Chris and Matt did an amazing job on our fences. Their work is top notch . They demoed our old fence and built back new all while working in 100 degree + weather! read more

A Cut Above Fence - Fences & Gates Near Me - Campbell, California

Due to winter weather, our backyard fence and gate were in dire need of an update. Apparently, so was everyone else's in Campbell as it took almost 2 months for ACA to come out for an estimate. They are a smal business that delivers better than normal results, and so they have a full dance card. And while their office correspondence is very friendly and helpful, turnaround can take a while since I believe there's only one office staff. But in the end, we got a beautiful, long lasting fence. Worth the wait! Deeper than typical posts, mounded cement to prevent rot, and screws instead of nails. All that adds up to a very solid fence. The team lead, I regret I missed his name, has over 30 years experience and is a marvel to watch work. 65' of fence and a 10' gate done in two days. Will certainly use again. read more

I need my fence repaired.I've contacted Chris at least 3 times and haven't even gotten a response at all. Very disappointed. Clearly, they don't care about customers! read more

No show for the quote and no call. Nice. I'm glad business is that good to blow off prospective customers. read more

I had an appointment on Monday that got rescheduled 4 hours before the appointment. I called on Tuesday to confirm our Appointment for Wednesday, the next day, only for them to be a no show. They also didn't answer when I called. Thank you for wasting my time. read more

I've had the opportunity to observe Chris and his team complete 4 different fencing projects now - one for my two closest neighbors, which prompted me to pursue replacement of a section of fence between us and our neighbor. I was so happy with the quality and value of our new fence that I retained Chris/ACA for a major fence repair at my mother's house (9 failing posts needed buddy posts, but thanks to skillful work by ACA none of the planks needed replacing). I didn't think twice before contacting Chris when I had a problem with a different section of fence at our house. Chris went out of his way to install buddy posts where the existing post bases had rotted out, even though he had to jackhammer out a section of the concrete pad in the tiny space between the shed and the fence in order to dig the shaft for the new post and place the piling correctly. Backbreaking labor, time constraints and difficult problems that would have had a lesser craftsman refuse the job - nothing stopped Chris from doing the job skillfully, perfectly and for a very reasonable price. ACA gave us comparable pricing on their quotes, but even if there price was the highest, the quality of their work far outshines that of the other fencing contractors I've had to work with for my mom's place, for our house and for a rental property. I would think myself a fool for considering anybody else for a fencing job now. ACA is a small business and they are very busy with jobs, so plan ahead and ask for your quote far enough in advance that a slight wait doesn't affect your job. If you want good value and long lasting build quality, you'll be able to be patient enough to get into Chris' schedule and you'll be so glad that you did! read more

We had an 85' fence installed by A Cut Above. First of all, Chris was fantastic. When I texted him, he texted me back. When I called him, he called me back. As to the fence, the finished product is gorgeous. It is 7' with triple lattice and 4x6 posts. I know it's just a fence, but it is really beautiful. My neighbors are so envious. The crew was polite, they were on time, and when they were done, my yard was immaculate. They cleaned up as if they were never there. Chris' price was right in the middle and I could not be happier. They are also coming back to repair a different fence that was damaged during the wind storm a few months ago. The bottom line is, choose A Cut Above, and you'll be thrilled that you did. read more

A Cut Above Fence - Fences & Gates Near Me - Campbell, California

Chris did a great job on our good neighbor fence. He uses SCREWS and not nails that can pull out. Our job was particularly hard, as he had to struggle with ivy growing over from the neighbor's side of the fence. He had to do some chiseling away of the concrete walkway as well. A couple of the boards had split after the new fences and gates were installed, so I called Chris who promptly came back and replaced them. He is a little difficult to get ahold of though. You'll get the answering machine but give it a week and you'll get a call back. read more

These guys do fantastic fence work. During the December 2014 high wind storm a 40' section of my fence came down. I did the usual research and settled on A Cut Above Fence and Deck based upon some past reviews and being a member of the BBB. Chris was very professional, on time and on budget. Surprisingly, they were very quiet during the whole installation process. They are very thorough, detailed and install fences in the correct way. I will use Chris again in the near future to replace my gate and to re-do the fence line down the other side of my house. I would highly recommend A Cut Above! read more

A Cut Above Fence - Fantastic fence work! Thanks A Cut Above - Fences & Gates Near Me - Campbell, California

See all

I have a fence installed by another company that was leaning at quite an angle into my neighbor's yard. Chris fixed it completely by pouring a deeper level of cement and resetting the post. He also fixed another nearby post that was starting to become loose with a nail poking out. Chris is a real pro, very knowledgeable and skilled about what he does, as well as courteous and punctual. Definitely "a cut above"! read more

The team built a beautiful fence at a fair price in a timely manner, what else could you ask for? They worked around unexpected piping in the ground, and I ended up being more satisfied than I could've imagined. Sometimes I just go outside to look at the thing! read more

I loved working with A Cut Above/Chris! I'm a little late on my review as he did my fence in May. Chris was awesome, very polite, showed up on time, cleaned up everything really nicely. He even removed a little wasp nest I was afraid to go near. Chris also helped me with a big tree, he gave me different options, costs and potential future issues for the fence as the tree grows. I recommend them 100%, he was honest and answered all my annoying questions. Yes, they may be a little bit more expensive but you get a very nice, high quality, beautifully executed fence and great customer service. I will be using them for my other side fence hopefully soon! Use A Cut Above, you will not regret it!!! read more

Chris was friendly and easy to work with. He built us a great-looking fence and we're pleased with both the quality and workmanship. Wish we had used him to build our back fence! He kept in touch during the hectic scheduling process and finished our fence by the time he had promised. I highly recommend A Cut Above! read more

Super pleased with the diligent work Chris and his team completed on a new fence/gate - for our home and for several neighbors in parallel. It was a lot of work in hot conditions, and they were dealing with backorder issues from the lumberyard. In spite of all that, the staff were always friendly and worked very hard each day. They took care of all the small details that I requested along the way as well. This is a company that does quality work with integrity, and I highly recommend them. read more

Our side yard fence was starting to rot and fall apart, which was a problem for us as that fence keeps our dogs from getting out to the street. Luckily we had worked with Chris on replacing our front fence, so when the side fence needed to be replaced we went back to him. He was able to get on his schedule quickly, and he gave us very competitive quote. Chris and his crew worked quickly to knock down the old fence and replace it within only a couple of days. The fence looks great, and both my wife and I appreciate Chris's positive customer experience throughout the process. 10/10 would recommend Chris for anyone's next fencing project. read more

We recently had a good neighbor fence built. Our neighbor set up all the arrangements, but as to the fence it is a great looking fence. I met Chris, who asked if I has any concerns. I also spoke to a couple of the crew who were quite nice and who worked hard. The fence is 85ft long and they were done in two in a half days. Everything was cleaned up and you wouldn't have know anyone had been there, except for a brand new fence. read more

I called a couple weeks ago and spoke with Chris to set up an appointment for an estimate. He set the time for June 25th between 9am-11am. I agreed to the time. Today, I called around 940am, leaving a message reminding the company of the estimate. My time is valuable. I haven't received a call back and nobody showed up to give me an estimate. It is 1130am This irresponsibility tells me the company isn't detailed oriented and show no respect for possible potential customers. There will be down days again when contractors need business to survive. I wouldn't recommend this company. read more

Excellent service! Had them put in a fence with lattice in our backyard. They were on time, friendly, didn't make a mess, and got the job done on time. We will totally hire them again to put up other fences in our yard. I recommend them to everyone and commend them on their excellent and friendly service! read more

They did a great job on the fence installation. But when the gate broke on a very windy day it was virtually impossible to get ahold of anyone. I understand there is a lot going on right now. But it took over 5 calls & texts to get them to respond and come out to give an estimate for repair. They told us to make an appointment for the repair and again took over 5 calls and texts to get a call back. I missed their one return call...and over 3 texts and 2 calls later no response. Texted them today to let them know we went with another company for the repair. Got a response then :/ But not a helpful one and no apology. Even though from needing the repair to now, this has been going on for over a month and a half. That's how long we have been trying to get a repair set up with them. I work with many families I could have referred them to. But why would I ever want to go through the hassle again? :( read more

After Chris and I went over the job . We agreed on a start date. His team was on time and got right to work. These guys are the real deal. Solid quality work. They installed a good neighbor fence , side dual gate and a close off. Everyone on both sides of the fence was impressed. People walking by were saying how nice the fence looked. I would use them again. read more

Previous to this job, I had Sierra Lumber do a major fence install. They did a good job, but broke my sprinkler system (which they said they would repair, but never did). I contacted A cut above and Chris came out to give me a quote. Very reasonable prices and will to work with a budget. On the day of the actual job, Chris and one other worker and completed the job in a day! The quality of work was terrific. He uses screws instead of nails, so if a board becomes damaged its very easy to replace. Overall the fence looks better than the one I had Sierra Lumber and I wish i went with A Cut Above for my last project. I definately recommend this company and will be untilizing them in the future. read more

I made an appointment for a quote, via yelp messaging. They offered 9/28 with a window from 12-2. I agreed. They never turned up today. Never texted or called. I had to be elsewhere, left the house shortly after 2 pm. If they can't make an appointment on time, I don't think I want them to make a fence for us! We have other quotes already anyway.---- Later this afternoon: Chris did call ---at 2:30. He said his previous job went overtime, and the client just kept talking and talking. Yikes. We just don't deal with companies that can't be bothered to call or text if they know they're going to be late for a given window. read more

I had A Cut Above do my back fence about 6 months ago. The owner did the work with one other long term employee (an Islander type guy). They were on time, didn't make my wife feel uncomfortable, did a WONDERFUL job and were very nice. As an engineer, I was pretty involved with the job and I was very impressed. He must have have a friend at the lumber yard because my 65 foot fence has ZERO knots in the wood. At any rate, I will have them come back for my side fences someday. read more

I am extremely happy with my fence, gate and planter boxes. Chris is a true professional and knows his trade very well. He is always on time and meticulously clean. I would definitely hire Chris again and recommend him to build your fence or deck. read more

Chris came to my house and help quote my fence, he gave very reasonable quotation. He also helped evaluating my fence door and told me it is in good condition, which release my concern. Thank you! read more

Chris and his team put up new fence in our yard in Sunnyvale. They did a great job, the new fence looks so nice! We were very much satisfied with the prices and the quality of the work. My two year old daughter loved to check the holes for the post if they're deep enough and as she fit (with our help of course) in all of them, I guess they were. :) read more

Needed a wood fence replaced at my son's home in San Jose. Left a voice mail on 4/7/14 at 2:19pm and as of 4/22/14 have not had a response. This is the second fence company that did not return phone calls. Subsequently a 3rd did not respond to a voice mail. The owner Chris has been extremely responsive to what was apparently an error, and has offered to do whatever is necessary to correct the mistake. Based on his high Yelp ratings, and in light of his efforts, I can only assume that he runs a 5 star company, as most do not care enough to follow up with their customer's negative comments. Based on this and the fact that I moved on to another vendor and did not use them for the actual fence replacement, I am unable to provide a 5 star review. I have therefore upgraded my review from 1 to 4 stars. If you are in need of a top rated fence company I would not feel bad suggesting this company. read more

I needed a gate put across the driveway of my house, and hired A Cut Above to do the work after collecting a few estimates. Chris was punctual both over email and on the day of the job. His price seemed fair based on what I got from other companies, and I'm quite happy with the result. He also spent some time advising me on how to sink a couple poles for a clothesline in our backyard. Rather than fishing for more work, he talked me through how to do the job myself. I would definitely look to hire him in the future. read more

We reached out to Chris to request a quote to replace our back fence after our dog managed to kick a few planks in. This fence was on its last legs so if our dog hadn't damaged it a small gust of wind probably would have. Chris responded quickly to my request for a quote. He showed up on time to our appointment. We met with him and one other larger company. We decided to go with Chris because we liked the fact that he would be on the job working with his crew ensuring that the fence was built to his standards. His quote also was the exact same as the other company and we wanted to support his small business. We were lucky that when we called to let him know we wanted to book that he had a cancellation and could fit us in the very next day. They showed up on time and were able to quickly get the fence built. The fence is beautiful and even with her best attempts my dog has not been able to damage the fence. Thank you Chris! read more

I had a auto go through a 20 foot section my fence on Monday and a new fence was installed on Thursday. This was a day ahead of schedule. I have two bull dogs that were going crazy with the section missing. Everything is back to normal...Chris and his team exceeded my expectations!!! Thank you so much! Linda read more

Great experience with A Cut Above. Tessie was very responsive to my calls, and they were able to squeeze our small project into their busy schedule. Our existing fence was starting to lean to the point where it was about to fall over. The team came in and placed additional support posts, which was quick and cost-effective. The fence is now back to 100% (or maybe even stronger than it was when first installed). I would definitely give them a call for my next fence repair/project. read more

The owner, Chris, did reach back out and explained his circumstance that his company is a small company so could not call back to all customers in time. Thus, for working with A Cut Above Fence & Deck, please note that it may take longer to get scheduled and started due to the smaller size of company. Please keep that as a consideration based on the types of work and urgency of your project. read more

I contacted Chris to put in a small fence to act as a blind in front of my Central Air compressor (city code requires it). It was amazing! he came out and gave me a quote both for the blind alone, as well as for fencing in the front yard. He was very nice and the pricing seemed quite reasonable. I ended up just getting the blind put in because I'm having some other yard work done in near future, but I will have him come back to put in the front yard fence soon! The quality of the work is incredible. It looks so great! He called me the day after to talk about aftercare (mostly just "leave it alone for a few weeks" haha) and to make sure I was happy. The job was scheduled quickly, and I believe it took only a few hours; I didn't even have to be there! 5 stars, can't wait to have Chris come back and do more fencing for me. read more

I needed to have one gate fixed and another replaced, so I asked several companies for quotes. Chris got back to me very quickly, came out to take a look, and got me the quote within a couple of days. I went with A Cut Above Fence, and it was a really good decision. The price was fair, and Chris managed to schedule it within a couple of weeks. He was really good about communicating about when he'd be here, stuck to that, did a fantastic job, and is wonderfully friendly. I'll be calling him again every time I need fencing done. read more

Chris and his team did a great job for us. Estimate, schedule, and work done all in line with what was promised. In addition, Chris handled some small fixes that wasn't part of the quote. Above all, the fence looks great. read more

I first worked with A Cut Above Fence & Deck over 3 years ago to get an estimate on a custom RV parking enclosure fence I had in mind. During that time, Tessie was always the person I spoke with on the phone, while Chris did the estimate and consultation. I ultimately didn't go through with that project, but I appreciated the friendly professionalism they both exhibited. About 4 months ago, Tessie happened by the house, walking her dog while I worked in the yard. She called me by name from the street! I couldn't believe that after 3 years, she remembered exactly who I was. And she took the time to chat with me some more about fence ideas I had. Having this kind of rapport with the community really makes people feel more like family than customers. Fast forward to last month (Nov 2016). The side fences in my backyard were starting to become distorted due to neighbors' (on both sides) tree roots lifting up the ground. One side in particular was already beginning to come apart from the stress, and I knew I needed to get it resolved quickly. This time I thought of no one else but A Cut Above Fence & Deck. Local? Check. Friendly? Check. Professional? Check. High Quality? Check. I called Tessie and arranged for Chris to come by to estimate this new job, and he answered all my questions. When he was done, he even offered to help me set a new 4x6 post for a separate gate I'd built in another part of the yard. He really went above and beyond; if I hadn't already been sold on A Cut Above, I was then! I decided to start with just one side of the yard (52 feet) where the fence was actually coming apart and was able to schedule the work within 2 days. On the day of installation, Chris and his crew arrived not only on time, but 4 minutes early! The work was done by mid-afternoon, and the fence looks exquisite. The crew were respectful and cleaned up after themselves. I'll definitely use A Cute Above Fence & Deck again ... and soon, when I do the much longer fence on the other side of the yard. When a company offers high quality work AND first class customer service, I keep them on speed dial! read more

The only Fence company I'd use. I've referred to family and friends and they are professional, courteous and do great work. Don't be cheap, use the best and it'll get the results you want and last longer. Great company, Chris is the best. read more

Chris and his team finished my fence today. The entire experience of working with Tessie, Chris and his team was great. I selected them from the excellent reviews I saw on Yelp. I called them in the wake of our winter storms after our fence had blown down, when everyone was calling them. Tessie was straight with me from the beginning, managing my expectations. They were very busy. Chris showed up on the date promised to give me a quote. Clearly proud of the work he and his team deliver, Chris took time with me to explain how he differentiates ACA's work from others. His quote was highly detailed, unambiguous, included graphics and was competitively priced. I was wowed, honestly. So I chose them. When we got close to the scheduled start date. Tessie contacted me to ensure once again that my expectations were being managed. Chris and his team showed up as promised and on time. I surprised Chris with a damaged fence post that he had not included in his original quote. I was fully expecting that he might have to come back at a later date to take care of that for me. He then surprised me by telling me that his team would take care of it while they were here, and at a reasonable price. Sweet! The team didn't leave a scrap of trash or material. The fence looks great and the craftsmanship is definitely a cut above. I am a happy camper. Here's the kicker; we had a bit of a communication breakdown that concerned me. I communicated with Tessie about my concerns. She called Chris, and the issue was immediately resolved in the most professional manner. Again, I was very pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend this company. I will not even consider using another fencing contractor in the future. A+ you guys. Thank you. read more

Owner Chris Huber is a fence pro! He really knows what makes a solid, quality fence and he stands behind his work. He and his crew just replaced an old section of fence along the side of my corner house. Four years ago, "A Cut Above" built another section of fence in my yard and it is holding up very well. He was hands-down my choice for this most recent project. The job was done professionally and the crew cleaned up the work site perfectly. While work was in progress, neighbors stopped by to comment on how beautiful the fence was and to ask for Chris' card! I highly recommend "A Cut Above" for your next fence job. read more

This is my second time that I am using this company for fence. Tessie is so nice and answers all my questions gracefully. Chris, the contractor, is a professional customer oriented person who came out and did the job. I had some minor issues with the fence that he corrected it in a timely manner. Thanks. read more
