There are dozens of fence companies out there, so why would anyone choose us over them? We have come to find out that many customers who have used contractors typically have bad to average customer service. Our goal at DanDale is to provide exceptional customer service! From the day we give our presentation to the day we fulfill the contract, we work to provide a great experience for you so that when your friends ask about us, then you’re glad to share your experience. Our focus is to work as a team. When our crews work with you, we encourage one another to work together to take care of our customers. We are transparent with the quality of materials, timing, and meeting your expectations as best as possible.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Dan Dale Fence for the installation of my new white vinyl fence, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience! From the very first consultation, which lasted about 45 minutes, I was impressed by how informative my consultant was. He took the time to explain all my options and even provided various financing solutions to fit my budget, which was a huge relief. What stood out to me was how seamlessly they handled my HOA documents. It can be a hassle dealing with those requirements, but Dan Dale Fence made it a breeze. I appreciated their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring everything was in order before moving forward. The installation was scheduled within just a week, and the team was efficient and professional, completing the project in just two days. I was amazed at how quickly they transformed my yard! After the installation, Dan Dale Fence reached out to walk me through my warranty and customer care package, which made me feel valued as a customer. It’s clear that they prioritize customer satisfaction and support even after the project is complete. Overall, I highly recommend Dan Dale Fence for anyone looking to install a fence. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to customer service truly set them apart. Thank you, Dan Dale Fence, for a fantastic experience!"

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

Generally, the height of your dog fence should be 3 times the distance from the ground to your dog’s shoulder. For most small breeds, a 4-foot high fence will be more than enough to keep them from jumping out. Medium-sized breeds like Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and German Shepherds will need at least a 5-6 foot fence to stay contained. Large breeds that are also excellent jumpers, such as Greyhounds, may need a 7-foot high fence. 

A wrought iron fence is worth it if the material suits your home’s needs and the cost fits within your budget. However, wrought iron is not the best choice if you’re looking for a fence that increases privacy. However, if you want a fence and a security gate that complements your brick or stone home with a classy, timeless, and elegant look, wrought iron fencing is a good option. As far as the longevity of wrought iron fencing compared to other materials, wrought iron wins almost every time.

In addition to the fence itself, several factors can impact the overall price of putting a fence in. Consider these add-ons and necessary expenses when building your project budget. For example, additional cost factors may include:

  • Removing your existing fence

  • Land leveling and other site work

  • Tree and stump removal

  • New landscaping

  • Working around underground utilities

  • Painting and staining

If possible, it is beneficial to paint both sides of your fence to protect the fence more completely from the elements. Painting both sides of your fence will create a more consistent appearance as well. However, the time and cost involved in painting both sides of the fence may cause people to paint only the side they see.

Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.
