Services
At Lifescaping, we specialize in the design and installation of a wide variety of fence types and materials. We believe that time spent in the backyard should be for leisure and family life, not labor, so all of our fencing materials are maintenance-free, or close to it, and with our expert installation, your fence will look as good on the day your child graduates high school as it did the day he started kindergarten.
If your looking for a fence company don't look any further. I hired Lifescaping Outdoors to put in a common fence with a neighbor. My positive experience started with there sales rep Ethan Kastello. Ethan came to my house as he promised and took the time to listen to what I wanted done. He also made some suggestions on better ways of putting up the fence and explained how their steel post were manufactured by them and had a warranty.
Before choosing a gate size, make sure common items like your lawnmower and trashcan can fit through your new gate width. Con-heart redwood comes from the center of the redwood tree. Con-heart is red in color and can be more dense than con-common wood. Con-common comes from the next layer of the redwood tree and is white in color.

Our 21 year old redwood fence was in need of replacing. My neighbor used Lifescaping on her other property line fence two years ago. They did good work so we split the cost.
The sales rep Curt was punctual and informative. They let us know if they may need to change the schedule due to the rain. Luckily the weather held out and no need to change the schedule,
Two workers worked for 2 1/2 days and did an excellent job. We didn't have to pay any money until the fence was done.
Very good work at competitive pricing. We're happy customers. Good fences make good neighbors.

The quality of work was top notch, however the coordination and communication was lacking. Twice in a row no showed, when time off work was used....not cool. Once they showed up, I couldn't have been happier with the quality. Quality is hard to find these days and if you are flexible on your install date, then they are worth it.

I wish I could give these guys 0 stars.
we got a quote for a fence in June, we wanted it to match our current fences. We got a quote and it was reasonable. We kept the quote for a few weeks while we compared prices around.
When we decided to go with them they sent us a contract for us to sign. What we didn't notice is that the final contract was changed, they left some things out and we didn't catch us. Our fault for actually TRUSTING them to go by their word, but whatever. It took months before they were able to come out and install it. once they started the install we learned right

We extended our backyard and needed a new fence. We hired lifescaping and loved the work at first. Then the gate began leaning and I began reaching out for a warranty fix. Initially they agreed, but because of delays and turnover the time frame closed and they were going to charge us! After multiple phone calls they came out to resolve it; however because it was leaning SO long it ultimately caused the post to shift and now that is crooked. They won't fix this without us paying more. We were being patient and considerate; this company took advantage and is now trying to charge us for a problem

I am currently working with Lifescaping and I CANNOT get a hold of them. My project is weeks delayed, I've sent them thousands of dollars, and I have NO idea when this job will be finished. I'm sitting here with a poorly done, and half finished fence that's sitting in my frontyard as a HUGE blemish to my property.
I HOPE AN EXECUTIVE SEES THIS BECAUSE YOU HAVE A VERY ANGRY CUSTOMER RIGHT NOW.

First installation:
This was the 2nd company we called out to have our fence replaced after panels fell down after a storm. They came out, gave us a a written quote and had us scheduled for 2 months out which is understandable with the craziness everyone in town went through.
Had to follow up a couple times on emails I sent but that's the worst… I can say. Guys came out on scheduled date and knocked out the fence in one day!
UPDATE: trying to schedule a repair appointment under warranty seems IMPOSSIBLE! Nobody calls you back or emails you! It’s like you’ve been ghosted! I&rsquo

Quick with an estimate, workmanship was terrible, half xxxxx and not finished. The best part was the crew hit the 220 wire coming from the electrical sub panel on our neighbors side, when the shot nails (not screws) directly into side of the house without placing a 2" x 4" between the fence and house, which caused a power outage for three days plus days. Fried nails were pulled from the fence upon electrical repair. Neighbors were forced to find an electrician on long hot weekend. Lifescape did nothing to make any of the right, until today, they have threatened us with collection

Contacted through home depot services. Gabriel came out and things seemed to go OK. However his "I'll have you an estimate in two business days" is now 10 days. I called lifescaping 3 times asking where is the bid and I am told the same B.S., the estimator will be contacting you. After the 3rd time of getting nowhere I gave the company fair warning that I would be using social media to voice my complaints and that didn't seem to even concern them. And of course now reading all the horrific reviews I consider myself lucky. Interesting when you get the referral through home depot

I had such a great experience from the get go. Anytime I would call in, or email with concerns, they were quick in getting back to me. The crew that came out, got things done pretty quick. The entire project only took 3 days. They cleared everything and picked up after themselves. We’re very happy with how everything turned out. Can’t say thank you enough.

Overall, the experience was great! I was very impressed with the quality of work they put into our home. They were quick to come out and get us quoted. They started the project when they said they would, and tore down a previous fence that was up on the property. Turned out better than I could have hoped. I’m very satisfied with the attention to detail they put into this fence.

They did a beautiful transformation to our new home. We recently had some landscaping done, but then wanted a new fence. We did have a previously fence that was up, but it had to of been decades old. They were quick to get that removed, and got our new fence up quick. They cleaned up their entire mess, and it just made a world of a difference. Highly recommend them.

Read the 14 BBB complaints before you use this company. If your experience is like mine, they will half-finish the job, and then put the rest in as a "repair" that will take months to complete; leaving you with debris and an unfinished fence. You will wait patiently for them during their window, and they will miss it completely, waiting until you call to tell you they are running behind or need to reschedule entirely. They will tell you they will call, and then ignore your calls and texts. You may miss many days of work before your fence project is completed.

I called around to get a few quotes for a new fence we wanted installed. After calling around, we decided to go with Lifescaping. They were able to tear down our old fence, and get the new one up within two days! The fence is gorgeous! We've received a lot of compliments from a few people and it's only been a week. Great service.

I was so impressed by this company! Leigh came to my property to give me a quote and answered all of my questions. We received a call the day before our appointment letting us know when the installation would begin, and Marcos and Beto arrived right on time. They did a fantastic job installing a wrought iron fence on our property, which has a pretty steep slope. They were incredibly nice and professional, and they were very accommodating to a couple of last minute changes we wanted to make to the original plan. It turned out better than I could've hoped. Thank you!

Lifescaping installed my fence on Tuesday, August 10, 2021. My French drain is gone! There was a French drain cover and the installers must have ground it up or filled it up with dirt. I have contacted the company several times. You have to leave a message even if you press the prompt for their call center. You won't be able to speak with alive person. Cari, from Accounting, returned my call and stated that the company is not liable for any damages. I requested that someone from the company come to my house to look at where the French drain cover was located since I have a picture of it

They only did half the job!
My project was supposed to take place in August in conjunction with my back neighbors', but they called me last Tuesday at 5:05pm and left a voicemail saying their crews would show up tomorrow between 8-10am, and to call back if that was a problem. I called back at 5:10pm and they were closed, I had to leave a voicemail. At 7:15 the next morning a crew showed up, ringing the doorbell repeatedly, banging on the door, and repeatedly calling my cell phone - waking the entire house including my toddler. I told them to go ahead with it since they were already there

Don't bother, this company is a nightmare to work with! From the start, communication has been poor from the estimate to install and beyond that a year later with a poorly built fence trying to get repairs done, repeated mistakes that have been a waste a time and inconvenient. We wanted top of the line fence for the top of our property with piano key lattice, two gates and board on board but the estimator never captured the lattice we wanted to add so instead we were left with a cheap looking. poorly built fence with two gates that have both failed and aren't even framed with the same
