How the scorecard works

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated each business, compared with the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 built on dozens of reviews counts for less than a 4.8 built on more than a hundred. Recency shows how recently customers still leave reviews.

What drives fence pricing around St. Louis

Fence quotes move with the material (cedar, aluminum, vinyl or chain link), the length of the run, the number of gates, and whether the old fence has to come out first. Trees and permit requirements can add time. No prices are published here.

Where these fence crews work

These contractors are based in Overland, Affton and Valley Park, with other addresses on South Jefferson Avenue in St. Louis and on Lemay Ferry Road. Western Fence & Deck’s site lists St. Louis, West County, St. Charles County and Jefferson County as its service area. Searching for a fence company near me? Each listing shows a phone number so you can ask about your address directly.

Questions to put to a fence quote

  • Is the quote in writing, and does it include removing the old fence?
  • Which material do you recommend for my yard, and why?
  • Who handles the permit and any neighborhood approval?
  • How long will the install take once materials arrive?
  • What happens if a post hole hits a tree root?
  • Can you stain, seal or repair the fence later?
