Description of Work: It went well even though it was the end of the season. The cold weather came so fast they were lucky to finish before the snow started. We had some storm damage to the gate but the winter was so severe that the company was not doing repairs so we had to call to remind them to reschedule the repair.

Thank you so much for the business. You're right, the winter hit early and lasted forever! We typically are able to work year around, but unfortunately this winter we lost nearly two full months due to weather. We've never seen that in 82 years of being in business, and I hope we never see it again!! I apologize that there was a delay in tending to the repair for you. Believe me - we would have rather been working than sitting inside watching the snow fall and the temperatures drop! Thank you again for your business, and I'm so happy that you're pleased with our work.

Description of Work: The estimator, Mike, came out in late May. He was very nice and on time and knowledgeable. I knew when I contacted Elyria Fence they were one of the most expensive companies some was prepared to pay more for a better quality fence with some custom features. I was repairing and replacing storm damage from last fall which caused a huge portion of my fence to collapse. I was interested in replacing the entire fence with a board on board with a lattice topper. Elyria Fence was the 4th estimate I received. After meeting with multiple contractors and getting a wide range of quotes that varied by thousands of dollars I was frustrated. I compared the quality of the product to other contractors and liked what was proposed by Elyria Fence. The estimator even tried to quote a smaller number for a fence that was not so decorative. After considering everything, I decided to pay more and go with the board on board with lattice topper. The quote for this work was 3436.00. When I agreed to the work, I asked for next steps. I was told that a deposit of one third was required and that the work could not begin until late August. Despite the cost and delay I was prepared to move forward and end the nightmare of meeting with contractors and trying to figure out the best way to go. After I agreed, the salesman called and to,d me he made a mistake on the estimate and that the actual cost for what I wanted was 4655.00 a shocking 1219.00 more than the original written quote. I was told by the estimator that he made a mistake in the quote and he was sorry. I never received a good explanation for the mistake, but 1219.00 is a big error. The original quote was already the most expensive that I received. I am now back to square one having wasted several months trying to get to this work done. I joined Angie's List for help with these types of situations because as a single woman it is hard to feel that I am not being taken advantage of by contractors and wanted access to quality contractors. I can't explain how this happened but I am furious that I have wasted an entire summer looking at a rotting fence in my yard dealing with a nightmare of contractors who have different opinions, products, quality and pricing, I have renovated two homes and hired countless contractors over the years. Finding a reputable fencing contractor has been the most aggravating experience to date. I can't recommend this company because of the last minute switch in pricing. Very disappointing.

Thank you (deleted member name) for considering Elyria Fence for your fence replacement. I'm sorry that your experience with us was a negative one. When our estimator, Mike Piazza, figured your job in the computer he accidentally left off a certain portion of the fence. He had figured the area where the storm damage occurred, however, he accidentally forgot to include the area that was additional to the storm damage. It was a mistake. He was in no way trying to take advantage of you. There is not one person that works for our company that has not made a mistake, and I am certainly included in that statistic. His apology for the error was sincere, and his explanation that he gave you was quite accurate. It has nothing to do with you being a single woman trying to tend to repairs in and around your home. He simply just left the extra on the job off the quote unintentionally. If the job was a "sold" job with a signed contract and deposit - we of course would've honored the quoted price, and we would have had to "eat" the quotation error. It has certainly happened in our 81 years of being in business, and no doubt it will happen again at some point! Unfortunately in business - human being will occasionally make a mistake. Thankfully, it does not happen often, but it does happen. I'm sorry that we have been a source of your frustration this summer, and I again apologize for Mike's mistake on the quotation to you. Thank you again for considering Elyria Fence for your fencing needs, and I hope that you will consider us again in the future. Best of luck with your fence repair.
