The project was 1) replacing a 2nd story deck that had a hot tub on it and provided rain cover for the deck below, 2) a new lower deck, and 3) replacing a fence. Their work was professional and beautiful. This job was performed about 9 years ago, and the reason I am writing this review now is because it was quality work that is STILL strong beautiful to this day. read more

Nik & Josh professionally dressed and they arrived 10-minutes early to replaced my 49-feet old wooden fence yesterday, we had a quick walk-through and after that they got to work on the project immediately! they were like an oiled machine! my old fence had quickly disappeared! Then my new fence had suddenly appeared in no time at all! They were very efficient, fast, professional and easy to communicate with. They were also very careful walking and avoiding all my delicate flowers nearby the site that I had marked with orange flags. Thank you so much Nik & Josh! I am very happy with my new fence, I will definitely recommend this place to all my friends an family! Josie read more

Rick's replaced our old, rotted cedar deck with a beautiful composite board deck. The work done by the crew of Trevor, Rico and Nick was first rate. All three young men were professional, conscientious, and easy to get along with. We couldn't be more pleased with the results of their hard work. Max and Mary J read more

Very happy with the work and product. The installers, Derek and Ken worked hard in the rain to complete the installation in 2 days.

A shout out to Courtney and Bret who built a beautiful deck in the pouring rain in under 3 days. Nice job.

We were very,very happy with Rick's Custom Fence and Deck. They were quick to come out and do an estimate for us and then quick to get our job scheduled. They worked with us on blackberry removal and were very flexible even when we had a last-minute change. Joe and Jon handled the demolition of our existing fence. They were great guys and very helpful setting aside boards to save. Courtney and Lane installed our fence and they were very customer-service oriented and super nice people. Most importantly, they did an excellent job on our fence land even came back to deal with a little detail that needed some additional work. We would highly recommend that you work with this company. Throughout the process, we always felt that what we wanted was more important than what would be the easiest thing for them to do. Thanks for a great fence!! read more

Rick's Custom is simply the best for fencing and decking. The crew of Isaiah & Brad DeNoble were spot on for quality and detail. They were excellent carpenters and built us a beautiful new cedar fence. These gentlemen deserve a five star rating and I'll not hesitate to recommend Rick's for any fencing or decking construction or repair. I am now the proud owner of a home that has Rick's Fencing on all three sides! Thanks again boys for an all around super job. All the best, Mark A. read more

No, it was your location. English wasn't the problem. Putting in locks backwards, suggesting a lower grade wood than we were thinking & was ppoorly constructed, not to mention uneven. I stand true to my position based on our owrsonal experience. read more

looks great . after calculating material costs plus 30 % Rick made 400.00 per hour on 2 day job. cedar fence 175ft approx . spent 1 hour pounding in bottom row staples . would not do staples again. Roy worked hardest. Fernando worked 2nd hardest. Jesus stapled cedar. Must be huge demand for fences to get such high hourly rate. Like heavy metal channel posts over round posts. like screws over staples or aluminum nails. all estimates had great reviews. Lowest was 7000.00 with round posts and nails. Ricks was highest . read more

Derek W and Jon H from Ricks Custom Fencing built a Deer fence, pergola, and two garden gates for us. Their work was professional and beautiful. any tiny thing we wanted changed along the way, they were happy to do, and they asked questions about how we wanted it done throughout. We were very pleased with their work and demeanor. Thank you Derek and Jon. read more

I had Rick's Fencing construct a fence for my yard three years ago. They did a great job then, but what is most impressive is they gladly returned to make a couple of tweaks to the fence three years later. They were friendly and accommodating to ensure the fence continues to be strong for many more years. read more

We had Rick's install front fencing/gates to enclose our property which was otherwise fenced on side and back. After observing neighborhood fencing attempts and obviously nonprofessional, unattractive, leaning and uneven projects, we opted to spend a little more for a professional, long lasting and very attractive addition to our landscape. Norman and Darek were friendly, professional and finished the project in one day. They answered my questions and explained the project clearly. I LOVE the look and the fact there is a lifetime guarantee. read more

Rick's Custom Fencing & Decking - Fence/gate project - Fences & Gates Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Working with Rick's Custom Fencing & Decking to replace our old/rotting deck with a new composite deck was fantastic. We decided to go with the partial installation package, with RCFD replacing a few rotten posts, restructuring the stairs, adding joists, and installing the hand rails. The RCFD team (Woody, Brook, and Michael) did a great job in the time they were on site. They were always on time, let us know what was happening that day, answered any questions we had, and worked professionally. Woody did a fantastic job explaining to us how to install the deck boards and they went down with minor issues (there's definitely a little bit of a learning curve). RCFD was also quick to send out someone to fix a minor issue we found (one of the small sections of the railing was missing the spacers between the pickets). We are extremely happy with the work that RCFD and we would use them again for another project. read more

Had a metal fence with three gates installed late in the year by Rick's and the team did a great job.

Just had a beautiful 300 square foot deck built by Rick's. Initially we went to the showroom and spoke with Spencer who showed us all of our options. He provided hundreds of photos to view of past work, had great brochures, had samples to take home of potential colors and materials. Spencer came out to our home and took all the measurements and guided us through what to expect. Although the cost was quite high, that comes with a very professional attitude and attention to detail. Our install team met us day one on time and ready to go at 0800. Woody, the senior supervisor, went over every detail of the estimate invoice to make sure we were both on the same page. He made it clear that he would check in every morning when they started and every afternoon when they left to ensure that our concerns were answered. For example, they discovered dry rot underneath the header board of the house from the old deck. We addressed it in the morning and it was repaired that day. Most importantly the finished product was an icon of attention to fit and finish. And although I have built my own decks in the past, I could not have achieved the quality of these professionals. I have to mention the other crew member, Norman, a recent transplant from Reno. He was very friendly, easy to talk to, genuine and an excellent apprentice. They finished the job in four full days. On the work and crew alone I would give a five, but the high cost is the only reason I gave a 4. read more

We got a couple bids with one being Rick's Custom Fencing in the Camas WA area and we thought it would be better to go with a larger brand name for this fencing project which is a very small job of having one side of our small backyard fence replaced plus a new gate built. Well, when we hired Rick's Custom Fencing end of May 2024, a one day job turned out to be 6 days. A 3 man crew showed up to do the work. They worked all day till 4pm tearing down one side of the old fence, putting on top caps, new gate and 3 metal posts in the ground with the whole side open to the neighbors yard and they thought they were completely done. Complete miscommunication with the office on what had to be done and workmanship was not quality up to this point where neighbors were very unhappy. The manager arrived on the second day with the crew at our request, instructions given to crew for corrections and they ran out of materials but returned later that evening. Many nails left sticking out that were a safety hazard on the 1st & 2nd day so then they returned 5 days later to finish. I then asked if he could be careful around landscape & plants he stepped on a landscape light and broke it in front of me accidentally. They then asked if I would sign forms that didn't get signed initially and one was that I hold them harmless of all and any damages they make. I said no to that one in particular and asked to be reimbursed for the broken light off my remaining bill. They did credit me for the light off my remaining bill. After a week long saga of issues from what initially should have been one day of quick competent service, I could not refer them to anyone or consider using this company again with the stress & inconvenience caused. read more

Rick's Fencing is the best in the biz. From the moment I called and booked an appointment to the last seconds of installation (they cleaned up everything) they were above par and the work they do should have a Hollywood spotlight shining on it. We can't stop looking at it. Our two fences, gate and staircase are perfect! I mean PERFECT! Don't be "on the fence" about who to call to help you with your fencing needs. This company is the best!! read more

Rick's did a fantastic job installing a three-rail vinyl pasture fence with arbor and two gates. Great service, responsive, and good communication. Taylor and Zach were outstanding. read more

Taylor and Ethan were great! Fence looks awesome :)

Joe and Taylor just finished putting in a beautiful new vinyl fence. They did a great job, and we are more than satisfied with our new look! They both were eager to answer any questions or worries that we had. They went out of their way not to trample my plants if they had to step around where the posts would be and allowed me time to dig out those plants that would have been ruined. Honestly, I don't think you pay them enough! Thanks again guys! read more

We had Rick's install two types of vinyl fencing around 1/4 acre a few years ago. Their crew was efficient and did a great job. They continue to go above and beyond over time if a fence gate sags or need tightening, they come out free of charge to do so. They're staff is always knowledgeable and friendly. Very happy with both the product and the company. We will continue to use them for other upcoming projects. read more

Purchased their deck boards and clips, upon paying the sales guy said he wasn't sure if they had it in stock. Tried calling the back and when they didn't answer he said well I'm not showing we have it so it should be about 5-6 days...we'll call you as soon as it's ready for pickup. Ok, cool. We waited till the following Saturday to call and find out the status which I was put on hold for about 10 minutes for the sales guy to "check" but then got back on the line and said he still wasn't sure and would call me back shortly. After 3 hours of no call back I called back and was sent to the back office who let me know he pulled the inventory the previous Friday and it's been sitting there waiting for over a week for pickup. They offer great products but their front desk customer service definitely needs help cause it seems as no one knows what's going on and how to assist customers. They definitely dropped the ball, so if your not going to get their products installed you should probably call daily or have the actual sales guy walk in the back to check himself to see if the products are in stock or you may be waiting or have the ball dropped like they did with me. Clearly they don't call customers back as promised. read more

Dan Shambaugh was a great help in designing our fence and listening to our preferences. RDO (Ryan) and LWD (Liam) came in to the project a couple days in, and made sure that the installation met all our expectations. We appreciate attention to detailed and quality work. They were exceptional. Thank you so much! read more

Our old deck needed replacement and Rick's performed that work and some fencing for us. We couldn't be happier with the finished product! We were lucky to have Ryan and Devan leading our job and they made sure that every detail was correct. We discovered several of our support posts for our house were rotten, and they fixed those two! Highly recommend these guys for their thoroughness, problem solving skills and professionalism. Thanks! read more

I emailed Rick's Custom Fencing & Decking inquiring about resurfacing a patio. After I told them I was deaf, they stopped returning my emails and communicating with me. I guess during this busy season they don't need the "hassle." Bottom line....Rick's Custom Fencing & Decking discriminates. read more

It's been sometime since we used Rick's here in La Center but better late than never I suppose? Rick's gave us a gate in the fence that was here when we bought the house! Very good, very pleased. ''Thank you Rick's 5 stars*****! read more

Rick's fencing must be busy with business; which is awesome for our local businesses. Though, I received emails from Steve and another from Joe from Rick's and never heard back from them on an estimate for our fencing project. We have a small backyard, only 40x45 ft and must've been too small of project to provide an estimate for. read more

Rick's uses cedar that is kiln dried and imported, contains knotholes galore and splits when nailed in. Some of fence boards are not even nailed to the runners (2x4's). The installation of the fence was installed incorrectly as per the invoice. The cedar was to set on top of the 2"x8" pressure treated wood, not nailed to the side, like the crew was going to do until the salesman was called. The crew was informed by the salesman not to reuse the boards. They did any way as per the labor boss, Chris. The fence was supposed have a 1" overlay on each side. How come I can see my neighbors yard through the fence? The crew came out 3 times to fix split boards and exposed nails. Guess what? They caused new ones. The boards have new gaping holes because of the poor quality wood. The power on the nail gun put nails halfway through the cedar boards. When they attached the cedar to the runners, they missed. Sharp nails are exposed for potential injury. I have had to cut them so my dogs aren't scratched. In some spots 3 nails were used. That would be a cluster. The craftmanship that was done on this job is more like crapmanship. With all these split and cracked boards, I am not going to waste money to stain it. Because some of the split boards are behind bushes, Kris the manager said " It's okay the bushes are hiding them." Every time I go out to my back yard I find more holes, cracks and splits in the boards. Even the pressure treated boards are splitting. Take for instance, the 4"x4" post for my gate. It's splitting down the center and twisting. That's the cedar fence. Now about the resurfacing of porch deck. The corners were not mitered, blunt crooked cuts, boards were not cut even and the porch is not squared to the house. Oh, wait the existing foundation was used. So that is why it is not squared to the house according to the manager Kris. The old porch was square to the house. WTH! I was also charged for joists that were not installed. But wait, when they installed my chain link fence I was charged for posts that aren't there. The latch that was installed didn't work for a one way gate. As per Kris, tie a cord to one side and a nut to the other to pull up the latch to open it. It's butterfly latch. I ended up attaching a piece metal with screws. read more

Kudo's to Kris K for addressing my concerns quickly, organizing a repair and to Rob and Brad for the friendly, courteous and professional reinstall. Living at 1500 ft with more rain than the amazon, our Rick's installed fence began to show sign that the staples were rusting - black streaks. I spoke to Kris several months after the install to explain the situation and requested a reinstall of the pickets. Kris responded quickly and with a couple of week Bran and Rob came by to install new pickets. They did a great job using more water resistant hardware for our elevation and rainfall. They thoroughly confirmed what they were going to do and afterwards,what they had done. Thanks for making things right guys. read more

About 7 weeks ago we had Ricks Fencing come out and give us a estimate for our gate. Really simple just duplicate what we had. He measured and said the price would be such amount. We gave him our debit card # while we were here and did not hear from them. The fellow that came claims our card did not work. Never called us back. We called them. I immediately called our bank as I had called them the day prior to make sure it would authorize as they have limits for what can go through. The bank said no issue. I explained what happened to our bank and the employee at the bank looked at it and said the fellow had put the wrong expiration date in. To be on the safe side we put it on our AMEX card. We were told it would be done on this date. They called the day of installation and said they were running behind and could not do it and would Friday be ok. No worries! They came today and the installers had some issues and the talked with my husband and I and said we would owe over 1000 more as it was not measured properly????? It was measured x2 as my husband watched the fellow do it. We had to ask for our deposit back. The installers who came even said that it was NOT very professional on their end. We said to them we don't blame you we were upset at the fencing co. They did call and try to back peddle. Why did you quote us a price and then raise it saying you didn't measure right when you were here and measured x2? We were hoping to have it on today so we could continue with our projects but now we have to find another fence guy. read more

The patio cover built by Rick's Custom Fencing is exactly what I wanted. We customized the size to my home and backyard for a perfect fit. It protects my home from the weather and provides a nice barrier. The dogs paws are cleaner than they were before the patio cover which saves me a lot of work every time they go out. Much appreciated! Sunshine still get through but it isn't as searing as it was before scorching my houseplants. I certainly appreciate that. It opens up more living space in the back. I look forward to my first summer with this. It is sturdy and durable and the top provides UV protection. There is a lifetime warranty with it. The installation was done in one day for my project. The guys who did the installation were professional and efficient. I felt comfortable with every interaction around this. It is a good investment in my home. read more

When purchasing the materials for my fence project the salesperson told me about the half price cedar fence boards as an option. I needed 200 usable boards and the was told that I would need to order an extra 10% in order to get that number. I wanted to be sure I could get enough boards, so I ordered 250. After removing the boards which were so bad, they would either fall apart in a few weeks of NW weather or were so ugly I won't put them in an alley I ended up with 190 boards. And that was stretching into the range of pretty bad looking boards. Be warned, trying to save money could cost you a lot of effort and time. Now what do I do with 60 pieces of kindling wood and no fireplace? I made my purchase on Friday and scheduled to pick up the boards the next Tuesday. Since there was a large amount of rain forecast for the weekend, I was promised that my order would be banded and covered until I arrived. This did not happen. My order was pulled from a pile of boards that were dripping wet. Now I will have to air dry the boards for a long time before I can apply my oil-based stain. Don't believe everything you are told. read more

I needed a full deck rebuild and had no idea where to start. The guys at Rick's were prompt and attentive making this experience one of the best in my history working with contractors. They helped me decide on a design that fit my house and needs. When the crew showed up to build my deck they were very proffesional and started working right away! My deck is done for the summer and can't wait to show it off to the all of my friends and family! read more

I'm a real estate broker and rental owner and thus have had the occasion to use a fencing company on several occasions. I've used Rick's Fencing twice and both times have been very happy with the service and results. The recent job was a small job but I still received the same careful attention to customer service and construction of the fence. Bryce, Andrew, and the new trainee all did a fantastic job! read more

I had Rick's Fencing install a fence and two gates in my back yard. I could never get the key to lock one of the latches on one gate. Two men came to my home on two different trips to fix the problem. (Neither I nor my two daughters could get the key to lock the latch after the first "fix".. There was a trick to it that we just couldn't "get". So Stu Bailey came out and led my daughter through it.) I really appreciate the good service from Rick's Custom Fencing & Decking. I was not charged for these visits. Jackie read more
