"Fence looks great! Would recommend A&M Fence!"

"the biggest problem was the customer service rep who sold us a contract for fence repair. after 3 months and no work was done or no feedback from rep. we call main office and explain problem. the office had to order the lumber needed. within 4 days project was done. once work started it went well. the fence looks good. the customer rep we had was useless and was no help. he should find another job. bad experience with the customer rep."

"SP Fence installed my front and side fence. They quoted me a great price and, more importantly, they spent a lot of extra time making sure they got it just right, and the quality surpassed my expectations. I am picky, and this company delivers."

"Absolutely professional and fabulous wrought iron fence repair!! You will not go wrong with this company!!"

"Loved how our fence turned out, 2 years later and there has been no issues, holding up great!"

"Overall we were happy with the result, but disappointed with the communication. We wanted to finish the partial fence around our backyard, and gave First Fence the specs from our HOA. The estimator was behind and it took a couple weeks before he could come out. My husband waited at home for the estimator on the scheduled day, but he did not even ring the doorbell. My husband called him later in the day and he said he had already been out. My husband would have preferred to discuss the job with him in person while he was here, and was denied that ability. Also, our HOA specs required a 5' fence height, but the existing fencing was actually 6'. The estimator wrote up the quote for 5' per the HOA, and did not even mention that it would be different than the existing fencing (which was merely being continued - it would have looked horrible!). One day while we were considering the quote, I realized the fencing was actually 6'. We called the estimator, and his response was "yeah it's 6', I noticed that." He did not say anything about it to us before, nor did he note it on the estimate. Disappointing. After revising the quote to a 6' fence rather than 5' (increasing the price of course), we decided to move forward with First Fence and made the down-payment. When I asked, the rep said the installation would occur in 4 to 6 weeks. Again, disappointing since we were hoping for a quick installation. As time went on, we did not hear from First Fence at all. Finally, after 4 weeks had passed, I called First Fence and was told they had us on the schedule for a specific date about 2 weeks out on a Wednesday. We began planning for the installation, but then on the Friday before, First Fence called and told us they would install on Monday. That was less convenient and we had to reschedule other things to accommodate on such short notice. The installation of the approximately 130 feet (including 2 gates) was completed in one day. The workers were mostly professional, although one of them told my husband they did not have enough wood, despite the estimator having come out and measured. That was certainly not our fault! (We were not charged extra, but my husband was worried they were trying to blame us.) So the whole thing took a minimum of 8 weeks - 2 weeks for the estimator to come out, then we sat on the estimate for a bit and had it changed, then 6 weeks from returning the signed contract with down-payment to installation. The end result looks great - cedar shadowbox fence that encloses our backyard. I just wish they had communicated more/better. For example, the gate type/size and lock mechanism was not discussed (beyond the basic info on the quote). I wonder now if we had any other choices than what they installed for the mechanism, but it's too late. I would have also appreciated some "caring for your wood fence" guidance/pamphlets so we can protect and care for the beautiful cedar wood. For the price ($5170 before the Angie's List discount, $4653 after), I think they are a bit on the high side. Maybe they were up-quoting us because of the size of our house? But it was difficult to find a reputable fence company in our area. The fence passed local permit inspection a couple days later with no problems. We are now the envy of our neighbors who do not have finished fences. I'm just glad the installation is finally over!"

"We hired Rob to repair some broken slats and both gates on our older wooden fence. He was responsive, professional, and did great work. The amount he charged us was a really good value, especially considering the fact that it took him much longer to complete the work than he thought it would. I would definitely recommend hiring Mending Fences!"

"Dave did a great job repairing stair handrail. Quick response on RFQ and repair. Highly recommend."

"They were prompt at the set time and did and excellent job of taking care of the repairs needed and cleaned up all the debris that was needed"

"The front door of my brick house is trimmed with wood and is unprotected against the elements.  Portions of the wood had rotted, including parts of the pediment (i.e., the woodwork above the door). The original installers (back in 1939) cut curving 1-inch wide grooves, which matched the curving pediment roof, deep into the brick.  We chose to replace the pediment with the same style rather than deal with covering the grooves.  James removed the original pediment and, in a matter of days, created a new pediment with all the features and proportions of the original.  He installed, caulked, and painted it. 

He also solved a design problem that had caused two light fixtures to short out. The board to which the front porch light is attached is convex, making it difficult to get a tight seal with the back of the light fixture. James mounted a square board, concave on one side and flat on the opposite side, and attached the light fixture to the flat side. The solution turned out to be quite elegant. Finally, he cut out the rotten wood where the vertical trim met the concrete porch and fitted replacement wood that matches existing wood in depth and width.  I am more than satisfied with the work.  I am positively delighted!"
