Report
Austex gives builders the option (cheapest) of using landscaping timbers as the support posts for the fences they build. Unfortunately, our builder chose to go this route and our posts began rotting and falling… over with 3 years of construction in 2014. Austex only offers a 1 year warranty which is sufficient for them because the timbers do not fail within the first year. I have spent over $1,000 replacing these landscaping timbers with metal posts over the years. We had a section blow over in 2017 or 2018 and many posts replaced since we bought the house. Now I have two HUGE sections of

Report
The entire experience from first contact to secure a quote to final installation was outstanding. They set up the installation in a couple of weeks as opposed to another company that I called that said it would be a couple of months before they could get to me. Austen Fence & Deck kept me informed on scheduled steps for completion and met the dates they said various work would be performed. Highly recommend them.

I was impressed with how quick they came out to give a quote vs other companies - and they utilized all the newer technology so came across more professional than others. The install of the fence and gates we asked for was good. Only down side was on the first visit they dug all the holes and filled 6 of the 8 and left the other 2 with no explanation as to why not. So left 2 large holes that really left an unsafe condition for us and our Greyhounds for 2 full days till they came back
