Outdoor Projects By Alex

We are so glad we hired Alex to install our vinyl fence. His pricing was fair, and he did exactly what he said he’d do. His workmanship was great, and he’s friendly too! I couldn’t have asked for more! He even went the extra mile and picked up extra material we purchased to install on a metal gate in another area. I can’t wait to use my new patio area! Thanks, Alex!

I had three companies come out to give quotes to do a fence installation in mid-​September. Manzo’s was the mid-​range price, and able to start the next week. His Unilocal reviews were positive.
He sent my contract to me through email and said I could print it out and sign it but that it would be the final contract. And it was.
He and three other men arrived around 8:30 and immediately began tear-​down. No waiting, no messing around. They just got to work. I went out to talk to him to clear up a couple questions I had, and as always he was pleasant and answered my questions clearly. Then back to work. They had a lunch break at noon and went back to it. At 4:30 the fence was done!
He had recommended a different metal pole than the one I had originally asked for and I went with that. He sunk the poles into nearly 30″ of concrete, which is deeper than necessary! He also used redwood which he said would last years, and did it in the same style as the fence I had on the other side of the yard. Here’s where it gets interesting…
My neighbour had agreed on the fence. Everything was fine when I told her what was going on. We had been discussing fences for two months. But after the fence went up, her boyfriend came over and said he didn’t like it. He didn’t like the poles, and he didn’t like the gate they put on her property. Both were fine, and both were guaranteed by Alex. But this yokel wasn’t in the negotiations on the fence because HE WASN’T PAYING. Not his house. However, he persuaded the neighbour not to pay. So I ended up paying for it all. I wasn’t going to short the contractor (Alex) because THEY were being nasty.
I called Alex later that week and talked to him about the neighbour’s concerns. He said he would come back out and talk to us and see if he could make them happy. Remember ~ they had not paid him for the gate he installed on their property! But he wanted to make them happy, and try to help me get the money they owed me. So he built them yet another gate, dropped MORE cement into the holes and put a board over the poles (???) that does absolutely NOTHING (and he knew it wouldn’t) but it seemed to make the neighbour happy, and they wrote me a check. Through it all, Alex just smiled and was pleasant, doing his best to make these incredibly difficult people happy.
He did all this alone, as his crew was at another job.
Alex will do EVERYTHING he can to make you happy with his work. He’s a top-​notch guy.
I’d use him again. If I could give six stars, I would.

Alex did a great job on our gates (2) of them. Friendly, prompt and the best of 3 different bids! Thanks Alex!
