Several homeowners in Panorama are frustrated that they didnt check out their fencing contractor a little more closely before handing over their hard earned cash.
Planks of wood have been sitting in the backyards of Farhad Werdeg and Atif Abbasi since last September.
"I think they're useless now, sitting out there all winter, but they're still there," said Abbasi.
In both cases, Steve Nielsen, the contractor and owner of Heart of the West Construction, dropped the lumber off and promised to return the next day to build their fences.
He never did and the homeowners have tried several times to contact him.
We tried to contact him maybe 100 times, he never replied, said Werdeg.
It's the same story down at Eva Strazhevskis house.
All three neighbors thought they were safe hiring Nielsen to do their jobs.
"He was doing all the fences on our street and the street in front of us. All our neighbors were using him, neighbors on the back, the left, the right, said Werdeg.

Officials in Dumont are going out to bid for new fencing at Veterans Memorial Park.
Borough Administrator John Perkins said fences at two of the parks baseball diamonds and at its pair of tennis courts will be replaced by the fall.
He said he did not know how many feet of fencing will be required to do the job but that the project will cost roughly $100,000.
Perkins said the existing fences are old and unsafe, noting errant foul balls often are hit beyond backstops at both fields.
The Borough Council passed a resolution at a recent regular meeting authorizing the borough clerk to advertise for bids.
The borough received a matching grant worth $157,000 from the Bergen County Open Space, Recreation, Farmland and Historic Preservation Trust Fund to buy new fencing.
The funding also will go toward purchasing exercise equipment at the park; re-grading Ginas Field at Aladdin Avenue and Second Street; and replacing two scoreboards one at the park, and another at Columbia Field at Columbia and Johnson avenues.
Those three projects are exempt from competitive bidding.

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jun 13, 2013) - Elektra Records has announced its signing of the acclaimed artist Fences. The Seattle-based artist -- known to friends and family as Christopher Mansfield -- will release his much-anticipated second album, entitled "THE INTERNAL DIVING BOARD," later this year.
Produced by Jacquire King (Kings of Leon, Of Monsters and Men, Modest Mouse), "THE INTERNAL DIVING BOARD" sees Mansfield evolving his idiosyncratic and ambitious brand of folk-flavored indie rock to a fuller palette including tough basslines, synths and Mansfield's trademark vocal delivery. The new album also features accompaniment by some of Mansfield's musician-friends, including his frequent on-stage cohorts Ben Greenspan -- who also co-wrote material on the album - -and Lindsey Starr, Death Cab For Cutie drummer Jason McGerr, and rapper Macklemore, whom Fences has collaborated with in the past. In addition to co-writing "Ten Thousand Hours" on "THE HEIST," the debut full length from Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Mansfield is also the featured vocalist on duo's critically acclaimed track "Otherside (featuring Fences)" which currently boasts over 23 Million views on YouTube.
In announcing the signing, Elektra President Jeff Castelaz said: Fences make music that stops me in my tracks. They've made a record that fits the Elektra credo perfectly: deeply personal, evocative songwriting wrapped in stunning production. This record takes the listener on a long journey narrated by Chris Mansfield."
Mansfield stated, "The legacy of Elektra is stunning. Artists like Bjork and The Cure didn't just release albums, they shaped culture. The current roster is no exception. When Elektra extended their hand, I didn't think twice. It is an honor to join a label that promotes fearlessness."
"THE INTERNAL DIVING BOARD" follows Fences' extraordinary self-titled debut "FENCES," which was co-produced by Sara Quin of Tegan & Sara and greeted with unanimous critical praise for Mansfield's intimate, introspective pop writing upon its 2010 arrival. SPIN named "FENCES" as one of its "10 Best Albums You Might Have Missed This Year," applauding its "sorrowful, self-deprecating, and charming pop-folk songs" for "(flaunting) the assured hooks and astute observations of instant minor classics."
NYLON hailed the album for "(bringing) together (Elliott) Smith's delicately wistful melodies and Morrissey's beautiful melancholia." Mansfield is "a slacker songwriter of some note," declared the Dallas Observer, with the Washington Post commending his "weary voice, finger-picked guitar, and pained-love lyrics." "Mansfield drives a brutally direct heartbreak into the broken, dilapidated slats of a warm but bitter pop," raved the Austin Chronicle, while Seattle's own The Stranger praised "FENCES" for its "thoughtfully crafted pop songs and beautiful acoustic ballads," noting that "soon, with songs this strong, (Mansfield) won't just look like a rock star -- he'll actually be one."
Fences first got underway during Mansfield's stint in Boston, a time spent studying at Berklee College of Music as well as performing and perfecting his haunting songs. He soon relocated to the Pacific Northwest and in 2008, self-released his nascent Fences recordings as the now exceedingly rare "ULTIMATE PUKE EP." The collection earned copious attention from in-the-know fans, ultimately finding its way north into the hands of Sara Quin, one half of Canadian indie-folk icons, Tegan & Sara. Quin fell in thrall to Fences' intuitive, jazz-inflected pop and invited Mansfield to record his full-length debut at her Vancouver studio.
"FENCES" proved the fullest realization of Mansfield's sonic vision thus far (much of which he credits to Quin's collaborative co-production). Songs such as "Girls With Accents" and the country-fired "Sadie" reveal a lyrically gifted artist as adept at complex, creative arrangements as he is at simple, straightforward songwriting.
A charismatic and engaging performer, Fences has also earned high praise as a live act, both solo and with the crack band he gathers to give full life to his stunning songs. In addition to countless headline gigs, Fences has toured alongside such like-minded artists as Against Me! and The Head And The Heart, while also stealing stages at major American festivals including Lollapalooza and the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.

John Roberts – Fences (Dial) -
June 12, 2013 by
Mr HomeBuilder
Wenn ein Album schon on the fly entstehen muss, dann hat sich John Roberts gedacht sollten wenigstens die globalen Zwischenstopps des Nicht-Zu-Hause-Seins auch einen angemessen Rahmen bekommen. Fences ist das zweite Album des Amerikaners beim stilsicheren Hamburger Label Dial Records und verarbeitet unter anderem Recordings vom Strand in Cannes, einer Parade in Tokio, von Touristen in Versailles und dem berlaufen einer Holz-Badewanne in Kyoto. Im Gegensatz zum (nun) beinahe konzeptionellen Glass Eights ist die neue LP ein freigeistiges Stck Musik, bestehend aus zehn Inszenierungen, die sich wie eine Collage prsentieren: Aufgenommene Violinen und Celli, manipulierte Pianos, gerissene Gitarren und kaputte Drum Machines Was Roberts hier wie ein selbstverstndliches Amalgam ausbreitet, ist ein inkrementalistisch entstandener Flickenteppich seiner Reiseerinnerung. Gibt es den Dancefloor berhaupt noch? Was heit schon Ekstase, wenn man die innere Einkehr zu finden versucht? Fr den Produzenten die Dj-Vus, fr uns ein lssig autarker Brocken unbekannter Herkunft. Greifen lsst sich lediglich der konstant prsente fernstliche Duktus, der Rest muss ohne Worte auskommen. Die einen grbeln, die anderen genieen. Nur beides zusammen sollte vermieden werden. http://www.dial-rec.de Wei

ST. PETERSBURG -- Sam Fuld connected for a two-run homer in the eighth inning of Sunday's 10-7 loss to the Orioles, giving the outfielder his first home run since May 27, 2011.
When asked about his blast on Monday, Fuld teased: "It's part of my game."
Despite the power outburst, Fuld understands that aiming for the fences is something that can be detrimental to his success.
"I'm never trying to [hit home runs]," Fuld said. "I think in the past, I think I got in trouble in college. I think that's the last time [I] got into trouble trying to hit too many home runs. You hit a couple and feel really good. I think during that period I really learned that it wasn't going to be a huge part of my game, but it was never going to be something I aimed to do."
Fuld did allow that "it's fun" when he does go deep.
"Anything that's that rare, is fun, whatever those 15 seconds around the bases are, it's hard to duplicate that feeling," Fuld said. "You feel kind of like you're floating. It must get old for the Longorias."
Fuld was asked if he should have milked his journey around the bases a little bit more, because he took long enough.
"I had to slow it down a little bit. I was catching up to [Jose] Molina," Fuld said. "I didn't want to get right on his heels."
ST. PETERSBURG -- David Price threw a 45-pitch bullpen session at Tropicana Field on Monday afternoon and said his arm feels the best it's felt all year.
