I had a great experience with G & G Deck & Fence. The consultation went well, and although there…read morewas a small mix-up at first, Ben quickly cleared things up and made sure everything was on track. Scheduling was easy, and they arrived right on time. Ben came with his crew, introduced everyone, and they got straight to work. They removed the old fence and installed the new one efficiently. The entire 24-foot fence project took just over four hours. We had received another quote from a handyman that was significantly higher and did not include a warranty. G & G Deck & Fence's pricing was very reasonable, and the fact that their work is backed by a warranty gave us added confidence. The quality of the work is excellent--the fence looks clean, sturdy, and very well built. Overall, I'm very happy with the results and would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

Agree with Anna B. on the poor communication. I think you can do better than Jim Folan. Based on my…read morepersonal experience and perspective, Jim didn't get back to me on promised paperwork or call me back when he said he would. He strung me along for many days. He originally came and talked through his opinion with me regarding our rental condo's deck for potential water intrusion into our living room and potential fixes and then never handed over a copy of his estimate when I asked. I tried to figure out fix and prevention options with him to get to the bottom of what I suspected to be potential water intrusion from the deck. Instead, he insulted me over my efforts as a landlord and never handed over his estimate. He was unprofessional and disrespectful, in my opinion. I felt mistreated, and it's my guess that he did this because he was afraid he might lose business with the HOA. I felt demeaned when addressed by him and his arrogant tone. I was shocked at his unprofessional character assassinations of me. I felt targeted and belittled. I know contractors are hard to find, but if you can, save yourself time and avoid this one, especially if your job isn't massive, I guess, like the other poster said.

Tom, the business owner, offered me $5600 to complete a 100 linear foot fence with a cheaper design…read morethan I had requested at the first site inspection for a quote. When I requested that instead of 4"x4" posts we use 4"x6" posts, he told me that since the size difference was so "out of the ordinary" it would cost an extra 50-70% on the whole job, making it a minimum of $8400 just for that small change to a more sturdy post. He also said that he would be "happy to do the job" the way I wanted the fence, and not the cheap way that he wanted to for $5600, for $10,000. Of course you will be happy to do a job that gives you 3 times the market value for the work, Tom. That didn't happen this time, and don't let him swindle you either. Tom will take you for a fool if he can. The price of the materials was around $2000, including brand new tools. Do your own cost itemization because shady business owners like Tom will do it for you and wildly inflate the numbers if he even bothers to itemize the cost of materials and labor at all. Most contractors choose not to because then they can't justify the insane markups they like to tack on to the price of the job. UPDATE: Tom responded, and so I will respond to his nonsense. I never said that Tom included the price of brand new tools in his quote. I said that I did the market research myself (pretty easy, just walk into Home Depot and tally the costs), and found that all of the materials including brand new tools amounted to around $2,000. Tom does not itemize his quotes and when I asked him about the inflated prices for the 4"x6" Pressure Treated Posts via email he basically shrugged it off and said "if you think my prices are too high, then go with a competitor". I did just that and sent him a scan of the written quote from his competitor Reuben Borg Fences that quoted me around $4500 and built the fence mostly as I asked them to. Tom responded with a snarky "thank you for enlightening me." NOTICE how nothing in Tom's response dealt with the issue of him artificially inflating his price up to $8400 from $5600 just for a change in the size of fence posts from 4"x4" to 4"x6". Don't do business with Tom.
