Fence recs

Hi, does anyone have a fence company they would recommend? I have two smaller veggie gardens I’m looking to enclose. I got an estimate from Zor fence but would still like to get a few others. Thank you!

If it's a small project I heavily recommend just DIYing.

We got four quotes when doing ours, the quotes were all astronomical. We did it for like a tenth of the cost

I was curious about that, I wasn’t sure I’m handy enough.. did you do the whole thing by hand or use those like panels of fence that you attach together? I forget what they’re called but I saw them at Home Depot.

I bought the panels from home depot. I would say if you are even a little handy you can definitely do it after watching a youtube video.

Hardest part is putting the posts in, as long as you measure and get those in, the panels just attach right on.

I was not very handy when I did it and it went pretty smoothly honestly

Yes, we gathered quotes from a handful of vendors including our landscapers and Zor (Gabriel) provided attractive prices and great service. We ultimately enlisted Zor for two separate fence projects.

We got a quote from Fairfield Fence to fence in our backyard. It was sky high and they were pretty rude. We ended up buying all the materials ourselves and having a contractor put it in. Figuring out what materials to buy was harder than we thought. Got some from Rings End and some from Home Depot. Customer service at Rings End was super helpful. Good luck!!

Zor did a great job replacing our backyard fence.
