Joe and his team did a great job. From the first visit to completion it was a pleasure to work with A1 Fence. Joe brought up many important aspects of the project we have never considered. Very experienced. Our goal was to create a doggie play area. We wanted to be able to let our dogs out in the yard without fear of other dogs or people being able to get at them easily. Doggie pickets what's the answer and is also aesthetically pleasing.

Our yard has a slight slope to it so tearing the fence was aesthetically necessary. We had not even considered that. Joe's team was quick and efficient and always left our yard neat and clean between each phase of the project. I highly recommend A-1 Fence and would use them again if needed.

I had someone crashed into my fence about a few months ago. I looked around for a good fencing company and found A-1 fence on google. They do excellent work and you will not regret it if you go with A-1. Have a little patience with the communication part because sometimes they are very busy but will get you. And I am a customer not affiliated with this company. So they get five stars from me for an awesome job. Thank you A-1 fence. Ken

The chain link gate was difficult to open and close so I finally called to get an estimate for repair. Was able to get a next day appointment for an estimate but was pleasantly surprised that he took care of the gate within thirty minutes. Stellar service and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

These guys are awesome. I had two jobs with them. 1st job was a small $450 job for my German Shepard, Which was an expert con artist. Joe Escobar came out to write an estimate and was extremely professional. He emailed me an estimate the next day and started and completed the Job the next day.

What can I say. I've been given out 5 stars lately like candy on Halloween. Problem is, you don't get 5 stars from me unless you went above and beyond my expectations. Well you guessed it. A-1 fence earned my 5 star rating. They went way beyond my expectations in a very difficult situation. The employees as well as management are very professional and they do what they say. The work performed is fantastic, top notch work. If you need a steal fence installed don't bother looking elsewhere just call A-1 fence and sign on the dotted line. C:

I used A1 fence to install about 300 feet of black poly chain-link. It took some time to hear back from them with a quote, but once I had signed off on it and they had ordered the material they installed it very quickly. Their crew is very professional and did a great job. My fence looks great!

This review is far past due. A1 Fence put in a new gate operator for our community road in the mountains a little over two years ago. Even though the spec was well in range for the unit, it broke twice in the first year of operation. A1 is about customer service. They upgraded us to a commercial unit at no extra charge and it has been flawless for well over a year now.

Need a service call on your gate. Don't call these guys. A weld broke on my gate opener and needed to be welded. They did the original work, I called for a field repair and they quoted me $750.00 dollars. As a resolve, I called Patterson welding. Jesse, came out 2 hours later, had the gate repaired (welded) in 20 minutes. His fee including travel time was $100.00. I would not deal with A-1 Fence again

Gate was not fabricated to the agreed discussion with Joe who came to do the assessment. The person prepping the work thought a post was to be dropped in a spot close to the house (which was neither necessary or agreed) and asked me if he should "cut through the foundation" to make it work. What a joke. Total confusion and sub-par quality for the price.

Metal gate agreed to be watertight was NOT, and that was just too bad for us even though the fault was their internal failure to translate the agreed plan. If you are focused on very high quality execution their version of it will be a disappointment. Particularly given that they can't seem to show photos of prior work as examples and expect you to trust their word and their agreed commitments that end up not coming to fruition. Trust me, keep looking unless you have the most basic project in mind.

A-1 Fence did a great job on replacing a 14-foot chain link gate which required getting an encroachment permit and posting a certificate of insurance due to the location of the repair. The estimate was fair, they came out on the date they said they would, and completed the work without any problems. Vanessa in the office was on top of everything and great to work with. Thanks!

They came out to give me a price for a fence repair and add some privacy screen to our fence. After signing the proposal a month ago the work still hasn't been completed. Canceled today.

I highly recommend these guys at A1-Fence. Joe was very helpful in coming out and giving a quote and also working with me on various ideas about my gate. They did a great job on my new rolling iron gate and replacement fence which was destroyed by a drunk driver. They also helped me deal with the insurance company and all the back-and-forth there. The office workers are very responsive and helpful whenever I called to talk to them.

A 1 Fence, wow what can I say about a company that would not return my calls or emails about an estimate that they provided me. My first experience was I stayed home from work to get an estimate; they failed to show up, Very unprofessional and irresponsible. I stay home the second day and the guy was on time, nice and polite. He was in and out. The problem is no one returns your calls and emails regarding the proposed work. I guess they didn't need the work; life is good for A 1 Fence.

Joe Escobar came out to write an estimate and was extremely professional. He emailed me an estimate the next day and started and completed the Job the next day. My second job was $14,000, after comparing and trying to find the fastest, cheapest, and most importantly best quality fence out there, I decided that A-1 was best for me. They were extremely fast and their quality fence is the best. They even warranty there work. I recommend A-1 to anyone that needs a fence fast and GOOD quality.

Joe Escobar came out to my house to provide an estimate for my project. He promised to give me a written estimate in a day or two and never did. I'm guessing it was because he decided the project was too small. If so, he should have just said he wasn't interested instead of promising an estimate that he never intended to provide. Very unprofessional.
