If you have ever tried to find someone to replace a "normal" size wood fence, you have run into the problem that it is typically too small a project for the major players. But one of the big companies put us in touch with First Choice Fence, one of their subcontractors. Pratema, co-owner with her husband, came to our home within 24 hours and gave us a full estimate on a replacement cedar fence 27 ft in length. We were given the option of having them remove the old cement-based posts or for them to leave these and create new post holes slightly offset. My neighbour and I however decided to remove the old cement ourselves (using a car jack) but couldn't get one of the 4 out of the ground. Although not called for in the agreement, First Choice workers did in fact remove the last piece at no additional cost to us, removed all the old wood and cement from the property, and had a new beautiful cedar fence up in a matter of hours. Our south fence is still standing but I expect it too will soon fall. However, if and when my south-side neighbour and I can agree that the replacement must be done, I will be strongly recommending we use First Choice for the major work.

Thank you and enjoy your new fence.
