Perfect Picket Fence & Stain installed our fence on schedule, without mess, and on budget. Then several months later out of the blue, they gave us a very nice planter made out of fencing material along with a very beautiful mum. Just their way of saying thank you. Very Classy. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a new or replacement fence.

Best in the business! Phenomenal experience from consultation to finished product. We were looking for a unique modern black fence without the commercial look of vinyl and boy did they deliver. High quality product with clean lines, respectful, professional and efficient crew. Our fence came out perfectly and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a great addition to their home that will stand the test of time.

They were great. They came and worked in very cold conditions to put up my chain link fence that I needed for my American Eskimo dog. It looks wonderful and my dog is happy to have a place to run free without getting lost. They really did a great job .

I want to give Perfect Picket Fence all the stars you have!! They built a cedar fence for my backyard that has the neighbors all coming over to look! Watching them work, it is obvious they are fussy about what they’re doing and the results show it. Good team!And they had a real challenge working around all the landscaping on both sides. Clean up is excellent too.I’ve never been excited about a fence before but if you are thinking about one you will be happy you chose these guys!

Nick and the crew installed a black vinyl chain link fence at our new house a few weeks ago. Our previous house had a black vinyl chain link fence that was damaged in a recent storm. New owners hadn’t taken possession yet so we needed a repair quickly. Nick got there first thing next morning and by the end of the week excellent repairs were made. Great people and great service.

Had a great experience with Perfect Picket. Nicholas was professional, organized, and knowledgeable, and his crew was prompt and fast at their work.We have an older but serviceable fence that was damaged by recent storms and just needed repair, and I was not pressured to have it replaced. In fact, the first question asked was whether we wanted to quote repair, replacement, or both, and when I said repair there was no more discussion on the matter. The estimate was done on the spot and also emailed to me with the option to accept the bid electronically, and it matched the final cost. Compare that to the other company I asked for a quote; they came out but never sent me an estimate.There was a small miscommunication on the repair that required the crew to come back to complete, but the way it was handled speaks to Nicholas' professionalism.

Can’t say enough great things about Perfect Picket Fence and Stain, Nicholas and his team! We were very impressed with Nicholas when he came over to estimate the cost of our area to be fenced. Very professional, very focused and very knowledgeable. We were so glad that we went with him and we are so happy with the results! My husband is very picky and they were able to meet his satisfaction and then some! The team that came in to do the job were excellent, we were impressed with everything they did…such friendly guys and willing to please - don’t see that so much anymore. We highly recommend them to anyone!

I had a contractor who didn’t complete His job and then ghosted me. I’m so thankful for Nick being able to finish it up. I wished I would have known him before all my headaches started with the other guy. I learned the hard ways to not go with a fly be night person. Nick went beyond what he needed to do. If I can afford more fencing it will only be by Nick. I cannot thank you enough Nick

Nick and his crew were extremely personable and thorough. We wanted our pool fenced in for safety but also wanted something that would look nice and withstand the extreme weather/wind we get here. The ornamental steel looks great! Highly recommend Perfect Picket for your fence project!

We had Nicholas replace another section of our fence due to storm damage. His prices were once again very affordable and within a week after the storm our damaged fence was replaced. Will definitely work with him again on future fence replacements.
