Fortunately, I was observing what they were doing and the mistake was rapidly corrected.

They didn't mind changing the original plan in my effort to appease my neighbors. They gave great suggestions. They helped me hire a property line professional where I learned that that neighborhood who was not wanting me to build the fence as I originally planned, not only was the fence on my side of the property but that it sat several feet back from my property line and that I was in essence losing several feet of property to this neighbor. This helped me to be able to resolve the issue while maintaining my relationship with my new neighbor thus far. The fence portion that they have built is absolutely beautiful and they have offered great advice every time I have asked for it. They are amazing.

We first hired Fortress Fence Company to replace a 20ft section of fence facing the street. We were…read moreso impressed with the result that we had them come right back as soon as they were available to do a double-gate and another fence. Stephen was able to assess each project carefully and discuss options with us so that we could choose what was best for our budget and needs. The estimates were very fair and transparent. The quality of work is excellent and they aren't cutting any corners. The posts are very stout and they are anchored deep! I'm seeing perfect welds on the custom steel gate frame and precise measurements and cuts on all lumber. I was also happy to see high quality tools and equipment being used on site. The materials, hardware, and fastener choices will make sure their hard work lasts and also looks great for many years. Stephen and the crew were very courteous and kept us updated on the progress each day and cleaned up before they were done.

We wanted him to come and provide us an estimate. He replied, and we made an appointment, but he never arrived for it, nor did he give us any indication that he couldn't make it (no text message, call, or e-mail, etc.) A few days later he did call and admitted that he stood us up, so we arranged for him to come again. He came by, and inspected the fence, and then promised us a quick estimate for the job... but we never heard from him or Fortress Fence company again. They simply never followed through. I even sent him a nice follow-up e-mail asking him for the estimate, but he never replied to it. Save for two other local construction companies, my family and I have never been put off, ignored, and disregarded by a service professional like this. We think it's important to register this unfortunate interaction on Yelp so that no one else has to go through it.

Reliable and Honest We are very satisfied with Ranch Hands…read moreConstruction quality of work. They began by repairing termite rot and damage to our 1909 craftsman home in Santa Barbara. The deck fascia, supporting beams and headers, all needed to be repaired or replaced. After several bids from various general contractors, Jean-Claude with RHC gave the most thorough and comprehensive bid. He took the time to explain and break down the process of each scope of work. The 5 scopes of work were then priced separately allowing us to decide according to our budget and needs. Although not the cheapest bid, it was worth getting the job done right. The Ranch Hands Construction crew were competent, prompt, hard working and respectful. Obviously RHC take pride in their work, going the extra mile and paying attention to details. It was refreshing to see camaraderie and teamwork amongst their coworkers. After their initial work, we hired Ranch Hands to reroof a backyard cottage, and rebuild the railings on our front deck. Again, we were very impressed with RHC work. The jobs were all within the original estimate, and the work was completed in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend RCH for most any construction job. It's difficult to find honesty, reliability and quality work. Thank you for the help.
