This garden fence exceeded all our expectations. The materials feel high-quality, durable, and reinforced to last throughout all seasons for years to come.It adds a beautiful, polished look to our yard while still feeling natural and unobtrusive. It provides great privacy and security, but still allows the garden to feel open and welcoming. Installation was well communicated, straightforward, and timely. Overall, this fence has completely elevated the look of our garden. We couldn’t be happier with the purchase and service from Perfect Picket Fence and Stain. We would highly recommend them!

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 would hire this company again! They arrived on time in the morning and got right after it, and got it done fast, with quality workmanship. The price was quite abite cheaper than another company's qoute.

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

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 black chain link fence installed and couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. From start to finish, the team was professional and easy to work with—no pressure at all during the estimate, which I really appreciated. The installation was quick, clean, and done right the first time. The fence looks great and adds a nice touch to the yard. Highly recommend!!

Perfect Picket Fence did a great job not only installing the fence but helping with the design and fabrication. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks Nick and the Perfect Picket Fence crew.

Nicholas and his team were fantastic from the first phone call. I felt incredibly informed from start to finish - from a video walkthrough of the estimate through to final installation. It was great to be kept in the loop on the whole process. The work was professional, thorough, and tidy. Would definitely recommend Nicholas and his team!

This review is long overdue. Nick was super easy to work with throughout the entire process. The western red cedar fence looks fantastic. There were a couple small issues after inspecting the fence, and Nick chose to come out and finish everything up and make sure it was perfect even though it was Thanksgiving Day. He went above and beyond our expectations and I would highly recommend him and his crew!

We hired Nick and his team at Perfect Picket to install a vinyl fence to enclose our backyard. The final results have amazed us. The fence is lined up perfectly, has amazing curb appeal and exceeds our expectations. Nick and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything about the fence was perfect and it is. I highly recommend Perfect Picket Fence to anyone that wants a quality fence installed by people that really care about you and your satisfaction with the work they do. I cannot say enough about the wonderful experience of working with Nick and his team at Perfect Picket.

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.
