Mike Ward prides himself in his workmanship and attention to detail, and he is a perfectionist. He installed a board on board 6 ft privacy fence with the scalloped design. The Western Red Cedar he used is gorgeous, and he used the more expensive aluminum nails which do not rust and streak over time. He uses three cross braces rather than two that most use. From start to finish, the job was completed as described and it really exceeded my expectations. I would hire Mike Ward Fence again without hesitation. Thank you, Mike!

I was just hoping to find someone to take out a section of 4 foot slat fencing and replace with 6 foot solid vinyl. And and a 30 foot fence for wind on the other side of our pool. I could not believe my luck when I met Mike. He was so professional and patient explaining proposed work. This guy is a vanishing breed of people! Tells you what he can, will do. Then amazingly enough does it and while always rechecking his work! My wife and I are so happy to find someone like Mike Ward Fencing. I RECOMMEND MIKE WARD FENCING TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR FENCING WORK!

Thank you Mike Ward!! This is the best person to do any fencing job. See Mike has the passion of building great fences. Its not a job to him, its the love of building a great fence for you and dogs especially. Mike was the only fence builder to actually come and meet you. others either talk to you to the phone or don't return your calls. Mike has 43 years of building fences. Mike is a solo act and he would beat a crew of young workers at the same job. You will not regret hiring Mike Ward. I promise that.... Thanks again Mike...

I just bought my first house and with four dogs-needed a good strong fence. His concern was always regarding my pets and my daughter first. Mr. Ward was perfect, the price was perfect, and my fence was perfect. My fence turned out absolutely beautiful! I have had several compliments and offer referrals to anyone I even hear whisper about fence work. I absolutely 100% recommend ward fencing to anyone looking for fence work!!!

I have two pets and I needed to have a fence installed as soon as possible before I moved into my new place. Mike was amazing. He put my pets' needs first, and he installed the fence in the weekend. He was very nice, extremely knowledgeable, and completed the task in a timely manner. Thank you, Mike! My dogs love their new yard.

I cannot be more pleased with the quality of my fence as well as the exceptional service that I received. I was in quite a pinch with needing to get my fence installed quickly. All other vendors were 8 wks out on their building. I told Mike my situation, and he went over and beyond the call of duty to help me out. His pricing was extremely reasonable and within a week, my fence was up. He is the most honest and friendly contractor that I have ever dealt with. If I could give him a 100 star rating, I would. I thank you Mike !!! and, my fur babies Thank You !!!!

I paid 10,000.00 to have them install a PVC fence. I had to call them back they didn't even glue the tops down on the post the wind blew them off, the gate was not even, hung down they took it off put more holes in the fence rehung it. Now after the winter the gate is coming apart, sagging..come to find out they didn't even re enforce the post the gate was hung on. Now I have to get some to repair all of it. The gate wasn't even secured together..don't hire them, they where in to big of a hurry to get out of here with my money.
Response from Mike Ward Fence
"We have been in business for 40 years and Everyone knows what the costs of our jobs before we begin construction. There are No add on s or surprises- this lady was fully aware of the price long before we started- the fence looks as good as the day we put it in several months it was completed - its as straight and clean as day one- we attempted to call but she never returned our calls- we have and are as competitive and conscience about all of our jobs and our customers- she should have seen this in our other customer reviews!"
