"When I first met Edwin he was very polite. He promised to follow the explicit details of the project which were to match existing fence. He said he would start in two weeks. When he finally showed up it had been a month. He stayed for a few hours and went home sick after having brought a small amount of disgraceful materials. I mistakenly agreed to pay $300 for these in advance. The wood was cracked, some posts too large and the boards the wrong species. After being instructed not to use a specific post he did so anyway. Then proceeded to make the gate a foot shorter than fence. After he left I noticed the cross bars were pine which he argued and lied over until Angi got involved. To keep job he agreed to get cedar like the original fence. By then I had had enough manipulation and childishness. He insisted on finishing job and I did not want him to. So in fear he would, I had to keep and move the materials he lazily left. If I do not get my $300 back I am glad because the gentleman working for him was very kind and I don’t want Edwin having an excuse not to pay him. Edwin is dishonest, and immature. I do not recommend him! My parents recently passed away and I wanted the project done for my Mother at least by Father’s Day. I am disabled and my puppy who is helping me to survive is not safely contained in my front yard. The Summer is wasted because I cannot empty the garage and get my home ready for a future PCA. Edwin knows not what he did and didn’t do. Do not hire this person and God Bless!"

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

Electric fences use very little energy and shouldn’t cause any surprises on your next energy bill; You may only notice an extra couple of dollars on the bill. While electric fences don’t consume much energy, they still need it. If you have a power outage after a storm, your electric fence will likely stop working.

Issues include rust, loose posts, and damaged mesh. Regular maintenance prevents significant problems.

Who pays for a fence between neighbors depends on where the fence falls in regard to the property line. If the fence is completely on your property, you’ll have to pay for its installation, maintenance, and repair—even if it’s close to your neighbor’s side. If the fence falls directly on the property line, each neighbor is responsible for its costs. It’s a good idea to know your property lines before building a fence. If you want to build a fence on the property line, you must consult with your neighbor to work out a plan on who pays and how much.

Yes, you can expect your composite fencing to fade quickly during the first six months. This happens naturally because the wood oils in the fencing material, called tannins, bleed out. Because of this, it can help to get a color chart from your fence company, which should show you the color of your fence before and after it fades.

Fences made out of redwood, cedar, or pressure-treated pine are the most durable. These materials can last anywhere between 15 to 40 years so long as they are properly maintained. Make sure to clean your fence regularly and pressure wash once a year. After pressure washing, apply a sealant and/or fresh paint to keep it looking fresh.
