Renovation and finished basement, kitchen and baths. Residential and commercial construction and repairs
"Terrible experience. Dakota was awful at responding to any emails, calls, or texts. We essentially contracted with him and the morning he was supposed to start work, he said he was COVID-positive and would get back to us about rescheduling. We never heard from him or anyone at L&D Construction again. Completely unreliable and unprofessional."

Chicago based outdoor living expert specializing in Deck, Fence, Porch, Pergola and Screen Room building
"While the deck was just finished, so far we are very happy with the new build. From start to finish Dan and Dianne Partipilo were fantastic! After meeting with several other contractors, we hired Partipilo Custom Decks because they were knowledgeable, professional, responsiveness, and focused on quality. When Dan came out initially for the estimate, he informed us about new building code requirements that a new build needed to have even though we were replacing the old deck virtually like-for-like. It was apparent to us that Dan has a good amount of experience with these projects. Several other contractors we had meet with were not as knowledgeable and did not point out some of the key issues with our build like Dan. Additionally, some of them mentioned unorthodox methods for certain parts of the build that did not make sense to do or seem up to code. After coming out for the estimate, Dan quickly followed up with a proposal (in electronic document format) for our job which was itemized to show what work would occur and what materials would be used. Several contractors only supplied a hand written proposal that was not itemized which did not make us feel comfortable with the work and materials to be provided. Both Dan and Dianne, were very quick to respond to any questions. We felt that they were definitely working hard to make sure the project was completed to meet our expectations. From the start of the project, we were provided (without any prompting) all of the information we should know; Dianne even sent us an FAQ that addressed a lot of questions which were likely to come up from start to finish. They were also tremendous during the permit and inspection process by keeping us informed at all stages. The completed deck looks great and brought back the beauty of the property which was lost for so many years. We feel that they were definitely the right choice for our project, and we would use them again."

"Skyline Metal Fabrication's attention to detail, flexibility, expert craftsmanship, excellence, and ultimate pursuit of perfection is what immediately comes to mind when I think about my experience with Ramiro, Heather, and crew. After vetting about 10 local companies for my iron fence project, Skyline was head and shoulders above the competition. For example, one of the questions I asked all companies was "How much distance would separate each post on this property?" Until Ramiro, all companies responded with a generic, canned answer. Ramiro, on the other hand, took out his tape measure and proceeded to measure each side of the property. He then sat down at my patio table, grabbed a pen and piece of paper, and calculated the exact distance. To the inch. In addition, he explained that this distance would vary based on the fence height, picket thickness overall weight of each section, and other factors (our fence is 6"). He also shared in detail the nature of designing an iron fence and discussed the endless options available, giving my wife and I great ideas for our project. I knew then and there Skyline was hired before the quote arrived. Needless to say, we will be hiring Skyline for future projects and can't recommend them enough. "

Yes, you should confirm that the fencing installer you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. In most cases they do not need a specific fencing license, but rather a general contractor’s license. Hiring a licensed contractor protects you as a homeowner from fraud, poor work, and potential legal woes.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
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
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Licensing and certification are not necessary.
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.
The overall cost of a fence project depends on numerous factors, including the size of your yard, fence material, fence height, site preparation, and additional features like gates.
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?
Do you have references?
Are all fasteners exterior (galvanized)?
How deep are you concreting the post?
What is the lowest maintenance fencing?
How will you deal with slopes?
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.
Any solid panels over 8 feet in height will require a permit, while a 2-foot lattice top on a 6-foot fence does not require a permit.
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.
