Recent Dog Fencing Reviews in Virginia Beach
- Tony Bailey A & B UndergroundTony is great. I called several contractors (even Angie's List) with no success because most want to sell you their own products. This system had been working great for us with our dogs for the last 7 years in another state. We just moved back to VB and needed to install a pet fence for our dog. We choose to order our system online (cheaper) and have it installed. Tony is the only person who responded without an outrageous price. He owns all the equipment needed. Our yard and obstacles were probably more unique than the average yard and electronics fences
- All Pet Stop FencingThey were excellent. The price was good. They are better on price and just as good on quality than the competition. It worked OK.
- INVISIBLE FENCE OF HAMPTON ROADSA family owned and operated business, Charlie came out to meet the dog and to write up an appraisal for the fencing. This took about an hour. I was promised an immediate appointment and the office called me the next day to schedule that appointment. A chatty man by the name of Kevin came out the next week, installed the invisible fencing, put up the flags, and gave and quot;Wilburand quot; his first instruction. There were five instruction sessions, each an hour long, for and quot;Wilburand quot; and me if I wanted to watch, that the company included with the fencing. and quot;Wilburand quot; loved Kevin, and responded positively to all the training Kevin had to offer. Wilbur learned the process in two days and I have nothing but praise for the Invisible Fencing Company and Wilbur. If I had it to do over again, I would call the same company because and quot;Wilburand quot; and I were treated with kindness and respect and the Company did exactly what they said they would do. This and the fact that Invisible Fence Company is the only invisible fence co. in the Tidewater area. Not much comparison to be done unless you want to do the work yourself, which I did not
- INVISIBLE FENCE OF HAMPTON ROADSWe called Invisible Fence of Hampton Roads because one of our dogs insisted on digging out under the fence. After chasing her down the street every day for a solid week, we decided enough was enough. Everyone was very responsive and Charlie came out to look at the yard and give an estimate within a couple of days of our initial call. The fence was installed by Kevin who explained the process in great detail and really worked with several obstacles in our yard without a single complaint. He was wonderful with the dogs and very thorough in training us as well as the pups. The entire process only took 3 hours. Harry and Tina were also there to assist with the installation and worked with the dogs. We received a lot of good advice about dogs in general too. They were very professional, knowledgeable, patient and concerned that we were comfortable with the new equipment. I would definitely call them again if I needed an invisible fence
- All Pet Stop FencingExcellent as always! Marty came out and repaired part of the fence line that I had cut through. Great service!
- INVISIBLE FENCE OF HAMPTON ROADSAll the personnel from Invisible Fence were very professional and personable from the office, the gentlemen who installed the wiring and those who trained my 2 dogs (German Shepherd and Rottweiler mix). The dogs learned very quickly how far they could go in the yard and they didn't like it if they went too far in the driveway and received a and quot;zapand quot; in the neck if they get too close to the wire. It is now 3 months later and they know their limitations even if they don't have their collars on. The dogs won't chase bike riders, squirrels, chase other dogs and only go to the end of my car in the driveway. Thanks for making it safer for my dogs and the neighbors
- All Pet Stop FencingMarty did a great job. Explained entire process, was on time and professional on the job site. He did a good job working with and training my dogs. I did think cost was a little high - but Marty was clear on the price before I committed to the work - so there were no surprises. His work was excellent

"I am writing to give the highest possible recommendation to contractor DON SANDERS of CAVALIER ENTERPRISES (757) 681 – 7851. Don has thirty years of experience in the field with jobs both big and small, and he brings absolute professionalism to the job. My husband Edward and I were very impressed with him, his crew, and the work that they did fixing and upgrading our home for us after a pipe exploded in the attic, flooding and ruining ceilings, walls, cabinets, and flooring. Don stood out from the other contractors who gave us quotes when we first began the process of recovering from the burst pipe. He was hands on, meticulously detailed, and quick in responding. He has a wealth of experience dealing with various insurance companies and emergency situations. His expert advice really helped us to maximize the amount of money we got from our insurance company with which to do the repairs. I want to tell one story which illustrates what a great guy Don is. He knew living with a section of our kitchen ceiling missing, exposing us to the cold early January drafts from the attic, was very upsetting to me. Before he did anything else, and before he even got one penny of money from us, he had his guys put up a temporary patch on that ceiling so that the house was warm and we weren’t exposed to the frigid attic anymore. That was extremely kind; most businessmen probably wouldn’t have thought and/or bothered to do that. It really meant a lot to us that he did. Don has a great personality and is a pleasure to work with. He possesses the unique ability to please the wife with high-end finishes but also keep the husband happy with price-busting ideas. He is honest about price ranges, time frames, etc. He has great taste and ideas for upgrades, but he does not try to “up-sale” his clients at all. He just listens to what you want and like and then presents you with options. Don sets the positive, professional, perfectionist tone for all his employees as well. His crew was unfailingly polite, helpful, tidy, and considerate. They took great pride in their work, as they should, because their work is beautiful. I respect them as talented artisans. They were extremely careful when they had to move our furniture and other possessions around. They were also very kind to our two dogs. When all was said and done, our home, which had been nice before, ended up being even more beautiful and functional. They installed perfect recessed lighting for us in several rooms as well as in-cabinet and under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen. The framers and sheetrock guys were meticulous about covering doorways, furniture, etc. to keep the dust from covering the rest of the home. The plasterers and painters did flawless work. The tile guys and flooring guys did such a nice job that my husband kept getting up in the middle of the night to look at it! The vertical herringbone pattern backsplashes in our kitchen are as beautiful as a work of art. All the crown moulding and chair railing they added in our den is perfect. We love every bit of the renovations and upgrades and would not change a thing! The transformation was more than worth having to live through the burst pipe! We would hire Don and his crew again in a heartbeat. In fact, we plan to hire them when we are ready to have our bathrooms gutted and redone. We know they will do a beautiful job and be wonderful to work with. Because of our great experience, my parents also intend to have their home renovated by Don and his crew. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone for any renovation/repair/upgrade/building project.

<br /> Among other things, they have repaired our home following flooding from broken pipe, installed ceramic tile in our kitchen and bathrooms, replaced degraded flashing that caused a roof leak, and completely remodeled our kitchen. The quality of workmanship has always been exceptional and the cost reasonable.
<br /> Absolutely professional, thorough breakdown and explanation of charges - including cost and benefit of different materials and options, and impeccably honest.
<br /> They have had a key to our place since the first time they worked on it, which has been very handy for emergency situations that arose when we were out of town and when taking time off of work was problematical.

Fencing FAQ
-
How much does it cost to install a fence?
Answer: The average cost to install a fence is $2,600. A variety of factors will impact the overall cost of fencing installation, such as the length of the fence, the materials you choose, and local labor costs. Fencing projects using the lowest cost materials and with lower labor costs can cost as little as $1 to $6 per linear foot, while projects using the highest cost materials and with higher labor costs may be as high as $15 to $45.
-
Do I need a permit to build a fence around a yard?
Answer: Whether you’ll need a permit to build a fence around your yard will depend on your city or county's local codes. Many metropolitan and suburban areas require a permit to install most fencing, but they may not for fences situated behind a house as opposed to in front of it or fences that don’t run within a certain distance of the road. To find out if you’ll need a permit to fence your yard, reach out directly to your local government office.
-
What is the cheapest fence to install?
Answer: The cheapest fencing to install is chain-link fencing. Chain-link fencing is typically cheaper than other fence types because the materials cost less, and installation is generally quicker and easier than other options. Chain-link fencing is affordable, easy to install, and low maintenance. However, it’s usually considered less secure than other options and doesn’t increase resale value as much as fences made of different materials.
-
Is a wood or vinyl fence cheaper?
Answer: Wood fences are generally cheaper than the cost of vinyl fences. While the cost of materials for wood and vinyl fences is usually very similar, the labor cost associated with installing a vinyl fence is higher. Wood fencing is also easier to install than vinyl fencing, making it possible to save money by making wood fence installation a DIY project. It’s also possible to DIY install a vinyl fence.
-
What is the life expectancy of a vinyl fence?
Answer: Vinyl fencing can be expected to last between 10 and 30 years. Vinyl fencing is generally low maintenance, but proper care will ensure it lasts as long as possible. Its long life span and high return on investment make vinyl fencing a popular option for many homeowners.
-
What type of fence adds to the property value?
Answer: Installing quality fencing, no matter the fence type, will generally add value to your property. In general, fences made of longer-lasting, lower-maintenance, and more attractive materials—like wrought-iron, composite, or vinyl—add more value to a property than fences made of lower-cost or less attractive materials, like chain-link. To ensure your fencing adds as much value to your home as possible, be sure it’s properly permitted, approved by your homeowners association (if you have one), and installed properly.
