Borg Fence & Design installed artificial turf in the back yard in 2012. Over the summer, there were a couple sections of the turf that had "melted." They did replace the turf. However, the turf has once again "melted." I have been calling and leaving messages for Dave LaVelle since Dec. 2013.....The person responsible for defects/warranty. To date, Jan. 14, I have not received a return call. I have also on numerous occasions requested a copy of my receipt from the original install day and the replacement turf receipt. Again, I have received nothing. I am very disappointed with the product that cost me about $3600.00! U should see my backyard. Very tiny. I will not recommend this company or product. P.S. I was told that this turf is the same that is used in the COWBOYS football stadium. Hhhhmmmm, and that turf does not melt? I was also informed that there is a 10yr. warranty on this turf and there will be no odor from the pets. NOT! Can I just get a refund? What a waste of money. Beyond disappointed. read more

The fence that Lifescaping installed on our property is beautiful.  The wood quality, color composition, and craftsmanship are excellent. After many fencing company interviews and reading lots of customer's reviews, I felt overwhelmed with trying to find a fencing company to meet the vision and budget that I had for the project.  At first, I was ambivalent about selecting Lifescaping, but dealing with their Designer, Ronnie, who was professional, Knowledgeable, and patient sealed the deal.  Ronnie's e-mail and text follow-ups were always timely and informational giving me the confidence that he would do a detailed job of coordinating our fencing project.  Once I decided on Lifescaping, they started immediately setting the fencing project in motion including scheduling PGE to come out within a week to mark the property's gas lines.  The Lifescaping schedulers were efficient always notifying me right of way of any schedule changes.  The craftsmen were pleasant, on time, demoed the old fence and installed the new one within about five hours.  All issues encountered were addressed and adjustments made in a timely manner.  The cost of this lovely structure was reasonable and from negotiations to installation, including some procrastination on my part, and weather considerations, the whole process took about three months.  I highly recommend Lifescaping and will not hesitate to do business with this company again in the future. Thanks again for a job well done! read more

Ray bid my small job replacing a gate and three panels in my fence and came in the least expensive. Since it was a small job, I expected the "B" team and was hoping for the best. The job they did was beautiful. Even the hardware on the gate was a big upgrade from the little latch we had before. If this crew was the "B" team, their A team must be awesome. read more

update: the president of the company called and apologized, today oct 20th a new crew came out and fixed all of the pickets 41 of them..i can not thank lifescaping company enough for their commintent and making sure i was happy..great job !!! thanks again read more

We received bids from a few fence companies, then a friend recommended Lifescaplng Outdoors after recently having their fences replaced and being exceptionally pleased. The bid was competitive and the process handled professionally. Ray provided a timely bid and when we were prepared to move forward presented great documentation to support the process. Juan and his crew did a fantastic job. They effectively demolished and removed the old fence with minimal impact on plantings, then installed a great looking new fence: redwood quality is very good. Upon completion, the crew cleaned everything up, totally turnkey. Had a minor issue with a gate and they were on it and completed the repair within days. We had a great experience and highly recommend Lifescaping Outdoors services. read more

The recent Bay area storms blew down 50 feet of our 25 (plus) year old back fence. Borg Fence & Deck was referred by our local El Cerrito Home Depot. I was contacted within a couple of days to arrange an estimator visit. Estimator showed up at the promised time. I got the estimate on a pretty quick turn around. (Although fence estimates are not that complicated.) Price was a little more than double what I remember paying for materials alone when I built the original fence. I thought that was pretty reasonable in the circumstances. I approved the price and a couple of alternates, Borg immediately called back to schedule the install. The guys showed up on time, with everything they needed on the truck and built the new fence in about half a day. I made a deal with them to haul away the old fence and recycle the waste for a reasonable extra charge. New fence looks great and I'm sure it will still be here in 25 years, although I don't think I will. read more

Thank God I didn't read the Yelp Reviews prior to hiring Bork Fencing and Decking. I probably wouldn't have used them. The reviews do all seem to be one star or five stars. Ours was definitely five stars. The estimate and work were exactly as described. The crew of two showed up exactly on time and worked for six straight hours without a break 'til they were finished. The redwood was hand selected. They rejected pieces I would have used. The craftsmanship was superior. We had two huge gates installed. Their latch hardware was top notch and the gates open perfectly. The guys cleaned up perfectly. Both my neighbor and I (we shared the project) felt the prices were reasonable for such quality work. We would both recommend and use them again. read more

Had a scheduled appointment for them to come out. I took time off work for this appointment and they never showed. Today I get a call and am told the bullshit excuse of the new computer system didn't tell the guy of my appt. Right. That's why I had an automated email with the correct appointment date and time. So she offers me an appt on Friday where I would again have to miss work. No. She didn't even attempt to make this right. I'm sorry but they should have made every attempt to come out to my home this evening to correct this. This company is poor customer service oriented. You will not be getting my money! read more

Horrible workmanship and horrible Customer Service. We payed to have them replace three damaged post and approx 90 feet of shared neighbor fence and replace our gate. When they arrived i spoke to the Lead/Foreman and showed him the three post that i needed replaced. He said they were going to place a new 4x4 in front of the damaged post and bolt them together. I told him that i was not paying for that and wanted the old post removed and replaced with a new one. He said that's not how they do it and that he would contact his boss. I went to work never received a call and when i returned home i saw that they totally disregarded what i had asked for and they bolted a new post in front of the damaged post. I also made it very clear that i wanted them to reject any bad lumber that would leave large gaps and again i saw that several of the boards should have never been used. They also left such large gaps in the boards at my gate that you can see straight into the back yard from the street. We then called them and addressed our concerns. A couple of weeks later a crew came out and began removing the boards to the gate. The finished job looked ever worse with now huge uneven gaps at the bottom of the gate. There excuse to my wife was they didn't have the right size lumber and would return when they got some more material. However, they never returned. I then called and left a message for Adrian Borg the Owner. I waited a few days with no response and then called again and he answered the phone, I argued with Adrian and he defended his position with excuses. I got more angry before we both agreed to calm down and talk. I told him that i sent them pictures of the aforementioned and he said he needed new pics. I then sent him new pictures and thought he would return a call or at least text me to say he received everything he needed and has schedule me for the repairs. Instead i got crickets!! no call, no text nothing. So, my weekend was spent tearing down my gate and replacing it myself and then painting it for a second time. Oh, and after this review if your not convinced that you need to use someone else to replace your fence at least make sure that they use the right size nails. Maybe they ran out of the proper nails to as several that i pulled were only 1 1/4 inches long and barley secured the fence boards. read more

This review was initially for Borg Fence - Julie Borg - and I accidentally clicked on the incorrect Borg option - my bad...

The folks at Lifescaping are awesome! The fence they built was beautiful and sturdy and their customer service was above and beyond. I had scheduled our install and came out to view the progress. The crew had removed the old fence and only then did I notice some very invasive tree trunks that would surely cause problems in the future. I called Elizabeth and Ray Borg and they jumped on the problem immediately. I asked for a delay on the installation until I could address the roots even though the crew had already unloaded the truck. The company rearranged their schedule, the crew reloaded the materials and I had a new install date in short order. On top of that they honored the original quote even though I had caused the delay. I will use them again and highly recommend this company to anyone looking for landscape needs. read more

Best fence builders in the area. High quality work for the right price. Need I say more?

Lifescaping is AWESOME!! Moved to a newly built home---unfortunately, the fence was a shambles. Called Lifescaping Outdoors again! They had repaired parts of my fence at my old house. This time, I needed a whole new fence. You just can't beat the professional service, the incredible quality or the gorgeous end result. From the owner (Adrian), to the staff (Kriss and Elizabeth), to my installer (Omar), I couldn't ask for a better team. Spend the extra couple of dollars and get top notch work. THANK YOU GUYS! read more

Professional, fast, and friendly. Ask for Alvero and his crew. They did an amazing job in record time. We had a board-on-board redwood fence installed. The installation is top notch and the experience was exceptionally pleasant. We will be hiring them again for additional projects soon. read more

Workmanship on retaining wall was fine but they left a huge mess behind! They ripped out drip lines, filled rock walkway and decorative rocks covered in 3 inches of clay, mud and dirt and barely cleaned up. They detached electrical outlet and left dangling wide open and sprayed with water tripping the breaker box. For 3 days it continued to trip the breaker box until it dried out and I could re-assmble. I called to provide feedback and was immediately connected to President of the company who promised to get back to me with a solution. 4 days later, still no call back. I went ahead and cleaned up everything on my own and solved the breaker issue. Good workmanship but not so good at caring for your surrounding landscape or electrical! read more

My fence was constructed in April 2013. The slightest wind and boards go flying out. I won't post any more because Adrain has threatened to sue me for a bad review. read more

We have had two experiences with Lifescaping Outdoors, both were fence installations. We did our homework and checked the reviews and found only three, all of which were favorable. The small number of reviews surprised us since the company has been in business since 1978. Later it came to light that the company had recently changed its name, so the majority of the reviews were under the old name and the reviews were not so positive. The first fence installation was done on a rental house. We moved all the vegetation from the fence line as instructed. This was of no consequence since the workers had no regard for the vegetation in the ground which were trampled. The fence came out nicely, but the gate has been a nightmare since installation. The company came out for repair after a month at which time they replaced the bracing on the back of the gate. The gate still did not close properly. At the next repair attempt they adjusted the screw on the bottom of the gate. Again the repair did not solve the problem.The worker did tell me at the time that he thought the hinge was not in the correct position. He noted this in his report. The gate still does not close properly and I have been waiting for three weeks for someone in operations to schedule an appointment for the third repair. The second fence installation was done at our primary residence, so we contacted Dave for an estimate and made it clear from the beginning the importance of having the cement laid so the water ran away from the posts. This was done before all the issues with gate on the rental property. This fence was installed in September 2017. On this property the gate has not been an issue, the problems came with the fence posts. Even after making it clear to Dave and three times to the foreman that ran the job, the cement was not laid as we had requested.They did so on the back fence, but did not follow thru on the remainder of the fence. It took them two more service calls to complete the job correctly. Each time a different crew arrived to do the repairs. The aggravation did not end there. When I contacted the office I asked numerous times to speak to the owner. I was told several times by the office staff that he was in a meeting or out of town and that she would pass the problem on to operations. When I finally got thru to operations and ask to speak to the owner, he said he was the owner. This was Adrian. He was argumentative and down right rude to me. When I tried to explain to him my frustration with the lack of response and failure to get the repairs done properly, his response to me was "I don't want to hear your feelings, just tell me what needs to be done". The experience as a whole has not been positive and leaves us no choice but to not recommend Lifescaping Outdoors to friends, neighbors or family. read more

Our fence is fine, however if your estimate shows that "yes seal and protect fence" and "yes both sides" are checked make sure there is a dollar amount on the line. Both boxes were checked on BOTH our estimates and so we went with them, because even though their bid was higher than the other two estimates we received, we thought the price included sealing both sides of the fence. Three weeks of e-mail went ignored by their Contract Administrator, and then when we were contacted by one of the owners, we were told that because there was no dollar amount on the line it wasn't part of our agreement. This seems very misleading and I am disappointed. In the end, the company offered to let us buy their sealant at cost, but we elected to go it alone. read more

I have never posted on yelp before but felt the need to because of some of the negative reviews of this company. I was nervous because of some of the reviews so I was ready to really be all over them and watch them like a hawk. However, we had the best two guys (can't remember their names). This was a shared fence with a rental and we are the homeowners so it was very important to us that we got the fence we wanted. The head guy (the one who spoke english) understood the situation and did everything we asked. They were careful not to break the plants and tree that were staying in place. They were done in one day. I agree that the owner can be a little gruff but he is a contractor afterall and maybe should think about retiring. He did talk us into their steel posts (for a very nominal extra charge) which we think will be better in the long run and did extend the warranty on the fence. I would certainly have them do work for us again. read more

Poor customer service and wasting customer time, I don't thing this company will do good work on they job. I had a very bad experience about this company. I had a estimate schedule for two hours window for the morning between 8:00 to 10:00 am. So I schedule to take time off the the estimate. The date before the estimate, the office call me if the estimator can come a day early between 10:00 to 11:00 am, I agreed. At 10:30 am, the customer service all me again said they need to change the schedule for 1:00 to 2:00 but my had already fix my time. So I want stay on my original schedule for the next day. On next day, I wait from 8:00 to 10:00 no one show up. I called the office, they said they will be there between 10:30 to 11:00 am. Until, 11:00 am, they called and said they don't want to the job. read more

As new homeowners with 2 small children we wanted a fence installed around our pool. Referred by Home Depot, Borg was the cheapest quote we got (that should have been a clue). Anyhow, as we live in the Bay Area and they are located in the Sac area it took a few weeks for them to find a time their crew would be in our area. Once here, they installed the fence quickly and left little mess. Immediately, we were dissatisfied with the locking mechanism they used. Although we were told it would be "child proof," it was just a simple fence latch. One that any child on a chair could open. Within a few weeks, the self-closing mechanism stopped working. Again, b/c they are located in Sac it took almost 6 weeks for them to send a crew to try and repair the problem. B/c they couldn't figure out how to fix the installed springs, they added a 3rd spring which they told me "is not supposed to go with this type of gate, b/c it might be 'too strong.'" Anyhow, a few months later they self-closing mechanism again stopped working. When I called again(it took 3 separate calls to get a response), they told me that the 12 month warranty was 2 weeks expired, they had already addressed the issue once and if I wanted them to fix it, it would cost $150. Ah, no thanks. They get 2 stars for being the cheapest, but as this was meant to be a safety fence for our children, I would definitely look at other installers (especially if you live in the Bay Area and want timely service) if a quality safety fence is your desire. I guess the adage that you get what you pay for holds true! read more

I am a lot luckier than the other reviewers. I made an appointment for a deck estimate through Home Depot. My appointment was scheduled for 5 days after the call, however nobody called or showed up. I called Borg company and was told that they called me the previous day to re-schedule, which was a lie. They had my cell phone number and they never called or left a message. To quote one of the other reviewers, "Girl A" who answered the phone said that the estimator can't come and that's that. I called Home Depot and escalated to Customer Service, who told me that the only solution is for them to re-schedule with the same company because they are their only supplier in my area. I replied that I would never trust them with a job after proving incapable to meet their commitment for an estimate and I asked them if they prefer the supplier to the customers, and of course they said no but still did nothing about it. At my insistence the representative finally agreed to leave a message to their District Manager, who is supposed to call me next week. One of the things I plan to discuss with him are the reviews posted here, which nobody at Home Depot seems to read. I am surprised that none of the people who posted reviews here went to court. I do advise everybody to file complaints with Home Depot at the highest levels until they apply more serious criteria when selecting sub-contractors. read more

Price has doubled since 6 months ago. Doesn't return emails !

I called them and tried to schedule an estimate and a woman with a loud voice that sounded like a warden in a ladies prison answered the phone. She asked me a lot of questions that had nothing to do with what I wanted done. She kept putting me on hold then answered to let me know when she could fit me in. I guess she thinks no one works for a living because the only time she offered was during working hours. When I explained I had to work at the times she offered she said then if I wanted an estimate it would have to be two weeks in advance. She sounded very unprofessional and since she was intent on having me jump through all of her hoops I decided to contact another company. read more

Unreliable...It's been at least a month since the estimator came to look at my property for a new fence installation. But still no estimate. They don't want my business and they probably don't want yours either. It's probably a good thing because the estimator was the least knowledgeable and informative of all the companies I've had come out. read more

I had Borg install two gates on my property and I was extremely dissatisfied with every aspect of the transaction - from sale to install. First, they sent out a sales rep to discuss with me what it is I wanted to have done. He seemed knowledgeable enough and assured me that there would be no problem getting what I wanted accomplished. He also mentioned a few minor accents and details that would be done to enhance the final appearance of the completed job. All-in-all it sounded very promising and I contracted the job through him and he wrote up the plans and the price. Unfortunately, Borg sales reps are just there to get the sale and will say whatever it takes to make you sign the paper. Later, another Borg rep called me to arrange payment and a start date. I specifically expressed to him that the sales rep and I discussed many details about the job and that I hoped whoever came to actually do it would be on the same page as him. I was assured that this would be the case and that their installers are highly qualified and valued employees of the company. When the day came and the workers showed up at my house for the install, they weren't even sure what they were supposed to do. They had an unorganized load of gate/fence material in the back of their truck, including leftovers from another job, and didn't know if they were supposed to just install gates or gates and a fence, or what, and needed me to explain it to them. Furthermore, they spoke very little broken English and I had a very difficult time trying to communicate with them. In addition to having to explain the job to them, we needed to go over a few things throughout the job, for example, when they were asking me for my preference on things that could be done differently depending on what I wanted. It's not that I have anything against people who don't speak English, but if you are going to have to communicate with people who come out to install a company's product, the company should hire people who you can communicate with. The icing on the cake was that when the workers first got there and took measurements, they told me that one of the gates couldn't be installed because of fitment issues. I then came up with a possible solution and the workers liked the idea so they proceeded with the install, which ended up being successful. Besides that, the workers themselves weren't too bad but they were pretty messy and left behind a lot of scraps that I had to clean up myself. To top it off, the gates seem flimsy and cheap compared to others that I've seen in my neighborhood. I will NEVER do business with Borg again and regret ever doing so. read more

Two years ago I had Home Depot refer me to Borg for a fence install. I was (stupidly) not on site the day of install. When I returned, the work site was left a mess, cement for posts was sloppily poured and a good foot across in diameter, and the wood frame for the concrete was left in place . They also did not properly bolt the track to the driveway and left exposed metal that could cut one of my dogs or my child. It was very difficult to get ahold of anyone to fix it and there was little empathy. It was eventually remedied. Fast forward two years to this Monday. I have an irrigation leak. The irrigation company that came out to look at the leak found that Borg poured concrete for the track straight over my irrigation lines. Perhaps that led to the leak. Maybe not. But the new problem is that one can't replace irrigation when there is cement over it. So now I have to have my yard trenched and irrigation rerouted to the sprinkler. I have called Borg five times since Monday (it's now Thursday). Supervisor Dave and owner Adrian refuse to contact me. To the other people who are dealing with this, I finally got some movement by calling Home Depot Resolution department at (800) 654-0688. The funny thing is that property damage claims must come from the company itself but they refuse to call me back. HD is helping me resolve the issue. Also, when Kiara from HD called, the supervisor was on the phone within minutes to conference call with me. Now I am waiting to hear from the owner. The one who was at lunch yesterday when I called but has been out of the country this week, (as per Dave). Will edit if a resolution is found. AVOID THIS COMPANY. read more

We need to erect a fence to capture in some of the usable space in the front yard. I decided to go with Borg fencing who contracts with Home Depot which had the best price within our budget. We had set what seemed like a solid schedule three weeks earlier on a day that's most convienient for us. On the week, rather 2 days before the build Borg had ordered the wrong size redwood and had to reschedule another week and a half on a Tuesday. Me and my girl both work 40 hours a week and this was the most inconvienient day of it all but we went along with it. The builders bascially was left alone to do it all in one day. Long story short, they did a terrible job. The fence nailing was all but in a straight line. A board had missing nails on one end and nails protruding the posts. I had a HD rep and Adrian the owner, to come and inspect the job inquiring that no one did a final inspection and we have to rush home that day to sign off the job-in the dark. Not professional at all. They both saw the deficies and are willing to fix the problem. The original build date was June 1st, it's now July and we are still dealing with this mess. We have a propsal of the fixes to them and awaiting for their response. Home Depot needs to monitor more on the quality of products this outfit is producing. I do not recomend anyone to use them until I see what they come back with. Hopefully I can add another star to this review. read more

This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. From the office staff to the President Adrian Borg. Who was rude, unprofessional and yelling over me when I brought up that my install has taken over 2 weeks,that no one returns calls and that no one knows the schedule so that you can set up a finish install appointment. Also, the work crew stopped by my house last Saturday without confirming an appointment with me and I was out with my family . When I brought that up to Mr president, he lied and told me he called me himself. After yelling over me and the facts I was sharing with him about his company's inadequacies, I told him I wanted to speak with someone else in his office to set up my appointment and not him and he responded that he was the president so I would not be getting a call from anyone else. So I hung up. Still unresolved with a gate not installed and gaps needing to be addressed. I will alert my neighbors in my Neighborhood Blog which reaches over 800 homes in Folsom, not to use this company for sure... read more

See all

No support after product is out of Warrantee even though willing to pay for it. There are more than the just appearance when selecting a gate then how nice the guys were who installed it and a web site - when you drop some money on a high end gate designed for hopefully a life time the test of a good company is will they around a few years later when you do have an issue. In my case I was very please working with Lifescaping formally Borg and the end result. Now yes 3 years later there is a problem with the gate its sagging a little. When they presented me with the initial design I even went from 4 x 4 to 5 x 5 steel post but still had some sagging. Yes things settle and I am good with that, I did not think to look to see initially if there was some way to shim or adjust the gate as things settle. So you work with a good company and expect them to have compliance built in so allow for some settling. Looking good is one thing long term performance is another. The real problem is I called Lifescaping and talked to a real nice person and said basically go pound sand,(ok not in those exact words but that is what I heard) I said I did not expect this for free or be under warrantee, I just want their team to come out and fix what they started. She said it would be a minimum of $2500 to look at it - I said the gate cost me $4k. The idea here is you learn from your mistakes, design a gate to include adjustments. If this can happen to me I am sure it can happen to someone else. I am not sure whos better out there but I try to select a reputable place who can support me down the road and again I will gladly pay for the work. Buyer be were. I was given their name through Home Depot and no surprise they are no longer associated with Home Depot and changed their name. Thanks for letting me vent, the gates not fixed but I feel better. read more

I was doing an online search for fencing companies, because I needed to replace a portion of my back fence. So I get a phone call from Borg -- to be clear, THEY CALLED ME. So we set up a date and time when they were supposed to come out to look at the fence and give me an estimate. The day came and I made sure to be home that afternoon. I waited and waited (missed my class at the gym), but they never showed up. They never called. It's been well over a week and I still haven't heard anything from them. I would never do business with a company that is this unreliable. read more

Four trips to get it right. Never enough material although they are contracted through Home Depot which is appx 1/2 mile from my house. Nothing measured, just 'eyeballed'. Nail gun happy. Required my constant supervision or shortcuts taken, I.e. Using old 13 yo existing posts and a 2 x 4 nailed to the neighbors fence to start a run of fencing. Broken concrete was 'fixed' by dumping cement around a post and wetting it. I had to mound it around the post and smooth it out. My self a person of color they tried the no English approach, didn't work with me. I still tipped the workers because the don't get paid jack, it's not their fault they are untrained and undersupplied. There are STILL flaws but I will fix them myself. I have one more side (back) shared with a neighbor to go, A.J. Fencing .....hello? read more

We contracted The Home Depot Home Services to install new fencing and gates for our new home in Holmby Hills back in August 2014. They subcontracted the job to Borg Fence & Decks. They said it would take 4-6 weeks because of a custom metal gate they would need to fabricate. We had also contracted for 8' feet high boards on the fence part. After much waiting, they gave us an installation date 6 weeks later and on the day they brought only 6' high boards and we told them we had contracted 8 footers. It was a struggle all the way. There was no coordination between the estimator and the actual company contracted to do the job, Borg Fence & Decks. Instead of 1 day for the install of the fence, they took 3 weeks to finally complete that part of the job. With regard to the metal gate, the supervisor from Borg Fence & Decks told us that the estimator had made a mistake and that they couldn't put one up as he had estimated. Then he said that they would put a different construction one up that would look the same. It's been over 3 months and several calls and still no gate. This has been the worse experience with a contractor we've ever had and would never do business with Borg Fence & Decks and The Home Depot Home Services again. There were many other issues and headaches too long to metion here. read more

I had an estimate and then, the customer service was so incredibly bad, I cancelled the work. I then contacted Ray Borg and he was responsive. Dave was the worst. Never called back and the customer service was horrible. The job was beautiful. I contacted them about some issues that needed to be repaired and no response about corrections. I deal only with Ray but I think he is probably very busy. I do not think I would recommend Borg Fence despite the nice work. They are expensive but if the customer service was decent, it would make a difference. They can't be bothered to respond to the customer. It is always that Dave will call you back since he never seems to have time to come to the phone. Dave never calls back. read more

Nice fence work - but... was charge $600 more - i had asked for wooden posts - but steel post was installed. So watch out and get the Total before accepting the offer (they give you a breakdown BUT not a total) - and though in the check box it says wooden 4x4 posts, they have the steel post option. read more

After moving in to our new home, my fiance and I went to home depot to get a new fence put in for our back yard and drive way. I was pleasantly surprised to see Borg Fences show up to do the appraisal. Jarvis was very personable, and gave us some great advice and ideas on what we could do to the gates for the drive way. On the day of the install the crew was very prompt and finished everything by the late afternoon. Our fence and gates look great, and are the talk of the neighborhood! Our experience with Jarvis and the crew from Borg was great, I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

I was very disappointed with the lack of ethics and professionalism shown by the Borg employees. My suggestion is to do your research to locate a reputable company for your project. Don't waste your time with Borg! read more

I left yesterday morning to an old, ugly, beat up fence that was a stiff breeze away from toppling over. I arrived home last night to find a brand new, gorgeous fence. Borg really blew us away with the awesome job they did, and (according to my wife and neighbors) the crew could not have been any nicer. I have to agree as I received two calls yesterday confirming some of the specifications that we had added to the order. I'm thrilled with Borg and would recommend them to anyone and everyone! Thanks! read more

We had all our fencing built by Borg quite a few years ago. No problems except that they faced the 4x6 posts the wrong direction. Then we had a new section added. That section continues to become loose and wobbly when the wind blows. We had it fixed by Borg once. They never presented us with a bill so I thought they were taking responsibility for the poor workmanship. Months later, someone called and threatened to put a lien on our home if we didn't pay the bill! We have NEVER been threatened with that before! Once they finally sent the bill, of course we paid it right away. Now the fence is once again flapping in the wind. We won't be calling this company to fix it. read more

I recently had a white vinyl picket fence installed by Borg and while I was worried based on some of the negative reviews from Yelp, I was overall very pleased with the outcome. I received a bid from another fencing company as well and it was literally twice as high as Borg, putting it way out of our price range. We were installing the fence because we live on a busy street in Redwood City and didn't want our toddler to open the front door and be able to just run out onto the road. We wanted a vinyl fence because there is zero upkeep and we liked the look of them. Leigh gave us the estimate and helped work with us to keep it within our budget ,and then Dave managed the project. The fence looks amazing and it was installed in less time than they originally thought. They showed up on time and did a bang-up job. The only slight hiccup is that the vinyl company didn't send them enough caps for the top of the fence, so we had to wait a week or so until more came in, but once they arrived the guys were there installing them within a few days and we weren't charged for the fence until it was 100% complete. Overall a really great experience. I would hire them again. read more
