When I bought my house 4 years ago the right side fence was falling down. I got 2 estimates 1 from Durango and 1 from SPENCE FENCE. Rebel was a little cheaper I am so glad I went with SPENCE FENCE because I got the rest of my yard done by SPENCE FENCE. I called them about a week ago had some boards replaced they said next time in my area. The guy came out today so nice replace 5 boards when all done he said just sign. Of course I gave him a tip and soon need about a 4 foot drop down fence by the neighbors. I know who I am calling when I'm ready. Fred Crumrine read more

I shared a fence project with my neighbor. Sam was very disorganized and not clear on what was needed to do the job. Then the fence frame was crooked and the board cuts were messy and ragged. It looked awful. I would never recommend this company to anyone. Very disappointed. read more

We contracted Spence fence company enterprises to install a new wrought iron 4 ft fence around the front of our home. They did a fantastic job within the contracted amount and in a very timely manner. The owner and crew of Spence fence were very professional and very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend this company read more

This is the 2nd time that I used Spence Fence for my fencing needs. Both times, I have been very happy with the end product. The workers are very professional. They showed up at the time they said. After asking some clarifying questions about the fencing job, they began work with no delay. The work site was cleaned up upon completion of the job. The only issue I ran into was trying to get ahold of their person that does the quotes for the jobs. I called the office and they connected me to him. I left him several messages and no call back. So, I finally just call the office and measured the fence myself and got a quote. read more

Our fence project was a mess. The speed in which they completed the project was fast but the work showed. They ruined 40 years of concrete curbing, fence was crooked and overall looks awful. They came back to fix it... the concrete still horrible and the fence is sub par. I recently called, sent pics and nobody called me back. I am going to pay another fence company to make it right. read more

Spence Fence never followed through on a quote request. Seems to be a pattern with this company when it comes to getting a quote according to other reviews. read more

Issac and the rest of the crew was awesome! The fence and gate look amazing! They Took their time to explain everything and work with us! So glad our neighbors found this company! Very happy with the work done! Thank you guys!!! read more

Great Fence for a Reasonable Price. We watched them build it, and are very happy with the result! They strung a line, set steel posts in concrete every 8 ft., cut out a huge tree root that was in the way with a chain saw, and attached the cedar pickets with collared nails that will not pull out. They charged significantly less than all the others (I got several quotes), let us split the cost with the neighbor and pay separately, and accepted credit card payment without extra fees. I was nervous after reading some of these reviews, but our experience with them was excellent! read more

Requested a shared fence, received a quote and was booked within 2 weeks. Carlos and his crew were in and out within 4 hours. They arrived, introduced themselves and once they were done they walked me through a short inspection. Very professional and the fence looks great! read more

Had a great experience from beginning to end. If you are in the market for a new fence I highly recommend them! read more

This is the second time we have used Spence Fence. They listened to what we needed. It was great. Then they delivered and the bill was exact to the quote amount. Highly recommend this business. It takes a little while to respond due to shortage of people willing to work during the pandemic. They are worth the wait. Efrain gave us the reasonable quote the team of three delivered. We were not paid for this endorsement or requested to leave any feedback. read more

First fence fixed by Spence Fence in 2017 and it turned out great. Hired them again in April, 2019 to fix the other sections of fence. They broke six sprinklers, left trash in my yard and left behind two rechargable batteries (plus charging stations). For a week, I have received the run-around of when they're going to fix my sprinklers. My patience is officially expired. Anyone need two Dewalt batteries and chargers? read more

Live in a small beach community,with very low COVID #s. The noise started with my conjoined fence being knocked down at 8:00 am,without ANY notification. I am recovering from full knee replacement surgery. My walkway is 3' wide. No exit access to street,without crawling over debris,all day. Pleasant workers,but no communication from Valley homeowner,nor the fencing business. 1 got his mask when I wore mine,indicating very close proximity.The other didn't.No clean up whatsoever! Had to sweep up debris including nails, sawdust,rocks,dirt,etc.and replace my items that were taken off the fence with one good leg.California law dictates a 30 day notice to those affected by the removal of a fence.Called and wrote an email. Got an automated thanks for contacting us response. If you come to Cayucos, rule # 1. Respect being a guest in our community and Don't piss off the locals! read more

Re my July review, it was supposed to read "cue" crickets to emphasize the quietness of my phone while awaiting a response from Spence. So nine months later I need a fence. Yes, I tried Spence again. Called on Tuesday and was told someone would call me back in 2 days. Nada. Now 4 days later I called another company who will be out here on Tuesday for an estimate. read more

Had new wood fence put in on my property on may 9 2017. Already has 47 boards with noticeable cracks and chips on them. Fence is 67x81. Spence fence refuses to replace these boards or refund me. So basically the one year warranty will not cover this even though the warranty says it does. And according to the contract I am to receive extra boards which I did not receive! Already reported to Better Business Bureau. Is that the way you treat all Military Veterans?! Guess I was lucky to get a discount! Do not hire these people, they will rip you off. read more

Rick came out and gave me a quote , a few days later after all the utilities came out and ok'ed the placement of fence , I had a beautiful fence. I give kudos to the two man crew that came out.. Fence is rock solid .. read more

What ever happened to old fashioned customer service? The boards in the pics are only a piece of the story. Be informed. Take advantage of the state contractors licensing board website, Easy and informative. My mess happened becuz I believed the quote and verbal conversations and a great low price were all we needed. read more

In 2015, Spence Fence insalled my beautiful 7 foot fence, it has a finished look at the top of the fence, and i love it! I also asked if they could build a small fence around my not so cute pool pump, it now looks great!!!! it was a very reasonable add-on btw, glad i asked. The office staff was very helpful and patient, when I had questions about what would look nice. The employees that came out that day, were hardworking, polite, proffessional and fast! I have spoken to Wendy in the office several times, she has always been helpful and kind to me. I would recommend Spence Fence out of Visalia to anyone looking to beautify there home with an awesome fence. Two thumbs up KimB, Happy in Clovis California ! read more

I called Spence fence and 2 days later Sam came out and gave me an estimate. Company seemed reputable. But I had questions on estimate so I called Sam. He answered right away but said he had to call me back. Okay I'm waiting and waiting. So 4 additional calls to Sam, same response "I'll call u right back 5 minutes." 5 minutes never came. I moved on. If you are looking for fence work don't call Spence Fence. I don't know how this company stays in business. read more

Worst company ever!!! They come out and measure. Tell them what you want, etc. NEVER call you back. I guess you have to do your ENTIRE YARD or something for them to care about you! Never gave me a quote. Called and got the "we are busy" answer. Said he would email me. Again NEVER!! Called the person on the phone. Got the run around. Told them they suck and I got a real fence company to do the work. Told her I was throwing their card in the trash. She said she didn't care. And their service (lack of) shows!! Don't trust them. read more

Super impressed with the work they did. The crew was super fast with installation of fence I couldn't believe how fast they completed the job. They left our yard super clean. It's no wonder they have been in business for 43 years . Highly recommend. read more

Very impressed they did I quickly cleaned every time they walk by. Even the crew that takes the old wood are vary polite and cleaned the front yard where the old wood was at. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! read more

I wouldn't even give them one star if I could. The head guy in the crew that did my fence he cursed at my husband and I and called my husband a "f***ing idiot" because the fence wasnt all the way to the ground like we asked, and they digged a hole in our yard to use the dirt to try and hide the big gap under the fence so they thought we wouldn't notice when we had grass before right against the old fence.  The head guy of the crew also said we don't like the fence only because it's that we are white and they are mexican. For his information this was the third time we have dealt with this company, their race doesn't bother us one bit. I felt threatened and harrassed. I had over 10 companies give us an estimates for this fence, we went with Spence fence because we liked how they did our other two fences. I was very close to calling the cops on him because once he started cursing at us we asked him to get off our property and he wouldn't, he would start walking to me and cursing me out because I asked him to get off my property. I even threatened to call the cops and he said he didn't care. DO NOT ever hire this company. They can not be trusted at all and they don't know a thing about customer service or how to do their job properly! Don't make the same mistake we did. Pay more for less of a headache and to get the job done properly the first time! read more

Their follow up and quality control are not good. They did several projects for my house 7ft fence and custom gates but it took weeks to get it done, several repeat calls for corrections to errors made, not a lot of pride in their workmanship. Expensive too. read more

Terrible service, took weeks to get a quote, we finally get it and go ahead with our service they put posts in the ground and then text me to confirm the gate we wanted {which is not the gate at all} then when I tell them this they say they never gave me a quote on that. Not sure why they would give me a quote on something I never wanted but I ask what the price would be.. It takes almost a month and several phone calls on my part to find out it would be 1200$ more then what they quoted me before. I had to find a new person to him out gates who informed me they didn't even powder coat our posts they cemented in and they couldn't powder coat they after so he didn't know why that was!! Terrible never use them!! read more

Terrible service. We paid OVER $1000.00 for a side fence. The wood they used was badly warped and just on our 1 side need 19 slates replaced. After a month of run around, they sent a guy out to replace 7 boards in which he indicated that is what the female office manager instructed him to do. He had a very aggressive attitude and displayed is anger for even having to come out. After agreeing with me the wood planks were bad and warped he began bad mouthing the office manager and my female neighbor who wanted all the warped boards replaced and said he would come back and replace the rest himself. He showed up a couple hours later, replaced 3 boards and then left leaving 8 boards leaned up against my fence. I took it as an attitude if you want the rest done do it yourself. Then my neighbor called me over to her side of the fence to see what he did. All the boards he replaced that day were replaced using the incorrect size of nails. They were too long and went completely through the fence sticking out on her side. It was sloppy and dangerous and someone could get hurt should they rub against it. When we called again to report this, her response was can't you just hammer them down yourself? Unacceptable! What is happening to doing the job right in the first place and we paid to have YOUR company do the work not two female homeowners. I DO NOT recommend this company. If I could rate them a minus 5 I would. Businesses need to understand you can't do sloppy work and get referrals. We have pictures if anyone needs validation. read more

Terrible communication. They installed a fence for me, and one of the cross boards shrunk so much that it pulled away from the metal post. I have called them 3 times. Every time they say that the estimater will return my call. Been waiting for 3 months for a response. Still haven't received one yet!!!!!! read more

I requested bids from 3 fence contractors. I was very happy when Spence Fence came in with the lowest price and most importantly, the best quality materials, which included "invisible" metal posts. The start date was scheduled. They showed up on time and the work was done perfectly. I highly recommend them. D. Bradford Clovis CA read more

Well, I called Spence Fence over a week ago as recommended by my neighbors daughter. They said they had used them and they did good work. I have made two calls and emailed and have yet to receive a call to schedule an estimate. I was told it would be 2-3 days to get a response. I thought it would just be easier to use them instead of getting a bunch of other estimates. I guess I am wrong. I called a couple of other companies to get estimates. I understand companies get busy, however, can't the gal in the office schedule estimates? She seemed friendly, but she can't make someone call back I guess. Also concerned about other reviews. Moving on... read more

Couldn't be happier! Estimate was fair, timing was quick and workmanship was great. I highly recommend this company for all of your fencing needs. read more

They built a really beautiful fence, though the gate was choppy at the bottom, and a little ill fitting. I suggest that you and several members of the family watch the actual construction closely, so you can report problems on the day of the installation (and I'd report them to "Sam" AND the home office.) Why? Because the 'owner' with whom I spoke indicated that they send someone out on the day of the installation, but other than that, you signed the contract that says nothing broken under ground is their fault.) If you do have a problem, don't count on them to answer the phone, call back or otherwise address the issue. In my case, they drilled a hole in my drain that carried water from the back yard to the front street, filled it with concrete, and said nothing about it. When the rains finally came months later, I had a flood in my back yard, and worked with a couple landscaping companies to came to come out and address the problem. Spense Fence response: (a) I waited too long to report the problem, (b) paid too much for the repairs, (c) couldn't prove that they even noticed the problem while they were digging, (d) they don't have any liability because I signed the contract saying anything underground was my problem. I think their orientation to business is a problem, as they push responsibility down to "Sam", the installer, (from whom it takes months to get a response, i.e, the 'owner is out of town'), and then argue that you took too long to report the problem. My advice? Watch the installation; report the problem; and stay on the phone. Or, get someone that has a better reputation with regard to their responsiveness to clients. read more

We had a fence repaired on a rental property for the total cost of $1,300. The accounting department of this company emailed the invoice to my husband and as he receives many emails, he didn't recognize it and never opened the email. 7 months later he receives a call from the owner that was angry that payment hadn't been made yet and threatened to take legal action. Mind you NO ONE ever called prior to this phone call NOR did ANYONE mail an invoice to us. A very unprofessional woman in the accounting department lied and said that she emailed it again several times. We did a search and only found the original email from August, so not only is she very rude and unprofessional but also a liar. Why would 1 email be there and not the several other emails she claims to have sent. We are not losers and pay our bills, all it would have taken is 1 phone call 30 days after payment had been requested and not yet paid and we would have had a check to them immediately! We have used this company prior to this job with good results but the attitude, threats and downright lying with this job and the accounting department (probably just trying to cover themselves) has left such a bad feeling that we will NEVER use them again. Sometimes you get what you pay for and maybe had we used someone else for a little more money it would have saved us from this hassle. I do have to admit that the owner did apologize to my husband but the bad attitude, unprofessionalism and lying by the woman in the accounting department ensured that we won't be using them again. read more
