They didn't let the rain slow them down! I'll have more work for them in the future. Very fair pricing too.

Scott Caylor has taken over the fencing part of the business. They came out and got our farm fence up with two gates in two days. They were very professional and nice. A joy to work with. I would recommend them to anyone.

This was the worst experience I have ever had with a contractor. The fence posts were not cemented properly. Too little concrete or none at all. Posts were cut too low and then the miscuts were actually NAILED back on instead of replacing the posts. The lowest rail if the fence is practically on the ground and I will be forced to take it all down and move up so it is not exposed to the ground contact.The contractor was paid to tear down the old fence and haul away yet the majority of the old fence and concrete was thrown on my neighbors lot instead. I complained about the fence and he did come back out and replace a few of the cut posts but this time did not cut the excess at all. I have since emailed him because he did not fix all the posts but he ignores my emails. I am disgusted with the work! I don't understand how the other reviews can be five stars.

Our fence is in and we are very happy with the contractor! They put in a fence for us with special gates. Quality is great and guaranteed, people were friendly and knowledgeable. They came out quickly when called for a quote and scheduled the work for a reasonable number of days out, then completed the work in the timeframe that was promised. I look forward to having Jim, Scott and Alan work on more of our projects!! Penn James Home Services - 770-823-9474. Licensed Georgia Residential Builder

Very nice folks but they tried to cut corners. I must say that I had no knowledge of fence building and was sometimes confusing. A few of the cross member fence boards were far from centered on the upright posts!
Response from Penn James Home Services
"No. We built the fence then KIRK changed his mind and we rebuilt the whole thing again... for no additional charge. We went above and beyond, as we always do."

They put up a farm fence with wire behind it on 1/2 acre for my dogs along with a screen porch so all I have to do is open any door to let them out to their big yard. It looks classy! The gates are handmade, very sturdy, and beautifully unique. The screen porch is also very well done. Nice people to work with and very few problems. A great contractor to hire !
