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.

Amazing customer service, Nick and his crew were amazing. They really listened to us and made our vision for our home the priority. It was clear they know their stuff and took the time to consider our concerns and answer our questions. Everything was done with excellent communication, knowledgeable staff and very high quality construction and materials. Their prices are very reasonable and we will definitely do business with them again.

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!

James

We could not be more delighted and pleased with our new cedar fence and stain. Nick took time and care crafting a design that fit into the style of our home, landscape, and life with three dogs. He kept us updated regularly on the installation timeline. The crew was just as attentive to build quality as Nick was to the design of the fence. We can recommend them highly enough.

I want to give Perfect Picket Fence all the stars you have!! They built a cedar fence for my backyard that has the neighbors all coming over to look! Watching them work, it is obvious they are fussy about what they’re doing and the results show it. Good team!And they had a real challenge working around all the landscaping on both sides. Clean up is excellent too.I’ve never been excited about a fence before but if you are thinking about one you will be happy you chose these guys!

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.
Dan Steele

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

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.

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.

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

Nick and the guys did a fantastic job. I struggled to find someone that was available to fix my chain link and install a privacy fence. Nick was quick to return my call and come over for a consultation. He got me right on his schedule and did a great job. My fence is beautiful and I couldn’t be happier!
