"Was going to buy a fence and install it myself but decided to just let a pro do it. A week latter and the customer service is still top notch. Only complaint was I think the fence was originally set a little high but that was an easy change. If your looking for a dog fence I highly recommend Dog Guard."

"Original project was estimated with removing existing fence posts (18 total), leveling to proper fence height, pouring cement to set repositioned post, and replacing broken gate hinges. Estimate provided by Eli. When A&E arrived and started removing first couple of posts, Eli?s father, most experienced member of crew, noticed the existing post cement had not heaved. So he felt removing existing posts was not necessary. Instead he recommended pounding the posts back down into existing concrete until level and drilling holes in posts to allow new concrete to create more of an anchor to keep them from sliding out of concrete base. This eliminated a lot of manual work and lessened damage to yard. I thought this was a good idea and thought the cost of the job would reflect a lesser amount since this cut the total job time more than half. Instead they did not adjust the bill accordingly. I would expect a company to treat their customers fairly and not overcharge when the planned work changes without the customer complaining or requesting such. Instead I ended paying the original estimate ($1,400), which equates to approx. $150 / hour (crew of 3), plus materials. Total job completed in 2.5 - 3 hours, which was great. I think this was extremely high for 1 highly skill worker and 2 apprentices. I gave A&E 4 stars because they did do a good job. Fence looks great. I just feel like it should have been a little less $ for the amount of work they ended up having to do. I did examine the original estimate and it only stated leveling the fence, no specifics on how this was to be done. But verbally it was understood they would have to dig out new fence posts, re-level and re-cement. Lessons learned on my part?get a detailed contract and if the actual work deviates, then adjust final bill."

"Todd is wonderful! He quoted me a price and was here on time, the day he said he would be. He even trained myself and my dog how to use the fence. - Fast forward 6 months, and I called him the day before Christmas as I wanted another section in my yard 'fenced off" - he said I'll be next week. What a guy! It was cold and wet today, and he was out there working just like he said. Quality and service is outstanding! You can't go wrong and you and your pet will be forever thankful for his service. Why go anywhere else, when you can get support local and receive great customer service Thanks Todd!"

FAQs for fencing service projects in Des Moines, IA

Financial responsibility depends on where the fence sits. If it’s clearly inside your lot, you foot the bill. When it’s right on the property line, state laws—California and Illinois are two examples—usually require both neighbors to split repair costs equally unless you agree otherwise. Check your local rules before scheduling work so you know exactly what you’re on the hook for.

Start by walking the fence line and noting every issue—loose boards, leaning posts, cracked panels. Next, gather at least three quotes from licensed contractors, comparing experience, warranties, and costs. Once you pick a pro, they’ll secure materials, reset posts, and fix or replace damaged sections. A thorough inspection and a qualified contractor keep the fence safe and extend its life.

Straightening a leaning fence costs an average of $200 to $400. A fencing pro will assess the damage, reset or replace the posts, and realign the panels so the fence stands upright again. Fixing the lean early on prevents further strain on framing and keeps the structure both sturdy and attractive.
