Fence Scapes

Excellent work performed. Posts properly removed and re-installed with concrete. Trench under wire mesh dug and back filled so that wire mesh went below ground. This sealed the dog run area well. Green wire against the two split rail fence becomes almost invisible to the naked eye. Every thing cleaned up when work was completed.

Mark's crew was professional, friendly, and efficient. The project involved some areas of fairly steep slopes, so that added some complexity. They were up to the task. Start to finish, the project was completed in two days. The FenceScapes quote was as little as half what another quote was. On the strength of other Angie's List reviews, I went with them, and am completely satisifed.

Mark showed up almost on time for the estimate. He had the estimate immediately, and modified it in a couple of days when I added moving back the heavy gates. He scheduled it for two weeks out on a weekend (a small enough job for his workers to do on a weekend), and his workman were on time. (The first day they came an hour late, but Mark had the courtesy to call and let me know). His men were pleasant and hard-working and efficient. They ran into unexpected problem with the heavy gate, so they couldn't finish it on Sunday, and, they remedied that by coming on Monday to complete the job. It looks great. The whole experience was positive. He kept to his price guidelines even though there was more work than was expected. I would use Fence Scapes again in a heartbeat.

We had a picket fence installed and are very happy with it. The fence posts were set in concrete and the fence was custom built on site. It's a really great quality fence for the price. Mark's workers were very nice and courteous. They made sure they were building the fence to our expectations. You do need to be flexible with the estimated date for the fence to be built. Our fence was built two weeks after the estimated date. In the end we didn't mind the timing difference because of the price and quality of the fence.

We cannot trust that the gate won't open for unknown reasons and our pets get out, which has happened. Apparently the reasons for this aren't known. There have been some changes made which hopefully will help but that is not known yet. The gate closes VERY slowly, much slower than any gate we've had which is ridiculous. Supposedly this is for safety but this is way too slow.
The fence itself was nicely done.

From the beginning to the end I would recommend Mark and his crew.  Mark was on time with our initial appointment and kept us informed of where we were on his schedule as we went along.  The estimate was quick and fair.  We had some hiccups with the HOA but Mark was very patient, helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant when we had to choose a completely different fence than we originally wanted.  The crew was fast, efficient and clean.  Other than a new fence, you couldn't even tell they had been there!  Would highly recommend Fence Scapes!

They did a fantastic job.  It was a smooth job start to finish.  I would definitely recommend.

Their prices are good and Mark is a nice guy.  If that's all you're looking for, go for it.  We got very frustrated with the promises made that were not even close to being kept.  Timing was promised and then ignored for weeks.  The quality is very poor.  Edges of railing, that connect to the columns on front porch have 5+ inches of space.  Fortunately, the inspectors didn't catch this, so it passed.  We already have rust coming through at the points where the pickets meet the top and middle bars.  We had to ask that Mark come back and change out the stainless steel screws installed into a bronze railing.  Also, these screws were wood screws, so they didn't sit flat on the railing metal.  Details that should be obvious to a craftsman.  They drilled into our stone steps and installed the handrail posts and didn't plan on putting a "shoe" over this hole filled with concrete.

I had this done in the middle of summer - the busiest season so scheduling was an issue but that's to be expected even if it's a small job like mine, and it took time to get the order processed as the manufacturer is the same for most of the fence installers in this area.  The fence is beautiful and I am very pleased with the results.  My family and neighbors have made so many nice comments about how it has tremendously improved the look of my yard.  My only disappointment is that the double gate has to lock from the front yard instead of the back - I wish there had been more communication before that part was done.  It's not really noticeable from the street and is just a minor inconvenience.  The B for punctuality is due to one post was bent during the installation and it took some time to get it replaced - they did and it's great.  The pricing is a B because it was a small job and was still so expensive - only about $100 - $200 different from other installers - I think they were all overpriced for the job.  I got 3 quotes - one was higher and one lower - went with this company because of Angie's list reviews.

Good experience.

Mark was promp, pleasant and explained things in detail. He made adjustments to minimize the disruption of scenic views by the fence and worked well with our contractor.

They were very easy to work with and flexible. They did the work as promised and on time. Would definitely use them for a future job.

went great. on time, flexible, price as quoted, quality great, professional and easy to work with

They were very pleasant and cleaned up after themselves.  They also did some clearing before putting up the fence.  They worked even when it was extremely cold.  We were impressed with the work they did.  Mr. Morris, the owner, was very accomodating and friendly.

James was very great to work with.  He came the day I called in April and gave me a quote right then.  I had received two other quotes prior.  James's quote fell in the middle.  What made me go with him was how professional and how quick he was.  And let me tell you, I am so glad we did.  He started putting fence around our pool when we discovered upon opening our pool that we need to have a part of the pool repaired.  James was very understanding and agreed to finish the fence when we had the repair done so that we wouldn't have to take the fence down.  We did not call James back until October and he was over the next day to finish the fence.  It looks fabulous!!!  So very happy with our experience with British Fences.

Installation went great, quality of workmanship and the fence itself is excellent.

Mark did a great job.  He responded promptly to my request for a quote and provided it on-site.  He worked through customized details in a very patient manner.  His crew made a small mistake on one of the interpretations when he wasn't there, but they fixed it promptly and without frustration.  Mark was always very prompt with responses.  You could tell he was managing a lot of work, but to me that is a sign that he is doing good work and being kept busy with referrals.  I would use Mark again in a heartbeat.

99% of the 3 rail horse fence was superior quality at a great price.  Mark was very responsive to a couple small quality issues that arose.  I have used Fence Scapes twice now and would use them again.  That being said the main problem we had was 50% deposit up front to get in line, an estimated 2 month wait that turned into 3 months, Mark rarely returns your calls unless you are the next job, and sometimes not even then.  It seemed that there were always delays that put off the start of the job or it's completion.  Mark always had a variety of creative excuses, but I'm sure he was just squeezing in more lucrative jobs.
