Pedro and John were fantastic. Professional from start to finish with a clean job site, clear communication, and finished in a timely manner once they started the job. Fence looks great and we are very happy with the work, neighbors have been complementing us daily about how good it looks.

Everybody I interacted with at this company is a professional. During the installation, Pedro explained different options on details to find out what I wanted. He was patient in answering all my questions. Both Pedro and John showed a high degree of pride in their workmanship. My fence looks great!

Couldn't be happier with the final result. The professionalism and attention to detail by Pedro and Johnny and later by Zeke and Elija was beyond reproach. Pedro explained the process each step of the way and didn't even flinch when we asked for a change in design. Highly recommended!

I needed a new fence installed on my property and wanted something a little different than standard. I also have a hilly lot that needed some thought for how to make the change in slope look good.

I would highly recommend Rick’s Custom Fencing and Decking. I got a reasonable quote and a reasonable time frame for installation of an important product for our home.
