I have to say, I am very much impressed with Midland Vinyl Products (MVP)! So, much so I decided to…read morewrite this review immediately while everything is fresh in my mind. So, approximately 4 weeks ago, I sought to have the mostly withered away wooden fence with gates on my property replaced with vinyl. I sought quotes and presentations from 4 different vendors before coming across MVP. I was fascinated by their design, color selection and pricing. Gwynn was a delight to deal with. She assisted me through the selection process (of which I was very indecisive), placed my order and kept me informed as I waited for its arrival.
Approximately, 3 weeks later, Gwynn contacted me to schedule an observation and installation of my new vinyl fence with gates. The next day, Tony came out, surveyed the areas of where the fence with gates were to be installed. He walked me through my options of gate placement, the direction in which they opened and the underground sprinkler lines to be cognizant of in areas where fence posts and gate posts were to be installed. Tony even informed me of the gap that would be visible between the retaining wall and a post that was to be installed beside it, due to the shape of the structure not lining up with the post. He offered the perfect filler solution (more on that later). I must admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. When Tony and I talked measurements, the numbers didn't add up. I contacted Gwynn about the matter. She told me not to worry and assured me that "Tony is excellent at what he does." So, I rolled with it.
The next day, Tony and his crew returned and got to work. Sure enough, he is indeed excellent at what he does. I would argue he's the best at what he does! After Tony and his crew completed the installation, he walked me through the beauty of my new vinyl fence and the operation of its gates, before handing me the keys to the gate locks. I love it! Tony was on point. Believe me, I checked his work thoroughly. I made sure no underground sprinkler lines were broken, check! I made sure the gap that Tony previously informed me would be between the retaining wall and fence post was properly filled in, check! He cut out a section of a vinyl fence slat and filled in the space between the retaining wall and fence post. How'd it look, you ask; OUTSTANDING!
There was only one flaw I could find. One of the gate posts installed was bolted to the exterior wall of my house. The bolts are located on the upper and lower interior wall of the post. There are openings on the upper and lower exterior wall of the post in which to access the inside bolts. A cover, identical in color and design to the post, was attached to each opening with a "white" in color adhesive. It stands out. If I could offer one suggestion, it would be to use an adhesive similar in color to the post, but small potatoes. Overall, I was very much impressed and would highly recommend MVP for your vinyl fencing pleasure. Thank you!
