Critical: Responsiveness Very slow to respond. Lack of follow-up on their end. I would like a repair done on my fence. I have had to call, email and follow back up with them multiple times to obtain the quote and see when I can get scheduled. Still waiting to hear back.

Critical: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness If I'm spending $4000 you could at least return our calls. Your salesman wrote up the wrong fence and you didn't even try to make it right. Not only that I have to clean up the mounds of dirt you left. Very much disappointed. Service: Vinyl fence

Worked for this company till one of their testy employees spit in my work area and started a fight, was then "layed off" even though I couldn't collect unemployment because of my job history in other states and led me to believe I would be brought back but then told otherwise because "I'm too unpredictable". I wouldn't do business with this company, personally. Also they're 8 months behind on their company installs. And they let crews sub that don't know what they're doing.

I highly recommend Elyria Fence. We just moved to northern Ohio and wanted a fence in our back yard. Mike came out to review the situation and gave us solid advice. Kegan and Chase installed the first poles perfectly, lined up with great precision. Then, Dan and Lance did a wonderful job installing the pieces of our Good Neighbor fence. Lastly, Heather provided excellent help on the phone, keeping me up to date on logistics. I'm very impressed with the company overall.
