This is the 2nd fence they’ve done for us, and we can’t recommend Perfect Picket enough. Nicolas is such a great guy and came out right away when we asked for a consultation, and the building of the fence didn’t start much longer after that. The guys on his crew were super friendly and knowledgeable. We are in love with our new fence - 10/10

We recently had Perfect Picket Fence and stain install our new fence, and it looks fantastic! The team showed remarkable dedication, working through both rain and shine. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship truly stand out, and it's clear they take great pride in their work. Professionalism at its finest!The fence adds a great touch to our property at The Outpost in Oran, Iowa for our new beer garden, and the whole experience was seamless. I highly recommend Perfect Picket Fence and stain for anyone looking for quality fencing and service!

I am so glad I took the leap and had my fence professionally installed. I was so worried it wouldn't be possible in the middle of winter. I needed it ASAP. I called and left my number and Nick called back within minutes. He answered every question I had and gave me the quotes for all the options I had asked for! Litterally the nicest person I have have the pleasure to do business with! The fence looks great! It's very secure and that gives me piece of mind during storms and all the wind we get that it will stand through it. Definitely would recommend Perfect Picket Fence and Stain to anyone who needs a fence installed!

Perfect Picket did an outstanding job putting in our chain-link fence and gates. They came in and knocked out in a day, and even sooner than we originally planned on it being done.What really sold me to leave this review was the fact that, upon reviewing the photos of the work, Nick noticed an issue (that I had missed even), pointed it out to me, and had one of his guys come out the next morning to correct it. They stand by their work and want it done right to the smallest detail.If you're on the fence about contacting these guys, don't be.

Nickolas and his crew did an awesome job. I have 318 foot of 6' privacy fence. In total they spent about 21 - 22 hours over a two day period to finish the job. We went with Stained Western Red Cedar. It's Beautiful. Everything was spelled out in the quote, and that's precisely what they did on the job. His crew were very courteous, knowledgeable and were craftsman at their trade. I would recommend them to anyone needing to have fencing work done. My wife and I are excited about our new fence.

Nick and his crew did a phenomenal job!! This started from the time Nick arrived to take a look at the scope of the project, through the bidding process and execution of the installation. He made the process stress free and did a great job explaining everything. The fence looks great and the quality is evident upon closer inspection. I would highly recommend Perfect Picket Fence for any of your fencing needs!!

Nick and his team were terrific with our fence and deck. We had a series of unusual complications on our project (weather, etc.) that were not Nick's fault, but he took it upon himself to make sure we were taken care of every step of the way. This was one of the best local business experiences I've had in Cedar Falls. Highly recommended!

Absolutely had a great experience with Perfect Picket. We needed our 3 year old fence stained and Nick came out and gave us an estimate we were very happy with. We let him know that we were in no hurry, so the delay due to the VERY wet summer was not an issue for us. When they were able to start, they were very quick and professional. I am extremely happy the way everything worked out and would highly recommend them to anyone.

I enjoyed working with Nick; he answered all my questions about materials and maintenance about the fence. He and his team did an excellent job! Many people have complimented me on how the fence looks and now the pecan stain color. I’d highly recommend Perfect Picket Fences!

Perfect Picket Fence was recommended to us by our neighbors. We are thrilled with how it turned out. We needed our backyard fence replaced and chose white vinyl. Not only does our fence look spectacular but now keeps our dog secured in the yard. Nick and his crew were very easy to work with. He communicates very well and checks in even after the job is finished. He is incredibly meticulous which shows in the workmanship of him and his crew.

Nick and crew were awesome and I would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone who wants an amazing experience! They not only built me a fantastic fence for my dogs, but repaired the gate that another company installed. First rate customer service, quality building materials, and everything ended up Perfect!Absolutely the best in the Cedar Valley, and beyond! You will not be disappointed in any way, from start to finish, they were top shelf!

The owner Nick returned my call the next day and came out the following day. Now thats’s service! Ours was not a big job, as he stated, but he responded to uswith complete knowledge, respect, and communication. We were very pleased with his reasonable and firm quote. We did experience a few delays due to the special order color, my lack to provide some pertinent information, and his crew battling sickness this time of year; but it was worth the wait. Our fence was installed in one day, making sure we were informed every step of the way. He assured us that if we had any issues in the future, we should contact him, as he stands behind his work. We love our new fence. We would recommend Perfect Picket Fence to anyone with confidence; knowing that Nick and crew would do an amazing job!
