    Steve and his team replaced 177 ft of new fencing for me. He showed up when he said he would and always keep me in the loop on what was going on. This job had to be coordinated with two different apartment owners and Steve stepped in when I was having a problem with one of them. THANK YOU Steve. The job was completed on schedule and I have no hesitation in recommending Steve to others. In fact, I have already shared his info with family and friends.

    The worst business to use for fences. I went to the California State Licensing Board to get a partial refund for the bad fence he installed. All the time he kept saying it was up to the CSLB standards. I've waited a year and finally received the payment. Beware he lives on the east coast so if/when you do have problems you won't ever see him again. He blames others for his work and keeps saying he's got almost 20 years of experience doing this type of work. I would be embarrassed if I did this after 20 years... Now I have to find someone to repair/replace this fence and no one will touch it. As you can see in the photos he couldn't be bothered to put the top rails on the fence posts.

    Everything was black/new when installed but NOTHING is flush, squared and screws offset &/or not fully attached!

    Where to begin... Wanting sections facing the street to be replaced with identical design and being told, "they don't cut wood like that any more..."? Puddle of cement in the middle of the backyard? Had to break that up and rake it up. "Installing" gate latch components so that when you push on the release, the whole [unsecured] latch release just slides out? I had to fix that myself, too. Now that I think of it, I recall that he returned from _______ and showed me the locking "hardware" for the fence. It should have been a clue to me that he'd obviously picked the cheapest bits he could get. I had to decline them and ask that he get something more substantial. Something that could be LOCKED and that wouldn't give way if the wind blew too hard. I mainly employed him to replace a good neighbor fence, but within DAYS of completion, I discovered 12+ newly installed boards had split, big-time; 1"-2" WIDE splits running ranging up to 12" LONG! **[Insert your expletive of choice here]** I called him about this and instead of offering to stop by, he said "That isn't possible." When I implored him to come and review this issue, he insisted that I send him photos first. THEN he came by. "Huh... that's not supposed to happen." [Ya think?!!!] He ended up replacing them but still missed some smaller fence pieces even though I'd marked them. So you see, I've really been forgiving with several issues. I've TRIED to make them work...but now? Now, I HAVE to replace his "gate"?!!?!!! The photos I took today, 10/2/18, speak for themselves, folks. Angles not set flush with wood. Screws inserted at awkward, indirect angles. I should have reviewed it closer when done but I was so upset about the "split rail fence" that I didn't order that I overlooked the gate fiasco altogether. Every year since it was put in (3-4 years ago?) I've had to enlarge the latch area for clearance of the locking bolt and hollow out/deepen the security latch slot because of increasing sag. I have to force it open/closed several times until the base of the gate was "sanded" by the concrete enough to force open...it's THAT bad. Ignore the rust as that's common for 3-4 year old outdoor hardware exposed to all the rain fall in this lush region... right? Maybe it's me....but it takes more than "showing up when he said he would" to put those YELP STARS up there. I read the other reviews here and have to wonder...where was MY "quality work?" Where is MY "quality materials?" He who is faithful in small things is faithful in larger things. I really TRIED to just let this all go but now that I cannot even open the gate he built/installed...I'm...upset. I'm tired of sawing, sanding, planing and tweaking the gate I paid several hundreds of dollars for, just to get it to open/close! I must now PAY to UNDO what this guy did. CRAP!

    Straight and true!

David was the estimator and main contact person while Zerafin and his team did the tear down, haul away and construction. 40 feet of new redwood fence and an added gate. I opted for the steel posts upgrade over the pressure treated 4x4 wood posts as it literally was a small price to pay for even longer term reliability. Thank you! Phenomenal experience.

I looked up local fence repair on Yelp and filled out the quote form on their website. Within minutes I got a call from them! (I must have gotten very lucky with my timing. Please don't expect unrealistic instant replies every time.) They were available to go out there that day to take a look and give me an estimate. Being a shared fence we coordinated with my neighbor. Kingdom is very professional. They had a formal agreement, an itemized invoice, and you can pay through Intuit Quickbooks online. You pay a 10% deposit before the start and the rest at the end of the project. Be aware there is a 3% charge for using card. But you can use ACH to avoid it. They also split the invoice between my neighbor and I. The day of the project start they recommended using steel posts instead of wooden posts due to the weight of the panels. No additional charge. They even took the time to paint the steel posts on my side black to match the panels! I called on Wednesday and by Saturday the fence was repaired! Thank you Kingdom Gates and Fences!

Everyone I contacted was either too busy or said our job wasn't worth their time. Our yards were in the process of being completely redone, so I decided to wait until the landscapers were done to try again. And this time, I found Best Wood Fences. I reached Ary Barragan by phone one afternoon and was immediately impressed with his professionalism. I sent him some photos and approximate measurements and later that day he sent an estimate, which was very reasonable. He said he could start the following week and promised to come by a few days later to see the site in person, even though we are about 30 minutes away. Two days later, he stopped by and was just as professional in person as he was on the phone. Over the next 3-4 days, we wanted to change the fence's design and each time he happily and quickly provided a revised estimate so that there would be no surprises. He started and finished the job as promised. The quality is impeccable and the finished product is the cherry on top of our new yard. We're in real estate and I told Ary that I would happily recommend him to clients & friends. I wish I would have found him when I started my search, shortly after the cement contractor removed our old fence. Ary is definitely worthy of all 5 Stars. I wish other contractors treated their craft and their customers with the same professionalism and care.

From beginning to end the experience was great. I'd reached out to multiple companies, planning to take numerous bids, but amazingly found that few were unresponsive. FCR on the other hand was quick to respond to my inquiry on their website Contact page and were quick to set up the estimate appointment. The downside was I needed to wait two weeks. In the meantime I met the Project Manager from another company and was pleased with the experience, except that I never received a bid even though we texted several times. Rob Quinlan from FCR was similarly on time, but his amiability, professionalism, and communication, both in person and in subsequent texts, set him apart. He has excellent follow through, too, as our gates attest! He also really knows the ins and out of gates. When I said I wanted ours to be pushed open from the street side, Rob asked if we had a pool. It turns out that if one has a swimming pool, the gate legally has to swing out to the street. Rob explained that pulling a heavy gate is harder for little kids than pushing it, making it less likely they can access a backyard and drown! I was so impressed with Rob that I told him then and there that I wanted to move ahead with FCR. I received the quote and a contract later that day. It showed the options for the two different types of Redwood. Rob had explained that the photos one sees of beautiful fences are always made of the more expensive wood, from the heart of the tree. I had said that was the one I wanted, but it was still great to see options and prices laid out. I was able to sign the contract electronically. It was another two weeks before the actual installation, but the day of the work was fast and smooth. The crew and Rob arrived separately and on time. We all discussed every detail afresh, this time with Hector and Paco weighing in with their own expertise. There was some discussion among the men as to how and where to install the posts for the new double gate so that it would stay strong for the long term. I was consulted as well and made it clear that longevity and easy operation were paramount to me. I also mentioned that I was nervous about the possibility of there being a pipe to the house in that area, one that was private and therefore not marked by the utility companies. (Rob had done his company's legal duty of arranging the 8-1-1 Dig Ticket ahead of the work day). Rob took me seriously and walked out to the sidewalk, saw that there was indeed a drainage outlet there and told Hector to dig slowly and attentively. Rob left for the day and Hector and Paco got to work. Hector did find the water pipe about 12" down, right where the post was supposed to go. He had me come out and see the situation. He gave me two options: place the post over the pipe, in which case it would lack endurance for the long term, or go two feet down in the hole he had already dug closer to the house. I opted for the deep hole and the reliable fence. I was glad to have been consulted. I was grateful for Hector's having found the pipe without damaging it. Both gates and the small fence surrounding them were completed between 8am and 3pm. The areas were all cleaned up. Hector had me come out and assess the work. The gates have easy and sturdy hardware on them. They open and close with ease, swinging into the backyard as specified. They're attractive, substantial, and show every sign of enduring. I knew from the good communication that I could simply hand the check to Hector. Rob was going to come by to make sure I was happy but I said I was exceedingly pleased and insisted he didn't need to. He followed up with a text nevertheless to double check and I gave him a glowing, detailed review. Later that day I received an invoice showing I had paid. I couldn't be any happier than to have trusted this work to FCR Fence & Deck.
