My name is Ray Jackson and I am the owner of Red Rooster Fence in Fort Worth, and I have 25 years of experience and expertise. I am your “Swiss Army knife” handyman. I consider fence construction and repair to be one of my specialties. Sometimes, people don’t give enough attention to how they build a fence, or the quality they build with. At Red Rooster Fence, we believe in giving just as much care to your fence as we would if we were working on the exterior of your home. For example, doing fence painting, to us, deserves as much care as painting your front door. Your fence says as much about your family as does your home. We bring to the table a great concern for you, your family, and your home, and this is what really sets us apart from the rest. We are not just another ‘fence contractor in Fort Worth’>. We are fast, conscientious and clean. Most fence contractors don’t give enough attention to the latter. It’s where good builders can fail. We strive to keep a clean work environment throughout the project. This is better for you, the homeowner. After, we thoroughly clean, and leave your property as if we were never there…except for the beautiful fence we leave behind. Affordable, fast and clean!

Only one job was completed. It took about 8 hours and cost me $400. The estimated time for completion of all 5 jobs was way off. 4 of the 5 jobs should have taken less than 30 minutes.
Description of Work: I had a list of five jobs. Estimated time was 6 - 8 hours @ $50 per hour, My stipulation was that I not spend more than $400,

Thanks for the feedback. We no longer give estimates of time needed to complete work. The fence repair that was completed did take much longer than expected. We took time to secure the metal to the existing fence as you requested. You stated that you were very disappointed with the original installer.

Three hours to do this list for two rental units? Work needed 1) got new carpet so a set of closet sliding doors need 1/2 cut off bottom and door track on floor installed. 2) same as #1 but only includes installing door track on floor. 3) 4 outdoor water faucets need washers replaced. 4) property is a duplex and I need the following on both sides. We replaced range hoods w ceiling vent fans. Fans must be secured to something in the attic and the hood fan venting to the outside must now be connected to the new vent fans. 5) removal of sliding invisible screen door from front door. I have venting, duct tape, connectors, for venting job, washers for faucets, doors that need trimming off and 2 sets of floor tracks. You will need trouble light or similar because attic does not have lighting. I am about to have surgery for torn rotator cuff and need to get this work done for my new renter ASAP or I would do it myself.

Nolan, the owner of Red Rooster Fence Repair, was running a little late on another job (but so was I), so he kept in good contact, and arrived within the hour. He quickly assessed what was needed per the gate, and made a quick run to the hardware store. The gate involved a lot more than slat repair, but Nolan didn't blink, he told me it might take a little longer than originally anticipated, but he still finished within the hour. Then, I supplied him with a section of 8-foot fence, which was a difficult task replacing because it was back-facing my yard, and the front faced on the neighbor's yard, over a 5-foot retaining wall. No problem, Nolan fixed it in about an hour, and he carted off the old fence. Nolan was honest and quick to solicit my input, and then quick to do the job. Well worth the money and time.
Description of Work: The provider fixed a wooden gate that had some serious structural problems, and replaced an 8-foot section of fence in my back yard.

Raymond arrived on time and was ready to begin work. We spent a few minutes discussing what was to be done. He ran into a little snag when he tried to replace the brick molding (I believe that's what it was called) and he had to drive to several different places until he found it. He also took the old molding to Home Depot to match up the stain color. I found him to be somewhat perfectionistic in his work and I was very pleased with the outcome. The stain dried a little darker than the original, but it isn't a problem at all. I paid $100 for 3 hours (Angie's List Big Deal), but he was working for me for 5 hours counting the driving all over to find the molding, but he didn't complain and didn't charge any extra. I will use them again.
Description of Work: Repaired rotting wood at base of molding framing garage and re-stained it. Also, repaired base of 2 patio posts and re=stained them.

Overall went pretty well. The provider was courteous, effective and got the job done. The overall quality of the work was good. Price was very good. I have nothing negative to say about the provider at all. However, I have since found / used (based upon a reference from a friend) another similar provider who I just liked a bit more - so I will probably not use Red Rooster again.

The crew of two men and one apprentice arrived as scheduled. They worked through lunch in order to complete the job of repairing three gates and replacing three fence posts. The workmanship was excellent. The men were professional. They cleaned up the wood remains and trash upon completing the job. They suggested an excellent wood sealant to extend the life of the wood. I applied the sealant and the gates look great and work perfectly.
Description of Work: Repaired three gates. Replaced three posts.

Things went well for the three hours I paid the handy man. We also discussed some future fence repair once I save up some money. Raymond was the handy man that Ray the owner sent out to my home, he was a nice guy. He works hard and is trustworthy. I would contact this company again. It was a Saturday morning on Raymond's day off, so he was a little late, but no worries. It was also my day off.
Description of Work: Raymond came out to my home and replaced my kitchen faucet with the new one I purchased, I had to run to Home Depot and purchase two supply lines for him to connect, he made the broken wooden pole in my closet sturdy and reinforced it with his nail gun. He put on the new door handles/knobs for the front door and tightened the bottom wood board at the front door. The kitchen faucet took up most of his time, at first we couldn't get any water pressure and after was said and done, he suggested I contact a good friend of theirs to come check out my hot water heater. The cold water works just fine, but the hot water doesn't have any force, just a dribble.

He had to come back and redo one window of french door as it was sweating between the double panes. Still an issue. The trim on the door is OK The trim on the window wasn't redone, but patched. There was a spot where the paint had bubbled and I told him to repaint the frame. He scrapped off the bubble but I had to call him back to paint it. I wanted the whole frame painted, but he only 'patch' painted that one area. He is a nice man, but would take days/weeks to line up jobs. I had to re contact him several times when he failed to reply to requests to set up schedules. For awhile the only way I had of contacting him was through Angie's list, even after he did the first job. I gave him another chance for the door/window frames. The only reason he contacted me at the end, I feel, was because I forwarded him the Angies List feedback form and said if he didn't fix the problems I would give him an 'F'. He came within 24 hours. Being a woman of my word I will not give him an 'F'. But, would not use him again.

I purchased a deal for 3 hours of handyman service for $99. I needed help baby-proofing my house because my baby was quickly turning into a toddler and getting into everything. The handyman arrived on time and asked what I needed done (I hadn't specified in any of our correspondence). I showed him the gate, the "babyproofing kit" I'd purchased and an assortment of things I'd ordered from Amazon that said they would secure furniture to the wall. I was a little nervous because I didn't know if they would work with my furniture. The handyman looked at everything and said he was familiar with it all. He asked me what the highest priority tasks were and said he'd work in that order, which I appreciated! He told me he'd likely have to do some modifications to get the equipment to work with my stuff, especially the TVs since the straps were made for flat screens. He did a number of clever hacks that didn't damage my furniture or the walls. It was a great experience and I'll likely have them back for other handyman work I need done. I really appreciated his help.
Description of Work: Baby-proofed the nursery and living room: installed a swinging-door-style baby gate, secured two TVs, a bookcase and a dresser to the wall, and installed cabinet locks on several cabinets.

We had used them before and the owner was great. This time they sent out a handyman though and we had some issues with him. After speaking with the owner about the issues though, he came out himself and fixed everything.

Raymond said that you were pleased with the patchwork and you chose to paint it yourself instead of paying for additional time for additional work. My desire is that customers call us if there is an issue with any of our work before posting a negative comment. Unfortunately I was not made aware of your concerns.

Ray did a tremendous job. I had him build me a couple of wood shelves, fix a storm door handle, fix bedroom closet doors that came off their tracks, and repaired some door knobs around the house that I didn't install properly. I will definitely use them again. Couldn't believe how quickly he got those items done, which made my wife happy as well.

I didn't have anything too complex to do, but I am just too busy to do it. I had several failing towel racks and coat hooks that needed reinstalling and a grout line in the shower that needed replacing. I also had him caulk (prep) a paint grade cabinet for painting and he helped me take off and put on a new set of mattresses that I didn't think he would, but we had time. Raymond was friendly and efficient. I would not hesitate to have him back again and at $50.00/hour, which is their normal rate, still consider a great deal.
Description of Work: I hired this company via an Angie's List promotion...3 hours for $99.00. The Owner was very patient with me as I was not able to schedule right away. When I did call with a date, Ray said he would come do the work rather than send a worker so that he could accommodate my schedule. As time passed, someone must have cancelled, because Raymond his worker was able to come and earlier in the day than scheduled.

Good work on the gate, not so much on the others. They do not bring any materials to fix things and don't make trips to the hardware store, so the utility of the service is limited.
