"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."

"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."

Customers say: True professional

"I hired Dan Boney for a fence job. It wasn’t without its challenges, due to terrain and existing foliage. He managed to get the job done, and without any surprise charges for XYZ. I found Dan to be very responsive, both when I initially reached out to him, and whenever a question or concern arose during the job. He was punctual, showing up on time for the initial job bid, as well as every morning until the job was completed. A quote was provided during the initial on-site assessment, as well as a full quote via email later that day. Some companies to which I reached out, never got back to me at all or took several days and more than one request by me to provide a quote. In the end, Dan was the most reactive and had very competitive pricing. During the entire interaction, I found Dan to be both personable and professional. He is a very hard worker. One thing often overlooked is cleanup. Dan did a great job there, being sure not to leave a mess for me or my neighbor. TLDR: Dan is punctual, professional, friendly, reactive to inquiries and affordable. I would recommend his services to anyone in need of a new fence."

"Jesus was an excellent worker. He was efficient, polite, and helpful, and he even salvaged a door frame and door. I am already planning to have him return for additional work. He possessed all the necessary tools for the repairs, worked quickly, and was very helpful when answering my questions regarding the best approach to the repairs."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

While most homeowners aren't required to tell their neighbors that they’re putting up a fence, it's certainly a good idea to do so. Not only is it considerate to give neighbors a heads up about construction noise, but building a fence may limit your neighbors' access to their own backyards while building is taking place. 

In addition to the fence itself, several factors can impact the overall price of putting a fence in. Consider these add-ons and necessary expenses when building your project budget. For example, additional cost factors may include:

  • Removing your existing fence

  • Land leveling and other site work

  • Tree and stump removal

  • New landscaping

  • Working around underground utilities

  • Painting and staining

In most states, it is a legal requirement to have a fence around your pool to protect both swimmers and pool owners. These laws can vary by state, city, and county, so you must research the specific regulations in your area before installation. The rules may also differ for inground versus above-ground pools, with inground pools typically requiring a full fence. Additionally, most homeowners' insurance providers will require a fence around a residential pool before providing coverage. As a general rule, it's always best to have a fence for everyone's safety.

Most people prefer to keep the fence level by “stepping” the fence when running a horizontal fence over a slope. Stepping involves raising each panel between the posts as the fence moves over changes in slope, giving the fence line the appearance of stair steps. While this may be the preferred method of running a horizontal fence up a slope, there’s nothing wrong with installing your fence so it follows the undulations in the ground instead.

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.

Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.
