"Such a great company who works with compassion and cared for our 6 month old Lacey. A mini Aussie. Every family in need of this service needs to look no further then right here. Great service and awesome pricing. Today Lacey is free to roam our property at her will and not ours. No more tethering or leashing. I can't say enough about Corey. His work is just amazing as he trained our Lacey Girl by showing her the flags and how far she could go before the beeps would go off. She's got this down to a science. We can't thank you enough and we will be passing the word of your wonderful company and service to everyone we know who loves and cares for their dogs as much as we do. Thank you for the many smiles we are all wearing today. Blessings and Peace. Lucinda and Mickey. And Lacey too."

Gold Star Fence Co. Is a small but growing fence installation company out of Quincy Ma. We are skilled professionals that offer many variations of fence, from all aspects of wood, vinyl, chainlink, ornamental and much more. We offer any type of service from small repairs to large installs. We have been involved in the field for over a decade. Please feel free to reach out with any type of project you have and we will be pleased to accommodate you as soon as possible.

"The work was fantastic; I wouldn't call anyone but Gold Star. My husband and I unexpectedly took in a rescue puppy, and spent an entire day calling around and scheduling fencing estimates in order to get a fence in ASAP. We cancelled all other appointments after Frank visited our property - there really wasn't a point in meeting with anyone else. Frank's customer service was above and beyond from the jump. Our yard is hilly and has lots of trees, and my husband and I were constrained by both a limited budget and a tight timeline. Frank was the only person who offered multiple solutions for our many issues, and he came up with a creative combination of vinyl and black chain-link set up at specific points on the property so that we have privacy from the street and great curb appeal, but we didn't blow the budget. He even gave us multiple estimates so we could choose the fencing we'd be happiest with, and was really willing to negotiate pricing/design with us when the best option was out-of-budget. Our fence was completed in less than 4 weeks after the initial estimate - which is bananas-fast considering the work had to be halted multiple times due to inclement weather and was slowed due to the unexpected 3-feet of shale rock under our lawn that they had to jackhammer through and dig out before setting our posts. Brian and his team were incredibly professional; they kept my husband and I updated about project progress, explained what they were doing when they did it, and were very kind when the puppy bothered them for pets on our lunchtime walk. They always left the work site neat, and would literally work until dark - I think everyone knew how eager we were to get this thing done and let the puppy run around. We also noticed the small, thoughtful things the team did - like attach a few rebar stakes in places where our puppy could try to dig out, or place rocks that they'd excavated on the outside of the chain-link to make our yard more even more dig-proof. Brian told us at the end of the job this was the toughest yard he'd worked in 5 years - but we would never have known it. The guys worked seamlessly, and our fence looks beautiful, polished, and most importantly - secure for our puppy. Three happy customers for life here :)"

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

Determining the best type of fence to contain your pet can be tricky. Consult a pet fence installer and consider the following questions:

  • What size pet do you have? Some fence types, like chain link, are too short to contain large dogs.

  • Is digging an issue? Some fences, like brick or stone, help minimize digging at the fence line, where wood fences aren’t as adequate. 

  • Do you need to block your pet’s view of the neighbor's yard? Some fences, like metal iron fencing and chain link, don’t offer an obstructed view.

Retaining walls offer more value to a home if they also divert water, prevent erosion, or help support a foundation. The ROI of a retaining wall is between 100% and 200%.

Both fences and walls can increase your home’s value, but you’ll spend significantly more on a wall than you would on a fence. A stone wall costs approximately $5,000, a retaining wall costs $6,100, and a fence costs $3,200 on average to put prices in perspective. 

How long a wood fence lasts depends on the type of wood and its style. The design of a shadow box fence makes it more durable than other fence types because the alternating pickets disperse the weight across the rails. As a result, you won’t have to worry as much about sagging or failing pickets. However, remember that the hollow design of a shadow box fence makes it more difficult to apply the sealer, which is crucial to extending its life.

There isn't a winner when comparing expanding foam versus concrete for fence posts. Both have benefits and drawbacks, depending on your budget and priorities. Expanding foam may be a better choice if you want a more eco-friendly solution that cures faster. Concrete is more affordable and durable than expanding foam, yet it is harder to work with and takes longer to cure. 

The standard height for a split rail fence is three or four feet. This height requires two to three horizontal rails, making it ideal for homeowners wanting a budget-friendly split rail fence. If you’re hoping to contain agile livestock or animals like dogs, geese, or goats, you may prefer to install a six-foot tall fence with four or five rails or a four-foot-tall fence with three horizontal rails. This will help prevent animals from climbing, crawling, or jumping through the rails.
