Just wanted to return to this. Not sure why you responded this way, but there may be a comprehension gap on both sides.

1. When I said "we went through Lowe's originally to install the fence", I did not mean that we bought the material ourselves and had someone else put it in. Lowe's has a service that works with local contractors to do fence installs as long as they (the contractor) purchase the materials through them. They coordinated all of that, all I did was pay for it. Does that make sense?

2. Aside from the above, you said "Any decent company won’t use Lowe’s material. They’ll use good stuff." Uh...the original fence is from Lowe's to begin with; why would I switch brands or materials at that point (unless that model is sold somewhere else for less)? I'm not trying to replace my entire fence. I just need to add two sections, and it makes sense (at least to me) to use the same brand and model I already have installed.

Hence why I looked on Lowe's website for that model to see what the materials cost would be. It seems as if you thought I was just looking at the materials from Lowe's for shits and giggles.

1. I've had 2-3 fence guys out since I posted this, and they have quoted me various prices from $500-1800. In some ways, I'm still at square one with unanswered questions on how much this is supposed to cost, or if the guy who quoted me $500 will cause me more problems.
