Unfortunately, my experience with Fence Menders was very negative. Communication from the project manager, Chris, was consistently lacking, and several decisions were made without my approval. The price seemed high and the quality of workmanship was poor. As one example, the gate was painted just before rainfall, causing the paint to wash off; something that should have been easily anticipated and avoided. Additionally, the gate hinge broke first time using the gate, sprinkler pipes were broken. This company was chosen by a neighbor with whom I share a fence, not by me. Based on my experience, I would not use this company again and would not recommend them to others. read more

This is truly an amazing company! We wanted to remove an old rod iron fence which separated our backyard. This project definitely needed professionals. A friend recommended Fence Menders. Workers were polite, clean and respectful of our property. They worked swiftly. They patched and painted patio posts where the iron fence was anchored. No mess! Totally impressed . Thank you Fence Menders! Amy M , N Tustin read more

Waited for weeks for them to come out. Was told I was too far out of the way (I'm in Rancho Santa Margarita). Finally they came out after I called to say I was canceling to go with someone else. Our gate was stiff and sagging down after a few days of installation. They came out to fix it a couple months later, then after a couple of weeks it started getting stiff and sagging again. So it looks like I'm going to have to buy a new gate less than a year after Fence Menders installed one for almost $800. Very disappointing. read more

Incredible Family owned business! Jeff and his team came out and installed a beautiful double swing gate at my home! Took the time and made the call to correct my existing metal posts! Beautiful stained wood panels and well painted frame made the difference! I also challenged Jeff and their team to build me a custom steel canopy frame for my swimming pool bar! They completely went well over what I visualized! Painted, delivered and assisted in installing! Highly recommend Jeff and his Team!! read more

After calling several fence repair services, we went with Fence Menders. They came out and physically inspected our gates. Others just asked for photos. Ty called me and explained everything completely, checked in with me after a few days, and gave me options. The 2 workers arrived promptly, were polite, worked hard, cleaned up nicely. We are very pleased with this company. read more

When we contacted this company, Kevin Hall promptly came out on 3/26/21 to meet with us. We showed him the areas of our fence that needed repairs, along with the repairs needed for our 2 wrought iron gates. Our proposal for $1,310.00 arrived on 3/30/21. We signed it on 4/15/21 and returned it along with our check for the requested 50% deposit. On 7/19/21, after 3 months of numerous unreturned or unproductive phone calls, emails and text messages; we finally drove to their offices in an attempt to get them to schedule and do our work. We met with the owner, Ron Slight. After explaining everything to him (in great detail), including the fact that we had recently discovered that the repair work we needed and had originally discussed with Kevin Hall regarding our 2 gates was evidently (or inadvertently) not written up OR included on our proposal. Mr. Slight very kindly agreed with us that this was not acceptable, he apologized and gave us his assurances that we would be promptly and fully taken care of, including our 2 gates. One of the main issues causing Fence Menders delay was their claim that the 2 new bricks (which were included on our proposal), could not be located anywhere. Mr. Slight's grandson, (Jeff who now manages the company), emphaticalIy told me that after an extensive search at many building supply places, (including Thompson Building Materials), that to match my bricks, they would have to be custom made. Our home is a tract home, and I did not believe that the bricks were special. Therefore, on 8/2/21 I drove to Thompson Building Materials myself. I quickly and easily purchased 2 of the exact bricks that were needed! Fence Menders FINALLY arrived on Thursday, 8/5/21 to do the repairs. Kevin Hall stopped by to check on the 2 crew members doing the work. He said that a part was needed that had to be ordered for 1 of the gates. He told us that he had already ordered it; and that they would return another day to do the gates. He said that he indeed did remember having been shown the gates when he did our original proposal. Long story short, the crew did an excellent job on the repairs which they did. However, without even a phone call or any kind of an explanation, a new proposal arrived on 8/9/21 from Keven at Fence Menders for an additional $850.00, if we wished to have the work done which was needed on the gates. Needless to say, by now we had lost all trust, faith and patience with this unprofessional and dishonest company. They do not honor their written contracts or even the verbal assurances of the owner. Buyers beware!!! read more

Kevin came out to measure and figure out options for an outdoor banister/railing for our front steps. We were delayed by HOA requests, but Kevin made additional drawings to assist. The railings were ready for installation only to find irrigation pipes in the way. As soon as pipes were moved, Kevin had the installation team arrive the next day. Touch up paint was added and they look and feel sturdy and safe as well as a great addition. Can't say enough about professional and courteous team. read more

A friend of mine recommended Fence Menders for rod iron fence repair. As a result, I call the company and obtained an estimate. Upon comparing the two other estimates with that of Fence Menders it was clear that Fence Menders was a fair price. Upon the arrival of their crew, they went right to work and completed the task in no time at all. The job was finished I was contacted by the crew so that I can expect the work prior to them leaving. As I examined both gates that were repaired, they look brand-new. I must say the work exceeded my expectations. The work area was clean as though no work had been performed. All I can say is job well done top-notch and I'm certainly going to recommend them to my neighbors and friends. read more

I had a great experience with Fence Menders. I called for a quote on a wrought iron gate repair. Jeff came out within 3 days and coincidentally, an additional problem had occurred with another iron gate in the interim. I received the repair quote within 2 business days and sent my approval the next day. Three days later both gates were repaired. The crew that came out did a great job (this was custom work requiring welding, concrete, sleeving etc.) They were fast, polite, clean and efficient. The job was done faster than I expected. The work was top notch. Both gates look brand new. I did not quote anyone else but I felt the price was very fair for the work done. I would use Fence menders again in a heartbeat for any fence work I need. Great Guys! read more

Restoration and fence quality is ok. 1 star because manager Jeff not a good guy, very rude and disrespectful.

Extremely satisfied with my wrought iron swinging gate repair. Jeff, Pedro, and Jorge very polite and professional. Timely and reasonably priced. read more

We hired Fence Menders for a small repair at our shop. Somebody had cut through the fence to access our yard in the middle of the night so we needed a quick repair. The whole process, from finding them online, talking to Kylie (A+ customer service) to having Kevin over with the crew the following day for the affordable repair was great! read more

Poor workmanship never again will I use this company "over priced and shit work!! Shame on me for choosing this company!! read more

Workers showed up on time, friendly , did a great job on the install.. would highly recommend this company for any wrought iron job you might have.. read more

Pros: Friendly service. Quick work and flexible schedule for bid and producing fences/gates. Quick and friendly installation. Fairly tidy; however, I had to ask them to remove the paint that they left dripping down my bricks (not sure of they would have done this on their own), which was removed. I appreciate speed but not haste. Cons: Some issues with paint (not remedied), damage to stucco covered up by new gate (not remedied) and wrong locks used (this was remedied). Decent price, so it's what you'd expect when you go with the low bid. I'll have to make up the difference in price hiring someone else to touch up their work. Most of my fencing looks great--it's just the front gate (most visible) area I'm not pleased with. read more

Beware of this company. . .They may be a liability if you use them. Their sloppy work habits and disregard for jobsite safety resulted in damage to my vehicle. They would not step up and repair the damage to the vehicle that resulted from their sloppy work environment. . . read more

I had over 200' of wrought iron fencing that needed repair and repainting. After getting several quotes I landed on Fence Menders. They were not the least expensive but Jeff was the most professional, thorough and timely in his quote. A crew of 2-4 fabricated, prepped and painted for about 2 1/2 days. Their work was excellent and they delivered everything Jeff / Fence Menders promised and more. I recommend their services and would use them again. read more
