Initially we were happy with the fence installed by Allied Fence but right away our gates started to hang up & bounce as we opened them. I could see that the 45° support rod was welded so close to the hinge that it caused binding. I’m ready to install automatic openers on my gates but the bouncing and lurching will cause the openers increased difficulty. I asked them repeatedly if they would come out to detach and re-weld it further away from the hinges. I’ve made 10 phone calls now and I’m done calling, my only hope is to tell others that you will get a fence built but when there’s any problems they will not stand behind it. We’re also missing a couple of post caps which allows water to get inside the post and eventually will prematurely rush the post. Both of these items would take an hour to two hours to fix but neither of them are being addressed. How sad that the company will let his repetition be tarnished by two hours worth of work.

We had Allied come out and build a pressure-treated wood and cattle panel fence around about an acre of land that we use as our back yard. Pros: they were reasonably priced, worked quickly, and their employees were relatively neat. Cons: Initially I was quite pleased with the looks of the fence but about 6 weeks after they finished boards started warping and detaching. After waiting a week for someone to it back for it to me, I was told that they would be happy to come out and repair those places but that there would be a charge. Apparently in the contract Allied the states that pressure-treated wood will warp. If this is how bad their wood warps in six weeks, I cannot wait to see it in the year! And the issue of warping was never discussed with us prior to installation. We paid extra for the pressure-treated wood to prevent such issues. Now we will have to go back and replace several pieces of fencing along with screwing screws into every post as allied only used nails. I cannot recommend this company for any type of wooden fence.

We called and emailed several fence companies to get a quote. Allied was the only one who responded promptly(some didn’t even reply) AND who came out to give a FREE accurate estimate rather than ballpark one on the phone. They worked with us on all our concerns and gave us several options. We ended up going with a horizontal cedar fence and it looks beautiful! In retrospect I wish we had asked about staining and sealing the fence as I’m sure they could do a much better and cleaner job than we will. Everything looks very solid. The gate works great. Ours dogs now have a safe secure environment to go crazy in. We’ve had a lot of work done on our house lately and had multiple horrible experiences with contractors. Allied was truly a breath of fresh air.

They built my wood fence gate as well as a mentally challenged 3rd grader could. It wouldn’t shut they day they built it. I had to call them 5 times to get them to fix it. All they did to fix it was hack away at the edge. 3 years later, it won’t close again. Luckily for them it’s past the warranty period. I spent half my Saturday fixing it again so it could close. Jerry and Tony are like 2 goof balls who don’t communicate very well with customers. They refused to fix my fence at first, because they claimed it was warped without ever bothering to see it in person. If you like spending hundreds of dollars on shotty work and wasting your weekend re-doing their job for them, please give them a call.
