What to check when hiring fencing contractors in the United States
MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence. No ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.
- Contractor licensing in the US is set by each state (and sometimes the city or county). For electrical, plumbing, HVAC or any major build, confirm the trade is licensed on your state's licensing board before hiring. Unlicensed work where a license is required can void permits and insurance and leave you no recourse.
- Ask for a lien waiver as you pay each stage: in most US states an unpaid contractor or subcontractor can place a mechanic's lien on your home even if you already paid the main contractor, and a signed waiver is your protection.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out.
- Get a written quote and keep guarantee, insurance and payment terms in writing.
How to judge a fencing contractor
Independent, no-ads guidance. The trade-specific checks that matter most, the warning signs, and what to ask before you hire. Use it alongside each contractor’s public evidence above.
Verify before you hire
- Fencing over your state's threshold may need a contractor license (for example the CSLB C-13 fencing license in California): verify where required.
- Many cities require a permit above a height limit and have setback/property-line rules: confirm who pulls the permit, and consider a survey so the fence sits on your line.
- Confirm an 811 utility locate before any post holes are dug.
- Confirm general liability and workers' compensation, and get materials, post-setting (concrete depth), and gate hardware in writing.
Warning signs of a rogue contractor
- Builds to or over the property line with no survey, risking a neighbor dispute.
- Digs post holes without an 811 utility locate.
- No permit where the height requires one.
- No license or insurance, and a large cash deposit.
Questions to ask before you hire
- Do you hold the license (where required) and carry insurance?
- Do we need a permit, and do you know my setback and property line?
- Will you call 811 before digging?
- What material and post depth, and what is the warranty?
Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose a trustworthy fencing contractor?
- Compare the public evidence on each profile: how many independent reviews they have and across how many named sources, the rating and how recent it is, any credential evidence, and the company status. A fencing contractor backed by several named sources is harder to fake than one found in only one place.
- Does MyTrustedTraders rank or recommend fencing contractors for payment?
- No. There are no ads and no paid placement. Fencing contractors are ranked only by the strength of independent public evidence. No one can pay to rank higher, add a badge, or change their reviews.
- Where do the reviews come from?
- They're imported from named public review sources and always shown with the source named. They aren't reviews written on MyTrustedTraders. We cross-check the same business across sources rather than creating new reviews.
- What should I check before hiring a fencing contractor?
- Confirm credentials and insurance directly with the fencing contractor, get a written quote, and run the Cowboy Checker on the business first. MyTrustedTraders helps you shortlist on the evidence. It doesn't replace your own checks before you hire.
