"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!"
"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."
"From start to finish, the experience was exceptional!!!! I will recommend Top Rail to everyone looking for a fencing company!! Charles was awesome & amazing!!!!

"In June Superior Fence and Rail replaced our 30 year privacy fence with privacy vinyl fencing. We had excellent experience with this company from Trisha the Sales Representative, Cassie the Office Manager to the installation team. They were all very professional and knowledgeable. The tear down and install took one day. It looks beautiful and I’ve gotten compliments. I have chain link fencing that needs replacing soon and I will hire them again. I would definitely recommend Superior Fence and Rail."

"As many of you know--finding a reputable home improvement company can be quite a challenge. We had some major projects to do in our yard and initially reached out to multiple companies requesting bids on building a 40 x 10 foot pergola, repairing a cedar fence and staining another major structure in our yard. Our experience in contacting home improvement companies was so disappointing. Inaccurate bids, no shows, and people showing up that presented themselves as home improvement companies but didn’t know what the heck they were doing. The only company that took the time to provide frequent consultation, accurate estimates, multiple visits to our property and consistent follow-up was Twin City Handyman! The entire staff was attentive to our needs and the projects were well done and completed on time. A big shout out to Darren, Kathy, Cory and Johnny and other staff members who assisted in completing our projects for their expertise and attention to detail. We highly recommend this company for all of your home improvement needs. Now, other members of our family are using TCH for their projects as well! Thanks TCH for a job well done. It was a pleasure working with you."
"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!"
"they agreed to put in our fence as early in the spring as possible to avoid injuring our extensive plantings. The istallation crew used miter cuts to fit all of the pieces together perfectly. They acomodated our neighbor so that there would not be a problem with their dog escaping."
"Working with Artistic Fence was a great experience. We needed a fence that could contain a dog that can climb chain link, but didn't want a privacy fence to cut us off from our neighbors. Amy from Artistic Fence came and looked over our property, talked about our options for our fence, and wrote out a bid right there. She answered all my questions, and was very helpful and professional. Their bid came in on the low end of the quotes we got. Their building timeline was reasonable, even though it was the busy season for new fences, and the folks that came to build the fence where prompt, and impressively efficient. The fence is exactly what we hoped for, and is beautifully done. We couldn't be happier with it. I really recommend Artistic Fence.
Update: A few months after the fence was installed, a few of the wooden caps that cover the fence posts began to split, assumedly because of water. I called them, they sent someone out, and replaced the broken parts free of charge under the warranty."
There are different types of pet fencing available to keep your furry family member safe:
Chain linkfencing is an affordable but not visually appealing option.
Vinyl panel fencing is less easily damaged than wood.
Wood fencing is customizable but requires regular maintenance.
Metal iron fencing provides a sleek look but doesn’t block your pet’s view.
Electric fencing eliminates the need for a traditional fence, but it could be painful to your pet.
Picket fencing adds to your curb appeal but won’t contain most pets.
Brick or stone fencing stops pets from digging out of the yard but costs more.
You'll notice that many projects that add value to your home involve increasing curb appeal. Adding an aluminum fence improves the style of your yard and the safety levels for pools, pets, and backyard playtime. You can also choose aluminum fence designs with unique ornamental features or paint the fence to match your home's style.
It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.
Fabricating an aluminum fence costs about $4,350 on average, ranging from about $2,450 to $6,500. Your fencing costs can run as low as $750 or as high as $11,000 or more, depending on the fence's size, complexity, and geographic location. You should consider additional cost factors including the thickness of the aluminum, height of the fence, necessary permits, and custom colors.
Corrugated metal is a strong, long-lasting material. A corrugated metal fence will typically last several decades, and the metal panels themselves may last for 40 to 60 years. The main thing you should be concerned about is the fence posts. Wood fence posts will last about five years if you purchase them untreated or about 15 years if you treat them after installation. Keep an eye on your posts and look out for insect damage and rot.
