What Customers Say
“I called on Hogue Fence Company to replace my wrought iron fence. James and Taryn were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and did the job as quickly as possible. The rate was very competitive and done with care and no trace of construction was left behind.”
“Highly recommend! Had back fence replaced on golf course. James & crew did a very professional job. Fence and gates look great at reasonable price. Very friendly and easy to work with!”
“My fence blew down during the storm on May 28. I called Hogue Fence right away and James came right over. He immediately put up a temporary fence and came back on June 2/3 to complete the new fence. It looks amazing, the crew was awesome, professional and skilled! James was the best, always prompt and eager to please. I totally recommend Hogue Fence Company as I find them to be the BEST!!”
“James and his crew are top notch. The quality and attention to detail are outstanding. The entire process was easy. Would highly recommend”
“Hogue Fence did a professional job replacing my backyard fence that I share with two other neighbors. The team arrived when promised and completed the job the same day. Afterwards, they cleaned up and picked up all left over materials. Just an overall great job by James and his team.”
“James and his crew were great. Reasonably priced and did a great job. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“DO NOT RECOMMEND - Horrible Customer Service Do not use if you need an urgent repair. Honestly, do not use period. Overpriced, unresponsive and overall rude customer service. Took 2 weeks to get a return call to set up estimate and over another week for estimate to happen. Then once invoice was shared and work was approved Hogue was unresponsive for over 3 weeks and work was never scheduled. I called and cancelled the work after an 5th email attempt to get work scheduled was ignored. Only email response I received was a rude comment back ("We won't come") acknowledging my cancellation. Which confirmed they do in fact receive emails but choose to ignore. Horrible experience. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND”
“Ok, I don’t understand the bad reviews. I dealt with James, the owner. He’s honest, far, and not a here today, gone tomorrow sub-contractor. I waited three months so I can assure you. His cedar fence is awesome! Makes my neighbor’s pine fence (six weeks old and already looking gnarly) look cheap. I paid more, sure, but I got more—looks, years, and better service. And he got the neighbors on two sides to all pay fair share without me talking to them. Professional and I will ONLY use him in the future for my last little section (saving up now, James!)! Pictures to come.”
“Such a great experience with Hogue! Excellent work and friendly and considerate team. Job finished in a couple of days. Highly recommend this company for your fence needs.”
“My fence was in terrible shape. I waited as long as I could before I truly needed to replace. I was in another neighborhood one day and I admired someone’s fence. I stopped and took a photo of the company. I called them and he gave me a great quote. I am so happy with the quality of the wood and the great work they did. So I can’t recommend enough Hogue Fence Company. Him and his crew did a great job.”
“James and Taryn were very professional and prompt from the day of my initial phone call, providing an estimate and completing the work. I would highly recommend Hogue Fence Company!”
“Hogue fencing did an excellent job! From completing the project a in a timely manner to effective communication throughout. They were even able to fix a gate that another company didn't claim was their mistake. Their workmanship is top quality and I highly recommend them.”
“Hogue Fence company was very professional and courteous. I asked for a thicker cedar fence picket and they sourced the pickets from Austin for my job. They were careful to avoid my underground gas lines to the generator and outdoor grill. They also cleaned up after themselves without being asked. James was a good communicator.”
“Shout out to The Hogue Fence Company. A portion of our fence blew down in the storm a few weeks ago and James came by same day and put some temporary fencing up, gave us a reasonable quote to replace the entire thing, and got us taken care of quickly! Jame’s and his team are masters of their craft. They did an amazing job, and I would highly recommend them. If you’re on the “fence” 🙂 about replacing your old raggedy fence, give them a call. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Based on other great reviews, I chose this company to replace a fence that was damaged by a recent storm. I’d give them 10 stars if I could. Very pleasant experience right from the initial phone call. Work was done when promised. Quality work done by a very nice group of guys. Great experience!!!!! Will definitely use them again and will gladly refer anyone needing work.”
“James with Hogue Fence Co. did an excellent job on our new fence. He was at our home within minutes after calling him on a holiday weekend, after a storm came through and knocked down a large section of our fence. He then returned the next morning to haul off the old fence. He gave us an unbeatable price and provided constant communication and updates included photos as his crew performed the repairs. We love our new fence and we even receive several complements on it from neighbors.”
“We were very pleased with the work provided by Hogue and his team. Very professional, clean work, and great workmanship. They made sure to clean the yard, removed trash and made sure to leave the place very clean. They absolutely have our referral and highly recommend the team in the future.”
“Best company to deal with. They came in and installed a temporary while the actual panels production was delayed. When they did receive the merchandise everything was swapped out without issue. Great company to deal with and the communication was fantastic. Definitely do it again.”
“James and his crew were fast and they did a great job. His communication was great, he was reliable and his pricing is competitive. I would recommend him to anyone in need of getting their fence replaced!”
“The Hogue Fence Co. provided excellent service and built a quality fence for us. I am very happy with the results and very happy with the service that all of the folks that worked at our home provided. James Hogue in particular showed attention to detail, was very friendly, professional and courteous throughout the process. The fence material used and construction of the fence exceeded my expectations and are far better than what we had originally. I look forward to years of backyard enjoyment with the new fence!”
