The Fence Guy

Keith was very professional and built us a fantastic fence. It looks great and keeps the dog in the yard, which was the objective. The crew did a great job clearing brush and installed the fence in less than ideal weather. Furthermore, when the weather changed and a post shifted causing the gate latch to stop working properly, Keith came out within a day of my call and fixed the problem with the latch.

I met the owner of the company at my property to get an estimate for repairing/replacing several sections of chain link fence. He told me about his experience and how this job would be easy to knock out due to it's size and cheap because he had lots of the materials needed left over from other jobs. He said he would be back the next week. He has not called or showed for nearly a month now. This is even after having an employee of mine contacted him that we had potential work for him at another property - which he never showed up for either. Still no call no show- and had the nerve to tell my employee that he could not reach me. I had received no phone calls. i left him a final voice mail asking that he confirm that he was not going to do the work. He did not return the call. This guy is just not reliable.

Everything went well from start to finish! I hope to call next summer to replace the fence in my back yard too.

I do not give glowing reviews often or lightly however; I cannot begin to say enough wonderful things about Keith and his crew. He was honest and up front with me from everything about timeline to his thoughts on each type of fence. He could have up sold me and taken advantage of me but he didn't. It shows a great deal of integrity. He was very communicative through the process and worked very hard to get the work done even though we had some tough weather days. His crew was polite and kind. I chose to hire him because I wanted a hand made not pre-fab large company fence. I wanted a small business owner who took pride in his work, was communicative, and fair. Keith went above and beyond to ensure this; not because I told him to but because it is who he is. The fence is great and looks just terrific! Thank you Keith! Without hesitation I recommend him.

Regardless of the excellent reviews of The Fence Guy on Angies List, I will not hire K. Pickens, The Fence Guy, to work for me due to being a "no call / no show".

The Fence guy was very efficient and responded to my calls very quickly. He came out the next day and was able to fix the issue on the spot. He was very quick, and very thorough. Checking all aspects of the fence to make sure that everything checked out.

Keith was very responsive and easy to talk to. He came out to my property on several occasions to map out the design and tell me more about what I would be getting. His crew showed up on a Friday afternoon and the fence was complete by sundown. The next day his crew came back because he had forgot to make a cut one one of the gates near the bottom, i didn't even notice and wouldn't have but they still came back out and made the necessary changes. The fence looks great and is level across the board. I would recommend Keith for all your fencing needs. Now I can finally let my dogs out with out worrying about them wandering off into the neighborhood.

We wanted a cedar fence and a little sectioned-off area for compost. The end result is awesome! A great crew of workers and reasonable price. Highly recommended.

They did a great job and the price was reasonable. My only complaint was how long it took from the time of the estimate to the time of the completed job. Keith explained that they are a family/small business and this is obviously their busy season, which is fine. I think the problem was a misunderstanding on my expectations vs their schedule...again, fine, but I would have preferred better communication. However, once I expressed my disappointment, Keith did get on the ball and had the fence up the following week. The bottom line for me, however, is that they did a really nice job and the crew was very friendly and hardworking...and I would definitely use them again.

Keith was supposed to come by my house on 06/25/14 and provide me an estimate. I spoke to Keith on Monday the 23d. He seemed real nice and knew what they were doing. I explained to him that I needed a part of my chain link fence and new gate. He got my address and told me he would come by on Wednesday the latest. When I didn't hear from him, I called the next day and the call was forwarded to voicemail so I left a detailed message that they were supposed to come by on Wednesday and if they ever made it. No return call or nothing. I know this kind of work can be busy this time of the year but at least have the courtesy to call back so I don't waste my time with you.

Keith is a great guy and I was glad to work with a family run business. Working with them you get honest people who stand by their work. I called Keith out after a storm destroyed my back fence and since I was getting work done i figured i'd have the front fence that i hated replaced as well. He gave me an estimate for both (cheaper than all the others i received) and helped me secure the old fence that was badly damaged (and poorly installed by the previous home owner) so that I could get through from then until we could get it scheduled without having a fence down the whole time. It was a wooded area that doesn't drain well so we postponed the project a couple times to let the area thoroughly dry out so it wouldn't be a disaster when they tore out and put in the new fence. The fence looks great and was done to such a high quality! They don't skimp on making sure posts are dug deep and done properly, they cement them and make sure it's a sturdy long lasting fence. They adapted to terrain that was far far from level and it looks great. With the front fence they put in extra wide gates for me and made me a removable section of the fence in case i ever wanted to get large equipment in the back yard. Keith says it in his description but it's important to note. This is a family run company that is smaller and the people doing the work are the same people who are taking the calls, scheduling the appointments and doing the estimates. It's not a big corporate company with people for all those things so if you're expecting every time you call the second you call to talk to someone that wont be the case, but he'll always get back to you. If you have patience and want to work with a company that is going to do extremely high quality work and at the best price then this is who you want.

The overall experience with The Fence Guy was good. Keith came out and gave us a very reasonable quote for our unique horizontal fence design on the spot. We had three other estimates done, and his was the best by far. We did have a glitch during construction with the fencing material, but it was rectified without question. His crew was extremely hard working and efficient. They really payed close attention to detail and craftsmanship in their work. We are beyond pleased with our new fence. I wish I could post pictures to demonstrate how great it looks! Thanks again!

They were on time with quote, and went out of their way to get the permits. The workmen built the fence during the coldest days of winter and did a professional job. It looks great and the neighbors even like it.

Because we decided to get the fence in November, there was quite a bit of delay in getting the fence installed (due to weather, not Keith's fault). He was very responsive to phone calls and text messages, and keeping us up to date with the time frame. Once the weather cleared up, the fence was up within a matter of days. It looks great!! Best looking fence on the block, for sure. About a month later, he came back to install the gate (at no charge). We are very pleased with his service and would highly recommend Keith!

Overall, my experience with The Fence Guy was excellent. When I initially called, Keith came out the same day and quoted me a very reasonable price for a 6ft wood privacy fence. The price was not only reasonable, but I found that many other fence companies wouldn't even come look because the job was on the small side. The fence looks great and I've even had some compliments on it from my neighbors. It did take a bit longer to get installed than initially quoted; however, this was due to a variety to extenuating circumstances that could not be foreseen. With that being said, Keith remained in contact with me throughout and made sure I was kept up to date with the status of my job. The only minor issue I had was that there were a lot of nails left in my yard after they finished installing. The nails were the same color as the mulch, so they did blend it, but I had to spend some time searching so that my dog wouldn't get any of them. I am very pleased with Keith and the four crew members I met during this process. Thanks, Keith!

The fence is beautiful. It was done as quickly as it could have been due to the weather and other things outside of his control. I am having a secondary partition done by him.

It went great!! We absolutely recommend the Fence Guy to others and we would use him again in the future.

They were wonderful. They gave us an estimate of time when they would be here and they came at that time. They got it finished in one day. I could not have asked for a more professional, nicer people. They cleaned up everything. I can't say enough about them. They were courteous. I liked how they dealt with us. Their work was fantastic quality. I would recommend them to others.

I called Keith to come out and give me an estimate, and the very next day he came out to look at my home. He was very professional and the pricing was good. I have decided not to install the fence right now because I may be selling my home, but if I decide to stay in my home or buy another one, I will definitely use Keith for my fencing.

Keith was on time and offered advise on how the fence should be done and gave a very competitive quote. His crew had to come back several times to complete the job due to the bad weather we have had lately. The finished fence is better than we could have imagened. All materials were top quality and installed correctly. Keith is a very honest and upfront business owner that truly tries to please his customers. We have already recommended him to several of our neighbors.

Keith and his crew are exceptional. Keith responded to my phone call within a few hours. Came out the next day and gave me a quote and put me on the list. I had three other people give quotes and his was in line with all of them. The major difference was that Keith was so professional and punctual, kept me updated as to when he would be able to start and did not ask for any money until the project was completed. He kept me updated as to the status of the job. It took a little longer than expected due to the rain and the fact that my backyard is a mud pit so it took a few days to make sure that the posts were study. I appreciated this attention to detail very much. The crew was a great group of people, knew exactly what they were doing and were so easy to work with. Everything was cleaned up and the fence looks fantastic. Thanks so much to Keith and crew!!

Several promises were made by the owner to quote my job. I left text messages and phone calls which we're never returned. This experience is what I encountered from people on craigslist!

I contacted Keith Pickens, The Fence Guy on a Monday morning. By the end of that day, he had already been to my home, measured the fence and quoted me a price. Keith was in constant contact throughout the entire process. My fence was started last Monday, March 17th. The 2 workers (Skip & Tim) just finished up today. I could not be any happier with the finished product. The fence builders were extremely meticulous took extra time to make sure the fence was done to my satisfaction. It was obvious they took pride in their work. They had many issues with weather, tearing out the old fence, and putting in the new fence so that my 2 puppies could not get out. The Fence Guy exceeded all of my expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing any type of fence work.

We hired him after finding him on Angie's List. He had some good ideas when I was not exactly sure what I wanted and what style I had wanted. He gave me his professional opinion and he made a lot of sense. He was very efficient as well. He was able to complete the job in just a couple of hours. Everything turned out great!

Overall, it was ok. I was however told the owner was going to actually build the fence but 2 young guys were the ones sent to do the work. The main reason for building the fence was to keep my dog inside. We had several issues with the dog getting out due to the placement of the wire mesh. Keith was responsive & came out to try to fix the issues. However we still have some places my dog can get out through & have had to put tent stakes & rebar posts to hold the wire mesh tighter to prevent her from pushing under.
