"Everything went wonderfully with this company.  They were very professional, listened to exactly what my problem was, and explained to me how they were going to diagnose the problem and/or solve it before doing any actual work.  Once they started, the team (three people came) worked together like a well-oiled machine.  One was in the room with diagnostics, one was at the fuse box looking for possible problems there, and the third went into the crawlspace beneath our house to look at the physical wiring.  Once the problem was found (there was a faulty wire beneath the house that had come loose from the junction box), it was fixed and tested within minutes and another full diagnostic was done to make sure there were no other possible issues.  They cleaned up after themselves very neatly.  They also replaced the light switch with a dimmer switch at no extra cost!  Well within my budget, and came in even lower than their original (FREE) estimate!  I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Bergen County area.

"It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased for my mother. It was a horrible experience for both of us.  The guy who did the original review of the job was great. He was a real nice guy and seemed knowledgeable. He gave us some ideas and came out on a weekend to evaluate the job. He said that they were kind of busy and would schedule out for the first week in September. That was acceptable because we were not in a rush. We hadn't heard anything as of the last week of August so we called because we knew that we that some items, such as a tub, shower and vanity had to be purchased and we didn't know if we had to buy them or not. He said that he was too busy to begin as anticipated and would have to push it out. We pushed it out a week, then another week, then another week. About 1 1/2 months went by and we were trying to pin them down with a date before Thanksgiving. We ended up having to contact the owner of the company who said they would start the next week. They started that next week and started gutting everything and then they left it hanging for about 2-3 weeks. There was no response to email or phone. Finally we got hold of the owner again and was able to get them to come in and finish the job. It wasn't the best job in the world with rough walls, paint splatters, a ceiling exhaust fan only exhausted into the attic (not externally), and dirty. 

The job was decent overall, the price was great, but hey still owe us money. We paid an additional $400 because we had some additional work that needed to be done to bring the electrical up to code...that's fine. The Materials allowance was $1200 and my mother purchased everything on her own with the exception of the toilet which was a $150 cutoff. So by our math, she is due $1,050. She did have some additional work performed, for which she put an additional $400 deposit for the electrician, and owes the remainder: $238. So by this math, $1,050 - 238 = $812. Providing payment in the amount of $800 would be sufficient to put this behind us.

FAQs for fencing service projects in Peterborough, NH

Yes, most states require a fencing installer to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed fence installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

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.

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

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. 

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?

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.
