They were very good. They were accommodating. They modified the fence from a four board to a five board. They put in two gates and they cleaned up very well after themselves. They arrived on time and they used nice cedar wood for the fence. We have a herding dog and we needed the fence to be taller. The fence would have normally been four feet tall and they made it a little over five feet tall for us.
Description of Work: They put in a five board paddock board fence with wire mesh on it to keep dogs in.

They performed the work promptly. They take credit cards and can do the work even when you are not home as it is outside. Price seemed a bit high, but we needed the work done in a certain time frame.

They were really good. They were professional and knew what they were doing. They understood that I didn't want in anyway to disturb my neighbor and their fence. They understood exactly what I wanted. They were experienced and knew how to interpret what I wanted to get done. They were accommodating.
Description of Work: They installed a new fence in the backyard and also installed a new gate. It was a wood fence.

They were great. The wood is high quality and the fence still looks great. They offered innovative ideas for the gate I wanted. They were prompt and finished on time. After a year I needed a gate to be adjusted, they came out and fixed no problem. I love the fact they stand behind their work and are willing to make adjustments when I need it. Great company

You could not ask for a better company to do fence work. Kris provided a very fair and accurate estimate for the work and is a pleasure to do business with. The crew that did the work, led by Samuel, did an excellent job. Everything was accurately installed and the area was totally cleaned up of all debris before they left. This was the second time I worked with Expert Fence and can't recommend them highly enough.

Expert Fence did an incredible job. We decided to go more "high end" than your average fence in how it runs over slopes (it stays even at the top at the front of the house even though it runs across a slope) and we went with an eyeless-type cedar, which almost has the quality of furniture and tends not to warp. Their website gave us both ideas, and was very helpful. They were incredibly fast and the appearance is - wow! We have had at least 10 strangers in the neighborhood compliment the fence. Almost a year after construction, one of the post caps split, probably from normal settling of the fence, and they came out promptly and replaced it for free. I am so happy we found them, and would recommend them in a minute...we still can't believe how beautiful the fence is about three years later.
Description of Work: Built a new fence around almost the entire yard plus two gates.

The job went extremely well. The work was completed over 2 days and the area was left clean and neat. The workers got there early and did a great job despite the extreme heat. Expert Fence called Miss Utility beforehand to ensure that the fence digging would not impact electrical wires. I was not aware that cable service lines were also buried in my the area (Verizon) and they were cut during the work and impacted my neighbor's service. I recommended to Expert Fence that they ask the client about any cable lines that could be involved and that they also contact that company to be sure that no lines would be cut.

The team showed less than 2 weeks after we signed the contract and installed the pergola in one day. They drilled the holes for the four posts without damaging any of the patio stones. They were professional and courteous. The team remembered us from when they installed our fence the year prior. Great job! I would definitely use them again. We have recommended them to multiple friends, some of which have already used them.
Description of Work: Expert Fence will construct a pergola, extending 14’ out from and 18’ along the house. (See attached diagram.) Extending outwards, two 2x10x14’ cedar beams with swoop tail cuts on the ends will connect each 6x6 cedar corner post (one beam on either side of the post). Laid longways across these beams, we will put approximately 10-12 notched 2x6x18 cedar beams with swoop tail cuts on the ends. The 6x6 cedar posts will be hollow (Quattro) posts, set over 2.5” galvanized steel piping, which will be invisible when complete. Pipes will be core-drilled* into the patio floor. * The core-drill will cut cleanly through the patio floor – however, if something unknown underneath the patio & cement obstructs the core drill (such as a rock), you must decide whether or not to authorize jack-hammering, which will very likely damage the patio floor.

These folks were perfect. They put up with my long decision process, redid the estimate several times based on changes we initiated, and then built everything to spec and installed it professionally and on time. The lattice enclosure looks nicer than I'd even thought was possible. Professionals all around.

We had a large complicated job with over 900 feet of fence. The salesman, Kris Pedersen, did an excellent job of working through the possible options. Where other companies refused to consider different approaches to the challenges involved in our job, such as the need to cross a stream, Kris kept an open mind and worked diligently to find the best solution. He even brought the owner, Dave, out to consult with us. Before choosing Expert Fence, we looked at several examples of their past work in both board and split rail. They offer upgrade options for both that really set them apart from the competition. While we ended up choosing a board fence, their split rail sourced from West Virginia is very unusual and impressive. We got five other bids. The only other company we' found that could compete in terms of quality quoted a price that was about 40% higher. We formed a trust relationship with Kris and Dave that was hard to duplicate with the site supervisor, Jose, once the actual work began. Knowing Spanish well enough to understand some of what he said to the crew did not help. But whatever concerns we had about Jose (the supervisor) were more than made up for by Jose (the installer). The second Jose was a true craftsman as were, seemingly, all of the people Expert Fence chose to work on our job. Expert Fence exceeded the specifications for our job by, for example, using a bag of concrete on every post, rather than every third post as specified in our contract, at no extra charge. We bought a large fixer-upper house, which means we've hired a lot of tradespeople recently -- plumbers, electricians, HVAC, flooring, etc. Of all the jobs we've had done on our house, our fence project has come out the best. We would recommend Expert Fence highly and without reservation.

The recent hurricane damaged the fence at the back of our lot that is owned by our neighbors. They decided not to repair or replace the fence and we needed to do something because we have several dogs. We contacted Expert Fence after checking Angie's List and Consumer Checkbook. Kris Pederson came out and discussed the options and took measurements. He provided an estimate with a variety of options within a couple of days. We decided we wanted to change the configuration so as to have more privacy and asked Kris to re-work the estimate. He did this very quickly. We decided to go with their proposal. They were able to schedule the work quickly (within three weeks, I think). The entire job was done in just a little over two days. The fence is beautiful! It transforms our backyard - it now feels like an outdoor room. The cedar is beautiful. The Expert Fence crew worked quickly and they cleaned up. We didn't find a nail, a cigarette butt, a water bottle, a soda can, NOTHING. The area was spotless. They took away the old fencing that we had them remove. Kris was a pleasure to work with. This price was competitive. The fence is beautiful. I would recommend them and I would use them again.

In cooperation with our neighbors, we had Expert Fencing come out and remove all the fencing that had been in place since the 80's. They removed all the fence, including the 4x4 posts along the sides. when they got to the 6x6 posts near the gate, they realized that they had been buried 5 feet down, with bags of concrete thrown in. They had to jackhammer out the two main posts, while not damaging the stairs. Once done, they replaced all the posts with 6x6, and installed cedar planks. As a final touch, they installed an Arbor over the gate. They also removed the old trash bin, and replaced with with a new box that mirrored the fence. Upon completion of the job, they cleaned all the lumber and made sure there were no nails around. I do wish they would have removed all the excess dirt from the holes, but everything else went well. We had an issue with the gate, and they came out the day after we called to fix the issue. Since we completed the fence, two additional neighbors have had them install a similar fence, and additional neighbors are considering having theirs replaced as well. I recommended them to a friend, and he had them out to complete a fence line. We have been extremely happy with our new fence.

I contacted their office and asked to schedule someone to come provide an estimate to replace large sections of a split rail fence. The employee answering the phone took all of my information down and said she would get back in touch with me later that day to schedule an estimate. After two weeks, she still has never called me back. I assume they didn't want my money/need my business if they can't return phone calls as she said she would. ----Update: I finally recieved a call from them 3 weeks after contacting them. I already had several other estimates to go with so I didn't schedule anything with them. It's nice they finally contacted me but it shouldn't have taken so long.

I would not recommend Expert Fence for two reasons. First, they do not honor their five year warranty. Although I have phoned and e-mailed multiple times over the last month, they continue to make excuses and have failed to fix the hand-welded section of my driveway gate. At the time of installation the owner assured me that this hand-welded section would last as long as the factory welded parts, but it has not and I am close to loosing total gate security because the hand-welded driveway gate parts have separated by more than 50%. The second problem with my Expert Fence installation is their Magna Latch choice. My locks freeze during the winter making me a prisoner on my own property and necessitating that I climb the side yard fence to access the public street from my property. When I told them about this problem during the first winter season after the two locking gates were installed in my front yard fence, they dismissed my concern by merely stating ?We?ve never heard of that.? No one ever came to see the frozen locks. If the locks were intended for gates surrounding outdoor swimming pools and have never been tested in cold weather for year round use around residential property without swimming pools, Expert Fence may find itself facing product liability issues. It?s not only inconvenient to have to climb a fence and wonder if you?ll be able to drive your car out of your own driveway if the driveway gate lock freezes in the winter, but could pose significant danger in an emergency situation. Since Expert Fence does not care to remedy either of these problems, I would not recommend them to anyone.
