  Comegys Fence Construction

  Excellent. Alan did an excellent job putting up the fence, which was not easy due to a few easements, cable boxes, and overall slope of the land. Even when the weather did not cooperate, Alan got the job done right with care and an eye for precision. It was be best experience that I have ever had with a home contractor. Thank you, my family and I love the fence!

  MVP Fencing

  If you have a flat yard, they will probably do a decent job. But we have a slight easement (very slight) that they left a huge gap between the ground and the fence. So big that our 20 pound dog could easily get under, which obviously defeated the purpose of the fence. When I contacted the company their solution was to either put a piece of treated lumber down in the gap or bend the top rail so the fence would drop a little bit, but they would not put another fence post in the make it look decent. So, I ended up having to attach chicken wire to the bottom since neither of their solutions would look appealing. Workers were nice and the price was the most reasonable that I found, but the quality of work was lacking. We've since moved and I will not be using them again when our current fence needs replaced.

  Central Iowa Fencing LTD

  Mark was quick to respond for a quote. He was professional and took the time to answer my questions. Several others that came out for quotes were in a rush and gave me the impression they didn't want the job. We were able to get the job completed within 3 weeks of my responding back to him for scheduling. Mark handled all the details (permit and utilities marking). Mark and his crew were very professional and the job was done in only 4 hours. Wow. I wish we had done this a couple years ago. No hassle at all. Our neighbor was so impressed that she asked for a card. I would recommend this company to anyone needing fencing!

  Comegys Fence Construction

  We had a existing double-sided wooden fence that was rotted & ready to fall down.  They removed the existing fence and installed a new custom cedar fence.  The job was pretty difficult because of our neighbors overgrown garden crowding the fence and the weather was very hot.  Even though the job was more difficult than anticipated, we weren't charge any additional amount and the quality of the work was very good.  Very easy contractor to work with and they go out of their way to make their customers happy.  Highly recommended contractor!

  MVP Fencing

  Least expensive bid. Rich was very nice. By the time we confirmed, he told us the fence should be installed mid-July.
  
  Fence was not installed until the end of August, partially due to weather. Had to call many times and no timeline was given. Fence was installed in two quick days--6' Cedar privacy fence. The fence looked great--very consistent and professional-looking. 
  
  As always, there were some issues:
  1. Timeline - Fence was installed a month behind schedule (understandable due to weather).
  2. Clean up - Lots of nails and chunks of concrete/dirt left in the yard. Killed a lot of grass. Chunks of dirt and sod were thrown (poorly) under our deck. 
  3. Gaps - Many small (4-5") gaps along the bottom. Our dogs are coming close to getting out. I'm not a fence person, so I'm not sure if this is normal.
  4. Payment - Major issue here. As expected, half the payment was requested at the time we signed the contract. It wasn't until 2 1/2 months later that work started. The fence was completed and then Rich left a voicemail to schedule a time to come look at it. I called back, left a message, and he never returned my call. Two weeks later we got the bill (on a Monday). We sent payment on Thursday. On Saturday morning, 9/17, Rich called and left a voicemail message stating "it's been over 30 days since installation" and "if payment isn't received in ten days, it will be turned over to our attorney". When I called, he was rude and  dismissive, despite my attempts to be polite. 
  
  This was a great experience until the end. But to try to stay objective, I'll finish by leaving my top to pros and cons:
  
  Pro #1: Fence was finished in two days.
  Pro #2: Least expensive bid.
  
  Con #1: Poor customer service (possibly?) due to poor bookkeeping. 
  Con #2: Construction crew did not clean up and killed a lot of grass.

  N & E Fencing & Repairs

  He did a fantastic job. He ran wire through the bottom links so my dog wouldn't be able to dig under the fence and stretch it. He and his partner did a very nice job and I'm very pleased. I did not comparison shop but I believe the price was reasonable.

  LONE STAR CONSTRUCTION

  Lone Star provided estimates, removed the doors and installed new doors. They did exactly what they said they would do, their install was very well done and the area was cleaned after the job.
