Clearly a skilled carpenter, the quality of his workmanship is very good.

He said that he works on all jobs with an assistant. To me this tells me he takes great pride in his work. Quality: His estimate was really well put together and very detailed. Unfortunately, we opted to go with a different company, but I can tell from the other reviews that his customers are happy with his work. Overall: I was really impressed by my meeting with Dan, the detailed estimate, pricing, and overall feeling of the company. I would definitely consider working with him in the future.

The team was professional, easy to work with, and delivered exactly what they promised. Highly recommend to anyone considering a garage door upgrade.

We walked away feeling like he cared about us as people making an investment not just another project. We will keep this company and Erik in mind for future projects or referrals.

We scheduled an estimate appointment for last Monday. The appointment seemed to go well. The estimator told me he'd send me the estimate by Tuesday afternoon. I didn't receive anything. Tuesday was New Year's Eve, so I just assumed that maybe the estimator hadn't realized that, and likely the company was closed for the holiday on Wednesday too. No biggie. But then Thursday and Friday came and went with still no estimate. I messaged the company to ask if they were still interested in submitting a quote, and that I hadn't received the estimate. Ray, the owner, said he'd contact the estimator and get back to me by Monday. It's now Wednesday, and I never heard from anyone again, nor ever received an estimate.

Nick's Fences and Gates did a fantastic job replacing our wood fence and gate. Communication was…read morequick and their pricing was very reasonable. They were able to fit us in earlier than expected, and even with a late start, Nick and his assistant stayed late to finish everything in one day. That level of commitment really stood out. They walked us through material options (we chose redwood pickets), and the finished fence looks beautiful. Their attention to detail was excellent, from precise measurements to clean trimming. They also made sure our gate met hot tub safety requirements with a self-closing hinge and 5-foot latch position, and even added a smart privacy slat improvement we hadn't considered. We've already had neighbors compliment the fence. Highly recommend!

We purchased or home before it was built. Our builder installed wooden side gate was already…read morerepaired once and now was sagging, warping and just getting old. It was time to replace it with something sturdier and less likely to warp, shrink, fade. I did a lot of research on what materilas would best hold up to the brutal So Cal summers we have. I also had to keep within the Architectural guidelines of our HOA for fences. I found a company in Orange, CA, called SoCal Gates. I established contact with the owner, Ray, who is a really knowledgeable and personable guy to work with. We scheduled an appointment for him to come to our home to show us color samples of the composite material we would choose for him to use in our steel framed gate. Ray arrived, and had us look at the different colored composite samples while he took his measurements. He then went over with us the color choices and which ones would intergrate best with our home's exterior colors, including the tiled roof and front entry door and garage door. He explained how he visualized the gate would look, once mounted. We agreed on the materials and and the price. He mentioned that his installation pricing included the removal of the gate from the cinder block wall it was attached to, but did not include the removal of the old fence post or the haul away fo the old fence. After hiring another fence company to remove the fence post, back fill with concrete and haul away all of the old fence, Ray told he would've done it had I specifically asked him, for an extra charge. In fact, he told me how to remove the old post myself, so that gave me the impression he would prefer to just to install the gate with the old fence gone and the area prepped for his installation. After the HOA approved my gate plan, It only took a few weeks for Ray to build our gate and to schedule a date and time for the installation. On the day of the installation, I watched Ray assemble and install my agte, He is meticulous and thoughtful throughout his installation process. He showed me how to change out the composite planks if I ever needed to, and how to program our electronic lockest. We are very happy with out new sturdy, side gate. I would recommend anyone needing a new steel framed gate with composite planking to contact Ray.
