Do NOT use Lowe’s fence install services. We signed a contract and FULLY paid in May. Install time for the fence was July. We know some delays are inevitable, but what we didn’t except was it to be pushed back repeatedly until NOVEMBER. This is for just a chain link fence. Delays were for multiple reasons but had nothing to due with the company that was subcontracted to install, they were great. All delays were on Lowe’s. First was a delay was because the sales guy (Kevin) forgot to order anything. Then some parts came in, which were of course delayed and then while we were waiting for the rest of the parts, they gave the parts that had come in away to a different project so then we were back to waiting for more parts… they finally say they have all the parts and they deliver them to the house, Kimball and Sons did the actual install, and they were there the day after delivery again they were great. I cannot speak highly enough about them, but they get to the house and look at the material Lowe’s ordered and it’s not correct. It’s for the wrong size fence. We need a 6 foot fence and they delivered pieces for a four or 5 foot fence so then we were again back to waiting. But instead of just waiting, we had to wait a week for the install services of Lowe’s to be able to contact the sales guy Kevin to have him even correctly order the correct parts. Eventually, it finally got installed early November, 4 months AFTER the original agreed install date.
Save your money and your sanity and go with a local fencing company. Lowe’s may say that they have an earlier install date, but it’ll be way later and you’ll have to play project manager because once Lowe’s gets your money they don’t care when or if you get a fence.

Never fails to deliver on poor customer service. Shelves with no pricing. Shelves and aisles blocked by merchandise not stocked. Cashiers who do not know how to use please, thanks, or sorry. Cashiers who act like they are doing you a favor and that you work there. Cashiers who do not know how to ask for help and managers who do not help.

It appears that I’ve been charged multiple times for an order. How can I resolve this?
These charges are likely authorization holds that are placed throughout the life cycle of your order to ensure the funds are reserved for your purchase. When you place an order, your payment method is authorized for the full amount of the purchase. As items from your order ship, your payment is charged and the authorization is no longer held by Lowe’s. Orders shipped in multiple shipments will be charged separately at time of shipment; therefore, you may see multiple charges, but they'll never exceed the full amount of your order. For orders with longer lead times, your method of payment will be reauthorized to ensure funds remain available until your item is shipped. If you observe multiple pending authorizations, please contact your financial institution as each bank’s policies differ on how long authorizations are held.
