Get matched with top wood fence installers in Forest Lake, MN

"Fence installation went exactly as outlined. Very satisfied with fence and employees."

"Overall the service provided was good. The fence looks great and it took just a few days to complete. Workers were considerate and polite. They provided extra touches to give the fence a better look. A few boards warped after starting to dry. The company replaced the boards, and left a few extra boards in case needed. Great fence, very good installation and good customer service."

"The people were nice. The fence is sturdy. It was built upside down and inside out-- they put the attractive face side toward the garage and the rough backside where is is visible. Go figure. They put the top rail rough side up. If you work with them, make sure you discuss this! They got the job done, sooner than expected. I think the price is kind of high for a pine board fence."

"Everything went great! The fence had to be moved to expand the yard, and they came out right away to extend the fence. They have been very responsive in answering questions and have been great to work with. We would highly recommend Hidden Fence."

"Max and the team at Ridgeline Fence and Deck were incredibly efficient and put up a beautiful cedar fence around my home. From the customer service to the craftsmanship and attention to detail, everything turned out spectacular. Highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fence in the twin cities / greater metro area!"

"The saleperson met with us quickly after we asked for an estimate.  She provided a couple of different options as well as pictures of the different fencing.  She was able to provide on the spot pricing.  The pricing was pretty consistent with the others we had quoted and we chose artistic fence because their nicer option was 300 cheaper than the competition.  After scheduling out 3 weeks we were able to make a couple of changes to our original estimate.  The gentlemen that worked on the fence worked diligently and professionally.  It was completed in 3 days.  The only constructive comment I will make is they don't tell you that the dirt accumulated from digging the post holes is your responsibility.  We didn't ask in the first place, but it would have been nice to know that we had some work ahead of us that isn't included in the job.  The gentleman was very good about asking where to put the dirt/clay until I could get to it.  Overall, price was good, fence looks great, and no issues.

"We originally spoke to Peckel and two other contractors in 2009 for an estimate on a new fence, but had decided to hold off on installing one that year. When we decided to go ahead with it this year, we only called Peckels due to the great service we received last year, including the amount of time they had spent with us talking about our plans/options and the very detailed estimate/plans we had received. When they arrived to update our estimate, they had the original plan/estimate in hand and were able to recall our discussion from a year before! We discussed some changes we wanted, some problem areas we hoped they could address, and also were told about this great buy on tongue and groove cedar they had recently received. Due to changes to our original fence design and the great buy on wood, the estimate came down almost $2000, so we were very pleased. They also noted that we had dogs, so that they would have to work fast to get the old fence down and the new one up. They estimated they could begin the work in 3 weeks and were right on target. They removed our old chain link and installed the new posts in about a day and half. The cement work around the base of the posts was very professionally finished off and the posts were perfectly aligned. As they began the fence installation, they ran into a few problems in our yard that changed the originally plan, but made sure to reach out to us to discuss our options befpre proceeding. The fence installation took about 2? days, and we couldn't be happier! Our yard is not level, sloping down in one corner, and they did an incredible job adjusting the fence to match the slope while keeping the top line laser leveled. We also had requested a double gate along the back to allow us to open up the fence to throw snow off our driveway, and they created a great double gate for just that. They knew the reason for the new fence was one of our dogs, who fancies himself an escape artist, and took great care to ensure any opening was small enough to prevent his escape (so far he has searched every corner with no success!). They also took great care to finish off our neighbors chain links fences to not leave any gaps for them, which we (and they) greatly appreciated. The finished product is great! We love the look of it and the craftmanship! Everyone we dealt with at Peckels was professional and considerate - always thanking us for the work. This was one of the best experiences we have ever had with a contractor, and would definitely recommend them to friends/family or hire them again."

"The fence looks very nice and I would recommend Jerry to anyone."

"Some of the positives: 
Prices seemed reasonable (I grew up in a family business that does construction so I was somewhat knowledgeable in this).  
Randy Schenk was our project manager and was always great to answer phone calls and get issues resolved quickly.  
Some of the negatives:  
1.  The time between accepting their bid, and the time it took to get started was over a month!  Not necessary.  We almost dropped them at that point.
2.  We had some gutter problems (leaking onto our front porch) we noticed shortly after they were installed.  The subs HW hired came to inspect and didn't even get out of the car or ring our doorbell.  HW later told us they "didn't see anything wrong".  Obviously.  It would be hard to see the gutters from the road!  HW says they will fix our gutters as soon as the weather warms up.  We hope this is true!
3.  Three months after construction was finished on our home I received a lien notice in the mail from a sub-contractor they hired to do our siding.  It appears they were not paying their sub-contractors on time.  Even though we had paid them in full, the law holds home owners responsible for unpaid work, even if it is the general contractor who is negligent.    Luckily, I had saved all the closing documents from HW and they had included a lien release that meant we could not have any liens placed on labor or parts used in the work done on our home.  I'm not sure how this would work for homeowners paying through loans or with insurance.  These documents quickly released us from any legal or financial obligations, but I would warn others that Hoffman Weber has financial issues that have not been cleared up with their sub-contractors.  Not a good sign.

"One structure in the form of a arbor with a gate completed our fence.
     The other structure a small deck outside of the lower sliding glass doors, with a pergola added,
     gives a quiet shady respite to the yard.
      We also had Hal design and build a fountain feature added to the garden area itself.  Which gives a soft
      and flowing water sound near the small deck.
      The work overall is outstanding with a very finished look.  It was also accomplished as per estimate of
       time and cost.  They were very considerate to make the work space neat and clean each day at finish
       time.
     
       We would "highly" recommend these contractors to anyone wanting this type of excellent yard work done.
