"There was a security issue on a large industrial chain link gate so it was imperative that the gate was fixed in one day. I listed the project at 6:15 am and Chad called at 6:30 am. He immediately understood the issue and rearranged his schedule to get the repair done before dark. Excellent communication on his status of arrival and when he got there he immediately solved the problem. Chad is the president and is Terrific. Highly recommend him and his Co. Robert Skinner"

"We’re absolutely thrilled with the work Tom and his team did on our backyard in Oakland! They transformed the space by installing grass, a sprinkler system, a flagstone area, a pergola, and a fence, while also addressing drainage issues to ensure the yard stays in great shape for years to come. Tom was reliable, responsive, and a true professional. From our first consultation, he listened to our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and kept us informed every step of the way. His communication made the entire process seamless and stress-free. The crew was fantastic—punctual, respectful, and hardworking. They showed up on time every day, worked efficiently, and left the site spotless. Thanks to Tom and his team, our backyard is now a stunning, functional space that we love. We couldn’t recommend Tomservice more highly!"

Frequently asked questions
- Budget: Your budget is central in influencing which fence you buy. Figure out your spending limit and determine your budget per linear foot, as fencing costs can quickly add up.
- Durability: Consider strength, lifespan, resistance to pests, rot and fungus, rust, and the material’s ability to withstand local weather conditions.
- Maintenance: Maintenance, cleaning and repairs should be simple and minimal.
- Purpose: The style of fence you choose should be suitable for its intended purpose.
- Installation: Find out what installation requirements, such as foundations or supports, are necessary. Research if DIY is possible or if professional installation is your only option.
- Wood fence styles range from traditional to contemporary and from purely functional to attractive and decorative.
- Lattice fences are affordable and decorative. You can use them as privacy fences by growing dense foliage over them.
- Vertical board fences are the most common type of residential fence. There are budget-friendly options available as well as higher-end panels. Vertical board fences are affordable choices for basic privacy and security fences.
- Picket fences conjure up cozy images of traditional properties with carefully tended lawns. They’re good for demarcating a property boundary but don’t provide much security.
- Post-and-rail fences are a solid choice for making a boundary over a large area, as material use is minimal. However, they don’t provide any security or privacy.
- Metal fences are generally stronger and more secure than other materials. You can choose from highly ornate and secure metalwork or simple but functional wire. For the higher-end options, which are often costly, homeowners often reduce costs per square foot by combining the metal with brick.
- Aluminum fencing is an attractive, more affordable alternative to wrought iron. Although it has a similar appearance, it’s not as strong as wrought iron.
- Steel fencing is a strong, long-lasting fencing option that’s good for creating a secure barrier around your home.
- Vinyl fencing made from PVC comes in a range of styles, including those that mimic real wood.
- Composite fencing is an amalgamation of wood fibers, pulp or sawdust and ground plastic particles that are bonded and held together by an acrylic resin. It looks and feels like real wood and is an environmentally friendly choice, as it usually contains a high percentage of recycled materials.
- Wire fences are not made to enhance the aesthetics of your property, although some homeowners opt for black fencing to help boost aesthetics. They are inexpensive, purely functional products suitable for DIY or professional installation.
- Barbed wire fencing isn’t common in residential settings. While it’s an inexpensive, fierce and intimidating security deterrent, it isn’t attractive and will not add value to your home.
