This is the second time I hired Northland Fence, this time for a 6 ft privacy vinyl fence. The…read morecompany offered an incredible special for early birds, which allowed us to make a huge fence. The project cost $15,000. The fence runs around our 3/4 acre, encompassing much of the property. PLAN Maria created a beautiful plan based on information provided online for our property (as well as on her private portal). This enabled us to get the project off the ground before I even purchased the house. We scheduled the first install date one day after my house closing. THE INSTALL The installation is done in three stages. I hired a surveyor to mark the property lines. Northland fence ordered the public utilities to be marked out, and I chose to hire Zone One to mark my irrigation and septic (which turned out to be very useful). Next, a full day was spent installing the posts (the day after I purchased the house). Aaron was the leader of a crew of two, and he and I reviewed the placement of the posts in relation to the original plan. We tweaked the plan, and Aaron was helpful, respectful and very patient as I revised things on the ground during the day. Thank you for that! We were able to respect our neighbor's privacy and increase the gate size to accommodate my UTV for snow-ploughing in winter. FINAL INSTALL The final installation was scheduled for 30 days after the post install, but Northland Fence were able to accommodate us early and install a week after. That was an incredible surprise, and our dogs were delighted! A crew of three arrived: Jesse, Chuck and Bobby, and the guys worked from around 9:00am to 5:00pm to install our huge fence. They began without disturbing me, as I was working. When I came out, they updated me that the fence will be completed in a day. They were quiet and respectful of the neighbors, parking on the side of the property. They did a walk around the fence several times during install to ensure that everything was done right, with a final walk-through the next morning when they came to finish off one small part. This gave me time to do a walk-through also. I didn't find anything wrong. The fence was perfect. DESIGN I'll add that I chose a two tone design, at no extra cost. It turned out gorgeous! WARRANTY 10 year warranty from Northland Fence, and they recommend that we contact them with any questions or problems before we check with our home owner's insurance, should any problem arise. RECOMMENDED.

Just be sure to read and understand the contract before signing. We didn't, and that's on us. The contract stated 2 to 4 week completion for our fence. In our case, Northland came out on Dec 10th and removed our old fencing, set some of the new posts, then left by noon. They returned on Dec 26th to finish the remaining posts. They returned on Jan 6th and installed the fence. All of the crews were polite and respectful. Our project was completed 3 weeks and 6 days after they began. Our problem was that our dog couldn't use the yard and the deer - the reason that we needed the fence - invaded and ate our new $$$ landscaping. There's a reason that a competitor advertises that they use the same crew for the entire process, and get it done in a day or two. If we could go back, we'd have made a different choice.

They chopped down very mature lilac bushes and put a vinyl fence right on top of the live stumps of these bushes. The bushes will just grow back and push up against the fence on both sides. It will look terrible in a couple years. They should have advised my neighbor to remove the bushes in the path of the fence before installing the fence. Also, the neighbor who is paying for the work asked for a different color of fence and they ignored his request. WTF, are you kidding me? Also, they are installed a fence practically touching another fence that is already on a property line. who does that. How is that neighbor going to take care of his fence on both sides? They also installed in fence part way into the alley, literally driving the support poles into the alley asphalt. Again, who does that? They should be at least a few inches into the property with those support poles. It's just a bunch of 20 year olds doing the work, who don't give a shit about the quality of their work. All of this just screams shady business.

The tree was leaning awkwardly between our pool and fence, so it required skill and precision. Jason and his team handled the felling expertly and brought the tree down safely without any issues. Their price was very fair, which we especially appreciated since we had just moved and needed the job done safely but as affordably as possible. We only needed the tree taken down and chose not to pay for debris removal, and they were great about placing the debris exactly where we asked so we could handle it ourselves after it is seasoned. Jason and his crew were professional, efficient, and easy to work with. The job was completed exactly as promised.

The beginning of the process was fine. They had the product we wanted at a comparable price. The…read moreproduct itself is good. The installers were polite. There are, however several things that have ruined this experience. Due to the pandemic and supply chain issues, our install was pushed out from October 2022 to Spring 2023. It was understandable. The biggest issue was communication. We would hear nothing for weeks on end and we would reach out to our sales representative. He would check and give tell us that we would be contacted in a day or two and then we would hear nothing. That has been a theme throughout the entire process. After several "false starts" of, "Install will contact you", the install finally happened on Thursday, June 15th. The installers were nice and polite. The lead was friendly and listened to us. Some of the techniques used were surprising and somewhat concerning. Normally when you set posts, you are constantly measuring, to make sure they are all in alignment and that their heights are uniform. That didn't happen. They set the posts in wet cement and then adjust the height by pounding down on the top of the post with a sledge hammer as someone eyeballs the height. No measurements taken to insure they match up with the others. I was intrigued by this, but figured they knew what they were doing. At one point I even pointed out that one post was way higher than the next one and that my wife would not be happy, so they went and pounded it down. Distances between posts aren't accurate. They are to be 8 ft panels, but the distance between posts vary. I'm also used to having post concrete being below ground, but in several places, the concrete is exposed at ground level. During the installation, we informed the installers that they had the wrong gates. 2 gates were supposed to have arched tops. They took pictures, called their supervisor, and told us they would temporarily install the wrong gates and then would be out with the correct ones. We then got word from the company that the ones we ordered last year are not being manufactured this year, so we need to keep these and we got a small price reduction for the issue. 2 days later we found the fence falling apart. 1 top rail totally pulled away from the post and took the panels with it. I also had to adjust several of the gates, because you had to push the gate up, otherwise the latch wouldn't catch. We contacted the company & let them know of the issue. They said they would pass the info on. In hindsight, we made the mistake of paying the remainder of the monies due before having the issues rectified. We heard nothing. After several more calls/e-mails, we were notified that they were ordering new parts. Again, horrible communication. During this time, we were able to wash the fence & found several gauges, scratches, and places they left splattered concrete harden on the fence. :( We have referenced these in continued contacts, since IT IS 2 MONTHS LATER & THEY HAVE YET TO COME BACK TO FIX ANYTHING! One of the features of a vinyl fence is the ability to take the post caps off and put on post lights. We asked how to take the caps off. They said the caps were only epoxied in 1 small spot and wedging a butter knife under the cap will release it. When I went to do that, it turns out they are very well epoxied in more than one spot, rather it epoxied on every side of the cap. When I followed his instructions, it actually ripped off a chunk of the colored vinyl, exposing the uncolored core of the post. When they come out to fix the panel, we will ask "the pros" to remove the caps without ruining the post. So now it is 2 months since install and reporting of issues and it still isn't done. We are trying to work on the other landscaping projects around the fence, but the fence itself is incomplete. I have reached out to the company occassionally asking for updates and get the "it should be here this week" response or no response at all. They haven't commented on the gouges or scratches. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.
