On the positive side, Vadim and team at Alania we're easy to work with, professional, nice people, etc. We had some scheduling issues due to weather, Vadim fielding other jobs, and waiting for stain inventory, etc. But otherwise, they did a good job. On the negative side, his final invoice was 47% more than his original estimate. He says this is because I wanted two coats of stain instead of one, which still seems egregious to me. He needs to be more clear in his estimating. As part of replacing one of the fence posts, he accidentally cut through my sprinkler lines and did not tell me. The sprinkler was already shut down for the coming winter, and so I did not realize this until we turned it on next spring, which incurred an additional repair cost. Lastly, I discovered a board that he installed as being too short for where he installed it. This is a minor issue that he can easily fix, however, I have repeatedly asked him to come warranty his work and replace the board he installed, but he has ignored all my inquiries. I included 3 photos. One photo is a comparison that shows my neighbor's fence connected to mine so you can see the difference in the before and after. One is of the post that Alania replaced near my sprinkler line (obviously it did not go through the original post but was close enough to be damaged by the work). And finally, one picture is of the plank that is clearly not the right length. The quality of the work is good when done properly, but I don't know if I would use Alania again due to the bait and switch estimate and being non-responsive to a warranty issue. I'll revise this review if anything changes. read more
