The fence looks great. A couple of other contractors who do fences have been in my yard before and since and have voluntarily said that they did a great job. The lack of communication from the company before starting was a drawback--coming home to find the fence removed without notice was work was a bit of a shock. A plant or two in the flower beds got killed from being stepped on or covered in clay. And despite efforts, the final rubble/blocks were never removed from my yard. But these are pretty small complaints over a project generally well done.

I hired Naty in May 2015 to replace my rusty chain link fence in Shaw's historic district with a wrought iron fence. It's a large corner property, so it was a very long fence by city standards and it also had to meet with DCRA historic standards. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome. Naty came out to measure the property and meet with me to discuss the elements I wanted on the fence. He quoted two different options I was considering, which was helpful. The quote itself was the best pricing I had found after speaking with 5 or 6 other fence companies. Naty manufactured the fence, and had it ready for installation exactly when he said he would (actually finished the manufacturing early, but I hadn't pulled the permit yet). He scheduled a time for the guys to come out. His crew arrived in the morning and removed my old fence. When I got home from work, they were mostly done with installing the new fence. On the second day they completed the job and installed two gates. All the guys were nice, and worked very hard. I'm 3 months into my new fence and it has held up great on a heavy-traffic block (lots of guys leaning on it, the occasional bike locked up on it etc). The fence was hefty, and the ornamental spikes are substantial. It feels like a high quality product. I highly recommend Naty."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/md/beltsville/naty-iron-work-reviews-7602989.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"MILL TO YOU FENCES INC","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"MD","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Eddie S."},"reviewBody":"The two projects went well. Mr. Barry Potter arrived at my home shortly after being contacted, assessed my front and back yard areas and provided a cost estimate before leaving. Barry sent me an email the next day outlining what was discussed an the price for the job. I agreed via email and the plan was set in motion. Very easy process. Barry was able to start the project within a day or two as he had the materials for the cedar fence at his mill in Arlington, however, due to inclement weather, work was delayed for about a week. Due the weather delay, I changed the design by extending the fence all the way to the alley instead of stopping at 2/3 of the yard. In addition, I added a double door gate with a key lock and asked for six inch caps at the top of the fence to give it a more formal look. Barry returned a day or two later to take additional measurements and provided a revised cost estimate. Final estimate for the backyard was $6,600 and the front iron fence was $3200. $9,800 is a lot of money but I went all out on the design for the backyard fence but the backyard is large and it will be the main entertaining area so it had to be perfect. Barry's crew was awesome. They completed the back fence in two days. There was one issue where my outdoor AC unit was in the way of completing a small portion of the fence next to my house. Barry recommended an HVAC contractor that could relocate the unit to the opposite side of the house. The contractor came the next day and gave an estimate of $700 then completed the work the following day...while it was snowing! Barry's crew returned a few days later finish the back fence and another crew installed the front iron fence. Barry came to visit several times throughout the projects to ensure everything was meeting my expectations.

Wrought Iron Fencing Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Kensington, MD
They installed a fence in ~2005. I have already had them out once to fix a leaning post. $700. I now need the to come again a fix another part that's leaning. They've indicated they are not performing repairs at the current time. I need to call back in the fall.
Working with Ali and Ace was great. He was very specific and accurate in his estimates, drawing a careful diagram and marking the sections with different heights of boards, which were alternating boards or not, etc. My neighbor and I replaced our fences together and Ace did a good job...

Did not feel comfortable with this company since they didn't honor their original price."

"We were very pleased with our DanDale Experience. The sales team was really friendly and informative, they offered a few different pricing options, and they were able to build within 2 weeks of when the project got the green light from our HOA (other companies we talked with were more like 2 months). When we hit some snags with our HOA, Tyler helped us think through our options and pitch some creative solutions, which ultimately worked. The build itself is very high quality, especially given that our lawn has some slope to it. Finally, their warranty and customer guarantee is very solid and helps to alleviate the worry involved with significant purchases like these. We highly recommend this team!"

"A-1 fencing did a great job with my fence and deck. When we requested an estimate with A-1, they came right on time (actually came earlier because they were already in the area) and listened patiently to everything we wanted to get done. They took care of the city permit for our deck and fence while we took care of the HOA permit, which made it very easy for us since we only had to manage one of the permits. Cesar and the team at A-1 was very responsive to my emails, texts, and calls which I really appreciated. When building the actual fencing and decking, the workers were really polite and meticulous. Our house overlooks a pretty steep cliff and our door leading to the deck is very high, so I applaud them for being able to create something so beautiful for us given the conditions they were facing. Throughout the process, Cesar updated me on the timeline of everything and anytime I had a question, I could always call him and have my questions answered. The team at A-1 did an amazing job and I for sure would recommend them to my friends and relatives and anyone searching online."

Wrought Iron Fencing Repair questions, answered by experts
No, bleach will aggravate your rust problem and make it worse. Bleach contains sodium hypochlorite, an oxidizing agent, so applying bleach to metal will speed up oxidation, which is the issue that caused your rust spots in the first place. Do not use chlorine bleach or any cleaning products containing chlorine bleach to try to remove rust or to clean your kitchen sink, appliances or tools or you risk ruining the metal.
There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:
Are you licensed and certified?
How long have you been in the welding business?
Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?
Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?
Do you charge by the hour or by the project?
How long do you expect my welding project to take?
What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?
Rust, bent or broken bars, loose posts, and weakened welds are common problems that require repair to maintain security and appearance.
In most cases, wrought iron fencing will cause your property value to increase. Most types of fence—but especially high-quality wrought iron fences—make your home more secure and deter burglars, which adds to property value. Fences can also help keep children and pets safe, which most homebuyers will appreciate. Wrought iron fences are also highly decorative, and while they don’t provide much privacy, they do add to your home’s curb appeal, which often leads to higher home value.
Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.
By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
