This is the subject of an email that recently came through from a customer. The email gave us a little chuckle, and the pictures really took it home!

A 75 year old grandfather installs his fence single-handedly

“I found that if you read the instructions including Murphy’s Fence Laws*,  which are very clear, before beginning your fence it becomes a very  easy installation.

I read the instructions regarding how to  figure what you need to order and started out with a portion that I felt  comfortable with, about a 1/4 of the total order.  I wanted to be sure that it was as easy as they said.  When it arrived on a  Wednesday late in the day, I unpacked the boxes to check the order.

Day 1

You  must understand that I am a 75+ year old man who had a heart attack  just 7 years ago and I was in the real estate business all of my adult  life running a large firm.

On Thursday, I started installing the vinyl fence and much to my surprise I was able to install all 6 sections in 1 day.

Day 2

I then ordered the rest of my fence and when it came, I was able to finish it in 2 1/2 more days.  I must admit that my daughters were concerned about me doing this by myself, so on the last day and a half, they sent one of my grandson’s to help.

Not only was it easy, but it replaces a chain link fence that was rusting and falling apart here at the beach.  The hardest thing  I had to do was remove the old fence and posts buried in concrete.

Now I am just sitting back having a little wine and cheese and watching Duke beat Michigan in the NCAA tourney with my grandson Ben.”

Congrats to Mr. Allen, WamBam’s oldest known customer!

Here’s a big pat on the back to Mr. Allen of Salter Path, NC, for single-handedly putting up a WamBam Fence at the age of 75! You really do deserve that glass of wine.

…and as fellow state residents, we’re cheering for Duke with you.

One of our recent customers gave us a glowing review. He put together a neat picture collage that was too good not to post.

(May we boldly suggest that his neighbor with the white picket fence to the left should have also chosen a WamBam Fence?) 😉

Thanks Ryan, for choosing WamBam Fence. We’re grateful for customers such as you!
