"GD Fence did an amazing job. I needed fencing in the backyard and front yard. Both were completed in two days' time. Guillermo is very friendly and knowledgeable. He measured for my fence and gave me a great quote. The work began on time, the old fence was torn down, removed, and the new fence installed. I would definitely hire him again."
"Joseph did an outstanding job of bidding the job and working through the problems of taking down an old fence and trying to put up a new . The job was done on a timely manner and to all my specifications. We definitely hire him again."
"They have done four major projects for me over last 15 years. There is nobody out there better. They are excellent, a well run firm and I keep coming back."
"The gentleman was on time and very professional. During the quote, he stated the job would be approximately $900.00 to remove and preserve the metal fence. I believed that to be a reasonable price. However, after receiving a quote for $1800.00 which is double the price, and the cost of a new fence is approximately $1300.00 I decided to go elsewhere and replace the fence."

Yes, a well-built fence can increase your home value as it improves your property’s curb appeal and also provides enhanced security. Online studies show that fences have a 50% recovery rate, meaning investing $10,000 in a new fence can potentially increase your property value by $5,000 in the end. The number may fluctuate depending on the quality, material, and design of your fence.
Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.
Privacy fences in residential neighborhoods tend to stand between 6 and 8 feet tall, but local building code usually dictates the maximum height. Livestock fences that border large land plots range from 3 to 6 feet. Shorter, decorative fences, which are common in front yards, are around 3 feet tall, on average. Fence height also tends to vary by material, with wood fences usually sitting at 6 feet tall, and chain-link and wrought iron fences tending to sit at half that.
Yes, a double fence can keep deer out of your yard by using the deer’s limited depth perception. For example, a 6-foot tall fence with another 4-foot fence a couple feet from the outer fence makes it look more difficult and unsafe for the deer to jump and land safely. You can even mimic the look of a double fence by using wire or a clothesline.
