[Summit] fence reccomendations

Fri Oct 26 09:58:41 UTC 2007

Just wanted to put in a good word for Statewide.  I found them reasonable,
easy to work with and my fence was up in about 6 weeks.  I did have to tell
them to not stand on top of my hydrangeas while installing it, but is there
a contractor out there who cares about landscaping?

Also, Greenwich Fence's estimate on my recently installed fence was higher
than Statewide.  

Anyway. . .my experience with them was great, all in all.

Hi Allen-
Statewide put in my fence/gates about 5 months ago.  Their work was
beautiful, but pricey.  To fence in 3 sides of my yard, plus add one
double-door gate and a single door (with very nice hardware) cost me about
$6700, if I recall correctly.  Additionally, the double doors stick.  I
notified them twice of this over the last several months and they keep
saying we're 'on the service list', whatever that means.  They'll get to us
at some point, I suppose.  Meanwhile, I've been waiting to stain the fence
until it's repaired. I've had the blue painters tape over the hardware since
day .  I live at 58 Colonial Rd, if you want to check it out. 
Best of luck, 
Matt Welch
