"Ryan (the owner) initially responded to my phone call asking for an estimate. There was some confusion about the date he was going to come out. The day that he did arrive, I found him to be very nice. He seemed very knowledgeable and I like how his company assembles their fences. He measured the backyard and said he'd email me a written estimate. That was on May 17th. I waited 1 week and finally called him and left a message. Waited a few more days, called him again and he said that a family emergency had come up but assured me he'd get me an estimate. Waited another week and contacted him. He was on the road, thought he had emailed it to me (no), but would resend it that evening when he returned. I have never gotten it. I'm sorry, because he seems like a nice guy who owns a fencing business that does quality work."

Inhouse design of one of a kind custom homes. exceptional value,unique features,hands on construction by family owned business. Customer satisfaction ultimate goal.
"Jay Burke came back to a home he had built for us in 2012 and finished the basement. He does not typically work on partial jobs, but since he built our home previously, he was happy to take it on. He added a 3/4 bath, large bedroom, finished storage area, and large family area. Final product is excellent. He had the framers who originally built the house come back and do all the framing, added HVAC, sheetrock, and everything else to deliver a superb final product. Build time was a couple months and price was less than I anticipated. Trim and all finishes match everything in the rest of the house. Jay Burke was again closely involved with all sub-contractors in the house and did a lot of the work himself. He only builds high quality products and it shows. Now having 3 building experiences with Jay Burke at Heartwood Homes, I cannot imagine how someone could not be very happy to work with him. Jay truly bends over backwards to make sure that things are done to the preferences of his customers and his build quality is excellent. I cannot thank him enough for what he's given our family. Great home to raise kids. Thank again Jay."

"Horrible The experience was awful with this people. I didn't know this company at all, my insurance company send me a list of 5 general contractors to take care of my house, so I pick J Benson because they were close to my house and I want it to keep the contractor local and close. So I went with them. They send an estimator like one day after the damage of the house, I signed the paperwork and two days later they send a different person because the first guy had previews commitments, so that was the first red flag. The second estimator took a lot more pics of the house and did he's first estimate, he submitted to the adjuster and it passed just fine. But then it took them almost one whole month before any one started to work in my house, not a single nail was removed or anything. Then I found out that numerous contractors were going in and out of my house with out me knowing it. Finally the work started and the job "foreman" got involved, this guy was even worst, he only called and picked up the phone when he need it something for me other ways good luck trying to get a hold of him. This guy should be FIRED and never allowed to work on the field again. One day I called him and he's answer was "what do you need, I am kind of busy right now" Awesome. Then I asked for an estimate to build a brand new bathroom in the basement. The estimator give me he's quote and we agreed on the price, so they started the project about one month after the paperwork was signed. About 80% of the work was done when I found out that the estimator "FORGOT" to add the toilet and the tub on the estimate!!!!!! How can any one do that????? So I had to came up with that $$$ And then there was the communication with office personnel. Since day one right after I signed the paperwork I offer to give them money, the estimator said "some one from the office will contact you" NO one ever did, weeks went by with out a single person contacting me about money. Finally some one did and every time we communicated there was a mistake with the numbers, every time there was an "I am sorry I forgot" Unreal this people. A couple of weeks before the project was done and I was super upset with every one involved at this point I requested a supervisor. He reached out to me and we meet at my house. He right away start asking me for money, I pretty much lost my cool there and I went off about all of the issues I was having with he's people. He's answer " I am sorry I wasn't aware of the issues" This shows how unprofessional this company is I can't believe how this people are in business not only in the twin cities but in southern Minnesota."

Most property owners can expect a well-maintained electric fence to have a life expectancy of at least 20 years. Livestock typically learns quickly to avoid contact with an electric fence but encounters with nearby predators and wildlife can vary. Harsh weather can add to wear and tear, reducing the lifespan of an electric fence.
For many property owners, an electric fence is worth it because it requires fewer materials and is comparatively easier to install than other types of fencing. Solid wood or chain link fences cost more and often require more upkeep. For property owners eager for a quick, budget-friendly solution, an electric fence may be a viable option.
Like all other types of infrastructure, electric fences have weaknesses. They are hazardous to people and animals if not installed and maintained properly, possibly causing injury or even death in some cases. Electric fences require constant power, so power outages or interruptions can effectively disable them. Lightning strikes and electromagnetic interference can also be causes of concern.
