Do it yourself, you Weiner

I’ve had Hagan Fence do a few jobs for me and have been pleased. Ask for Russ

AntiqueTiger will do it.

I honestly have someone I can recommend, if you are interested email me at christopher.w.williams@gmail.com

I used Forrest Scott Fencing. It was good and bad.

Good: Sales rep new is job; did the appropriate job on estimating. The crews did a good job with demolishing the existing chain link fence. New fence work was very good; everything was even; they chopped through roots where necessary and made a 90° jog in the fence at one spot as well.

Bad: Sales rep and their website said "Western Red Cedar" was their cedar fence material. They substituted Japanese Cedar without telling me. Contract said "Traditional Cedar Fence." I didn't think anything of it given what both the rep and website said. I ended up withholding the final half of payment until they resolved it. Again, the work was good, and the fence was up by the time I confirmed the material type, so it probably would have been a huge fight to get it torn out and western red installed, but they cut me $750 dollar break on the total price, so they at least made it somewhat right.

So, real lesson I learned is make sure the contract states materials you expect to be used. Do not sign anything with generic terms next to it. Check the material when it's delivered and don't allow any work if something doesn't look right.
