Description of Work: I called for an estimate to replace or repair a sagging privacy fence gate. Ronnie showed up, on time, and gave a fair price to repair my gate. The crew showed up the next day and completed the job in a professional and timely manner.

The over-all project went very smooth from a customer point of view. The project was on the schedule initially communicated to me, and the quality of the service was exceptional. I am very much pleased with the service and the end results. This vendor has exceeded the rating chart. A1 Fence has earned a A+ rating from me.
Description of Work: Provider tore down and removed an old fence, following installing a new fence around the perimeter of the back yard. The employees were very professional during the construction period, and needless to say did a quality job.

A month ago they quoted me the price and the dates of installation and were right on time. The price I paid was the lowest I was quoted from 3 other fence companies. I am completely satisfied and definetly recommend them to any one needing a fence. I will use them again for my front yard in the near future.
Description of Work: A-1 Fence and Welding installed a chain link fence with two gates in my back yard. The fence is great! They were friendly and professional. They removed a wooden fence and removed it and left the propery very clean. I am sure I will enjoy having the fence for many years. Great job! THANK YOU!

Holes dug (lots of limestone rock on property), metal steel posts erected and cemented in place, metal crossbeams welded in place, metal panels erected (all was carefully measured for 6 foot high fence) and metal cap placed on top of fence. Gliding gate erected for easy access to property. The fence was color coordinated to match the home. We are very happy with the fence that was erected. Ronnie and Scott and crew did a fantastic job. Would recommend them to anyone that wanted a well built fence. They are very meticulous with their work. Thanks to all.

The service was fine, they came when they said they would, and work was fine, it has held up for the last couple of years. It is a shared fence, and I got them because they did the fence on the other side. One side was shared with a neighbor and the other side, I had paid for, myself, so they did two separate jobs at two separate times.

It went very well. They showed up on day one, about 9:30, parked at the curb, worked all day, clearing out the old fence and setting the new poles. The crew was very polite, took care of themselves and answered all questions when asked. They returned two days later, worked all day, installed all the new fence and gates. It looks great and is perfectly straight. The owner called the next day to follow up and make sure that we were satisfied. He said that he will make repairs for a year, if necessary. I was very impressed with the crew, the operation, and the result.

The assessment before installation was thorough and they spoke on all intents and if there would be any hiccups. They answered all questions and made some suggestions and recommendations. They started on time and and worked through the day. Had a screw come loose on part of the fencing. Contacted the company and they responded immediately. The fencing looks great and we get alot of compliments. One of my neighbors are thinking about getting one now. Would definitely recommend A-1 Fencing and Welding. Great Job!

We first called to just get the back fence done because our wooden one was falling down. At first we was going to replace it with a new wooden one but they gave us such a great price on the metal fence we decided to go with that. After seeing how the metal fence looked across the back we decided to call them back and finish the rest of the fencing around the property. WE contacted A1 fencing because we had used them before and we were very pleased with their work. Just like before they came gave us a great price, set up a time to start and finish and was very professional. A1 fencing have done excellent work for us each time we have used them. We have recommended them to our neighbors and friends many times and they have been pleased also.

These guys are awesome; they are professionals and strive to please the customer. Ronnie even came on his day off (Sunday) to speak with my wife about the details of the fence. When it was time for the job to start they came when they said they would, work thru very hot days and manage to do the job right the first time. In the end I was happy with the product, the job, communication and professionalism that these guys displayed. I wish they were more companies like these. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone who's looking to put up a fence.

The representative came when he said he would; gave me an estimate and date the gates would be installed; the installers were there on the date the representative told me they would be, although a bit late, but they called to let me know early enough so that there was no issue; and the gates look and work great. Very pleased with the service and personnel I dealt with. Would use them again, for sure! Thanks, Angie.

I was referred to Angies list for professional businesses contractors so I tried a few but I still get the same results, I feel like its because I am deployed out of the country and the work performed is just to get paid, so the story here is I hired A-Fencing for a chain link fence scheduled me for 11 June, spoke with Scott advised him importance of time frame and I would like to cancel because I need it before the so he moved date earlier end of May but it was a rush job they did not measure off for property line and did not pay for required permit through City, once fence was installed my friend called them to ask how come it was so close to the home and the receptionist told her that the measurements was correct because the city came out 4 days prior to mark property line which was a lie because once they moved the installation schedule it was only 2 days to start, so I called the city and spoke with Sonya and she stated they do not go out to mark property line that has to be done by surveyor, so I then called A-1 spoke with with receptionist informing her what Sonya from City of Killeen inspections said and the receptionist told me that a company called Lonestar had went which was a lie also so I ask for the number but she would not give it to me then Ronnie gets on the Phone asking how can he help me so I explained the situation again, then he stated they are the one who marks for the property line and informed him I am receiving 3 different answers which one is the truth. Scott stated the the neighbor showed him where property line lye so I ask you are going to go by what a neighbor says. He then said he had also found a pin in my back yard for marking which I don't believe because I have just removed the fence previously, so I called Bell County Appraisal office for copy of plat sent it to A-1 said he cannot use it doesn't show him where the property lies called appraisal office back explaining to them exactly what I needed so they sent a different survey spoke with Ronnie on today 06/05/2013 said they would go back out to look at propery again and re-measure. This company is a Rip-Off all about money do not care about the customer. I will be waiting for return phone call.

In response to [member name removed] complaint regarding her chain link fence installation: • Original price was $1,350.00. Customer stated she had a coupon from Angie’s list for $50.00 bringing the cost of the job to $1,300.00. • We require half down at signing of the contract which was $650.00 at that point the customer is given dates for the job to be started on and then completed on. • [member name removed] was out of the country therefore she had a representative acting on her behalf in this matter. Her representative was in our office at for the signing of contract and was given the following dates: June 11th, 2013 for a start date and June 13th, 2013 for a completion date which she agreed with. She left our office and come back within ten minutes starting those dates were out of the question and wanted a full refund. • Mr. Morgan was able to get in touch with [member name removed] via the telephone on May 23rd, 2013 and reach an agreement on two new dates which were May 28th, 2013 and May 30th, 2013. By doing this another job was postponed in order to accomodate [member name removed]. • Also at that time we called in a dig marking which takes up to 48 hours for the locator to mark any underground utilities. • On May 24th, 2013 we applied for a permit for work to be done with The City of Killeen. • On May 28th, 2013 we went to [member name removed] address to set the poles for her fence at that time my crew leader called to say that her neighbor had come outside and stated that his fence was inside his property line about 4 to 5 feet. [member name removed] was recently surveyed and we were able to find the property pins and set her poles accordingly to the property lines. • On May 30th, 2013 we installed the 4 foot chain link fabric, top rail and gates to complete her job contract. [member name removed] then called and said her fence should be further over to her neighbors fence line and that we did not “do it right” and that she doesn’t want the fence. • I personally along with Mr. Morgan went to the job site to once again locate the property pins and measured to insure the fence was in fact installed correctly which it was. • I then spoke with [member name removed] and she told me that she did not want the fence period. • At that point there was nothing to be done except remove the said fence. Which we did, but we left the poles in place only removing the chain link. At the time the poles are set the job is 60% complete. • Upon the removal of the fence there has been numerous correspondence with [member name removed] trying to come to a solution to address her complaint to no avail. • As previously stated the poles are set this job is 60% complete. A-1 Fence and Welding is not willing to refund [member name removed] her down payment of $650.00 for work that we already performed as agreed to in her contract. • What A-1 Fence and Welding is willing to do is come back out and finish the other 40% of work needed for the job to be complete as long as she will pay for that work do be done per the agreed amount on her contract which is an additional $650.00 to be pain in advance. A-1 Fence and Welding takes pride in our work and values our customers. We strive to satisfy each and every customer 100% as evidenced by our high score on Angie’s list as well as other consumer lists, but unfortunately [member name removed] is not willing to work with us. If I can be of any further assistance with this matter, please do not hesitate to call me at the number listed below. Thanking you in advance for your time and attention to this matter.

We have used these folks before on installing chainlink fencing. So as that experience was very good we wanted to use them again when these two projects came up. Ronny and Scott are two very knowledgeable professionals and demonstrated they would go the extra mile to satisfy their customer. Overall we were again very pleased with the work and that these two professionals were very concerned that the work they did for us was done to our satisfaction. Thanks Ronny, Scott and the crew!!
