Due to Paul's popularity, starting the project took quite a while. But once begun, work progressed quickly. We discussed details each day relevant to the fence design as I preferred to have a hands on approach to the decisions. Paul was great at listening and providing feedback from a professional standpoint on both what is possible from a wood worker perspective and what looks good.
The job site was cleaned up effectively and he even proactively picked up my dog's poop in the yard before I could get to it most mornings.
At the end, his attention to detail and fit and finish were excellent. I would highly recommend Fencescapes for any job.
From the moment we met Paul and he provided us with a very reasonable estimate of the cost of his work, we knew that we would hire him. He is, quite simply, a supremely decent man - interesting, intelligent, honest, unflappable, and extremely accomplished in his chosen work. We felt such confidence from his pleasing, open, and accommodating manner that we hired him without taking any further bids, something we would normally never do. Our instincts were not wrong.
Paul and his colleague showed up punctually each day of their work, and was unfazed and obliging when I decided to alter the design of the fence after the work had begun, due to a misunderstanding of fencing terms on my part. They worked quickly and efficiently, and the work took less time than we had thought it would. They were so unfailingly pleasant to have around, that we actually missed them when they finished the work and moved on to their next project. One neighbor, with whom we share a part of the fence, liked the results so much that she called Paul and asked him to extend the fence along an additional portion of her backyard. Other neighbors we share a property line with were ecstatic when they saw the new fence. The old fence, which another neighbor had installed years before we bought our house, was a mess of paint-splattered, broken down, poorly installed, loose scrap boards. We now have a gorgeous, properly installed, extremely solid, prettily-capped, golden-colored cedar fence, which we still receive constant compliments on. The only problem is that our house itself now looks shabby in comparison. If only Paul would branch out into house painting.....
They built two horizontal fences, one with an arbor, and both with gates. They seem well constructed, and he listened to what I wanted and made suggestions based on his experience when appropriate.
I have updated this review though because once spring came and I was in the yard more, I realized they had done a really bad job of clearing up the project. The large pile of "dirt" they had left in the garden bed was largely concrete rubble (clearing up the job was part of the bid, so this left me with a mess to deal with), and they positioned at eye level of the main gate post the dark manufacturing printing on the wood, a bit of an eyesore.
