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!!

We worked with Perfect Picket this fall for 2 of our fence projects. There was an extensive consultation with what we hoped to get, what we thought might work, and what would actually work. They were honest about what wouldn't work, discussing issues we never even thought about; even though this might have lost them business. I had 2 other companies consult on these projects and they only took measurements and gave a quote estimate. Once scheduled, there was consistent communication on materials and timelines. Once the work started, it was very quick and efficient. We are very happy with the final project.

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.

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

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 .

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!

We highly recommend them to anyone!

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.

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.

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!
