BAY AREA FENCE & DECK

They are our designated vendor for fences for our HOA. They have built and repaired all of our fences for the past 10 yearsl They are prompt and responsive. The fences are beautiful and sturdy. We highly recomend this company.

Thet showed up on time and did what appears to be a great job. My neighbor and I did a fence with them on the other side of my yard about 7 years ago. They did nice work back then, so I went back for my recent project. They seem to have done great work once again. They use a hard working crew. What's not to like. Will most likely look them up soon about replacing a backyard redwood deck. Jay

They did a great job. Quality and punctually.

Scheduled an apt for estimate 5 days out. Took day off work to be available mid day. Steve called about half hour prior to say he was en route. Great! 12:15 Steve hasn't shown up or responded to calls. Call the main office 1min later, and they call him and he picks up immediately. Says he didn't have address correct and attempts to call us weren't answered. Verified the address was correct with main number. Pretty sure GPS has us (large neighborhood sprawl in Silicon Valley), and my phone showed no missed calls and I was in the front yard working the whole time. If you want to start a fencing job on misdirection and lies by all means call this co.

They took a while to quote but once we got started, very easy to work with. Very professional. They took care of plants and cleaned up the jobsite.

He responded immediately and made an appointment 10 days out. The day of the appointment he texted to cancel, never texted again to reschedule.

I called them to try and get someone out here for a quote. I understand prequalifying a prospect, but the person I spoke to had no interest in sending someone out. He asked me 6 times how high for the deck, and each time I answered that I only needed 2 steps up, the deck and no fence around the deck, and no old deck removal, as I have already removed it. He told me I was talking at least $18K, which is crazy for what I want, and then told me to call back when I had more specifics. Um.....no.

They were terrrific! They arrived on time and worked two solid days to get the work done. They were very skilled , and I feel we got a first class result that should last many years.

They kept the appointment and emailed an estimate that evening. The fastest turn around of any of the estimates. It came down to this company and one other. We choose the other because they take visa for payment and that gives us airline miles.

Excellent Company.  Excellent materials used.  Excellent workmanship and overall professionalism of this company.  My fence and deck company from now on.

I emailed online and got response back over the weekend that Mike would call me Monday after 11:00 a.m. I clearly stated that I wanted chain link neighbor fence, and iron fence and gates on the front of my property.  I couldn't wait around for his call, so I called the number listed.  The lady that answered the call eventually told me that they don't do iron fence or chain link.  I asked if they could do a gazebo like structure, and she said that they would only bid on a permitted set of plans.  I told her I didn't need a permit because it was under 110 sf.  She argued with me that it was 74 sf or something like that.  I had to bang in her head that I wasn't in the City of San Jose.  She quoted me over $3K for a new gazebo, but I told her that I just needed a roof on an exisitng.  Anyway, it appears they have too much work for me anyway.   I think I might have given them another shot for the gazebo work if the miscommunication didn't happen because I was planning on waiting until summer anyway for this project because it involved a bad gutter interface I needed to have corrected.

Estimator came promptly and got me a quote on the spot after about a 15-minute conversation.  They didn't quite have the cheapest quote (though it wasn't very far off), but they were able to schedule the work sooner, and I got a little better vibe from their sales pitch in terms of their description of the work and quality of the work (e.g. larger kick plates on the bottom).
After accepting the quote, I called to schedule the work.  Workers came on time and finished in a day as promised.  Fence looks great and looks solid.  Posts look solidly anchored in concrete-filled post-holes, pressure-treated wood for the posts, solidly-nailed, etc.  Gate operates smoothly.  They left the site very clean.  The whole process was very smooth, and no issues interfacing with perpendicular fences coming in from the neighbors, even though those were in poor shape.  Hassle-free.

They were outstanding! We only paid half of the cost and the neighbors paid the other half. My husband's an engineer so he was out guiding them. I wanted it to be 6 feet and then a foot of lattice, which is more than what's normally in the backyard and they were terrific about that. They put it board on board, which is what I wanted. They mounted the concrete nice and high the way my husband wanted. It is absolutely gorgeous and I love it. They went above and beyond trying to please us and it was done in one day. It was fantastic! I was so excited about it. My husband said that they were cheaper than the other companies that we looked into.

It went great! It took them a little under 2 days to rip out the old redwood fence, dig new post holes, replace two existing gates and add a new gate for a neighbor. The wood quality seems much higher than other fences in the neighborhood and in general it feels very solid. It looks amazing!
They worked extremely hard and the fence shows a high level of craftsmanship. All 4 neighbors who were involved are very happy with the result.

Jack came out to provide a quote and was quick and efficient during his visit. He emailed me the quote a couple days later and was able to provide the most competative pricing as compared to 2 other quotes I received. Scheduling the work itself was very easy. They knew I was hoping to get the work done sooner than we were able to schedule for, so when they had a cancellation they called me up and fit me in earlier which was great.
Two gentlemen showed up the day of work on time and ready to go. We hammered out the final details on the placement of the gates and they were off and running. They were able to remove an existing chain link fence and cut back some of the brush/trees that were up against it. They were very careful of their work and the plants still looked great afterwards. We had 50 ft. of new fence put in - the wood was good quality and they dug the posts deep and filled with concrete. We also had two gates put in - one 42 in. and the other 48 in. wide. Both looked great, with arched tops and work well. The crew finished right on time and cleaned up after themselves.
Overall, this was a very pleasant experience and I highly recommend Bay Area Fence and Deck!

I really like it. I really liked working with them. They were very prompt and the fellow that came to do the estimate was very nice. I plan to use them again for a deck. I think the price is pretty reasonable. The quality is very good. I was impressed by their responsiveness. They didn't require payment at that time. I asked how others were doing it and they said they take a check. The next day, I was called by one of their personnel and I was asked if I liked the job and that I wanted to be billed for it now so it didn't really require payment until after the work was done and you are happy so I thought that was nice. They showed up on time.

Bay Area fence did a terrific job. The quote was punctual, complete, competitive and clear. The replacement fence that they built far exceeded my expectations, that of my neighbor and that of several neighbors who came over to look. I highly recommend them.

Very well. They were prompt, neat, and thorough. Used their own milled slightly
thicker fencing boards. Crowned concrete around fence posts to prevent standing
water from collecting and rotting posts. Removed a gas line from old fence and
re-attached it to the new fence. Good job

I understand that we wanted this job at the peak of and quot;Fence Seasonand quot;, but after being jerked around by other fence companies (their excuse after I get a no-show or no-call backs and quot;We are too busyand quot; and and quot;Oh, I didn't make it to our scheduled appointment because I went on vacationand quot;), I am so glad that I found a company that has acted in a very professional manner from the person answering/returning my calls to the foreman and workers who did an excellent job. Jack was my main contact and was able to give me a quote right away and an estimate a start/completion date (and more importantly...no un-returned calls!!!). Although I got cheaper quotes from other companies, I went with this company foremost because of the people but also product-wise: they secured the fence posts in a 3 feet concrete holes vs 2 feet for others and 1 1/2 feet (this is for a 7 feet fence!) and they have the longest warranty (with better coverage). The final product is beautiful!

Did an excellent job, they were on time, and are great company. Did what they said they would. Broke our sprinkler accidentally, but they came back and fixed it for us. Would recommend them!

Went very well. I would use them again.

Very responsive to initial inquiries. Made a point of fitting me into schedule for a job review and estimate.
Crew was very responsible and responsive.
Detailed work on cleaning and sanding the deck and old wool.
Very careful.
Would hire again.
