Nick and his crew did a fantastic job on my backyard fence. I originally had planned on installing a far more expensive fence, but Nick showed me why my yard wasn't configured for such a fence. This was a clear example of his integrity. They communicated with me every step of the way and bent over backwards to get the job done ASAP. The price was very reasonable. These guys are real pros. I won't go with anyone else for my fencing needs. I love my new fence.Dan Steele

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️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!!

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.

Nicholas and the crew did a great job. We had a 4 ft transition to 8 ft vinyl fence installed between our driveway and the neighbors and they went above and beyond what was expected. Nick was very transparent in what was involved and kept us informed of any delays or glitches. Very important. I would highly recommend Perfect Picket Fence and Stain for your next fence project.

Great experience!When we reached out about a quote, we fully expected to have to wait - for a response, for a quote, and for installation. This was 110% NOT the case with Perfect Picket Fence and Stain.They were quick to stop by and provide a quote. Then, when we changed our minds (twice), they obliged with no hesitation. And finally, when it came time to scheduling an install date, their availability worked perfectly with our schedule.Installation day proved to be one of the hottest, most humid days of the summer, but it didn’t seem to bother the three gentlemen working in our fence at all. They arrived on time, confirmed how the fence should be laid out, and got right to work. They were efficient, hard working, respectful, and just all around a good group of guys.The end result is precisely what we wanted and the final price was exactly as quoted. We couldn’t be more pleased.

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.

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!!

Nick and his team were great to work with. He discussed the materials thoroughly and answered all of our questions. When they got to work, it was done quickly and accurately. My wife and I have peace of mind knowing their team is always available for any maintenance questions that may come up in the future. We love our mahogany-stained cedar privacy fence and will continue to recommend Perfect Picket to all of our friends!Edit: Had Nick and his team come back for some add-ons to the fence. Just like the first time, super friendly and easy to work with. Day of install, his teams went above and beyond to make a great looking fence even better. Will continue to recommend to anyone who wants any fencing work done!
