Approved ProAbout us
Dan Buranen founded Top Line Fence in 1991, but his passion for fences started long before his professional career. As a child, he spent hours building with Erector Sets and Lincoln Logs. This hobby evolved into subcontracting for fence companies, dabbling with fence projects for his own clients, and ultimately launching his own company. Today, he's fiercely dedicated to his home state of Minnesota and the Twin Cities area customers who rely on him for custom, quality fence solutions. Hiring people he knows and trusts, Dan oversees every project from start to finish. The company is driven by his strong work ethic and hands-on approach, ensuring an exceptional experience and results that exceed expectations. The company can maintain its high-quality control and workmanship standards with 10 acres of property for receiving and storing fence materials.

WE WERE EXTREMELY PLEASED. WE USUALLY DO NOT CHOOSE THE LOWEST BID BUT TOP LINE FENCE CAME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED OFF THE LIST SO WE WENT WITH THEM. DAN DID EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID. HE GOT THE FENCE IN WHEN HE SAID HE WOULD AND EVERYONE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS COMMENTING HOW NICE IT LOOKS. OUR SCHNAUZER PUPPY IS ENJOYING IT TOO.

ACTUAL COST WAS $100.00 LESS THAN ESTIMATE, WHICH WAS SOMEWHAT LOWER THAN OTHERS. THE WORKERS WERE QUIET AND COURTEOUS. THEY REMOVED THE OLD FENCING AND SET THE POSTS IN ONE DAY. THEY LEFT THEM TO CURE FOR FOUR DAYS; UPON RETURNING, THEY COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION OF NEW FENCE & GATES IN ONE DAY, CHEERFULLY WORKING INTO THE EVENING TO COMPLETE THE JOB.

EXCELLENT! DAN WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH, THE FENCE IS BEAUTIFUL AND THE CREW WAS COURTEOUS AND EXTREMELY HARD WORKING. THEY CAME ON A SATURDAY TO FINISH THE JOB AND STAYED TILL 7 PM!

HE DID A GREAT JOB, MOUNTING CEMENT AROUND EACH POST SO SNOW AND WATER WILL NOT ROT THE WOOD. DAN WAS VERY PATIENT AND EXTREMELY EASY TO WORK WITH AND ATTENTIVE TO ALL OF OUR REQUESTS. ONE SECTION HAD A CROOKED BOARD ACROSS THE TOP (NOT QUITE LEVEL) AND DAN RETURNED TO FIX IT. THE FENCE IS BEAUTIFUL AND WE RECEIVE LOTS OF COMPLIMENTS ON ITS APPEARANCE AND DAN'S WORKMANSHIP. THE PRICE WAS VERY REASONABLE COMPARED TO OTHER ESTIMATE'S WE RECEIVED. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TOP LINE FENCE, NO MATTER HOW BIG OR SMALL A JOB. JERRY & SANDY EWALD.

DAN, THE OWNER, RETURNED MY CALL AFTER I DISCUSSED THE PROJECT WITH HIM AND HAD TO GO OUTSIDE TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS. WHEN I AGREED TO HIS APPROXIMATE ESTIMATE, WE AGREED THAT HE WOULD STOP BY AT HIS CONVENIENCE TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS AND HAVE A LOOK TO SEE IF MY POSTS WERE THE TYPE THAT WOULD ACCEPT THE GATE. HE CAME BY A FEW DAYS LATER AND SAID HE COULD STICK BY HIS ESTIMATE AND OFFERED ME A SLIGHTLY LOWER PRICE IF I COULD WAIT A WHILE AS IT WAS HIS BUSY SEASON. THIS I AGREED TO, SENT HIM A CHECK, AND AROUND 2 1/2 - 3 WEEKS LATER HE INSTALLED THE GATE TO MY SATISFACTION. WHAT PLEASED ME MOST, WAS THE ATTENTION HE GAVE TO SUCH A SMALL JOB.

OVERALL GOOD EXPERIENCE. DAN WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH, KEPT ME INFORMED, WAS ON TIME AND COMPLETED THE WORK PER COMMITMENT. I MADE A CHANGE FROM THE PREVIOUS PLAN ON ONE GATE AND HE RESPONDED WELL TO MY REQUEST. AM PLEASED WITH THE RESULT ON THE GATE. THE WIRE MESH, AS INSTALLED, DID NOT KEEP MY SMALL DOG FROM ESCAPING, SO I HAD TO GO BACK AND SECURE THE MESH IN A FEW SPOTS MYSELF. IN ADDITION, THERE ARE ONE OR TWO POSTS THAT WIGGLE, BUT OTHER THAN THESE TWO ITEMS, AM PLEASED WITH THE FINAL RESULT.

DAN AND HIS WORKERS ARE CRAFTSMEN AND TRUE PROFESSIONALS. I FELT INSTANTLY COMFORTABLE WITH THEM. DAN WAS FLEXIBLE WHEN OUR PLANS CHANGED A BIT AFTER THE POSTS WERE INSTALLED. HE IS POLITE, WELL-PREPARED AND WORKS QUICKLY WITHOUT BEING IN A HURRY. HIS COMPANY IS WELL-NAMED. HE GETS MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

BRAD RETURNED MY CALL AND CAME OUT FOR THE ESTIMATE ON-TIME. HE WAS VERY HELPFUL WITH MAKING MY DECISION ON TYPE AND STYLE, PLUS EXPLAINING MY OPTIONS AND COSTS. THE ACTUAL WORK WAS DELAYED BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT RAIN. ONCE THE RAINS LET UP; THE FENCE WAS INSTALLED AND I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULT.

RETURNED CALL PROMPTLY, BUT UNWILLING TO DRIVE OVER TO LOOK AT IT BEFORE GIVING ME A BID. GAVE ME A BALLPARK PER FOOT, BUT SAID GAS WAS TOO EXPENSIVE TO GO DRIVING ALL OVER TO GIVE ESTIMATES. I KNOW I AM A LITTLE FAR FROM HIM, BUT IF HE'S NOT WILLING TO WORK OUT HERE, HE SHOULD JUST SAY SO. I HAD SEEN SIMILAR COMMENTS HERE ON THE LIST, SO I WASN'T SURPRISED AT HIS RESPONSE, BUT ITS DISAPPOINTING FOR A COMPANY THAT GETS SUCH GOOD REVIEWS FROM THOSE FOR WHOM HE DOES WORK.

DAN IS THE OWNER AND HE CAME OUT TO DO THE ESTIMATE. HIS WAS THE LOWEST BID. HIS BOOK SHOWED A BREATH OF EXPERIENCE. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE RESULT. DAN CALLED ME ON THE DAYS BEFORE HE CAME OUT AND I WAS SURPRISED HOW MUCH HE WAS ABLE TO DO DESPITE ALL THAT RAINY WEATHER. ONE CAVEAT: HE DOES NOT TAKE CREDIT CARDS.

IN EARLY APRIL 2005 I CONTACTED TOP LINE BY EMAIL FROM THE ANGIE'S LIST SITE STATING I WAS INTERESTED IN AN ESTIMATE FOR A FENCE. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS WITH NO RESPONSE, I CALLED THE PHONE NUMBER AND LEFT A MESSAGE. HE CALLED AFTER A COUPLE DAYS AND SAID HE DIDN'T GET THE EMAIL BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE TIME TO CHECK IT. HE STATED ANGIE'S LIST WAS GREAT AND HE HAD MORE BUSINESS THAN HE COULD HANDLE. HE ASKED IF I HAD OTHER ESTIMATES. I HAD TWO. SO HE SAID HE DIDN'T WANT TO WASTE HIS TIME COMING OUT AND WOULD JUST SEND AN ESTIMATE AFTER THE PHONE DISCUSSION. IT HAS BEEN A WEEK AND I HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED THE ESTIMATE. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

PROVIDED ESTIMATE ON PHONE AND VISITED SITE. CREW WHO DID THE WORK WERE HARD WORKING AND ENTHUSIASTIC. WORK DONE WELL AND QUICKLY WITH A MINIMUM OF DISRUPTION TO THE GARDENS BY THE FENCE. CLEANED UP WELL.

DAN WAS ABLE TO GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF THE REQUEST. HE WAS POLITE, INFORMATIVE, AND RETURNED CALLS PROMPTLY. HIS PRICE WAS ALSO VERY REASONABLE. WHILE WE DID NOT USE TOP LINE FENCE FOR THIS PROJECT, I WOULD DEFINITELY CALL UPON HIM AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.

THE EVER-CHEERFUL DAN BURANEN CAME OUT IN THE RAIN AND WE RESEARCHED THE SCOPE OF THE PROJECT TOGETHER. HE MADE A LARGE EFFORT TO ACCOMMODATE MY NEEDS INCLUDING WORKING WITH THE CITY TO GATHER THE LATEST INFO ON CODE. HE WAS EXCITED TO WORK ON A CUSTOM DESIGN AND MADE IT EASY FOR ME TO EXPLAIN. MY LAST MINUTE DESIRE TO ADD A THIRD GATE SEEMED TO CAUSE HIM NO PROBLEM AND THE CHARGE WAS SMALL. WE NEGOTIATED THE OVERALL PRICE TO OUR MUTUAL SATISFACTION AND HE WAS FRIENDLY THROUGHOUT. EXTRA WOOD WAS LEFT WITH US. HE WAS KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT STAIN AND WHERE BEST TO SHOP FOR IT. THE FENCE IS DEAD STRAIGHT AND VERY ATTRACTIVE. AND, IF YOU ASK FIRST, I'M SURE HE WOULD LEVEL THE DIRT THAT IS LEFT BEHIND WHEN POSTS ARE DUG. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS SERVICES FOR FENCING, AND OTHER JOBS.

THE EXPERIENCE WAS WONDERFUL. DAN WAS VERY CLEAR ABOUT WHAT HE WOULD DO AND HAD PICTURES TO SHOW OF HIS PREVIOUS WORK. HIS PRICE WAS FAIR. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED QUICKLY AND OUR FENCE LOOKS GREAT.

DAN BURANEN PROVIDED EXCELLENT SERVICE, MATERIAL AND WORKMANSHIP AT THE *LOWEST* PRICE. PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL SERVICE AND COMMUNICATIONS. ON TIME. NO SURPRISES. REMARKABLE WORKMANSHIP, TEAMWORK DURING AND AFTER INSTALLATION. THE BLACK FENCE IS LIKE A BEAUTIFUL, STURDY NECKLACE AND GETTING GREAT REVIEWS FROM NEIGHBORS! HIGHLY RECOMMEND DAN AND HIS TEAM FOR ANYONE'S FENCING NEEDS.

HE GAVE US MANY SUGGESTIONS ABOUT WHAT SHOULD BE AND THEN LISTENED WHEN WE MADE OUR REQUESTS. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED ON TIME, VERY PROFESSIONALLY, AT A GREAT PRICE AND WITH GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I HAVE MORE WORK TO DO IN THE SPRING AND I WILL CERTAINLY CALL TOP LINE FENCE FOR THE WORK.

I WAS HAPPY WITH THE OVERALL JOB. DAN THE OWNER HAS NOW TAKEN ON TWO EMPLOYEES TO HELP HIM OUT. I THOUGHT THE NUMBER OF TRIPS THEY HAD TO MAKE BACK TO THE SHOP AND ALSO TO THEIR SUPPLIER FOR A FEW ADDITIONAL PARTS, INCLUDING A COLOR DIFFERENCE IN THE CHAIN LINK FABRIC, A LITTLE UNUSUAL. I HAD NOT RECEIVED AN INVOICE FOR PAYMENT AND HAD TO CALL DAN/OWNER. I THINK DAN THE OWNER IS SINCERE, POLITE AND COMPETENT. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO A FRIEND.

DAN WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH. MOST OF THE PLANNING WAS DONE OVER THE PHONE DUE TO THE DISTANCE FROM OUR HOME TO WHERE MOST OF HIS OTHER JOBS ARE. HE AND HIS HELP WERE PLEASANT, PUNCTUAL AND WORKED DILIGENTLY COMPLETING THE JOB IN ONE DAY. HIS PRICES WERE VERY REASONABLE IN COMPARISON TO OTHER BIG FENCING COMPANIES. WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THE QUALITY OF DAN'S WORK AND WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HIM FOR ANOTHER JOB!
