"About 100 l.f. of cedar picket fence was removed and replaced. The work was quoted promptly with an estimated start date. All questions were answered promptly. We were emailed and called prior to the work starting. The crew was professional and neat. The work took two days; one to remove the old fence and install new posts and one to install the fence. The crew was easy to work with and offered suggestions for solving little issues. They even put up a temporary fence for the dog. The old fence was hauled away. The area was cleaned when work was complete. We are very happy with the new fence. This was the most pleasant experience we’ve ever had with a contractor. I highly recommend Defence Enterprises."

"Not only did Scott do a great job installing my fence around my patio, he installed my fence in the middle of winter, while the ground was still frozen. He also chopped down a couple of trees for me. Scott did a great job installing my fence, the price was right & my fence looks nice!! Anytime you need outdoor work, you should reach out to my guy Scott @ Maeder Enterprises. They all do great work all year round, even in the winter!"

"Dusty S. Was the technician that serviced our electronic dog fence. The fence had been cut by the cable company. Dusty was responsive, polite and knowledgable. He is an asset to his company."

"Time consuming but worth it. They understood Ann Arbor's local ordinances better than any other bidder, and were the most competitive bidder (if not by much, but they still were the lowest bidder). They made multiple trips to ensure the estimate was accurate and took pains to find a fencing solution that would comply with Ann Arbor's convoluted rules, yet be both functional and aesthetic. Multiple install trips as well, to deal with tree removal issues and weather problems. Final installed fence is beautiful. We likely will follow up because the locks installed on the two gates installed are proving difficult to manage, but I fully expect this issue to be resolved satisfactorily. (We have not yet contacted them about this, so it's not their fault that this issue remains unresolved - it's been a complicated year for us and, having worked with them, we trust in their ability to resolve this concern later. If we are wrong about this, we'll follow up on our review.) We found Upright Fence through Angie's List, and it was a good recommendation. We would do it all again exactly as it happened if given the option. We are so relieved to have the old, collapsing wooden fence removed and a new, vinyl fence - properly installed along the lot boundaries. Our thanks to the Upright team...we can understand why they've been in business so long. Experience does indeed count for something."

"M. Bland did a terrific job. Very responsive to emails, phone and texts and kept us up-to-date on permit, materials, weather delays. Showed up on day he indicated and worked until job was finished. Very conscientious with work, every day ended with him using power blower to clean up any sawdust or other materials. We would definitely recommend as the final install looks great and gates work well. All this after three years of trying to find a competent fence installer that would do what they said. We appreciate the businesslike approach of M. Bland. Thanks"

"Joel from Lars David was easy to work with and typically responded int e reasonable time frame. The only real delay was trying to nail down an installation date (all the deck builders are really busy thus time of year). As it was new construction I told them I wanted to get them in before the sprinklers and sod went in to avoid them trampling the new sod but could not hold off getting the sprinklers and sod any longer. Once I gave them dates for the sprinkler and sod installation the hustled to get the deck installed before ahead of the sod. Their initial crew arrived on a Wednesday to dig the post holes and lay down the plastic and rock that would be under the deck. Thursday was the post hole inspection. They started the installation on Friday and finished up on Saturday. There was only one small issue I had where there was a downspout where the deck was going. When I asked their plan for that downspout the installers indicated they planned on cutting a hole in the deck to run it through. As the downspout was next to a corner of the house I told them to simply remove the bottom portion and I would re-route it off the side of the house so they would not need to cut a hole in my brand new deck. I simply wish they would have asked what I wanted to do about the downspout, but I also was not home, except for 30 minutes, during any of the installation so they would have needed to call me about it. I was home when the inspector came by after the installation. The city inspector said they were the best builder he deals with and that I chose well when selecting the deck contractor. <br /> Overall I'm very pleased with the work they performed. The price was slightly less than what I was quoted form a few other contractors for trex composite decking yet I got fully synthetic decking instead (less potential issues with full synthetic vs composite). <br />"

"I was told that they are in Southwest Detroit and that I should look for someone in my own area (I'm 20-25 miles from there). It seems this is the way it goes with Angie's List. All the contractors are too busy or have very small service areas. I will probably go back to using other ways to find contractors, so I can find someone who is available to do the work."

"Carl is a Master deck builder. Even though there were unforeseen issues with the project, Carl always had a repair plan. Carl pays attention to detail. His work with his son was exceptional."

"I highly recommend Cedar Works for your next deck project. We couldn't be happier with the outcome. The installation and results of the deck and cable rail surpassed our expectations. Pat and Mike, the father and son duo, showcased meticulous attention to every detail. Their exceptional craftsmanship, coupled with their genuine kindness throughout the entire process, solidified our confidence in choosing Cedar Deck for our project."
