Get matched with top wood fence repair pros in Libertyville, IL

"We always turn to A&M Fence for repairs on our 22-year-old wood fence and they always do exceptional work. This year we had them replace one whole side of the fence around our yard, and we couldn't be more pleased. Not only is the work high-quality, but clean-up is thorough and the entire job was timely. They also know all the requirements for our local permit. Complete pleasure to work with."

"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."

"Installed vinyl fence. Looks beautiful"

"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!"

"Our overall experience was wonderful with Mejia fence! Hugo was very professional every time we talked. He got us an estimate right away, was patient with me when I didn't really know exactly what we wanted and went over all the options with me (repeatedly!). They were very efficient in getting the project done, it only took two days to tear down our old fence and build the brand new one! My only complaint is that we had a brand new puppy at the time and there were a couple of pieces of wood left behind with nails in them... luckily we watched out for these things but that could be dangerous! Since the ground was wet there was quite a muddy mess where they walked too but I'm sure that wouldn't be the case if the ground had been dry! We could have elected to get the fence at a different time of year. I would recommend Mejia fence over and over, the fence turned out beautiful!"

"Very well took just 3 days fence looks great"

"Sierra Fence did an excellent job installing a wood fence in our back yard. Rafeal communicated well from the time he gave us an estimate to the completion of the project. He even came back a year later to adjust the latches at no charge."

"Dave's work was excellent and he was very dependable and professional. All 8 posts on the exterior wrought iron railings of our front stoop were badly rusted. Dave did a beautiful job of removing both railings from the steps, cutting out the rusted posts, welding in new posts, and re-cementing the fixed railings back into the concrete steps. The railings look perfect. The price was very reasonable."

"We had contacted another fence contractor from Home Advisor and they were not interested in our business. But John's Fence contacted us immediately, came out and quoted us and showed up on time, doing a fantastic job. We will definitely use them again in the future. They were friendly, understood what we wanted and really went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied."

"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!"
