT--WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR. SECRETARIES WERE PLEASANT TO WORK WITH OVER THE PHONE AND PROVIDED IN A CLEAR, CONCISE FASHION THE INFORMATION I NEEDED. JOE GORNICK, WHO PROVIDED THE FREE ON-SITE CONSULTATION AND SUPERVISED THE INSTALLATION, WAS LIKEWISE A REAL JOY TO WORK WITH. EVERYTHING WAS DONE IN A TIMELY FASHION AND THERE WERE NO HASSLES OF ANY SORT. THANKS FOR A JOB WELL DONE, JOE.
Description of Work: ARTISTIC FENCE INSTALLED 100 FEET OF SECONDARY GROWTH WESTERN RED CEDAR PICKET FENCE, INCLUDING TWO GATES, ON A PROPERTY WE HAD PURCHASED THE END OF NOVEMBER 2004. STAINLESS STEEL NAILS WERE USED. PROMPT INSTALLATION WAS OF THE ESSENCE AS THE END OF THE WORK SEASON WAS RAPIDLY APPROACHING. THEY MANAGED TO GET IT COMPLETED JUST AS CONSISTENT FREEZING TEMPERATURES SETTLED IN THE FIRST WEEK IN DECEMBER. LOOKS GREAT!
