"Excellent all around. Great plan. Great customer service. Fair price. Prompt installation. Fence installed in 1 day with an amazing team that made sure I was pleased with the layout prior to digging. Filled gaps under fence with dirt dug from post holes so my small dog would not escape under the fence. Trimmed some branches and bushes out if the fence line, cut down a small tree leaning over fence line, and removed an old vegetable garden fence. My husband and I could not be more pleased with how the fence turned out. Our neighbors love it. Our dogs love their freedom to run around. Thank you A&W!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Raymond is more than deserving of all the accolades I have seen in other customer reviews. He took on a very large vinyl fence installation project for me on a piece of property that could best be described as very challenging, and did a superb job. He worked closely with me on every detail. He took all my concerns very seriously and made many valuable suggestions on what would work best visually when dealing with changes in elevation, angled corners, etc. All his recommendations worked out extremely well and the completed job turned out much better than I had hoped. In addition, he took great care to prevent any incidental damage to my property, which is something I feared a larger company using heavy equipment would do. In sum, I can't think of any contractor in any trade with whom I have done business in 35 years as a homeowner that I would recommend more highly."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

Yes, installing a picket fence is a manageable DIY project for homeowners with basic tools and some patience. The process involves marking the fence line, digging post holes, setting the posts, and attaching horizontal rails and pickets. However, precision is key to ensure the fence is straight and sturdy, which can be challenging for beginners. If the fence line is long, the ground is uneven, or you’re working with more complex materials like metal or composite, hiring a pro may be a better option.

Retaining walls offer more value to a home if they also divert water, prevent erosion, or help support a foundation. The ROI of a retaining wall is between 100% and 200%.

Both fences and walls can increase your home’s value, but you’ll spend significantly more on a wall than you would on a fence. A stone wall costs approximately $5,000, a retaining wall costs $6,100, and a fence costs $3,200 on average to put prices in perspective. 

Galvanized metal, vinyl, and composite fences are known to be the longest-lasting options, often surviving for over 30 years with proper care. Metal fences, including galvanized chain link and aluminum, can look great for decades because the galvanization process adds a protective coating that resists weather and pests. Similarly, vinyl and composite materials are resistant to pests and can withstand harsh weather for many years. In comparison, a typical wood fence lasts about 15 years, and a standard vinyl fence has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.

In the vast majority of cases, chain-link fences are less expensive than wood fences. Installing a wood fence costs anywhere from 20% to 30% more than a chain-link fence, or an average of $3,100, whereas a similarly sized chain-link fence will average around $2,400. Even with add-ons and additional protective finishes, a chain-link fence is very likely to cost you less than a wood fence. The only exception would be a split rail wood fence, which can cost about half the price of a chain-link fence or less.
