AmeriDream Fence and Deck - Fence - Fences & Gates Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

On August 12th, I called AmeriDream Fence and Deck after a recent windstorm damaged my fence. They texted me back and requested pictures. I complied and sent them a picture of the damage. I waited for them to reply to me for about one week. Then emailed them again, requesting that someone call me with further instructions on how to get my fence repaired. Mind you that the fence is only 2 years old. Needless to say, I never got a reply to my email, text, or phone call. I should have known getting them to respond was going to be a problem. Because I had a bad experience when they were installing the fence. They put the gate lock on backward and did not glue down the fence picket caps. I would never recommend this company, not even to my worst enemy. read more

AmeriDream Fence and Deck - Broken fence - Fences & Gates Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

If I could give ZERO stars I would. Worst company I have ever worked with! no one at the office ever answered the phone and it takes days for them to return call! The Tom I made four phone calls to him with messages as well as text messages before he finally call. of the 10 AM and then had to leave because they have enough materials. I was told they would be at 8am. When I finally got a hold of someone at 10:30am, they informed me the crew would not be back until 3:30pm that day! when I told them this was completely unacceptable and asked to speak to the owner, the office manager told me, "good luck with that" and hung up on me! When I spoke to Tom about my issues, his statement was, "Oh don't make me explain this to you"! Again WORST company ever! read more

The installers have no respect for plants and flowers you planted in the yard. They walked and trampled my wife's memorial flower garden for her son's passing. They could have installed the fence on the other side of the property but was too lazy to do that for us. Otherwise the fence looks good. Decent price. read more

The good and the bad. GOOD: 1. Tom is friendly and easy to talk to, he reminded me an old friend I use to know...which is why I decided to go with AmeriDream 3. Price was good.* (see bullet point 3) 2. The cedar would looks beautiful now that is done * (see bullet point 5, however) BAD: 1. Consultation: showed up to the wrong address 2. Had me file my own permit 3. Took measurements, for only a 3rd of the perimeter, and proceeded to tell me, he didn't quote us for the rest of the fence. Yet at the start at our conversation I said I had a small dog I would like to keep inside the fence hence why we're replacing it. He assumed because my neighbors fence is already up that I didn't need that portion; but I said we'll need that section fenced in as well. The neighbors fence has gapping wholes at the bottom. When they showed up to start, they said they would need to charge me additional 2k for the uncounted side of the yard. 4. 3 days before the work started: we called to verify the aforementioned area because our neighbor wanted to make sure they didn't remove his fence. AmeriDream confirmed and said we'll need to make space between you and your neighbors fence to accommodate for the our fence next to his. 5. 1 week after their work was complete, a warped board started to show on the street side of the fence.* 6. I called to pay my balance after the work was complete. They did not have their additional 2k accounted for in their total. So I paid and thought, that sounds about right; they haven't struck me as organized thus far. 7. A few days later, I get a message for the invoice of the additional 2k. I paid it immediately. Becuz I'm ready to be done with them; as I'm sure the reader of this post is by now...sorry to say that's not all. 8. A few weeks later I get a call from their office asking me, when will I be able to pay the rest of my balance. (See bullet point 7). I said, "it's been paid, for quite sometime now." They apologized and hung up. 9. I was NOT going to write this diatribe; but after that lovely call shortly ago; this is officially my wits end. Hope this helps future buyers. read more

I was initially very pleased with the fence installed. Less than a year after the installation, the gate blew off during a storm. I have made countless calls and texts to get this fixed. I am sure it would not have take much for them to fix it or at the very least call me back. They asked me to send pictures which I did and they never got back to me. I ended up having to get someone else fix it because I have kids and dogs and needed that gate repaired. Ended up being a very unfortunate experience. They do not stand behind their work. read more

We have just short 1/4 acre backyard and needed an existing wooden fence taken out and a new metal one installed. Tom, our sales guy was wonderful, and responded quickly with any questions I had. The workers were fantastic and finished the job in one day! They also cleaned up everything from the yard. Would highly recommend AmeriDream Fence and Deck! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Ameri Dream Fence and Deck company! From the start to the finished project, we could not be happier.

AmeriDream Fence and Deck - Our new fence and our happy pup, Zoey! - Fences & Gates Near Me - Joliet, Illinois

FENCE DEFECTS I don't recommend AmeriDream and won't hire them again. This over $10,000 project was a FUBAR re: Sales, Zoning, Billing, and execution. Salesman Tom S. came out Oct 23rd to view the property and take measurements, as you'd expect. He said the neighbor's existing fences wouldn't prevent installing our fences back-to-back. Turns out, t's actually a zoning violation. He suggested we "let neighbors know we can take down their fence, if they want." They declined. Installation was scheduled for Nov 17th. Two weeks passed without hearing from AmeriDream. Nov 26th, I texted Tom, "never received a receipt...when is work scheduled to begin?" He replied, "Office is closed...I'll have them email the receipt...installation is this coming week." Dec 6th, workers dug unnecessary 3-foot-deep holes through our lawn and garden where no fence can be placed (East/West). The Village came to inspect for code and realized they were working from an illegal permit; the application indicated "no existing fences". If neighbors agreed to remove their fences, AmeriDream would've needed to submit their agreement in writing with the permit request. Tom S. had to have known this before sending a crew to destroy our lawn. We agreed to have them install the legal part of the project at the lesser cost of approx. $2,600. Dec 8th, the crew returned and completed the work over 3 days. Still no receipt or refund for the difference between deposit and revised cost; $310. While they worked on the South gate, I told the crew chief the West gate was installed backwards. He said, "OH, that's the direction my company always has us install them." I asked, "Then why did you ask two days ago, which direction I wanted them?" He said; "Oh, actually we can't install them in the direction you want because the [slab] next to the house prevents us from digging that hole as deep as the hole on the other side. So, it wouldn't be as stable." This gaslighting had no effect on me, they'd dug the holes and had them inspected by the village long before asking my opinion. The South fence looked great, but the three gates did not have a professional appearance, with the following defects: West gate: backwards, stained with oily tread marks, missing handles. East gate: backwards, jams at the top and needs to be trimmed, missing handles. South gate: backwards, cut ragged, crooked, missing handles. Overall, this project was sloppy. They left behind thick mud all about our walkways, patio, and in our garage. I spent two days cleaning this sticky mess. They filled in the holes they didn't need, but didn't tamp them down. There were mud mounds along the East and West sides; until rain came and settled them, making them 1-foot-deep holes. Dec 13th, AmeriDream left a voicemail saying they hung the [South] gate crooked because "the ground is not level." This didn't make sense. The bottom is straight. The rails and the top are crooked. Also, the ground is not level under the other two gates, yet those are straight. This same day, the refund owed was put in wrong; charging more instead of refunding us. This took a week to correct. They finally provided a receipt. Dec 14th, they scheduled a crew to correct the gates Dec 19th. Dec 19th, the crew "called in sick". Dec 20th, the crew (one guy) came out. He repeated the excuse as to why the crooked gate had to remain that way. I showed him how to hang a gate straight using shims. Following my instruction, he removed/replaced the crooked gate, trimmed the East gate, added handles to each gate, and repaired the direction of the West gate but didn't clean stains from it. I'm glad my neighbors declined to have them work on their property. God knows what complaints may have arisen. The one thing they did right was hire Jessica as receptionist. She's intelligent, empathetic, and professional. She walked me through every step of getting this corrected. I wish every AmeriDream employee were as committed to excellence as she is. read more

The team of 3 workers did an excellent job on the fence. Four hours from start to finish on my 100 ft. Job including a gate. It was a hot day, but they kept on going. ( I helped a little by supplying cold waters) The only issue I had was they splashed some cement on some flowers and grass, and some brown spots on the grass turned up the next day where they placed tarps for loads of dirt/clay that they picked up to take away. Those spots are starting to green up a week later. I would recommend AmeriDream for their quality work start to finish, especially Joe our salesman for all his attention to our satisfaction. read more

These guys scheduled fast and did great quality work in not a lot of time. The team was very professional and also patient. They took the time in the middle of their install to ask us if we were interested in a couple minor changes to our fence gate locations, and I'm glad they did. We were very appreciative of their suggestions and glad we were able to make the changes on the spot with no additional cost. The whole process exceeded our expectations. read more

AmeriDream Fence & Deck Inc. The reason this company is getting one star is because we love our new fence! BUT, what it took to get this new fence installed was a joke! We told our sales guy, the fence needed to be moved out further on one side, to the property line. Their workers came and I talked to the lead person about moving the fence out to the property line and stacking the old wooden fence, which he had to call the office and have someone translate. Once they had all the holes dug and the post in, we realized they move the fence further into our property line, instead of moving it out to the property line, including cutting into our cement pad (which wasn't in the contract)! After a crew chief came out and we got that all straightened out, we then noticed they installed the wrong latches, as we should have had locks and handles, which we tried to tell the workers, but we're told this is what we were getting. We met again with our sales guy after all is said and done, my fence was never moved out to the property line (which we said leave it at this point!) and they left smudge marks, blood and dirt one a brand new white fence I paid just under $9,000 for! I'm embarrassed that I have a beautiful new fence that looks like crap! This is not including the mess they left behind including cigarette butts around my back yard! Thinking about it, I'm wondering how they expect their employees to read a contract and plot of survey, when they need a translator to tell them where to stack the old fence! After talking to the company, they came out to clean up...but they DID NOT clean the fence and left us non-smokers to clean up the cigarette butts before I could let my grandkids play out there! They ended up hauling away our old fence for free, but I still need to hire someone to clean our fence or spend a day doing it ourselves! It's was embarrassing and sad, when my neighbors even commented how dirty and nasty (blood marks from your employee) you left my new fence! I'm confident the owners of the company would not accept this kind of work at their homes! It's sad as you can see in the photos, this is how my fence looked after they were supposed to come back and clean it! read more

We hired Ameri Dream to replace our crumbling fence. They were amazing. Tom, our sales rep explained everything about the type of fence and how it would be installed. They took care of getting the permit from the city and their crew arrived at 9:00 am, pulled out the existing fence and were done by 2pm. They hauled away the old fence and dirt with them. Competitive pricing and a job well done! We love the new fence. read more

We recently had a fence installed by Ameridream. It was a great experience from start to finish! Our sales person was terrific! He was friendly, knowledgeable and his communication was great! The price was very fair and in line with other estimates we had received. The office staff provided consistent communication through the permitting and scheduling process and the installers, WOW! They were fantastic!!! Friendly and super hard working! They did a great job installing the fence and left our yard clean and looking better than when they arrived! We love our new fence and would highly recommend Ameridream! read more

We had our fence installed. To paraphrase the saying, cheap isn't always a good idea. I was given an installation date of August 2 at $9,900. I was nervous because it came in lower than the 5 other estimates I'd received. Additionally, it was mis measured (though, to there credit, they did not increase the price after realizing they undercalculated). The agent also arrived minutes late to the appointment. I was willing to look past the red flags because, honestly, the price was a lure. So I booked it. Weeks later, I checked in to make sure we were on schedule to start. Deposit had been paid and the sales agent had been informed that the survey would be ready for pickup when it was time for them to pull the permit. However, when I called to check in, he didn't remember that portion of our previous conversation. Instead, he told me that I had not provided the survey, and as such would not be installed on the agreed upon date. I was livid, because not once in the weeks I had been waiting had I been informed of the change of plans. The agent then informed me that he would secure the survey "now that he knew he was supposed to". The date was moved to the 8th. I again called back near that next date, as I had not been contacted with time frames. I was again told that there would be no installation because, guess what, I had not pulled a survey. I was very vocal about the lack of communication and very upset. I decided to go to the village myself to get the survey since it was proving to be problematic. When I arrived, I was informed that the survey had already been picked up by the contractor. I suppressed my ever-growing frustration at the horrible communication practices and lack of accountability of this company. I prepared for the next date of the 19th. There should be no further issues. Guess what, there would be not installation on the 19th either. Why? Because they never pulled the permit. It took me threatening refund and cancelation (I really should have, but I worried about another 8 week delay from another company). The installation date ended up being the 26th. It was partially completed on that day and the crew didn't return until 2 days later due to heat. When they were done, the fence looked nice, but here were a couple of damaged panels. The agent who promised to be there on install day and to do a final walk through, never showed. I did get an invoice though requesting payment. I said, "Sure. When the agent comes out to walk through some of my concerns." He came then; he answered my quality control questions and scheduled a service for the damaged panels. He also promised that I could have handles installed as long as they were on-site when the service date came. No date was given. I was told that I would be contacted with a service date. So, I waited. Guess what. I did receive a service date. It was given to me the night before the service would be done. Perfect amount of time for me to make arrangements to be there and not out and about. No, not really. They gave me a window of 2-5pm. They showed up at noon. They had no idea what needed to be fixed. I was not home. So my husband had to pause work and figure out which panels of the large yard fence had been included on the work order. Then, we had to convince the contractor to install the handles, because he did not have that information included on the work order. At this point I was willing to YouTube installing the handles, because I no longer wanted to deal with this company. The contractor did finally agree to attach the handles. The fence is done. I do not recommend this company. Yes, it was cheap, but it cost me on time, and stress energy. There is no consistency in communication or accountability. The most I got for my inconvenience, was the sales agent saying, "Sorry about the confusion. It was partially my fault." I won't do business with them again. read more

Ameri Dream fence company was recommended to me from a friend. Bert the salesman came out to my house and measured and gave me all the options of fencing they offer.

They were great to deal with for the whole process. read more

I am no longer a customer of Ameri Dream Fence & Deck. I had damages to my fence from the 7/13 storm and called them on 7/14 asking for a quote to fix my fence. I eventually received an email asking for pictures of the damage to that they could calculate a quote. On 8/2 I finally received a call with a quote and was scheduled for the next day. I was suppose to receive notification in the morning as to what time they would arrive. NO call, just arrived in the afternoon. The top rail that had to be replaced did not match the rest of the fence but not much I could about that. I went back in my house and the guy was back at my door 15 minutes later saying they were done. I was charged $450 for 15 minutes of labor. When I called to dispute the price I was told that the base price was $650, no matter how long they at the customers home and I was already given a $200 discount. They said there is nothing that can be done because I signed the quote and I should have asked how long it would take before I signed. I told her they should state that the charge on the quote was a base amount. So if you dont mind getting gauged, by all means give them a call read more

Great company, service and quality work. we loooove our new privacy fence! highly recommended

They were hired to put in a fence. First think in the morning, we hear music from Mexico blasting away. You could hear it four houses away. Ridiculous. We live in a respectable neighborhood. We work from home. Also, the workers were smoking pot while on the job. You could smell it 75 feet away. Between the Mexican music and pot smoking it sounds like these guys get paid for having a party on someone else's property. Whoever owns this company should be ashamed of themselves for this lack of professionalism and for letting workers do recreational drugs on the job. read more

We wanted a beautiful fence like my neighbors'. He referred me to AmeriDream. I am so glad I went with them.

I am highly satisfied. Tom and the manager were very knowledgeable, highly qualified experts and provided us with great information. Same with the whole crew. It was hard work, and they all did an outstanding job. We love our beautiful vinyl almond fence. Thank you Team. read more

After they took my deposit of $1,200, communication was scarce. There was no communication with me as to when my gate would be installed. Instead, I got a call the day before the blizzard began on December 22, 2022, telling me that the "scheduled" install for December 23, 2022, couldn't be completed due to the blizzard. Then, the Village Inspector shows up December 29, 2022, to inspect post holes, but no holes were dug. I had to call and complain before contractors show up on the same day who aren't able to communicate with me due to no fluency in English. These contractors brought wood panels that weren't even run through a planer. The pine panels look rough and dirty. This isn't how their product is presented online by the way. I made my concerns known to "Liliana" via text message and I also sent an email on December 30th, 2022, but this company isn't reachable via phone and has not responded to any of my emails. They dug holes onto my property near my foundation and left them open to the elements with no sense of urgency in getting this job done during a Chicago winter. I filed a lawsuit today and I pray the court finds in my favor. Do business with these folks at your own risk. read more

Outstanding fence quality materials. Nick went out of his way to assist us in installing a custom arbor at one of the gates. The crews attention to detail was amazing. They took down the old fence and took it with. We have a lot of landscaping and they were very attentive at caring for all the plants while installing the fence. We have had several people stopping by to admire the fence and asking who did the work. The fence has changed the entire appearance of our yard and we are extremely happy. Thanks Nick and crew. read more

If you like unresponsive companies, this is the place for you. Our salesman, Tom Keefe, does not answer his phone, emails or call back in a timely manner. The office is no better. They'll give you the old sales pitch that they have all the fences in stock yet we had to wait weeks for installation because they didn't have the fence in stock. Tom gave us one installation date and the office gave us another. The installers were good, no issues there. Once that was complete it took the office another 3 weeks to call and get the last payment. I highly recommend any other company. Also, be sure to check the work against the estimate because they did not follow through with what was provided on the contract and they say there's a cash discount, but there really isn't. read more
