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.

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.

Perfect Picket Fence did an amazing job with all aspects of our fence project! Nicholas was very informative with the quotes and answered numerous questions for us. He showed that he cared about what we wanted and made sure we were happy throughout the process.

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.

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! My husband is very picky and they were able to meet his satisfaction and then some! The team that came in to do the job were excellent, we were impressed with everything they did…such friendly guys and willing to please - don’t see that so much anymore. We highly recommend them to anyone!

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!

Had a great experience with Perfect Picket. Nicholas was professional, organized, and knowledgeable, and his crew was prompt and fast at their work.We have an older but serviceable fence that was damaged by recent storms and just needed repair, and I was not pressured to have it replaced. In fact, the first question asked was whether we wanted to quote repair, replacement, or both, and when I said repair there was no more discussion on the matter. The estimate was done on the spot and also emailed to me with the option to accept the bid electronically, and it matched the final cost. Compare that to the other company I asked for a quote; they came out but never sent me an estimate.There was a small miscommunication on the repair that required the crew to come back to complete, but the way it was handled speaks to Nicholas' professionalism.
