"K W Fencing arrived on time, gave a reasonable estimate and showed examples of prior fencing work that looked great. KW started installation of the fence a day earlier than initially planned which was great. I would definitely hire KW Fencing again."

"We met the Sterling Contractor Services team through a full house transformation project that included adding a 12 X 22 Florida Room. These guys conducted the demolition of the previous 8 X 8 and laid the new concrete foundation for this room; all successfully approved by City of Jacksonville inspectors. Our second project with Sterling Contractor Services was they laid approximately 8 - 10 inches of concrete foundation and built a well insulated trash can storage house to fit two large trash cans and one recycling bin. Unfortunately the system won't allow a video so I've attached pictures of the trash can storage house. We highly recommend Sterling Contractor Services for all concrete and fencing projects; you won't be disappointed. Kevin & Deneen Baldwin satisfied clients of Sterling Contractor Services"

"We hired them to perimeter fence our farm with no climb horse wire with wood on top. Approximately 7 acres of that type of fence. We also have a 13 acre pasture that we wanted fenced in RAMM flex fence. I specifically asked if they had experience with RAMM because it works on a tension system and needs to be installed specifically according to the manufacturer. Melanie said they did have experience with it and it would be no problem. While the crew did a good job on the perimeter fencing, they had no idea what they were doing with the RAMM fencing. They didn't brace corners/gates properly, and I had to hire another company to uninstall and reinstall what was messed up. And when I went to pay Melanie the final payment, there was an additional $4000+ added to her original quote. She said she had missed 200 feet of fencing when she did the estimate."

"They were really nice. They did a great job. He explained to me exactly what he was going to do, he showed me many options, he walked my land with me, talked about my old fence and told me some things I could do that I was having problems with there that didn't make use of any money. So he is really personable, I thought they were extremely professional and I would use them again. But when I'm looking at the back of my fence I would have rather had them put a middle section in and then went evenly on each side instead they started it at the end of the whole panel and when they got to the right they cut that panel to fit. So if you're doing tile work or anything you usually start in the middle and then they go out from the outside, so when I look at my fence once side of it there's a panel which is so short and that drives me nuts but I don't think that's anything, maybe they could do a little bit better there but I don't really complain about it just because I was very happy with their service. He kept in touch with me, he got back with me on estimates immediately, he worked around my schedule, they came just like they said they were coming and they had a great clean up. They didn't leave a mess out there or anything and I love them. I would use them again. They did a really nice black aluminum fence around the pool and he knew like what pool standards. I asked him for a lot of other options that weren't going to be as expensive and he went through all of those with me and gave me prices on all of them and talked to me about it and everything. I really like him. My mum and my step father came back and they are very elderly and they made it a point to speak to them and everything, which that's a big deal to me. They are really personable."

"They were extremely punctual and quick to respond via phone or email.
Everything went as planned.
They passed inspection the first time. The inspector only asked that I have them come back and add some additional sealant over the screws in the bottom of the windows. The inspector passed them without them doing that. He just said he suggested it to make it perfect. D&D came out the next day and did what he had asked.
I would recommend them to anyone.

"Myself and 2 neighbors all wanted fences installed. We obtained quotes from five fencing companies and asked all of them to provide pricing for each home as well as a discounted price if they were awarded all three jobs as the same time. We were impressed with the quality of the fencing and gate hardware Metro offered and they provided a very competitive pricing for all three jobs. The installation crew arrived and completed fencing for all three houses in one day. There had been a change in the gate hardware that Metro uses between the time of the first presentation and when the installation was completed but Metro made this right. I would recommend Metro Fence - excellent quality at good pricing and timely installation

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.

The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
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.
