"I highly recommend Northland Fence. They make building a fence easy! They are truly fence professionals starting from the initial meeting with the design specialist to the fence crew and the office staff plus they have a great website that includes a video of how the fence is constructed. When I first saw my finished fence I was amazed! Northland Fence exceeded my expectations! Now I have a great, high quality fence with a 10 year warranty!"
"We needed part of our fence fixed. Josh had the entire thing start to finish completed quickly, and effectively. It looks beautiful and we dont' have to worry about the safety of our dogs anymore. Thanks Josh!"
"Perfectly. Rob and his team are professional, thorough and they do great work. I would recommend them to anyone looking to add a fence to their property. I will also be hiring them if I need more fencing."
"We are very pleased with the results of the new fence! It adds so much to the look of our backyard. Brandon did an excellent job (some of the old posts were a bear to remove!) And Charles connected with us many times to check the progress of the project to ensure it was going well. Both are very personable and were a pleasure to work with. Will definitely contact them again if we have another project."
"Max and the team at Ridgeline Fence and Deck were incredibly efficient and put up a beautiful cedar fence around my home. From the customer service to the craftsmanship and attention to detail, everything turned out spectacular. Highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fence in the twin cities / greater metro area!"
"We got estimates of fencing from Rich. He brought books of samples and gave us price estimates via email. He was polite and friendly. We had to wait a few weeks before the actual work began. They had a lot of rain to deal with, and were having to finish previous jobs. I was pleased with the crew who put in the fence posts. They worked extremely hard in very hot conditions. It was another crew who did the fence, and they worked hard too, were polite, always asked questions to make sure we knew what was next in the process. The result is a very beautiful and sturdy fence. Everyone from the owner to both the crews were great people. Highly recommend this company. They are a smaller company, but they really care about their customers' satisfaction, and their product is excellent."
"The saleperson met with us quickly after we asked for an estimate. She provided a couple of different options as well as pictures of the different fencing. She was able to provide on the spot pricing. The pricing was pretty consistent with the others we had quoted and we chose artistic fence because their nicer option was 300 cheaper than the competition. After scheduling out 3 weeks we were able to make a couple of changes to our original estimate. The gentlemen that worked on the fence worked diligently and professionally. It was completed in 3 days. The only constructive comment I will make is they don't tell you that the dirt accumulated from digging the post holes is your responsibility. We didn't ask in the first place, but it would have been nice to know that we had some work ahead of us that isn't included in the job. The gentleman was very good about asking where to put the dirt/clay until I could get to it. Overall, price was good, fence looks great, and no issues. "
"321 Fence, done an excellent job. The job was completed in one day. I thought the work was professionally done that I had them return for another install. Thank you, 321 Fence."
Vinyl and chicken wire are two of the best and most affordable materials for a DIY garden fence. Vinyl is a great option because it is cost-effective, easy to work with, and effective at keeping pests out. A vinyl fence can cost as little as $15 per linear foot, especially if you install it yourself. Chicken wire is even more budget-friendly, costing as little as $2 per linear foot. While chicken wire is more affordable, vinyl is a better choice if privacy is a concern. You can also add chicken wire on top of a vinyl fence for extra security.

You shouldn’t try to touch the electric fence, as it will shock you. Typically, the shock is low enough to be uncomfortable to humans or animals that come into contact with the fence. But an electric fence with high voltage, or a faulty fence, could shock you and cause serious injuries when touched.
