That customer says Ray and his crew installed a new fence there, kept to the schedule set by a party at the house, and finished on time with a fence the customer calls "very well constructed." On its Houzz profile, the company says it installs residential and commercial fence of all kinds, also supplies aluminum, PVC, cedar and chain link, and has over 20 years in the industry across RI and Mass. Its BBB grade is A+, and on Google it holds 4 stars from 36 ratings. A recent customer says that when Ray and his team took down an old fence, they asked them to save a few pieces and the gate to close in a garden. That customer says Ray was responsive to texts and calls and the crew arrived on time. A 2025 customer described a new vinyl fence from Ray and his team, said they worked through 90° temps and rainy days and checked in before proceeding on certain details, and called it the most affordable quote they received. A 2025 Google reviewer said the company did not stand behind its work and that a wooden fence was installed on the wrong property. **Strengths:** - A sloped-yard fence — a recent customer says it was completed on time - Responsive to texts — a recent customer says Ray answered texts and calls - An affordable quote — a 2025 customer called it the most affordable received **Concerns:** - Wrong-property install — a 2025 customer said a wooden fence went on the wrong property ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A recent customer says a fence on a sloped portion of the yard was completed on time and is very well constructed _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2kxclltNUJXWGw2U0RjeU5IbFBYME42T1hReldIYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xc9adaf979ce07196!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOi1rYm5BWXl6SDcyNHlPX0N6OXQzWHc%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Ray and his crew installed a fence for me at my home.
