"This company was not honest with me when they came out to do an estimate. They showed us a board that would supposedly match the ones we had damaged but we later found out that they would have been too thin. We also felt rushed in the decision making process, as the man kept insisting that we had to get it done right away. When he quoted the price, he asked us if we were claiming it on of our insurance and what deductible we had and we mistakenly told him five hundred dollars, the estimate he gave us was eleven hundred dollars, obviously the price plus the deductible. We decided these men wouldn t be the right people to do our job and we were really glad we made this decision because the people we did have complete the work only charged us six hundred and eighty five dollars total."

"I needed a privacy fence removed and a brand new one installed, as the one I had installed six months earlier was already coming down. The owners and crew of Tailored Timber were excellent, and I could not recommend them more highly. They were professional, knowledgeable, timely, and very affordable. They removed the existing fence and installed a new one with new materials in 2 1/2 days (despite temperatures being in the 90s). Their craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional!"

"Rebel Roofing and Renovations did a great job removing the old sidewalk around my house and then pour new concrete. The sidewalk was pitched away from the house to help divert water away from the base of my house and it looks great."

"Cody and Ryan did a great job, they had me walk the property upon completion to make sure I was satisfied. The job was done at the agreed upon price and everything they promised was finished. They even went above and beyond by power washing my patio while they power washed the house to prep it for paint. I would definitely hire again."

"Mike and his crew redid both of our bathrooms with heated floors and all the works. The project was a little bit challenging in that we did one wall with pebbles which was very labor intensive. Still, they did a great job. My wife now says we have a better bathroom than the spas / hotels.

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.
