Home owners in the Dallas - Fort Worth Metroplex have been trusting their fencing needs to Fence Works since the company's inception in May of 1998. Founder and owner Doug Moore began Fence Works with the determination to set his company apart in the industry by providing a quality product at a fair price, conducting business with honesty and integrity, and providing service that would meet or exceed the expectations of his customers. Proud winner of the Angie's List Super Service Award each year from 2007 - 2015. We specialize in residential fence and gate installation and repair.
I first contacted Fenceworks via their website e-mail on April 24th to request an inspection and bid on replacing a fence that blew down during a storm the previous night. Doug contacted me by e-mail Monday evening and he planned to come by on Wednesday evening to assess my damage and bid on the cost to replace or repair my fence. He never showed up or contacted me to reschedule. I contacted him again via e-mail on Wednesday, May 4th and asked that if he were still interested in bidding for this work to contact me by end of day. Again, I did not hear from him. On Thursday, May 5th I notified him that I had selected another company to do the work.
Description of Work: I was requesting a bid on repair or replacement of my 6' privacy fence that blew down during a severe wind storm.

They did a better job for less money than another company I called and use better materials. They came and did exactly what theysaid they would do. Doug Moore, the owner, was even present and even did the welding himself which I thought was wonderful! I would definitely use this company in the future and recommend them.
Description of Work: They added 2 feet to the top of a chain link fence so that my big dog couldn't get out. They welded 2 foot posts to the top of the 4 foot posts so that it is stronger rather than slipping on a sleeve.

I called for a small repair job on my fence on Friday afternoon. Doug returned my call Saturday morning and gave me an estimate over the phone. He advised me they were booked up 3-4 weeks but thought they could work my small job in soon. Doug called me the next business day and showed up with his crew and completed the work.
Description of Work: 2 fence posts broken and gate wouldn't shut properly.

I found Doug while searching through the higher rated fence contractors on Angies List. After interviewing several companies he seemed to present the best value and quality. He did not disappoint. He started and finished his job as in the time frame he said. Even more importantly was the fine quality of his work . He was on site the whole time with his crew throughout the project. The final product looks great. I would highly recommend him and Fence Works.

- The job went very well...exactly as advertised, and for slightly less cost than estimated. We were also able to take advantage of a winter sale being offered. - They were prompt on on their initial visit, in which they provided a cost-free estimate. This visit was completed very quickly and an estimate provided on the spot. - They showed up promptly on the day of the job, and were able to complete it without our being available the entire day (my wife and I both work). - The job was completed in less than one day, which was important to me because we have three dogs that use the back yard. The work was very professional, as was the clean-up. - They called the next day with a follow-up to ensure we were happy with the job. - I would use this company in the future and would definitely recommend them to others!
Description of Work: - Replaced 150' of cedar fence (located in my back yard) that had badly rotting cross-rails and pickets. - Replaced 3 metal poles and reset 2 additional metal poles that were badly leaning. - Removed all old material and cleaned up the yard.

Doug came out promptly to bid it and we were impressed with him during that part of the process. He himself came with another worker which I liked because a lot of times with these service companies it seems the owner bids then has workers come who may not have the same level of competence. He was patient with all our questions and our extreme eye for details and met all our expectations.

Doug Moore, owner of Fence Works, is the consummate professional. The first time we hired Doug was in 2009; he installed board-on-board fencing with a driveway gate at the front of our new (to us) home. The workmanship and quality is incredible and I can't count the complements we've received on this fence and gate. When we were ready to replace part of the old backyard fence, we again chose Doug. Once more we are extremely pleased. His attention to detail and his expertise are world class. I highly recommend Fence Works for any fencing, and we will definitely use him again as we complete our exterior remodel.
Description of Work: Installed +/-200' board-on-board cedar fence with top cap and trim, boxed-in metal posts and cedar bottom kick board.

I found Fence Works highly rated on Angie's List and gave them a call. I was not disappointed. Doug was able to respond quickly with a visit to my house and gave me a very competitive estimate. I agreed to have him do the work and he scheduled it for a few days later. He gave me a call to let me know he would be able to do the job a day earlier and asked if that was ok with me. I said yes and the crew was out there the next day to install the fence. It is a professional job and Doug was a pleasure to work with. I agree with the other people who have rated Doug and Fence Works and completely agree that he does great work and is a pleasure to work with.

Response from Fence Works
I do recall receiving your phone call. What you have described is not actually what happened. As I remember, I was on my cell phone and was walking to my truck to obtain something on which to write your information. Somewhere during that walk the call was dropped. I hit redial on my phone and got a receptionist who told me there was no way for her to know from whom the call had come. Upon ending that call, I found that you had already left me a voicemail accusing me of being a dishonest businessman. You did not leave your name or contact information which left me unable to respond. I am proud to live in a country that gives us the freedom of speech. It is unfortunate when someone uses that freedom wrecklessly without having all the facts.

What a professional from the time he gave us his estimate to the finished product. Doug and his co-worker were always on time, gave us the opportunity to ask questions during the construction, took great care when working in our (4) neighbors' yard areas and cleaned up each night prior to leaving. It was 2 full days of hard labor, even working through rain to complete the task on time. When the job was complete, Doug asked that we inquire with each neighbor sharing the fence if they saw anything from their view that needed attention. All of our neighbors were very pleased with the finished product. We would definitely recommend Doug/Fence Works to anyone who wanted a quality product at a fair price.
Description of Work: Removal and disposal of 287 linear feet of 6 ft high old fence. Galvanized steel posts were set in concrete and the 6' tall and 4" wide pickets of #1 grade western red eared cedar were used to build the entire fence picket by picket. The pickets were installed on 2"x4" rails on pressure treated 4"x4" posts set in concrete. A 2"x6" cedar cap with 1"x4" cedar face trim was installed on top of new fence.The wood was stained using dipping method prior to installation.

Doug, the owner of the company came out and gave me an estimate to replace part (the back section) of our backyard fence. He did an excellent job. He and one other man showed up on time and had the entire section of fence completed in two or three hours. He also replaced three broken pickets on the side fence for no charge. I highly recommend him for any fencing job. He is very professional and a pleasure to do business with.

It is our opinion Angie's List Members could save time & stop looking for fence companies if they have considered FenceWorks for one of their bids. FenceWorks/Mr. Moore and crew seem to be skilled carpenters . He uses no subcontractors & he is on site, WORKING with his crew for the entire job. Fence is neat, even and sturdy. Arrived promptly each day. Cleaned up ALL areas of construction in both yard & drive, including raking up wood chips, etc. at the end of each day's work. The FenceWorks crew was pleasant He took the time to ask our opinions on the most minor of decisions that had to be made on our fence installation to be sure the final product was exactly what we wanted. FenceWorks also worked with strict city officials & our landscape crew to make sure our fence worked with city codes & with our yard, which is not an easy or flat yard. Because Mr. Moore is on-site for the entire job & because he does not use sub-contractors, there may be a short wait of a week or so to get your job started, but we found it is well worth the wait.
Description of Work: PROMPTLY came out & gave bids. FenceWorks ( Mr. Moore ) was most accommodating to revise bids to work around demands of : 1) a difficult yard / installation; 2) our limited budget; 3) extremely strict building codes of our particular city. Did work exactly as specified & worked closely with us during construction to make sure FenceWorks met our expectations in any areas of question. Removed old fence. Worked with city officials on proper permit & installation. Installed new fence : WONDERFUL JOB. This company made the entire process easy for us - no worries, professional, turn-key operation. We opted to have FenceWorks pre-stain the fence with a dipping process that coated each entire board & the result was a very nice product.

We wanted a fence / gate that would go from the front corner of hour home and across the driveway, extending to the corner of our property. Doug and his crew were an excellent choice - very professional, excellent work and workmanship and prompt attention when we had a recent problem (this problem was not related to the work or materials). The Fence Works crew arrived on time, created a gorgeous fence / gate and cleaned up afterward.

I couldn't be more pleased with the work that was done or the materials that were used. Doug is very professional, and he does excellent work. We found him to be very courteous and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. He was very patient with us when we were trying to decide what type of fence to build, and was able to answer all of the questions that we had. Update 12/19/2010 I had a few pickets split since the installion while the fence was still under warranty, so I e-mailed Doug and he promptly came out and replaced them all at no additional cost. He did this for me on two separate occasions. I'm very pleased with Doug's integrity and level of service.
Description of Work: Removed and disposed of 144' of existing fence. Installed 6' tall 6" inch wide #1 grade board on board cedar pickets with pressure treated 2"x4" rails on 2 3/8" x 0.95" metal posts set in concrete 8' on center. Installed a 2"x6" cedar top cap with 1"x4" cedar trim on new fence. Installed pressure treated 2"x6" at base of fence. Also 1 custom 6' tall wooden walk gate.

We used Angie's List and the BBB website to research fence companies in the NE Tarrant area. That is how we found Doug Moore with Fence Works. We had multiple bids and his was close to the lowest bid, but not the lowest. We are very pleased with the fence. One of the biggest reasons is that Doug was on site and did much of the work himself. He can be described as a true craftsman - not just someone trying to build a fence as quickly as they can and then go on to the next job. He also uses high quality materials. I would not have any reservations in recommending Doug Moore for a fencing project.
Description of Work: The scope of the work was 190+ feet of 6" (approx. 123' of 6' and 70' of 8') cedar fencing with 2x4 cedar rails and a 1x4 cedar top trim. In addition it included pre-dipping the cedar in Ready-Seal and using 1x4 cedar to box in the steel posts.

I called to have an estimate for a new fence and was provided quotes for different options. One for Cedar and one for Spruce. We decided to go with a #2 Cedar (more knots) and the work started about 3 weeks later. The fence was completed in two days (day one to set posts and day two to complete). The crew was very professional and cleaned up after themselves very well. Overall transaction was excellent. Very professional and excellent craftsmanship. I could not be happier with this fence.

The person whom I contacted for an estimate did not set an appointment with me. He complained about the distance which is only about 20 minutes. He came in and just left something under my door. I asked him to set an appointment so that I could be there and tell him exactly what I wanted. He said that it has to be during the weekend and he did not know the time. He informed me that he would leave it under the door if I wasn?t there. Therefore the bid was incorrect as I could not tell him what I wanted. He wasn?t very professional.

We called Doug for an estimate, leaving a voice message. He promptly returned our call, set up a time to talk to us and provide an estimate. He called on the appointment date and arrived early. We walked the job. He listened attentively, answered our questions and made some constructive suggestions. He completed his estimate onsite and left it with us. His estimate was neither high nor low. After deliberation my wife & I selected Doug for our project because of his courteous and professional manner. My wife called Doug to schedule the project. Doug arranged to get all utility lines marked and on the start date he and his crew were on site on time. They worked diligently to remove the old fencing and proceeded to erect the new fence. It was a one day project scheduled for unfortunately one of the hottest days yet in our area, 100 degrees. They were exceptionally neat, hauling all debris away and cleaning up after themselves. Once complete, Doug invited me to do a walk thru which we did. The fence looks great and Doug and his crew were great to work with. PS my neighbor had some issues with a couple of sprinklers adjacent to the new fence and Doug took care of resolving them.
Description of Work: Removed dilapidated 6 ft tall sections of wood fence along one side of our side/back yard and replaced with 8ft tall cedar fencing w/gate.
