"We used them 18 years ago for the first fence and are so happy with their work again! They were professional and on time. They worked meticulously around all the cables and wires and dug everything by hand and had ZERO cable slicing. When our neighbor replaced their fence just days later, they came back out and closed the gaps left by the neighbor's fence (annoying), with no extra cost to us! I highly recommend Aztec Fence Inc!"
"They did a phenomenal job. The crew was really fast and thorough. They had to clear some old brush from the old fence line. That was hard work and they flew right through it. The fence is beautiful . We are really excited about it. The customer service , Jessica was like talking to my sister or good friend. The gentleman who came out for the estimate was great too, very friendly. The price for the project was was surprising, so I said I accept that offer. I would totally recommend them, and I have already."
"John was awesome. He came out right away to give me a quote which was very reasonable. We were very lucky in that he was able to get in and install our new fence right away!! They did an amazing job and our dog Miller is very happy to be able to run around without a leash in the yard!! Would highly recommend him for any fencing needs."
"Hired for fence and gate install/ repair at my business and home. Luis is great. They took care of my fence at home the next day and did a A+ job. Would highly recommend!"
"I hired him initially to extend my front porch and then build a deck. He did okay, a lot of what he told me he was going to do he didn't, it was mostly minor stuff. The deck itself is solid and nice. I then asked home to come back and do part 2 which was to enclose the deck and he came and gave me an estimate and then he bailed right before work started. There was no money exchange but it messed up all my plans because by that time it was the middle of the summer. This is why I feel he only deserves a B rating."

"They did a fine job, however, getting in contact with them was incredibly frustrating. When we finally did get them, they would say, "We called you," but if they did, they did not leave a message. My husband gave them our house phone, cell phone, email address, etc. and still it was very hard to get a hold of them.
|
|Another thing that was nerve wracking for me was that they showed up with other people and wandered around our farm a couple of times, taking pictures. And they brought their dog who would bark and made our dogs bark, too -- plus they hooked her/him to the pasture fence a few times which made my animals nervous.
|
|They were very friendly and worked well when they were working. Once they started the job, they finished it in a timely manner. However, because it was so difficult to contact them, they lost out on another job that we had. They wanted to do the whole job (we would have liked them to do the brickwork) and gave us a quote for everything -- however, we wanted to deal with the contractor we'd already started working with -- he said that he would subcontract with them so they could do the brickwork (this is before we had really tried to work with A O Handy). After trying to contact them numerous times, and some of the other unease about their wandering around the farm, we decided to go with a subcontractor that the contractor knew.
|
|As far as using them in the future -- if we had a small job, my husband would consider them, he really liked their work -- as long as it wasn't something that had to be done in a timely manner since we wouldn't know how long it would take them to get back to us. My husband flat out said, "Please leave a message, so that I know that you called and when you plan to be here" and still they didn't.
|
|I don't know what the cost of the service was -- I'll have to ask my husband, who is not available this week."
"The project went great! My husband and I were extremely happy how everything turned out! All of the things we wanted were done right and very efficiently. T&A made sure all of our needs were met, while staying in the projected time it would take to complete as well as staying in budget. We will definitely be having them back to do our fence in the spring."
There’s no definitive answer to this question because dog owners and experts are conflicted about the efficacy and morality of electric fences. However, physical fences are typically considered a better option since they provide guaranteed containment for your pup, provided they are tall enough, and your dog can’t dig under them. Physical fences can also provide privacy, which might stop your dog from barking at people or animals walking by. Physical dog fences tend to be more expensive, but most homeowners find them to be a better option overall.
Clean regularly, inspect for damage, and seal or paint wooden fences to protect against weather.
You shouldn’t try to touch the electric fence, as it will shock you. Typically, the shock is low enough to be uncomfortable to humans or animals that come into contact with the fence. But an electric fence with high voltage, or a faulty fence, could shock you and cause serious injuries when touched.
While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again.
A bamboo fence can last up to 20 years when properly installed and maintained. Bamboo is a durable material, but to get the most life out of it, you should clean and seal the fence every few years. Staining the bamboo can also restore the appearance if the color fades over time. Use screws to fasten the bamboo, rather than twine, to ensure the bamboo fence stays together longer.
