"Do not use this company! I wish I had done more research before I hired them to take down my fence and replace it. The original fence was old, but it was definitely better than what they have done. When I first contacted Tiger Fencing for an estimate, the lady was very friendly. They came quickly and communicated that day with an estimate. I signed the contract which stated the day that the work was supposed to begin. Once the contract was signed, all communication stopped. The day that they were supposed to begin got closer and closer, and I didn't hear anything. I tried to contact them, but there was no communication. I should have canceled the job and gotten my deposit back when they didn't start on time. Unfortunately, I was polite and understanding. I never knew when they were coming to work or who they were sending There was absolutely NO communication. People would randomly show up to work, and then no one would come again for days. It was difficult to get any idea on when the job would be completed. The day they finally came to complete the job was my son's birthday. We already had a full day planned, and I wasn't home. When they "finished", suddenly I was being bombarded with messages and calls about submitting my final payment. I stated that I would be happy to pay once I was home and saw that the job was completed to my satisfaction; however, I would not be home until much later in the evening. Apparently that was not an acceptable answer. I continue to be harassed. The owner, Taylor, who had never communicated with me before and hadn't come to oversee the work, began sending some very unkind messages about how I needed to go ahead and pay. I reiterated that I wanted to see that the work was completed to my satisfaction. When I got home it was already dark out and it was later in the evening. The first thing that I noticed was that the old fence had not been cleaned up. There was still a large mess. When I let them know that I wouldn't pay until the old fence was cleaned up (I didn't consider the job completed), they told me that they were planning on coming that evening to get it cleaned up. It was dark so it was very difficult to actually see the fence, but I immediately noticed that there were several split boards. When Taylor came, he was very rude. He told me that I had forced those men away from their families to clean up my yard. (So apparently they weren't planning on coming to clean up the fence...) He stated that he has put up tons of fences, and has never had an unhappy customer. He was so unkind that he had me in tears. He said they would replace the boards, but my expectations were too high and that we had to pay that day. In hindsight, I shouldn't have let him bully me into paying at that moment. It has been 6 months, and the fence looks horrible! I was actually contacted after the job was completed by another neighbor, who also had a very bad experience with Tiger Fencing. we have several warped and broken fence boards. I hope I can help someone else avoid this situation."

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.

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?

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.
