"Tom did a great job installing the fence in my backyard. It took a few weeks to order the materials and schedule a date, but once he arrived, the work was done quickly and very well, for WAY less than other quotes I had received. Other quotes were nearly double the price. Highly recommended!"

"Had an old wooden picket fence that was falling apart. Montco Fence replace the wood fence with a white Vinyl picket fence. The guys were terrific, it was a tough job in that part of the fence went through fairly heavy vegetation that required a lot of work to remove the old fence. We are very happy with the work and results. I would recommend and we will use again when it comes time to replace some privacy fencing we have in the next few years."

"If I ever need any fencing done again I would definitely use them. The cost is the best around and the work is done fast and done well. They clean up leaving no mess for you to clean up. The one thing that impressed me was them being on time, that's important in today's busy world. So if you want fencing, concrete work and some tree trimming this is the company you want."

"We had a shed pad installed for our new shed. Bob really worked to make sure we understood the different types of pads we could get as well as the ground leveling process. He was the only contractor we talked to that put the pad in the ground (excavating some dirt) so that it didn't just sit on top. As an added bonus, he swiped away a patch of really thick ivy that we've been struggling with. When scheduling the pad, he did delay the installation due to weather issues, showing real concern that if we didn't delay at least a day, the installation would be less than the professional level he likes to leave with. I left for the morning to go to work and when I came home, the pad was ready for a shed.
Bob shows a concern for his homeowner's well being in all matters and is very knowledgable. I fully recomend him to anyone seeking a similar install, and will consider Rock-a-fella's when ever I have a gravelly/patio/deck need in the future.

"They completed the work in a day and did a great job removing the old fence. After they left I noticed the 6' gate (two doors) seemed to be (where the doors meet) to be poorly cut and one board wasn't nailed in. Also, in removing the old fence they had taken the rain meter for the sprinkler system, which was secured to the fence. I emailed them and they returned the next day and patched up the 6' gate and had the rain meterds. I then noticed after they left the the 4' gate would not close all the way in part due to the humidity and swelling the wood. I mailed them again (x3) and the owner came out and filed down the wood. However, this solution didn't last and again the gate wasn't able to close all of the way. I've emailed and called several times only to be told that someone would be out or the boss would call me as soon as he got in. The fence was installed on June 30 and it is now August 8, and the gate is useless. What started as a great experience has now left me wondering whether I made a wise choice. I'm just wanting a functioning gate. I don't think that's asking too much."

"Came on time, many workers were hired for initial dredging and clean up of concrete so it went relatively uneventful. The areas with our personal things were taped off with plastic. We were very pleased with the process. And 2 years later still are glad we chose Rightway for the job. They weren't the cheapest nor the highest priced but we felt fair for the job. Plus there was no surprises or extra costs."
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.

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.
