"About 15 years ago, we purchased a swing set for our yard. Our kids and the neighborhood kids spent hours playing outside on it.

Truly a great long-term investment, that brought countless memories to our family."

"I had A&M Fence come and replace the wood on a fence I had installed only 3 years ago. Rule #1 *never* have a landscaping company install a fence. The old fence was weather beaten, falling apart and the metal rusting; it looked 10 years old! A&M Fence replaced the boards with new cedar, replaced and secured the bolts, removed the rust and installed decorative spikes. The completed job vastly exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with the fence. I had to wait a few weeks for the install since they are busy, but they are worth the wait. I'm going to have them do other fence work and I've recommended them to my neighbor. They are professional and take pride in their work."

FAQs for aluminum or steel fence installation projects in Elgin, IL

A wood fence costs an average of $2,700 upfront while an aluminum fence costs about $4,610, making wood the less expensive option initially. That said, wood fencing demands regular upkeep to safeguard against bending, warping, rot, and pest damage, which increases long-term expenses significantly. Aluminum holds up with minimal upkeep, so it often balances out—or even beats—wood over the years.

The required fencing is determined by measuring your property’s perimeter and accounting for any obstructions or openings such as decks, driveways, and gates. Measure the overall border length and then subtract areas that do not require fencing. While you can map it out with a tape measure and some graph paper, a fencing pro can take precise measurements and confirm you’re ordering the right amount of material before installation begins.

Most metal fences last 20 to 50 years. The exact life span depends on the metal’s quality, how well the fence is installed, and how often you maintain it. Opting for premium materials and a skilled installer helps the fence shrug off weather and stay sturdy with only basic upkeep.

Electric fence repairs average about $200, but you could spend anywhere from $100 to $400. Your final bill hinges on how much damage there is, how complex the fence design is, and local labor rates. Most repairs cover both materials and labor to get the fence working—and safe—again.
