We are a deck company in Cincinnati, and we order quite a bit of aluminum railing from Hoover. Their products and prices are beyond competitive. We always receive a great looking product.....very well cared for, no scratches or marring. Delivered in a timely manner, and great customer service. We recommend Hoover to anyone needing fencing or railing systems.
Kim really went to bat for us on our Key Link railings. Excellent service and we saved a lot of $$$. You have a customer for life.
This company had prices that were far better than my local dealer for the exact same aluminum railing products, even after shipping was included. Their website made it very easy to place an initial order online, then the sales department followed up with a phone call before the order was finalized to be sure everything was OK. Their sales department was able to find a few unusual items for me. The customer service reps answered my questions completely and accurately. I could call them and they would respond by email if they needed to research something. The product was delivered as promised and the quality was very good. I would definitely use this company again. They have a great balance between online and phone communication. I am not a contractor, I was working on a small personal deck project, but they still treated me with respect.
