    Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2022/08/21) */
    Mr. ****** demanded free services that were not contracted. Bottom tension wire is not standard for residential chain link fence, yet Mr. ****** demanded it be installed. After enough harassment, I finally installed the tension wire FREE of charge. He has since proceeded to harrass me to the point of being blocked. The problem with his claim of not fulfilling the lifetime workmanship warranty is that the tension wire he is complaining about was a $2000 add-on he was given for free and is not contracted and therefore does not fall under ANY warranty. The fence was completed last March/April and was paid in full. This customer has continuously asked for more and more free work, and my wish is for Mr. ****** to cease contact before I file a police report. Furthermore, wrong company... as we are no longer a part of the "Midlands Fence" alliance, and now operate as our own separate entity.

    (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
    Retaining wire is standard for chain link fencing. Apparently it's not for his so called company. I would have requested it in the beginning had I not known. Lastly, I've left 3 voice messages and 2 text messages requesting job completion. I will seek another legitimate fence company to complete the fence in full. He does good job over all. Just be sure to complete the details of work before making payment.
