This is the second time I hired Northland Fence, this time for a 6 ft privacy vinyl fence. The…read morecompany offered an incredible special for early birds, which allowed us to make a huge fence. The project cost $15,000. The fence runs around our 3/4 acre, encompassing much of the property. PLAN Maria created a beautiful plan based on information provided online for our property (as well as on her private portal). This enabled us to get the project off the ground before I even purchased the house. We scheduled the first install date one day after my house closing. THE INSTALL The installation is done in three stages. I hired a surveyor to mark the property lines. Northland fence ordered the public utilities to be marked out, and I chose to hire Zone One to mark my irrigation and septic (which turned out to be very useful). Next, a full day was spent installing the posts (the day after I purchased the house). Aaron was the leader of a crew of two, and he and I reviewed the placement of the posts in relation to the original plan. We tweaked the plan, and Aaron was helpful, respectful and very patient as I revised things on the ground during the day. Thank you for that! We were able to respect our neighbor's privacy and increase the gate size to accommodate my UTV for snow-ploughing in winter. FINAL INSTALL The final installation was scheduled for 30 days after the post install, but Northland Fence were able to accommodate us early and install a week after. That was an incredible surprise, and our dogs were delighted! A crew of three arrived: Jesse, Chuck and Bobby, and the guys worked from around 9:00am to 5:00pm to install our huge fence. They began without disturbing me, as I was working. When I came out, they updated me that the fence will be completed in a day. They were quiet and respectful of the neighbors, parking on the side of the property. They did a walk around the fence several times during install to ensure that everything was done right, with a final walk-through the next morning when they came to finish off one small part. This gave me time to do a walk-through also. I didn't find anything wrong. The fence was perfect. DESIGN I'll add that I chose a two tone design, at no extra cost. It turned out gorgeous! WARRANTY 10 year warranty from Northland Fence, and they recommend that we contact them with any questions or problems before we check with our home owner's insurance, should any problem arise. RECOMMENDED.

Our fence was installed yesterday Jan 6th. It looks good, and seems like a quality product. They…read morefulfilled the contract exactly. Just be sure to read and understand the contract before signing. We didn't, and that's on us. The contract stated 2 to 4 week completion for our fence. In our case, Northland came out on Dec 10th and removed our old fencing, set some of the new posts, then left by noon. They returned on Dec 26th to finish the remaining posts. They returned on Jan 6th and installed the fence. All of the crews were polite and respectful. Our project was completed 3 weeks and 6 days after they began. Our problem was that our dog couldn't use the yard and the deer - the reason that we needed the fence - invaded and ate our new $$$ landscaping. There's a reason that a competitor advertises that they use the same crew for the entire process, and get it done in a day or two. If we could go back, we'd have made a different choice.

Cory installed our privacy fence. There are a number issues I have with him. He doesn't communicate…read morevery well. We originally discussed the style and pricing. He installed our pickets UPSIDE DOWN, which i did not agree to. He got about a 3rd of it installed before I could see what he had done. The fence looked absolutely terrible. I'm not sure how he thought it was acceptable. I asked him to fix it and put the pickets how they're supposed to be. I also wanted the gate big enough to get my trailers in and out of the area. He barely made it big enough to get them in and out. The bigger issue I have with him is being THREATENED to remove my gates after not paying extra for HIS mistake. We paid a lot of money for a mediocre fence. He wanted a large fee for a mistake he made. Beware of this guy. He's no good.

They didn't show up and never contacted me to let me know they weren't coming. I called them a few times over the course of two weeks but nobody answered or called me back. I finally sent a text and he responded 2 days later. We made a new date for them to come give an estimate for later this week. I just received a text saying they could no longer come. And that I should just find someone else as they suddenly no longer have time. Personally this seems all pretty unprofessional and disappointing. I was excited to use this small business until multiple poor interactions.

HOPING FOR BETTER, EXPENSIVE PROMISES I am mixed about this…read more I had hoped to have it resolved by now, but since it isn't, posting a bad review. Lots of promises, not so much follow through for a very expensive (nearly $20K) project. 1) Ground and sealed steps (never done, promised but not written in job order for subcontractor). Nicely restored landscape (still have rocky areas, half-buried drain tube, and had to replace own brickwork pulled up by cement layers). And most importantly, warrantied/guaranteed work??!! 2) After much calling, emailing and stern letter to Mr. Piette, subcontractor came back out (no notice, suddenly people ripping up part of driveway), to add drainage that should have been installed on the front end (winter and spring were long, wet and slippery...). Drain is working great, although cement looks a little odd with all the different cuts. 3) Half of the area has excessive cracking and chunks coming out after only about 6 months. First response - cracking is normal. Second response - you have clay soil, and it must be settling (really, didn't you adjust for that?). Third response (came out and looked at driveway, took pictures, etc.) - you're right, this isn't acceptable level of breakage, must be a bad batch of cement. But yet here we are, months later, with no attempt to replace this purported bad batch of cement. 4) Discoloration and peeling of polyurethane coating added in garage. Despite contact from us and subcontractor, no action or response to complaint. 5) Most recently we sent a registered letter, since response to an earlier letter (unregistered) was only partial, late, and seemingly grudgingly given. Mr. Piette refused to claim the registered letter, and it got sent back. So now we start complaining in public, and send the letter back regular mail and via email. We still hope toget a response to our complaints? Yes, benefit of the doubt for what claims to be veteran friendly (I have 23 years of service and am still in) and has very nice salesman (perhaps beware the salesman who can talk you into spending $5K more than you wanted, and then doesn't follow through on delivery?). We're now many months down the road from first raising concerns, and have not had most of our concerns addressed. Very disturbing.
