Poor quality workmanship led to problems within the first year of having my wooden privacy fence installed by Doug CHRISTIAN. Now, after less than seven years since it was finished, it is falling down, pickets warped, posts breaking off at ground level. I even took what I felt was the decent action I should take. After calling him MANY times, he finally returned a call. Very sarcastically, he asked how old it was......I thought around nine years, but my wife found proof of it being near seven. I called him and asked him to come by and give me an estimate, to which he said he'd be by and look at it at a specific time......no show. Then I found a bid on my porch of $1200. To replace three posts which were obviously poor quality to begin with and mend ten pickets that are falling off. He indicated putting screws in them this time when he originally used poor quality nails from a gun. I actually had to check them regularly because even the first year, many were loosening to the point of nearly coming off. This privacy fence cost me nearly ten thousand dollars for the total job of almost five-hundred feet back then. He was paid in cash so I wondered if it ever was claimed on his taxes....just wondering seeing as how he has not even returned my call back to discuss his bid....I've left him many messages to that effect. My recommendation for anyone is to not call on Doug CHRISTIAN for your fence needs. I definitely will not allow him on my place and have taken off his sign on my fence that he nailed on and it, too, was even falling off!?!!! read more

My wife and I requested to have our old, wooden privacy fence removed that I had put in years ago, as it was rotting away. You can prolong a wooden fence with a lot of oil treating, but materials in the Texas heat and wet will twist and rot away after some time, and I had let it go just trying to manage our lives at the house, so I was expecting an expensive job to replace it. This time, we opted for a 6' chain link fence. Doug came out and gave us an estimate which was very reasonable, and he went the extra mile given our circumstances with our son who requires extra care and attention because of his autism. He even worked around his outdoor schedule! By the time he woke up to go play outside in the morning, they had carted the old fence away and installed the new one! I couldn't believe it. A year later, our son learned to climb like nobody's business, and we were concerned that he might wander off, or get hurt, so we had Doug come back, and once again: Very kind, very professional, a reasonable price and a solution. He installed an angled topper with tight wire across the top of the fence and solved our problem. Now our son can play outside in safety. My experience with Christian fencing, honestly, was an excellent experience. My wife and I (and our son!) thank you, and I will call you in the future for all my fencing needs! read more

If I could give a negative stars.. I would give 59 negative. Most unagreeable man ever. I got a quote of 1900. He showed up...agression in speech and work. My yard was for dogs. Why is tight line, a foot off the ground? I asked, he threw my check back at me, and drive off! Left my site, and his crap everywhere. I contacted city, about possession of tools. He came at night, and took it. Worst experience Ever, of someone I was happy to pay. Horrible read more

Unprofessional. Doug Christian literally hung up on me during our conversation while I was asking him questions.
