Opinions about playset installation by THE GUY ON 41
I worked with Fenceworks to have a swing set installed in my backyard. Jake was professional and easy to work with. It was easy to set up the installation with his crew and they arrived right on time. They were communicative and helpful. They even cut some branches from a tree so they wouldn’t be in the way of the swings. Overall it was a positive experience and I highly recommend Fenceworks. My kids love their new swing set!

Working with Jake and the Fenceworks team has been a wonderful experience! Jake is so attentive and professional, coming multiple times to my home to ensure that our new trampoline was installed in the ideal and safest location of our yard. Our trampoline is incredible, top of the line quality and safety and I know will be enjoyed for many, many years. Our family has used Fenceworks for swingset installations as well as our experience has always been great. Their products, installation and customer service are superb and I would recommend Fenceworks to all of my family and friends!
