He’s good and I plan on calling him back out to replace another section of my fence. He was expedient, he was clean with his work area, and he was on time so he finished when he said he was going to. I don't remember what I paid, but the quality of work was excellent.
Description of Work: Hernandez Fencing did a fence for me several years ago.

Jose suggested saving money by reusing the existing fence sections and just replacing the posts instead of rebuild the entire fence. Work was completed in one day with the old posts removed, holes excavated, new posts cemented in place and the fence reattached. Jose and his helper did a nice job of not disturbing a wire cable that ran down the length of the fence. The work site was cleaned and the excess soil distributed to other spots in the yard. He returned the next day to remove the supports and remove the remaining old fence posts.
Description of Work: Replaced six rotted wooden posts with metal posts and reattached the fence sections.

The price was good. After he was done the gate wasn't locking when it closed. I call him a few times to come fix it but he never got back to me. Eventually I got someone else to fix it. I was pleased with everything up until the gate problem.
Description of Work: He extended my fence and put a gate in the fence.

He is reasonably priced. He showed up on time. He completes the work. He cleans up after himself. He hauled away all of the old fence for me and everything.

I contacted Jose on Thursday. He came and looked at the damage and said he would get back to me Friday with an estimate. He did and was $200 less than my other estimate. We scheduled the work for Saturday. He came out Saturday and performed the work, re-enforcing the fence even better that it was before. He said he would come back Sunday and check that everything was OK and I was satisfied. He did and I paid him then. Excellent job and very friendly and professional.
Description of Work: Repaired 8 ft cedar fence that was damaged by the wind.

I called this company because he was on Angie's List and because his site indicated that he did repairs. I needed a gate in an existing fence repaired. I left a message at the number on Aug. 22 and he called me back that evening. We set up a time of 5:30 PM on Fri. Aug 24. I wrote it down. He did not come. I called him that same evening and he told me that I had it wrong, that it was to be Sat. evening at 5:30. I wouldn't have set that time as a rule, since I go to church from 5 to 6 every Sat., but I was willing to believe that there was a miscommunication and we reset it for 6:30 on Sat., Aug. 25. I missed an important event at the church because of the appointment with Hernandez, and then he did not show, or call. Apparently, he is one of these people that when he is good, he is very, very good, and when he is bad, he is horrid! Despite all the good recommendations on the site, I would never consider using him again and will steer people away from him. A big disappointment!

Hernandez never performed the contracted work.
Description of Work: Based on the Angie's List rating, we contacted Hernandez Fencing for an estimate. Mr Hernandez came on 3/28/2007 and provided us with an estimate. This was one of three estimates, we got from Angie's List "A" rated vendors. We decide to use Hernandez and accepted their estimate. Hernandez agreed to start the fence on 4/21/2007. When they did not show, I called and Hernandez said he had a problem and would start on 5/17/2007. When 5/17/2007 came and went, we called and left phone messages, more than five times. We have never had any type of response from Hernandez.

Jose came out for an estimate. We scheduled a time to start. He was very busy with insurance claims (fencing blew down from storms), but he fit me in on the weekends. He and his team came out Friday eves and worked until Sunday eve. They were helpful and respected our ideas on the fence. They finished in 3 weekends. Great timing. We have a very large yard, just the new side yard was a bit over 100 ft. I did pay half up front and half when they completed the job. They did a fantastic job.
Description of Work: We have very large yard, just the new part of the fence was a bit over 100 ft. and that was just a side yard. Took down old/existing fence. Put up new 8 ft. cedar fencing with steel posts where old fence existed and fenced in new side yard. I had 3 gates put in as well. They all worked very hard and quite fast. They were professional and trust worthy. Jose is a very nice man to deal with. Great fence!

Jose showed up on time to give us our estimate, and was professional and fair. We arranged for him to do the work that weekend. He worked quickly, tearing out our old fencing and putting up the new fencing in one day. However, upon inspection, there had been several corners cut in putting up the fence, a fact we noticed only after we had paid him and he left. The things that were not done right were: No cross bracing on the gate, cutting off the pole brackets instead of bending them around corners, not securing the pole brackets closest the house to anything, shorting the wood so that it did not reach the house, and using nails that were too long so that they protruded through the fence. We called Jose and he came back and fixed everything, though it took a few calls to actually make him come back. He fixed everything we were unhappy with, but, generally, things weren't done well the first time. We also had some screens go missing while he was working, and have no explanation for them.
Description of Work: Tear out and replace our old fence on the corner of our back yard with new board on board fencing and a new gate. approximately. 30 feet of fence was replaced.

Jose came to do the estimate exactly when he said he would be there. Jose walked the fenceline with me and I showed him what I wanted done. The price he gave was cheaper that other estimates I had received for the same work. I accepted his bid and within 10 days, he had started the job. Every other company I called either didn't call me back or had a month backlog of work to do before mine. His crew came exactly when they were scheduled to come and worked thru the weekend to complete the job. The work was done quickly and competently and to my satisfaction. All materials and workmanship seem to be very good and the job was completed as requested.
Description of Work: Hernandez fencing replaced approx 25 rotten cedar 4x4 posts with Galvanized metal poles and replaced several rotten vertical support boards as well. This is larger job then it seems because all of the old posts with the concrete still attached need to be dug out of the ground.

Very good. I am very pleased with the results. The new fence is gorgeous! I wish they could have built us a whole new fence! The repairs to the existing fence are very good. There was a small situation about the repairs to the existing fence. Although we had talked about cutting off a part of an existing panel and attaching the repairs to the pole, they ended up attaching the fence to the existing fence. I should have reviewed what I had wanted again with everyone since it had been a couple of weeks since they had come for the initial estimate. When I approached them about the issue, they reinforced the fence really nicely to make sure that the repairs were extra strong, which is what I was worried about in the first place. I know they were very busy, but they worked us into their schedule which I am sure was not easy. It was much appreciated.
Description of Work: Added new fence and gate to side yard area (approximately 12') and fixed one corner of our existing fence that needed a new panel created. They also replaced some old boards in the existing fence that needed to be replaced.

This is a great company. Jose and his team were punctual, tidy, professional, and thorough. He did exactly what we wanted and offered to change anything if we did not like it. He treated the fencing like it was his own, and took pride in his work. He did not rush through the job, but finished in a timely manner. We will tell everyone we know about him.
Description of Work: Tore out old fencing ans put up new (stained). Also replaced wood support poles under patio awnings with metal poles. Cleaned up debris and hauled away.

I tried to contact several handymen to do this job and none were available. Then I called Jose. He was also very busy, but when I explained the time urgency, he came in very early before another job to take care of my fence. I truly appreciated his flexibility and he did a great job. All gates now function properly and my dogs are not getting out of that yard! He was courteous, well spoken, clear about what he would be fixing and did that job on time and well. You can't ask for much more than that. When I do replace the fence, I will definitely call him back.
Description of Work: Three gates needed to be repaired (hardware and wood) and about 6 spots on the bottom of the fence needed to be repaired to prevent dog escapes. This is a house I just purchased and I needed to get the fence and gates fixed PRIOR to moving in for the dogs to be safe. TIME WAS VERY IMPORTANT.
