Arbor Replacement

My experience with them was professional, on time, on budget and incredibly tolerant of my indecisions, especially when
it came to colour. To all who are contemplating an outdoor construction project, be it a fence, arbor, deck of "Canine Chalet",
I heartedly recommend "Your Friendly Fence Company".

Great Fence

Cole put in a fence for me in August of 2006 and after 12 years its still in perfect condition. All I have done is kept the wood stained to protect it. Cole uses good material and his craftsmanship and work ethic are 10 out of 10 ! So I thought people should know he builds for durability. Very pleased !!

Back yard fence to contain our new best friend.

The friendly fence man, Cole, did an excellent job, making my garden look contained by a beautiful landmark. Cole did what he said he would do, as he said he would do it.

Great fence and arbors

Cole did a great job despite some very unfriendly winter conditions. We are very pleased with our new fence and I can't wait to grow some greenery through our new arbors.

Dear SS
It was truly a pleasure to create that for you. We had to be careful not to block any street signs and visa versa. I look forward to the nex phase. Thank you!

Garden boxes

Cole is excellent. He built us a fence now 10 years ago and it is still in great shape. More recently he built us two garden boxes. He knows what he's doing. No hassles. On time. We can't say enough about his work! Excellent.

Friendly Fence

Cole was friendly, reliable and his workmanship was impeccable. He completed the project when the previous carpenter became ill and was unable to finish . He then took all the previous worker's tools he left behind and returned them to his home. It was an extremely kind gesture and much appreciated by the carpenter's wife and myself. Thank you Cole.

Privacy Screen

Cole from Friendly Fence was professional, prompt and provided excellent service. He gave me great design advice and took meticulous care in selecting the wood that he used for my project and in the actual construction of the privacy fence. I am very happy with the end result and will definitely use him again and refer him to my friends.

Three Custum Wooden gates

I needed three custom wooden gates, one a double gate and two single gates. Each one was unique and had to have a different design. Even though this was a small job, Cole came up with great designs and solutions for the installations. The price was very reasonable for the great work he did and the time spent on installing the gates. I would highly recommend his work, especially when compared to larger companies with less incentive to create custom solutions.

Dear Jacques Thank you for the review on Home Stars. It was a great pleasure creating those gates for you. Of course let me know if any of the gates require adjustment, or if you need anything further.
