Fence building in Charleston?

Do you know anyone who does fencing? I'd like to have a fence built ASAP, now that we have a dog.

Re: Fence building in Charleston?

  • sorry I am from the upstate so I don't know anyone in charleston, but I did want to give you some pointers on findind someone and to let you know that we built our fence FOR our dogs too and it was the BEST thing we did, now they can play and have fun without any worries.

    Tips:

    Don't pay for an estimate...it's ridiculous for a place to make you and it shows they won't do anything to help you out for little cost- they want $$ for EVERYTHING!

    Ask about gate deals...we got 1 single gate and one double gate (to drive a truck through in case we need to haul stuff) and they gave us a bogo deal

    Make sure the estimate is fixed!!! you don't want your builder changing the cost halfway through on you b/c they made a mistake in measuring....it's their fault, you don't need to pay any extra for it (unless you personally make changes)

    get the planks to run all the way to the ground, is it safer for your dogs and your property- b/c ours can't see under the fence, they've never been tempted to dig and they can't squeeze out!

    Good luck!!

  • Hey, thanks! I really appreciate the tips.

  • Our boxer has the same collar as yours, btw yours is adorable! We have a fawn male ( 3 yrs old) and an all white female puppy ( 5 mnths).

    We just built a fence as well, but my H did it on his own. We received estimates from a few different places, Capital Fence Company and two others, but they were double what it was to do it ourselves. It only took approx 3 days also around his work schedule and we have a HUGE yard.

    You should save a good bit of money if you have the time to do it yourself.

     Good luck!

  • Thanks! I think she's awesome too. I am so jealousE that you have a puppy! My husband would have no clue how to build a fence and would never even think about attempting to do so. I think we want iron or aluminum, anyway. I found someone who does them, so I will be giving him a call this week. Thanks.
