"Skyline Metal Fabrication's attention to detail, flexibility, expert craftsmanship, excellence, and ultimate pursuit of perfection is what immediately comes to mind when I think about my experience with Ramiro, Heather, and crew.  After vetting about 10 local companies for my iron fence project, Skyline was head and shoulders above the competition.  For example, one of the questions I asked all companies was "How much distance would separate each post on this property?"  Until Ramiro, all companies responded with a generic, canned answer.  Ramiro, on the other hand, took out his tape measure and proceeded to measure each side of the property.  He then sat down at my patio table, grabbed a pen and piece of paper, and calculated the exact distance.  To the inch.  In addition, he explained that this distance would vary based on the fence height, picket thickness overall weight of each section, and other factors (our fence is 6").  He also shared in detail the nature of designing an iron fence and discussed the endless options available, giving my wife and I great ideas for our project.  I knew then and there Skyline was hired before the quote arrived.  Needless to say, we will be hiring Skyline for future projects and can't recommend them enough.   "

"Alexandria Lexendrax is my half sister and is a grifter. She financially ruined herself and the one review left on this "business" she DOES NOT RUN. this is a FAKE business LLC under her name that she is using to Garner funding.

Woodard's llc DBA custom wrought iron and metal works. We are family owned and operated with 15 years of experience. We are licensed and insured, insurance certificate available upon request. We accept cash, check and all major credit cards. Terms of payments are as follows 50 percent down and remainder due on completion.

"We paid a $625.00 deposit on 5/21/19 and signed a work order that said the work would be completed in 5 weeks. The check was cashed immediately. Nothing happened. I kept checking in and was told there were delays. The final measurement was finally scheduled the last of July (10 weeks after signing work order). More cancellations of scheduled appointments. We finally had enough of the poor communication and cancellations. First week of August we requested a cancellation of the project and the return of our $625.00 deposit. Gloria Sanchez, the owner, kept apologizing for the bad service. She said our deposit would be returned. But it is 9/7/19 and we still have not received our money back. The work order did not have any policy wording about cancelling a project after a deposit was paid. No waiting time or restocking fees, etc. They have taken our money, done nothing and will not return it to us in a reasonable fashion after apologizing for their poor service. They admitted doing wrong by us yet are punishing us for their lack of professionalism. It's appalling behavior."

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

You can use pressure-treated wood for a horizontal fence, but you’ll need to purchase a thicker and higher-quality variety to ensure it doesn’t sag or warp after you install it. Use #2 pine grade lumber and boards and thicker dimensional lumber, such as a two-by-six. You’ll also need to use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, as the chemicals in the treated lumber will cause regular galvanized fasteners to rust. 

You can use soil and gravel instead of concrete when setting fence posts. However, concrete is more durable and longer lasting, so it's worth considering if you want your fence to withstand the test of time. You should especially consider concrete if you live in a region that experiences severe weather, which can damage your fence.

The average lifespan of a vinyl fence is 20 to 30 years. But with regular maintenance and care, some vinyl fences can last up to 50 years. To keep your fence in good shape, we recommend cleaning it every few months with a soft-bristled brush and mild soap, regularly inspecting it for damage, and trimming nearby trees to reduce the chance of impact damage or mold growth.

There are many pros and cons to vinyl and composite fencing. Both fencing types offer longer lifespans than wood fencing, with some notable advantages. Whether one is better for you will depend on a few factors. Composite is better if you prefer recycled materials, while vinyl is extremely easy to clean. 

Also, consider the disadvantages: vinyl can be more expensive, while composite fencing fades during the first six months.

How much does a privacy fence cost? Stockade fences cost $12 to $13 per linear foot for materials. You may find fencing that costs less, but it’s likely wholesale wood manufactured using young trees. Fencing materials made with young trees are less durable than those made with mature trees.

For installation, expect to pay $30 to $80 per hour. Installing a 150- to 200-linear-foot fence takes 20 to 35 hours, which comes to about $600 to $2,800 for labor.
