"OUTSTANDING!!!!! Everyone I dealt with was friendly and professional!! The men they sent to do the actual install were clearly hard working and competent. With the exception of a brief lunch break, these guys worked non-stop........and this was a 3 day job!! There was no fooling around, talking on cell phones, etc. And the finished product was far superior to what had been installed 20 years ago by a different fence company. Highly recommend these wonderful folks if you want a well done, pro job!!"

"Very reliable, punctual, and willing to work with owner; very professional. I asked for two different types of fencing, as we were trying to figure out what would work best, Rick was very detailed in making sure I/we understood what each would entail & the cost between both. We appreciated all the time & work involved. I highly recommend this company. I'm not filling out my prices given or paid. I feel that's an invasion of my privacy."

"Victor and his team were wonderful to work with! He responded to my inquiry promptly, was communicative throughout the whole process, and was able to work with our budget to get our job done smoothly and efficiently. We had cement bollards placed in our yard for protection after a car plowed into our home, creating severe damage to its structure. The bollards, landscaped beautifully with trees, will ensure this never happens again. Looking forward to working with Victor again on more projects in the future!"

"The process was seem less. After visiting their manufacturing site, I chose the style fencing that I was interested in. Steve came out to my house and took measurements at which point we made some changes in the style. He accommodated us without any trouble. After the fence was complete, he and his crew came out to fit it before the powder coating process commenced. They installed it yesterday, 3/30/16, and it look s great !!"

"Elliot Soto was fantastic -- him and his team did a wonderful job installing our fence. He provided great insight / suggestions and we are grateful for his recommendations. Our complete fence consisted of white picket vinyl and then black aluminum for part of it. He even did some landscaping work to include a wire fence behind some trees and bushes so our dog could not escape. His team worked through brutal heat in the summer and his craftsmanship was top-notch. I highly recommend using this company to install your fence if you want top quality at a reasonable price."

Yes, most states require a fencing installer to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed fence installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

Required to have applicable state and local licenses

Fence installers typically charge by the hour when working on a project. Typically, you can expect to pay around $50 per hour for fence installation. Your project might take anywhere from 24 to 72 hours, depending on the length of your fence, overall project complexity, and fence type.
The average cost to install a fence is between $1,760 and $4,500. These costs are what an average homeowner spends, but you might spend more or less depending on several factors. For a smaller DIY project, you might get away with spending as little as $430, or for a much larger project (like fencing for a 5-acre yard), you can spend in excess of $43,000.
Besides the size of your yard, other factors like your fence material, fence height, site prep, and additional fence features like gates all impact the overall cost. Additionally, the high cost of raw materials and manufacturing can all make the overall price tag higher.
Before you hire a fence installer to build you the fence of your dreams for your yard, it’s important to set expectations up front by asking questions. Some questions to consider include:
Do you offer a warranty?
Do you offer financing or a payment plan?
Do you have references?
Do you have photos of previous work?
What type of fencing materials do you work with?
Only some fences require a permit to build. Factors like where you live, how tall your fence will be, and where in your yard you plan to build all impact the need to have a permit. Below are a few examples of when a permit is needed; it’s always best to check with your fence installer to confirm if a permit is required.
Generally, if you live somewhere rural, like on a farm, there’s a good chance you will not need a fence permit. However, you will most likely need a permit if you live in a highly-populated area. In addition, many privacy fences in your backyard won’t need a permit if it is 6 feet or shorter. However, you might need a permit for anything over 3.5 feet in your front yard.
