"I had asked for a quote for vinyl siding. This company was a new start up. Said their license was in the mail. Found out this was a lie later on. Men were very polite and respectful and offered very competitive pricing so I decided to go with them. I had maybe 30 linear feet to be installed. It took them over a week. That was my first lightbulb going off. Then their confused faces, trying to make the pieces fit was the second lightbulb. I noticed quite a few imperfections, but what could possibly go wrong with an uncomplicated vinyl fence? Everything. The slats are too short. I can see my neighbors yard through my fence because they didn't make the slats long enough for the top rail to rest on. This was on at least three panels. One panel, the slats were so short that they all popped out. With the posts? Brackets are supposed to have 4 screws, but they only managed to put two. And this was on more than one bracket. Now the post that's attached to the house, they used a hard white plastic bracket to attach the post to the house. And what does plastic do in the AZ heat? Crack! So now, the one post has become completely detached. When I tried to contact him initially for only the one panel that the slats that popped out, he responded very quickly, which used to be the norm. He asked for a picture, I sent it to him, then radio silence. So I tried 5 more times before threatening to report him to AZ atty general, BBB, report him for having no license and leaving a review everywhere I could about how he stiffed me on my one year warranty. He had the absolute nerve to insist that my fat a** dog is the one who broke it from jumping on the fence. For one, yes, my dog is so fat, but so fat and old that it can't jump. 2, there is a bush bordering the fence that my fat dog couldn't squeeze between and jump on the fence if it wanted to, and third, the planks collapsed into the yard on to the bush. When presented with this information, I got cussed out, insulted with anything you could think of. Then he said he's not my chore boy and it my job to upkeep the fence. I have pages and pages of emails from this man berating me, making excuses, accepting no responsibility, stating it's not his fault he didn't have the proper tools (w**), that it's not his fault it had a manufacturing defect (so now I know he passed off bad material) to lastly his well dried up and he moved all the way to Maine. Emails are attached so you can't say I'm lying this time."

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.
