I was told by the estimator that the wait was approx. 7-10 days out so we paid 50% deposit but then it took over 3 weeks to get the fence started.  This was also after multiple phone calls, several of which were unanswered after messages were left.  When they did arrive, they arrived early and worked hard and late however the fence lines are "wavy", some boards are not straight, we asked to have a few sections redone (but the workers were in a hurry as one had a court date the next day so they worked into the night) they left a mess all around the fence line of mud, rocks and debris.  Our neighbors were quite upset by the mess left in their yard and when they asked the workers if they planned to clean up after themselves, they replied no and that it wasn't their problem.  I have since tried to call the company to ask that the owner or manager come and look at the work and mess but no one has answered the phone.  I have however contacted a landscape company to help clean up the mud, rocks and debris left by this company - which makes the whole thing even more expensive.
Response from ACTION FENCE CO
"If my employee said "it's not my problem", he shouldn't have. He denied it. I told him that we have to be courteous not only with our customers but also with neighbors. It does state clearly on our contract that" The contract price is given with the agreement that the purchaser will clear all lines for construction of fence unless otherwise stated and properly marked with stakes or otherwise. It also states that we do not remove dirt from around post holes. Dan, our sales/ customer service person did inspect the fence and it was done according to standard workmanlike practices, as stated in the contract. We did not charge to do any landscaping work, nor was it stated on the contract for us to do any landscaping. The old fence was basically holding the gravel back that was piled up against it and when it was removed a small amount came past the fence line. If it is necessary for us to make some token attempt to promote neighborly relations, I would be willing to try and do that possibly. Anson Long"

The 2-sided fence area in the backyard which encloses the AC Compressor, pool filer, and pool equipment, was old and rotted. The gate was broken and the whole thing was an eyesore. Anson Long from Action Fence came the same day I called to measure the fence, approx 25 feet long. He emailed me an estimate within 2 days with a diagram describing exactly what was going to be done. He had said all the posts were rotted and needed to be replaced. I agreed. But the 2 gate posts were installed in concrete. So to save money and labor, yet keep the same dimensions of the enclosure, he recommended sawing those old gate posts down to the ground and installing steel boots in the concrete for the gate posts since we were going to shorten the gate opening from 54 to 48 inches anyway. Labor, teardown, takeaway, all new posts, cedar slats, cross bars, gate hinges, and latch were all included in the price of $770.00. This price also included the 2 steel boots for the gate posts. Action Fence was the only company which recommended installing new posts. The other fence companies said the old posts were ok to use and would 'save money', yet all their estimates were higher. I also liked that Action Fence uses email to send the contract and their program populates your signature. Very easy and no hassle. Since there was no hurry on the enclosure, Anson said he would fit me in as soon as possible which turned out to be just a week later.

They came to do the work on time. Previously, the cable and electrical providers had been out to our property to mark the lines underground.
We were out of town on the day they came to do the job and when we got home two days later we realized we had no Internet or phone service as the fence installers had cut through the lines even though they were clearly marked. We were greatly inconvenienced for several days.
The fence itself was acceptable. There are several spots where it is not level but mostly we are reasonably pleased with the appearance of the fence.

They created a 42-feet fencing with one portion having a height of 6 feet and the other of 4 feet. They replaced a gate and fencing between the patio and carport area and created fencing behind the shed too. They were very good. They were punctual and very easy to work with. The price was high, but they did very good work. I would use them again in the future if necessary.

My fence was partially down due to a past storm and high winds. The Action Fence company came out as they said and gave me an estimate. I called again to inquire about that estimate a second time and asked that the worker meet me at my house as 12:00 pm during my lunch time. He was very prompt and professional and gained my business. More than anything, the Action Fence Company exhibited excellent workmanship and my family loves the new fence.

Received proposal from two companies and decided to use Action Fence. Took down old fence. I then found out that we needed to have a permit from Germantown to move the fence, so it took some time to get the fence permit. Once the fence permit was secured, I scheduled them to come back out and install the fence. I supplied the gate and hardware, and the work was completed in two days

The whole process was painless. Jennifer (office) and Anson (sales) were both very professional and competent. The fence was installed within the time frame that was given to me. The quality of the work is very good. I will use this company again.

Action fencing did an average job of installing the fence. It does look nice. The wooden gate broke when the wind slammed it shut. Action Fencing would not cover that under its warranty nor stand behind the quality of their products. I had to pay to get the gate fixed. I would not recommend this company to others.
