Question 1

How do I choose the right fence contractor?

Accepted Answer

Look for a licensed and insured contractor with strong Google ratings specifically from fence installation projects. Ask whether they handle permitting, mark utility lines before digging, and provide a written warranty on materials and installation.

Question 2

What should I expect to pay for fence installation in my area?

Accepted Answer

Wood privacy fence costs $15–$30 per linear foot installed. Vinyl fence runs $25–$40/linear foot. Chain-link is $10–$20/linear foot. Wrought iron or aluminum ornamental fencing costs $25–$75/linear foot. A typical 150-linear-foot wood privacy fence runs $2,200–$4,500.

Question 3

How long does fence installation typically take?

Accepted Answer

A standard residential fence (150–200 linear feet) typically takes 1–3 days to install. Utility marking, permits, and material lead times can add 1–2 weeks before installation begins.

Question 4

What questions should I ask before hiring a fence contractor?

Accepted Answer

Ask who pulls the permit, whether they call 811 (utility marking) before digging, what post depth they use for your soil type, what the warranty covers, and how they handle property line disputes with neighbors.

Question 5

Are fence contractors on this directory screened?

Accepted Answer

All listings are sourced from Google Business Profiles and ranked by real Google ratings and review volume. No payment changes rankings. Confirm contractor licensing and insurance directly before signing a contract.

Question 6

What if I have a bad experience with a fence contractor?

Accepted Answer

Contact the contractor in writing to request repairs or corrections under the warranty. If contractor licensing violations occurred, file with your state contractor licensing board. Document everything with photos and written records for any dispute resolution.
