Should fence installers be certified or licensed?

<div>Yes, most states require a fencing installer to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-avoid-home-improvement-fraud.htm">unlicensed fence installer</a> 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:<ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul>Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

Very well. Workers showed up at agreed-upon time, finished the job in the time promised, and even made unplanned repairs to underground sprinkler lines that were "discovered" during the fence installation.

Contractor's description and voice mail message is not consistent with actions. Did not return initial call within 24 hours and disappointedly did not show for our appointment even when we purposely set it so he'd miss rush hour and provided a "window of time." No call to cancel and no follow-up...

The fence looks great. The only downside to City Wide was that they were a little slow in making the project happen (they delayed our start time a couple of times) and the garden gate wasn't centered across the path so it looks odd. We'll need to move the path to accommodate the off-centered...

Austin (the owner), installed a beautiful wrought iron fence that tied in with my automatic swing gate. He was very kind to my family and he even helped fix my gate that was leaning! I am very pleased with his work and will definitely be using him again.

The price is a little high, but absolutely WORTH IT. We are very happy with the work that was done. Jim puts a great deal of time and creativity in his work, there is a lot of detail in our gate which helps it match the style of the rest of our 1926 house.
