| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood & Privacy Fence Installation | From $27/ft | A 6-ft board-on-board cedar fence suits Greensboro's tree-lined blocks. Pressure-treated posts set in concrete, cedar or treated-pine pickets, board-on-board or side-by-side. We say honestly when cedar earns its price and when treated pine is the smarter call. |
| Vinyl & PVC Fence Installation | From $38/ft | Low-maintenance vinyl privacy, picket and ranch-rail fencing that shrugs off humid Piedmont summers. Manufacturer-backed panels, correct post spacing and concrete-set footings, with no warping shortcuts. Honest guidance on where vinyl beats wood and where it does not. |
| Chain Link Fence Installation | From $16/ft | Galvanized and black vinyl-coated chain link for yards, dogs and commercial lots. The toughest fence per dollar in Guilford County: correct gauge, properly tensioned mesh and braced corners, with privacy slats or windscreen where you want them. |
| Aluminum & Ornamental Iron Fencing | From $42/ft | Powder-coated aluminum and ornamental iron for pools, front yards and estate frontage. Rust-resistant panels, clean welds and racked installation that follows rolling Piedmont grade instead of stepping down it. The premium look that survives our wet spring thunderstorms. |
| Fence Repair | From $450 | Leaning sections, split pickets and sagging gates, repaired in any fence material. Panels knocked loose by a spring thunderstorm go back on the same line. We tell you when a repair will hold and when replacement is the better spend. Most jobs finish in a single visit. |
| Storm Damage Fence Repair | Free damage assessment | We rebuild storm-flattened fence fast: same line, same look, stronger posts. Spring thunderstorms and wind from hurricane remnants tracking inland take down whole runs here. We document the damage with photos and a written estimate to support your insurance claim. |
| Fence Post Repair & Replacement | From $450 | Greensboro's red clay holds water against a post and rots it at the ground line. That is why most fences here start to lean. We reset or replace posts in fresh concrete, plumb and braced, saving the rest of your fence instead of selling you a new one. |
| Gate Installation & Repair | From $475 | Custom wood, vinyl and metal gates built square and hung right. Adjustable hinges, self-latching hardware and anti-sag bracing, plus rebuilds of dragging gates. On a sloping Piedmont lot the gate is usually the first part of a fence to give out. |
| Automatic & Driveway Gates | From $2,800 | Sliding and swing driveway gates with professional-grade openers, keypads and safety sensors. Installation and repair on all major opener brands, plus solar options for acreage in Summerfield, Oak Ridge and Stokesdale where trenched power is a long run. |
| Pool Fence Installation | From $34/ft | Aluminum, mesh and glass pool barriers installed to meet the pool barrier code that applies at your address. That means a minimum barrier height with self-closing, self-latching gates, and we walk the requirements with you before a single post is set. |
| Fence Replacement & Removal | From $2,400 | Complete tear-out, haul-away and rebuild, or a straight removal if that is all you need. On older ranch and mill-village lots we often find posts worth keeping. We quote repair against full replacement side by side so you decide with real numbers. |
| Fence Staining & Restoration | From $950 | Cleaning, brightening and stain-sealing for cedar and treated-pine fences. Done right it can double the life of the wood through humid Piedmont summers and winter freeze-thaw. We tell you when staining still pays and when the wood is past saving. |
| Commercial & Temporary Fencing | Free site quote | Commercial chain link, security fencing, temporary construction fence and silt fence. We cover jobsites across Guilford County and the Triad with fast installs, code-aware layouts and volume pricing for builders, general contractors and property managers. |
| Farm & Ranch Fencing | From $12/ft | Ranch rail, no-climb horse fence, field wire and pipe fencing for acreage in the horse country north of Greensboro. We cover Guilford, Rockingham, Alamance and Forsyth counties with straight lines over long runs, braced corners and gates sized for trailers. |
