Recent Fence Installation Contractor Reviews in Advance
- Alamance Iron Works IncWONDERFUL experience working with the team at Alamance Iron Works. They've helped us with two projects - and both turned out phenomenally well. One involved fabrication of a custom coated metal frame for a deck cable railing that couldn't have fit any more perfectly. The other involved cutting an aluminum handrail for another project - neatly and efficiently done. Prices were reasonable and the team at Alamance Iron Works couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Will definitely use them again for metal fabrication needs
- Rainbow Home ImprovementJose and his crew did an awesome job. The repaired fence section that was replaced looks better than the rest of the fence. Definitely would hire this crew again. Will hire them for my other outdoor projects. Gracia- thank you.
- Rainbow Home ImprovementJose and Santos, of Rainbow Home Improvement, were professionals and gentlemen. They patiently listened to us, offered thoughtful suggestions, worked efficiently, left a clean job site when they finished, and were very respectful throughout. It was a pleasure to do business with them, and we will hire them again when we have another project. They specialize in decking, fencing, and painting
- Crown FenceCrown fence is a joke. They are liars and the owner is a child. Someone who did not live in my home and has no say so on my home and who’s name is not on the title spoke to these children and set up a time for them to come and put a fence up. Mind you I have never spoke to these people never met them and never signed a contract however they made sure to threaten ME that if I didn’t pay them they would take a lien out on my house. So at the time we requested a copy of this contract that he said he had but never presented, which also infact mentions nothing of a lien but the owner clearly states it does. They also tell u to pay them through pay pal but when you do they charge u an extra 30 dollar fee. And then say oh well it’s pay pal but they don’t even tell you that before u pay. Then when u call to have a discussion about the situation the owner starts yelling and refuses to let you speak and when u prove him wrong that he has no legal authority to anything he has threatened with bc the person he spoke to dosnt even have any rights to the property. Please ppl be careful this company is only good at lying and false threats that someone who dosnt know better will get cheated. Avoid avoid avoid And what is funny is the child of an owner cannot spell or type properly. He knew this review was coming he was advised before it was ever posted, and in turn his response is no I didn’t yell you did. And still again says that I didnt pay however I have never even spoke to him before today. He makes sure not to address the pay pal issue or the contract or the fact that it was my property not the other persons.It’s ok bud you will grow up one day. Best of luck to anyone who uses them. Oh and btw if he dosnt like your review he just removes it. This company is a sca
- Beaver FencingJames called mid week to make an Appointment to install our fence on Friday . Janes and his crew arrived promptly on Friday morning. They were super friendly and very personable. James answered any questions that my wife and I had. They did an Awesome job installing the fence around our pool and it is Beautiful!! They Cleaned up and did not leave a mess . These guys are Awesome!! I would recommend Beaver Fencing to anyone
- Paul's Handyman ServicePaul got back to me immediately. I ask him to build me a fence. He guided me in making the right decision for my yard. He was more than knowledgable on all questions I ask him. He surpassed my expectations so I ask him to paint my kitchen. Once again he did not disappoint. Paul has a great personality on top of being knowledgeable. I would refer him for any house work inside or out
- RR FencingI hired R & R to build a 5 rail ranch style wooden fence in May 2021. I hired them because they had done an excellent job for me a few years prior. We had some delays, miscommunications, and a lengthier install than expected during this 2nd job, but when my fence was completed I was happy. Less than a year later, the double gate was sagging and I had difficulty opening it at all. I reached out to Ricky on April 4th and he said he'd be by the following week to take a look. He didn't. On April 29th I reached out again and when he answered May 2nd he said he would stop by that week. He didn't. On May 26th I reached out again, asking when I could expect him. His response was, in part, "we are a little over an hour from you ' since its just a repair and one board it would probably be alot cheaper to get a handy man in your area , because I really don't know when I would get caught up to be available to go do it with all thats piled up on our agenda." Funny, distance was NOT a problem when he accepted the job. I asked him to confirm he would not warranty/repair the sagging gate that lasted less than a year. I never heard from him again. I do NOT recommend R&R, and wish I had not used them at all
- Beaver FencingPerfect fence, went up quickly, & easy to work with. Addressed all questions promptly and clearly. Side note- the workers were very patient and nice to my curious children. I was specifically impressed with the gates.
- Carolina Home SpecialistsThis company was professional and very respectful for my property. They did an amazing job and didn't cut corners. I am looking into replacement windows next. I know several other people that have also used Carolina Home Specialist and have had the same affordable service. Thank you to Tim Ilderton.
- Samuel's Lawn ServiceThey did a great job on the initial job of getting my yard cleaned up and back into shape. They have been doing the biweekly mowing and weeding also and it has been great.

"We had a wonderful experience with R&R from start to finish. When Ricky came by for an in person estimate, it was clear that he knew what he was talking about and has been doing this for a long time. Very professional, kind and trustworthy. Super competitive pricing as well. This was our first fence project and Ricky was so responsive to all my questions (and I had alot lol) It was so comforting to have that communication throughout. Rickys sons came out to do the work and they were fantastic too! They managed to schedule work around the rainy days which was a blessing and they were polite, hard working and had a great eye for detail. They left the backyard in pristine condition after they finished up. We now have a quality built fence and couldn't be happier. Would absolutely go to R&R for all future fencing projects and would recommend to anyone we know.

"Our experience with Champion has been excellent. Starting with the sales visit, our salesman was very knowledgeable of their product and installation procedures. All our questions were answered down to the smallest detail with no pressure to buy. Once we signed the contract we had to wait a bit due to weather and other delays, but once they got started they stayed until the job was done to our satisfaction working late into the evening and always leaving the job site as clean as possible. Their staff is courteous and always willing to answer questions and discuss options. We have enjoyed our sun room for 2 months now and it looks great. Champion added some siding to the outside walls of the sunroom to match the siding on the house and it makes the sunroom look like a beautiful, integral part of the structure. We had to call Champion back out a few weeks after the job was finished to look at some windows that were not gliding smoothly and they came out right away and fixed the problem. We are so pleased we have hired Champion to replace our windows.

Fencing FAQ
-
How much does it cost to install a fence?
Answer: The average cost to install a fence is $2,600. A variety of factors will impact the overall cost of fencing installation, such as the length of the fence, the materials you choose, and local labor costs. Fencing projects using the lowest cost materials and with lower labor costs can cost as little as $1 to $6 per linear foot, while projects using the highest cost materials and with higher labor costs may be as high as $15 to $45.
-
Do I need a permit to build a fence around a yard?
Answer: Whether you’ll need a permit to build a fence around your yard will depend on your city or county's local codes. Many metropolitan and suburban areas require a permit to install most fencing, but they may not for fences situated behind a house as opposed to in front of it or fences that don’t run within a certain distance of the road. To find out if you’ll need a permit to fence your yard, reach out directly to your local government office.
-
What is the cheapest fence to install?
Answer: The cheapest fencing to install is chain-link fencing. Chain-link fencing is typically cheaper than other fence types because the materials cost less, and installation is generally quicker and easier than other options. Chain-link fencing is affordable, easy to install, and low maintenance. However, it’s usually considered less secure than other options and doesn’t increase resale value as much as fences made of different materials.
-
Is a wood or vinyl fence cheaper?
Answer: Wood fences are generally cheaper than the cost of vinyl fences. While the cost of materials for wood and vinyl fences is usually very similar, the labor cost associated with installing a vinyl fence is higher. Wood fencing is also easier to install than vinyl fencing, making it possible to save money by making wood fence installation a DIY project. It’s also possible to DIY install a vinyl fence.
-
What is the life expectancy of a vinyl fence?
Answer: Vinyl fencing can be expected to last between 10 and 30 years. Vinyl fencing is generally low maintenance, but proper care will ensure it lasts as long as possible. Its long life span and high return on investment make vinyl fencing a popular option for many homeowners.
-
What type of fence adds to the property value?
Answer: Installing quality fencing, no matter the fence type, will generally add value to your property. In general, fences made of longer-lasting, lower-maintenance, and more attractive materials—like wrought-iron, composite, or vinyl—add more value to a property than fences made of lower-cost or less attractive materials, like chain-link. To ensure your fencing adds as much value to your home as possible, be sure it’s properly permitted, approved by your homeowners association (if you have one), and installed properly.
