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 had the opportunity to connect with Nick while getting quotes for a fencing project, and I was genuinely impressed.He was extremely professional, transparent, and clearly takes a lot of pride in doing things the right way. What stood out most was his integrity. He gave a fair, straightforward quote right from the start and took the time to explain everything transparently. It was obvious he was equally interested in meeting goals, expectations, and building a relationship as he was the actual work itself. He took videos explaining goals and the project, and saves them for reference.I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for fencing work.

My experience with Perfect Picket was nothing short of fantastic! Nick was great to work with from the very beginning! He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was very communicative. He kept me in the loop with scheduling and where they were at within the prep process.I changed my mind on fence style last minute and I am so so glad I did! I chose the red cedar, cap and trim, board on board style, stained in chestnut. Let me tell you, I am absolutely OBSESSED!! It may be the most beautiful fence I’ve ever seen and I find myself just staring at it in admiration.Nick’s team, Alex and Ryder, did such an amazing job. They clarified how I wanted everything to look before they started and constructed this fence beautifully. They paid such great attention to detail and made special trips back to make touch ups to the stain, where needed. Areas on the fence that not even I noticed needed touching up.I would hire Nick and his team every time. This project wasn’t cheap but with the work Perfect Picket does, it is worth every penny! I look forward to having them back in the future for phase 2 of my project!!

I am so glad that I called Perfect Picket first. I needed a falling apart wooden fence replaced. Nick was very friendly and efficient. I got exactly the fence I needed in a timely manner. The crew who put up the fence were great. They checked in a few times to explain what they were doing and in the end to make sure that I was completely satisfied. They hauled away the old fence as part of the deal.

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

Nicholas was great to work with from the very beginning! Very professional and personable, and he explained every step of the process and answered all questions we had. His team installed our black vinyl-coated chain-link fence in just over 3 hrs. The quality of work was definitely worth the investment and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results! We would definitely recommend Perfect Picket Fence and Stain to all of our friends and family. Our dog, Birdie, is living her best life!!!

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!
