I would strongly recommend Cleveland Fence Co.
They were very responsive to come and give us an estimate. Then I sent a $600 deposit to them and two weeks later hadn't heard a thing (I expected them to call me as soon as they received my deposit to schedule the job).
After two weeks I called them. They scheduled an installation date and gave the impression they could complete our job in one day.
The crew did not show up on that day. My wife called the office and they had no record of our appointment. They rescheduled.
The crew showed up, but without any equipment or supplies. They claimed they came "to see what they need". This even though a very detailed description of the fence segments, dimensions, materials and installation conditions were written on the estimate.
Another day they came back to begin work but hadn't brought a jackhammer even though they now had seen twice that they needed to install posts in existing concrete.
They finally installed the wood portion of the fence and the posts for the chain link gate. But only then did it apparently occur to them to actually order the gate (a fence company doesn't make gates?). Again we heard nothing for a couple of weeks until we nagged them every day and they eventually came and finished the job - the day before we left for vacation and needed our fence complete for our dog.
They also installed the three segments of wood fence with the top rails very much not lined up with each other and one segment visibly bowed. They did come back and do a mediocre job of fixing that.
They were the cheapest bid. You get what you pay for.
The installation personnel were very polite and friendly. The office personnel were incompetent, unresponsive and failed to call multiple times when they said they would.
On 06/25/13 a representative from Cleveland Fence inspected the damage and gave me a quote for the above amount, which was $400 higher than the insurance company estimate, but I was adding an extra fence post and an extra foot of chain link over what had been there previously, so the price sounded OK at the time.
Because of the limitations of my schedule, and because they were backed up due to the very rainy weather we had been having, they scheduled to set the fence posts on 08/08/13 and dress them (attach the chain link and gate) on 08/09/13.
They canceled because they were backed up on a previous job, and rescheduled to 08/13/13 and 08/15/13.
They cancleld again, and rescheduled to 08/22/13 and 08/27/13 (to fit around my schedule). They set the posts on 08/22/13 but later in the day, I noticed that many of the fence post holes did not have cement to the top of the holes, but only a very little cement in the bottom of the holes. I called them. I received a call on 08/26/13 that they had finished the cement in the holes, but they had to cancel the dressing of the poles on 08/27/13 and reschedule that to 08/29/13 because they didn't have the chain link in stock. (Really? You've known for two months that you needed chain link for this job.)
On 08/29/13 they theoretically finished the job, but later in the day I noticed that they had not put the caps on the gate posts. I called them and they put the caps on later that day. The following week I paid them the balance i owed them.
Several months later I noticed that the four fence posts across the front of my yard are not evenly spaced as they were before the damage. But I''m done with them. I'll live with my uneven fence posts rather than deal with them again.
This year I needed another small section of privacy fence to replace some of the damaged privacy shrubs. Once again they responded immediately scheduled and completed the job professionally and on time. Then I determined that I had not planned correctly and needed another section of fence which would require them to dig up the tapered end section replace it with a full sized section and reinstall another tapered end piece. I felt kind of silly going back ask about adding a single section, but the people here are extremely nice and very accommodating. Not a problem for them, they scheduled the job, came when promised, and were even able to save and reuse the original end piece, so I ended up paying for only a single section and labor.
They did a great job, on time and when I screwed up, they had nothing but smiles and a will to help. This is the kind of company you wish all others were like. Use them!
I've never had a fence or really ever noticed fences before. So I was really starting from scratch. Once you start to look - you start seeing fences everywhere and tons of styles. One thing I noticed was how BAD it looks when a fence is not installed well, or of good quality. I quickly realized its better to not have a fence -- than have a poorly installed or poor quality one.. so that ruled out taking any chances with HomeDepot or a non fence expert.
Cleveland fence has been a family owned business for 37 years. I called around and in addition to the best pricing, I had the most responsive service from Cleveland.
Starting with my initial phone discussion with Debbie in the office.. Debbie had a expert out to my house within 2 days to measure for my fence so she and I could plan together.
Once we had my measurements, I went to the showroom and she worked with me with styles and options. After placing my deposit and setting up my order, I called numerous times asking questions, sending photos and Debbie was so wonderfully patient and supportive.
The day of installation I was delighted with the arrival of such a well seasoned crew.
"Jan" the foreman, has been doing fences for over 20 years and the first day, he and his crew worked non stop for almost 10 hours straight. Right on site, they carefully customized pieces to fit trees and odd angles. I was astonished at the artisan skill and dedication to perfection. The wood is thick, strong, beautiful quality and the pressure treated posts are cemented in to last.
What a great experience - I love my fence ! I give this company my highest recommendation !nel
Installation was completed in a single (long) day. Installers worked diligently, and were careful of plantings. They were also careful to discuss details of the installation. Old fence debris was removed.
