Dave and crew did a great job on our new fence to keep our dog from running away.

Avoid this company. They are flakey and not reliable. I contacted them last year, on July 20th, 2020 asking for a quote for eavestrough installation. The guy showed up to have a look at the work and I received the quote two weeks later, on August 4th. I told them to go ahead and add me to the schedule. I was initially told they were booking 8 weeks out which would have put the install date around the beginning of October. October passed and I hadn't heard from them so I reached out requesting a update. I was told my job was still on their list and they would get back to me. No one got back to me so I reached out again a month later, which was now December. Again, I was told the same thing and no one ever got back to me. Its now nearly a year later and the work is still not done. Their schedule is poorly managed and they are not honest when it comes to wait times. If you're looking to get some work completed for the coming season, look elsewhere.

VERY professional attitudes, skills, and work quality. 4.5 / 5 Stars. 4.5 stars rather than 5, as we are awaiting secondary task completion, delayed due to contractor workload. BYC were chosen due to recommendation, completion date, and of course cost. Major contracted task was design, acquire all components for, and installation of a basement stairwell roof. Our basement door (5 ft below grade) would fill with snow every year, forcing us to shovel (throw) snow 9 ft overhead. 9 feet is distance from the floor up & over the stairwell safety rail/fence. As you can appreciate, the shovelling would be exhausting. BYC braced the roof with 4x4 posts down cleanly through the 6 inch safety rail to concrete footing surrounding the basement door. The finished work is GREAT, very very solid, aesthetically pleasing with all flashings, wood, and shingles blending with existing home structure. Note, there still remains ample open area in the sides (roof to rail) to permit air movement, thus negating any possibility of stale air causing mold in the basement stairwell. I would recommend this company to friends & acquaintances.

We hired Backyard Contractors to build our fence and we were very pleased with the service they provided. They were very neat when digging the holes and took all dirt and rocks in their trailer. They did not leave any mess on the grass and evenly cut the sod to fill around the post after they were set. The carpentry work was excellent as well and the fence look neat and well done. Everything was complete as discussed. We would have no issue hiring Backyard again and recommending to friends.

I contacted Backyard Contractors in June regarding an eavestrough installation. An estimator showed up rather quickly, provided a quote and gave me a time frame of roughly two weeks. I tried reaching him after a few weeks with no response. Over the next four months I had left numerous phone message and emails, requesting someone to call me back. I never received a call back first or last. I would NOT recommend this company.

These guys built a 60ft privacy fence with a gate for me last summer. We get high winds here and the build stood up to high winds and snow, excellent workmanship and courteous service. So thank you all at Backyard Contractors for your professionalism in service. All the best.

I want to say that this is pandemic time that it was hard to even find contractors also lumbar price has gone up 3 times from previous year. I hired them for fence in the backyard initially. Then we had a bird nesting in our dryer vent that we had to urgently get the outside vent fixture fixed. They were very responsive. I left panicked voice mail and they fixed it in next couple days. Also we had to do evestrough. The company I originally hired was not responsive so I asked them if they could do the work. They finished evestrough the next day. The fence boards were meticulously cut to straight line all around my backyard. Not to mention that they are very affordable. I had quote from 3 different companies and they were the most affordable. I highly recommend Backyard Contractors!!!
