Just had my fence completed. It took them almost 2 months to finish when I signed the contract. The fence cost $24/linear foot for a privacy fence with 6x6 post (no scallops or lattace). I will have to go back and redo certin areas of the fence. GMG is lacking "Attention to details" such as using a proper level. I didn't find the 8" level used to be effective. You can tell that the fence is not straight just by looking at it.
Also my one side of the fence was measuered incorrectly and is not sitting on the property line. This was mentioned to GMG 2 weeks before completeion. GMG's repsponse was the post for the gate was the only one off the mark because they hit a big rock and managed to get the post beside it. This translated to a loss of 4". I wish GMG could have calld me about this before placing the post. I would have had the hole moved further down a few feet.
Finally it bothered me that a nail gun wasn't used for framing. That would have made a huge difference with keeping the framing straight and shortened the time to complete the work.
In conclusion my experience was not a good one. I would have perfered to have a Perfect Post Hole come and set the post and do the work myself. Even though GMG's pricing was good, the quaity of work and lack of "Attention to detail" get's a failing grade.
