Get matched with top wood fence installers in Powhatan, VA

"It's just a fence......... Ashley was our project manager, and she did all she could to help me get through the issues of my fence, which I appreciate. The actual installation of the fence is where the disconnect comes. The contractors are there to put up a fence. However, that may go. Since Dandale employs these people, I assume they are up to the company's standards and living up to Dandale's mission. I assume they have worked on other projects and have gotten approval, making their resolution and customer service how Dandale wants the experience to go. After my wood fence install, I had concerns about some of the wood quality used. The contractors dismissed me six times, saying they had to use it, and gave me the final walkthrough paper to complete on my FIRST final walkthrough. The final walkthrough paper is misleading because to sign is agreeing that "you are 100% satisfied," which was not true in my case. After getting in touch with Dandale and showing pictures, the contractors had a change of heart and suddenly left and returned with better wood quality. After changing the pickets and one rail post, I pointed out two more. Instead of changing the whole rail, they cut it with a chainsaw, cutting into the post simultaneously. They then put a new half piece up (for some reason, leaving the other half of the poor-quality wood still there) while leaving the splice in the post and the point where they connected unevenly showing. To make matters worse, they left without a walkthrough, meaning there was still another rail similar to this janky fix that needed attention, but at that point, I no longer wanted the same crew and mentioned this to Dandale when I contacted them with the new update. The answer: The same crew returned a third time to put a picket OVER the unsightly uneven half-board connection they made (hiding it) and did not address the issue of driving off. I asked the contractors for a new crew to do the final repairs, but they insisted on doing the last rail and, this time, did a final walkthrough with another family member. I still don't know what it looks like a day later, nor do I care to know. Dandale approves their methods, so there is no need to continue to go back and forth. My experience is why I say Gillian oversold the company. It is not a miracle fence company that only does fences and has the highest quality products. Some may be true, but it does not translate to an experience, unlike any other fencing company. My experience was not the highest experience or quality (without much back and forth). It is just a fence company that CAN put up a nice fence. It is not worth automatically stopping here just for the name or what the salesperson says at the two-hour quote (and yes, it takes two whole hours) CONS Pressure cooker: Personal preference probably, but I do not like making decisions on the spot. When you get the quote, you must accept it at the table or lose it. Another pressure cooker moment is when doing the final walkthrough; you are walking through with the same people with whom you may have voiced concern and had to go back and forth. Uncomfortable, especially if you have the same number of back and forth as I did. Problem-solving: When you have an issue with the contractors, they send the same contractors out to fix the problem you have already told them about. For me, this meant them leaving and coming back too many times. By the last time, it is clear that customer service is out the window. Quality: The contractors ignore the quality of the materials when picking, loading, unloading, or using them. Only some of the wood is poor quality, as most of mine was good; however, to boast that you have the highest quality product means you vet through the material. From my experience, this is not the case. It is "you get what you get." PROS: They offer a flat rate Military Discount They handle your HOA They advertise to have a five-year warranty (I cannot attend to how this will go, but I may have to use mine) The consult to get a quote is scheduled quickly The process from beginning to end is done as soon as possible The contractors were pleasant Gillian bleeds Dandale (she may have oversold the company, but she deserves every bit of acknowledgment for how she represents them) The direct Dandale employees are pleasant, professional, and friendly."

"Love my new fence!!! Love the communication and the options that were provided to me. Saul, the project manager was awesome making sure the measurements were correct and when the installation could be completed."

"I had gotten 3 estimates on replacing a wooden 4 rail fence surrounding my 2 acre property. Erik from Chesterfield Fencing was the last one I talked to and was very thorough on the products and procedure. Presented me with a high tech type estimate/quote. I'm impressed how the company has invested in such a beneficial program but doesn't seem to affect the cost of the job. 1st company (recommended by long time friend) estimator/owner had me hold tape measure in between an electrical storm (two houses in my area got hit by lightning in that very storm and quote was hand drawn not to mention they were the highest $!) Jacob came out to show me a sample of the aluminum fencing I had asked for when company #2 lowered the $ to meet Chesterfield. We discussed where the fencing materials come from and history of the company. As a former small business owner I respect that they are as well. Cody helped me decide on multiple situations on how to run the fence line. Cody's Red and Blue install teams exceeded my expectations!! Which confirms I chose the right company!!"

"I cannot speak highly enough of the owner Mr. Williams and the services with Craftsman Homes RVA. Mr. Williams was prompt, courteous and professional. He is committed to high quality, cost competitive work and customer satisfaction. He installed two huge new windows 74 in high x 7ft wide and 74 in high x 10ft wide on the exterior of my home, which required removing most of the existing wall prior to installation. They fit perfectly and look fabulous. He has a sharp eye for detail and great suggestions for design. We are confident in his abilities and work and feel good about being able to recommend a great professional contractor to our friends. We will be hiring him again for additional window installations, remodeling an addition."

"We are very pleased with the service we received from Good Neighbor Fencing. Bob Stewart was great to work with. He helped us select and design a fence that would work well in the space we planned to enclose. He also took notice of our dogs and suggested smaller spacing between the rails on the fence to be sure our smaller dog did not get out of the backyard once we had it fenced in. In addition to being very pleased with working with Bob, we were extremely happy with the installation that Vernon and Joe did. They were careful to ensure that the fence was installed properly and even went so far as to hand-dig the post holes so that they did not do any damage to our irrigation system and underground electric fence. All that said, my husband and I would recommend Good Neighbor Fencing without reservation."

"AW did great work repairing several brickwork areas around the outside of our 100 year old home."

"Did a great job removing carpet, installing hardwood floors and matching the floor with rest of the house"

"Wes is the best.  We have used him at two different homes and he always goes beyond what is expected.  We are now using him to assemble a gazebo kit we bought and put flooring in it.  He is also going to build a fence for our new home.  He has always been prompt, fair, and done great work.  This will be the 4th or 5th time we have used him. If he cannot do the job he passes and recommends someone who can.  I would not take a chance on anyone else as long as he is available.

"Mine was a relatively small job to replace rails on 70' of wood fence. The job was quoted and completed quickly, professionally and at a fair price. I recommend."
