A & J Fencing

A & J Fencing runs out of Concord, CA as a fence contractor that also handles deck building, gazebo work, iron works, metal fabrication, railing jobs and retaining wall supply. They focus on custom redwood fences along with aluminum and ornamental options, plus gates, patio covers and deer fencing across the East Bay. The outfit lists 20 plus years of craftsmanship on their site and covers service in places like Alamo, Antioch, Benicia, Brentwood, Danville, Martinez, Pleasanton, Vacaville and Walnut Creek.

Homeowners call them for full redwood fence replacements, section repairs, board on board installs, hogwire setups with gates, deck board swaps and fence staining using Pacific Redwood tint. Crews named Carlos, Marco, Scott, Jose Garcia, Manny, Robert, Rigo, Pedro, Francisco, Micheal, Julio, Luis and others have handled these projects, leaving sites clean with strong posts, well fitted gates and preserved wood that holds up.

They send estimators out fast for quotes, often the same day, and crews arrive on time to finish in a day or two while keeping the work area spotless. Pricing comes in competitive against other bids, communication stays steady through the job via office staff like Vanessa, and they stick to their own milled redwood on many fence and deck jobs. Service reaches spots like Castro Valley, Benicia and Vacaville with no extra mess left behind.

The Google rating sits at 4.6 though listed review volume shows zero on that platform. Reviewers keep pointing to the efficient crews, solid redwood quality, quick turnaround on estimates and clean results on both fence and deck work.

“Wow, Carlos and A & J Fencing did an amazing job at our home in Castro Valley. The guys, especially Marco, did fantastic work. Everything was done with craftsmanship and the result is a beautiful new 65' fence. It makes the backyard look great and very clean. Attached are some finished pictures. Well done A & J Fencing”

“Scott Knobloch, Vanessa Castillo, and Jose Garcia did a wonderful job taking care of us through the entire process of putting in our new redwood fence. From evaluation and price quote through installation and final cleanup, the entire project was well managed…. and reasonably priced! I would be happy to recommend A&J Fencing to anyone looking for fence installation or repair.”

“Today we had Manny from A & J Fencing in Concord, CA come out and stain/paint our fence. We had this done in order to help preserve our fence. We used Pacific Redwood tint for the stain/paint. Manny did an excellent job and was very professional. We are very satisfied with the finished product.”

“A&J Fencing did an amazing job on our fence! They were easy to work with, on time, affordable, and did a great job in a good amount of time. They also left zero mess which is hugely appreciated! Robert and his team were friendly and provided great communication throughout the day as they were completing the job. Highly recommend!”

“The entire experience with A&J Fencing was exceptional from start to finish! Carlos was very knowledgeable of our fencing needs. The installation crew of Micheal, Carlos and Julio were great. They worked well as a team and installed an excellent fence. Very pleased with the finished product.”

“It’s been a wonderful experience having A and J fencing do our front and backyard fence. They did an excellent job. Robert and the crew worked hard and did a fantastic job. We will recommend them to friends and families”

“Scott and Luis added their construction and design savvy to help us realize a long-standing functional project. Luis and crew used quality project components and top-notch craftsmanship to fit the attached pergola into our existing landscape features seamlessly. Quick and efficient. We love the result Luis! Thanks for your attention to detail and for understanding and meeting our needs. See you for our next project A&J!”

“A & J Fencing installers (Rigo, Pedro, & Francisco) were outstanding, professional, and expedient. They arrived on time, briefed me on what they were going to do, and completed the job on schedule. Of the three quotes I received, A & J Fencing was hands done the best, especially when you look at the quality of their work.”

“Very professional and efficient! Our new fence looks great. Jose was very helpful and knowledgeable. The crew worked diligently and did a great job. We highly recommend A&J Fencing!”

“I actually decided to use A&J after reading a lot of posts about them on Reddit (typical millennial here! lol), and I'm so glad I did. Scott came out quickly to understand the project and our needs and provided us with a competitive quote. Our project was a hogwire fence around the parameter of our front yard, which included a gate that bridge the gap between the new fence and the side of our house. He quoted me the same day he came out, and once the quote was signed, he had his team out here within a week. The workers were prompt, professional, friendly, and worked fast. They finished in half a day and cleaned up afterwards, which was nice. The final result was fantastic, much better than I imagined, and all of our neighbors came out to compliment us on the fence. Working with A&J was fast, easy and painless (which is hard to come by with construction). Highly recommend!”

“A& J fencing came out and replaced about 100 ft of old, worn out fence. They did a great job. They showed up on time, worked quickly throughout the day, and then cleaned up the work area completely. I highly recommend this company!”

“The team at A&J Fencing were great! They replaced our entire Redwood fence surrounding our property plus installed 4 gates. The quality and workmanship is excellent! They were also the lowest price of the 3 bids we received. We are very happy with the end results. I'm very picky, and anytime I asked for something, they made it happen without making me feel like I was being a pain. I would like to give special thanks to Rigo and Jidalgo for accommodating my every request. 5 star job, 5-star team, and at a good value. I would highly recommend A&J Fencing!”

“We hired A&J Fencing to replace a portion of our backyard deck. The team was professional and prompt. The work was completed on time and efficiently. The redwood selected and milled by A&J was of excellent quality and with beautiful grain. The estimate was reasonsable and accurate. We appreciated the extra care that the team took to ensure no damage to the upper deck or any of the plants and flagstones occurred.”

“Had my fence replaced in Vacaville by A&J Fencing, and both my husband and I are more than impressed! The company has a crew of super kind and very efficient people! They were also very attentive to detail. Their lead saw that one of my neighbors had thicker posts, and wanted to keep consistency with the posts of my fence to make sure it is sturdy and lasts longer. Wonderful job by everyone! I recommend A&J Fencing to anyone needing a high-quality fence replaced in a timely manner.”

“Fantastic job! So pleased with the quality of workmanship and service. Worth every penny. Rigo, Hidalgo and Mateo were great with this project build. Not only was the finished product great but the time to completion fast and courteous. I plan on recommending A&J Fencing to everyone I know.”

“I recently had a new fence installed in my backyard in Benicia by A&J Fencing, and I couldn’t be happier. Scott, the estimator, was wonderful—always quick to return my calls and answer questions. Vanessa in the office kept me updated on the schedule, which made everything easy. The crew showed up on time, worked hard, and did beautiful, detailed work. They used their own milled redwood, which is excellent quality, and even mounded the concrete at the base of the posts to divert water—true attention to detail. The board-on-board fence is strong, gorgeous, and the site was left spotless, cleaner than before they arrived. The price was fair, the craftsmanship outstanding, and I highly recommend A&J Fencing to anyone needing a fence.”

“Have used A&J before and wanted to use them again for a backyard good neighbor fence. Neighbor wanted to use someone else, but A&J's quote was surprisingly a little lower even though their quote included 4x6 posts vs 4x4. That ended up being the selling point. 3 man crew (led by I think Rigo) showed up yesterday before 9, on literally the hottest day of the year and removed and replaced 92 feet of fence and repaired a side gate with a rotted post in one day. Incredibly professional, organized crew. It was very entertaining watching them perform. Like a well-oiled machine. Fence looks beautiful, gate better than ever. Highly impressed. Also, Manny came out today and stained the new fence. As with the initial crew Manny was professional and efficient. Fence looks even better now!”

“A&J Fencing has been our go to fencing company and they don't disappoint. Evaristo is so kind, thorough, and easy to communicate with. Our fences were powerwashed and stained. They look beautiful!”

“I appreciate working with A&J Fencing over the years. They had installed a beautiful fence around my yard about 17 years ago. Some of the posts had rotted out. The repair job was completed as promised and looks very good. They are easy to work with, have always been on time, and provide solid estimates. Shout out to Felix for his superb work.”

“10/10 recommend. Very happy with the fence they installed. The crew used quality materials, did the job in 2 days, and didn’t skip corners. The front of office staff was easy to work with especially given how we had a complex job that involved our house plus about 6-7 surrounding neighbors. We collected bids from a few other companies and found they were the most professional with a fair price!”
