Dave contacted me right away and we are scheduled to meet on 4/7. He had previously installed a fenced enclosure for me and I was very happy with his work. This will be a larger project.

True professionals! Had to wait a couple months but so worth it! Took care of everything including contacting utilities etc. Carey was our installer and a great guy! Very personable and knows his craft like no other. Owners are awesome, providing a great quote and letting me know in advance the wait was 2-3 months due to peak season and the rainy weather.
Description of Work: Had approximately 1/2 acre fenced in using a combination of black chain link and vinyl privacy fencing at our home.

I can't say enough great things about this company. Not only was my fence installed quickly and professionally, but at a fair price. A few years after I had the fence installed the gate lock needed adjusted. Sent a message through Angie's list and received a phone call about 10 minutes later. Gentleman said he would be out later the same day around 4p to look at the gate. On my home from work around 345p he called and said it was adjusted. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to install a fence.

Unable to contact. I didn't try phoning since this was enough for me.
Description of Work: Left message on Angies List, on their web site, and sent emails to all email addresses provided. Email failure messages were received from the web site and one email address. Never heard back from any of these attempts to contact. I can't comment on Quality of Work, but Angies List requires that all these check boxes be completed. Also, Address Where Work Was Performed is not applicable, but Angies List requires this.

All aspects of the fence consultation and installation could not have gone more smoothly. All appointments were on time and the schedule of installation was right on. We have never had a fence before so we had a lot of questions and Dan was more than willing to answer them and even gave us some pointers that we didn't even think about. When the installation was scheduled it was right on time also. Kerry, the installer was a joy to work with. Since he is really a dog lover, when he found out our fence was for our dog, he devoted every effort to see that the fence would be safe for our Snoopy. He answered every question we had and offered advise on the best way to break in the new freedom for our dog. We have already recommended this company to two of our neighbors. We have had several compliments from our nearest neighbors and also others who have walked by. If we ever needed any other fencing needs, we would never think of going anywhere else.

Our new fence looks wonderful. So why the "B" for an overall grade? I am still finding pieces of fence wire and other installation materials all over my yard, over a month later. The holes from our old fence weren't filled back in, which left some very huge and deep holes in areas where the kids run and play. The crew also left behind much of their lunch packaging for me to pick up. The initial estimate was right on target with others and we chose this company because of the great reviews. And the fence is fantastic. I just wish they showed that same attention to detail to the clean up at the end.

Everything went great. I staked out approximately what I wanted and Fence by Maintenance made it happen. After a year, I have no issues with the fence with the exception of adjusting one of the latches on one gate. It still looks great and it keeps my dogs in and deer out. Even with a puppy, I've had no escapes.

Never got the estimate. I called several times and person said they would relay my message to guy who came out but nothing ever happened. My parents recently had you out to house & you did same thing to them. I gave you a C instead of an F because you did my neighbors fence and it looks nice. But I refuse to give business to companies that can't handle returning calls and doing what they say they are going to do. If you are too busy then simply say on the phone you can't take on any new customers.
Description of Work: I too called you guys to get estimate. Nice guy showed, I had lot plan with new fence layout drawn on, we discussed project at length and was promised an estimate.

OUTSTANDING! Dan was easy to work with for the quote and some follow up questions on how the work would be done, responding quickly to any emails we sent. He was also sensitive to our concerns regarding the garden area within the fence, that whoever worked on the fence had to be careful around the plants. Kerry was very friendly and answered any questions we had. Even more, hedid all the work himself, He approached the job extremely well, planning carefully planning the line of the fence and post placement. This included setting the fence line to avoid a manhole cover on the property edge as well as ensuring the post spacing was evenly done for all sections. He took the fence down in long sections, so that he was able to re-enclose the backyard with the new fencing each day. This helped keep any hungry deer out while he did the work. And, of course, he was very careful around all the plants, as well as making sure any existing landscape (rock border) was replaced so well you couldn't even tell it had been moved. While the cost may seem high (we didn't get quotes anywhere else as they came highly recommended), it was well worth it.

This was the second time we have used FBMS. And both experiences have been great. We recently moved and wanted an area around the back patio enclosed for our dog. Dan came out to quote. We upgraded to a better, thicker material witt zero pressure from Dan to do so. They were scheduling about two months out, so there was plenty of time for the special order to come in before the install. The gentleman that did the install went above and beyond to insure the fence fit snugly against the brick of the house, even though he ran into obstacles along the way. The fence was worth every penny. Looks great in the snow and blends beautifully into the landscaping. We have been very pleased twice now and would highly recommend. They are very responsive and attentive.
