"I’ve had Nick out to help with a few different things, from cleaning my gutters and putting up Christmas lights to trimming bushes and some low branches. He’s always been dependable and does a good job. I love having someone to call when I have a few things around the house that need taken care of."

"We are absolutely thrilled with the quality of work and character of Jack Schafer from Straight Line Fencing. He made time in his busy schedule to fit in a repair on my mother's fence- traveled extra miles to get there- and completed the job meticulously. He was professional in every way- and truly the kindest man my mother has worked with. We highly recommend Jack for your fencing needs- his work and character are exceptional!! Thank you Jack!"
