They worked with me on figuring out how to hide a sump pump pipe and navigating through our neighbor's concerns. The build quality is very nice and the crew was great about making adjustments for issues we discovered during the build. They even made the back of the fence look nice for our neighbor by covering the sump pipe. Communication with Wilson and his onsite crew was great. They also did a very good job cleaning up. They didn't have the cheapest quote but I felt this is one of those kind of things where you get what you pay for. For something we see every day I wanted it to be right. Great job A1!

A-1 Fence Company absolutely deserves all 5 stars. From the first visit to the final walkthrough,…read moreMatt and his team made both my home project and my mom's fence replacement completely stress-free. Homeowner experience I hired A-1 Fence to replace an aging fence at my house, and the difference is night and day. Matt took the time to walk the property with me, explain options, and give a clear, detailed estimate with no surprises. The crew showed up exactly when they said they would, worked efficiently, and left my yard cleaner than they found it. The new fence looks fantastic, feels solid, and has already gotten compliments from neighbors. Work on my mom's house After seeing the quality of their work at my place, I had A-1 Fence come out to my mom's house for a much-needed fence and gate upgrade. Matt was incredibly patient with her questions, never rushed her, and helped her choose something safe, secure, and attractive. His team treated her property with real respect, checked in with her at every key step, and made sure she was comfortable with the plan and timeline. Knowing my mom now has a sturdy, professionally installed fence gives our family real peace of mind. Matt and his team Matt is the kind of owner you want on any project: responsive, honest, and deeply knowledgeable about fencing and gates. He returned calls and emails quickly, kept us updated on scheduling, and personally checked the work when it was done. His foreman and crew clearly take pride in their craftsmanship--every line is straight, the posts are set perfectly, and the finish work is meticulous. You can tell this is a long-standing, family-run business that cares more about doing it right than just getting it done fast. Why I'd recommend them Between my home and my mom's, we got consistent, top-tier service, fair pricing, and beautiful results from A-1 Fence. They handled everything--from removal of the old fence to the final cleanup--with professionalism and courtesy. If you're in the Bay Area and need any kind of residential fencing, I would not waste time shopping around; call Matt at A-1 Fence and you'll be in excellent hands.

I'm very pleased to share my experience with HH Fence and Deck Company following the recent…read morecompletion of a fence project at a San Francisco property. This was not my first time working with Leo and his team -- I've partnered with them several times over the past ten years at different properties, and they continue to exceed my expectations. Leo promptly returned my initial call and scheduled a site visit within just a few days. Shortly after, he provided a detailed quote, and we arranged the project timeline around his understandably busy schedule. When rain interfered with our original installation date, Leo was quick to coordinate a new date as soon as the weather cooperated. On installation day, Leo and his crew arrived on time and fully prepared. The team was outstanding -- communicative, professional, and respectful of the property throughout the entire process. At the end of each workday, the site was left clean and tidy. The project took nearly three days to complete, and I couldn't be happier with the final result. It was truly a pleasure working with Leo and his team once again. I would not hesitate to contact HH Fence and Deck Company for future projects and confidently recommend them to anyone seeking quality craftsmanship and dependable service.

A heartfelt thank you to Leandro, our Project Manager, whose leadership and coordination made the whole process feel completely seamless. We're also truly grateful to Cejana and Wesley for their knowledgeable deck consulting, Millena for her responsive and thorough customer service, Thalia for her beautiful design work, Danilo and Gabriel for their excellent hardscape craftsmanship and professionalism, and Sergio and Hector for their exceptional deck work. Throughout the project, the team was attentive to every stage of progress and worked incredibly hard. They were consistently organized, and at the end of each workday, everything was put back neatly and in order, which we truly appreciated. The finished backyard is truly a piece of art to us. It looks exactly like the renderings we fell in love with and has completely transformed our space into somewhere we love spending time in. We've already recommended Techwood to friends and family and would do so again without hesitation. Wishing this amazing team and the company continued success -- they truly deserve it!

Final results are beautiful, quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Very happy with all the work they did in the back of the house so we hired them to do additional work to the front of our house and replaced all wood with PVC product and all handrails and banisters with metal. They look absolutely gorgeous. I found their communication software very user friendly. Payment process was disclaimed at front based on milestones. Of course there's always glitches in the process and it wouldn't be fair to leave a review without mentioning them. 1- working to get architecture and engineering completed took a few months. 2- a significant surprising unsightly design change was not disclosed. There were additional costs to cover it up. 3- designer renderings showed all wood posts and joist in black paint but this was not included in the original cost, this was another significant cost increase. 4- all decks were to have lights on all railings, that was on the original contract. However, we were told later that the cost of an electrician was not included in our contract. This was yet another cost surprise. Overall, I am very pleased with everything as they addressed every single item that needed to be addressed and it looks beautiful. I will definitely hire them again, but just make sure to ask all posible questions no matter how silly to ensure that everything is included in that upfront quote and there are no surprises.

Please accept my deepest apologies for the poor review that I left before. He is very hard-working and he is a very honest man. It has been awhile since I have heard from Alex. A huge storm came in and tore down the Patio covering. When this happened, I called Alex to see what he could do to repair it. He responded once saying that he was gonna talk to his engineer, but I never heard back again from him. He has not responded. If you are going to get a Patio covering, it needs to last not just for six months or a year. The Patio recovery should last for years.

[The following was edited to provide a play by play to show I acted in good faith and communicated my concerns _several times_ before giving up.] We scheduled work to start on a Friday. The job was for a straight railing of about 11 ft to replace our old railing that was rotted out. I asked that the new railing be installed into studs, because the previous railing mounts were loose and I didn't want the same thing to happen with the new railing. The contractors didn't show up until 4:30PM that day. I helped them plug in the welder and they got to work removing the old railing and then installing the new. Several times the welder blew our fuse so I reset it. The crew left that night without a word. The next day I went to check out the work. The new railing was installed in the same place as the old, not in studs, was rounded around the corner and covering our mailbox, and had been spray painted in place, getting black paint all over our beige exterior walls. Needless to say I was extremely surprised at the job and what had been done. It was almost comically bad. Just see the attached picture. I called Roman to voice my frustration. I mentioned I was unhappy with the obvious things but also that the railing had not been secured (a few tugs on the railing would likely pull it out) and that the end of the pipe (because that was what was installed as a railing, plumbing pipe) was not sealed, leaving an unfinished, unprofessional look. He agreed to come back, remove the curved railing blocking my mail slot, paint the wall, and that he would address my concerns. Again, the crew came by late in the day (sensing a trend here, I think they were maybe overbooked and coming from another job, but I speculate...). The wall was painted and the curved piece was cut. That was it. The welds were obvious, seams were visible where returns had been installed, the spray paint was already chipping. I called Roman. I made very clear my frustration with the apparent lack of quality, that it seemed there was a focus on getting things done quickly rather than well, and that my concerns and requests weren't being addressed. He said he would come back and address my concerns. I sent a text also describing these concerns. He cancelled the next scheduled visit. He called a while later but at this point I had moved on and wasn't willing to engage further. I had only agreed to pay half of the job up front, so I wanted to cut my losses and move on. This was supposed to be what I thought would be a simple steel railing installation. It turned out to be quite the opposite. On the plus side, I only agreed to pay half up front. So there's that.
