I have to compliment Tina with coordinating everything. She is detail oriented that made everything go smoothly. She needs a raise. If you work with her you are lucky. She answered all calls immediately and was pleasant and extremely helpful. I also want to recognize the guys who put up the vinyl fence. I’m in my 70s and they were willing to move things that I couldn’t that was near the old fence so they could work. They also listened to me about making sure the dogs couldn’t get out underneath or out next to my neighbors fence. They cleaned up everything. Really a great group of guys. I would definitely recommend Northwest Fence. I got a vinyl fence and glad I did

I contacted Northwest Cedar Fence Company in March for an estimate. Tim came out within a week and provided a written estimate on the spot. The price was fair and we were given three options to choose from. Tina obtained the permit and scheduled the install. Both Tim and Tina were very professional and personable. The crew came out in April and did a fantastic job. I would recommend Northwest Cedar Fence Company to anyone looking to replace an existing fence or new install.

I highly recommend Northwest Cedar for your fencing needs. From start to finish William and his crew worked diligently and professionally. My fence removal was done quickly and the new fence was installed same day. My last fence was installed 21 years ago from NW also and lasted all that time. The sales professionals Tim and Tina were in contact with me and kept me updated of all dates and times. Don’t bother to call anyone else! Northwest is the only way to go!!!

Northwest Cedar Fence did a great job installing our new aluminum fence. Their estimate crew was on time and showed up as promised. The team walked me through the village permit process, and they showed up on a very wet, miserable day, and installed the fence that day, as promised. Because of our yard slope, they had to custom cut the gates, and installed those also on the date and time promised. It looks great, with very good attention to detail. Thank you!
