"My experience with Frankie and his team was beyond excellent. When I contacted him through Angi he got back to me within minutes. We met the next day, went over everything I wanted and within several days I had a beautiful well constructed fence. Frankie kept in contact with me through the entire process. My neighbors liked my fence so much they hired him to put a fence for them! Not only did they build a quality fence but cleaned up behind themselves. I cannot say enough good things about this company and would use them again without hesitation"

"I'll start this review by saying that to me, the "end result" is what counts most.  And Neale and his company produced exactly the custom look security fence I had envisioned.  This was a bit of an unusual request, because even though many people have iron bars welded over their A/C units for security, I needed two large, expensive (side by side) heat pumps protected.  Also, I felt a "security fence" would look better than just metal bars.  So here was my experience: After 1st calling and getting leaving a message with an assistant, it did take a few days but Neale called me back to set up an appointment to give an estimate.  He arrived right on time, took a look at the situation, and after a few minutes of brainstorming we were on exactly the same page in terms of design - and I liked how he sketched it out.  I also felt his quote was very reasonable (his was the 3rd estimate I had gotten).  And I don't know, there was just something about Neale, I could tell he had a *passion* for security fencing and "keeping crooks out" so to speak.  After getting my estimate in writing via email later that day, I put down my (1/3) deposit.  About a week later, after fabricating much of the fence in his shop, Neale and his team arrived and got to work fast.  I took them 2 days total, which was fine (day #1 they installed the fence posts and the concrete needed to set overnight).  Day# was most of the assembly,  welding and the paint job. Now, about 2 weeks later, I am extremely happy with the final result.  Very secure, and very sharp looking!  Even the gloss black paint job is very nice.  My neighbors have made several admiring comments over the past week also.  The only thing I could fault, if anything, would be if speed - is critical too you.Baltimore Wrought does seem like a busy company so don't be surprised if there is a week or so delay / backlog.  Also, they do prefer cash payment vs credit card.  (I did my deposit on credit card and paid the final 2/3 cash).  But  these minimal factors were not a big deal for me, because *high quality* work and to a lesser extent, total price, were all I really cared about - and these guys definitely delivered on both!

"We are having a fence put up along our property lines and needed several shrubs and small trees cleared out. I called Freestate on Friday, the 25th and was able to set up an estimate for the following Sunday morning. Ben showed up on time, gave an estimate and confirmed they would be able to get me on the schedule for that week.
He promised to follow up with me right away to confirm the details. I received a voicemail later in the day confirming that we were on the schedule for the following day! We had a couple emails back and forth and received extremely fast responses each time.
As promised, the crew came out on Monday and removed everything. They did a great job clearing everything out without leaving any debris. The stumps were also ground out and my lot looks like there were never any shrubs/ trees planted in that location.
We had a great experience from the first phone call through the completion of the job and would recommend them to anyone needing tree work.

"s was my first job.  I understand how things will work in  the future.  The serviceman put in the fence post with quick dry cement, but he was not able to install the hardware to the new post to hang the fences.  Although I have had no fence for 2 weeks it was no one's fault. I am using the same company to finish the job.

"This went very well from start to finish. I called the office first to make sure my project was something Kargman's could do; they confirmed their staff could install the fence for me and advised me how to purchase the Big Deal. Within 24 hours of making the purchase online, I received an email asking me to call to set up a time for the work to be done. I spoke with Erin, who was friendly and professional, reiterated what work I wanted done and chose a date. I offered that I was fine with two people for four hours because it might be a two person job. I then went to Lowe's and bought four 6 x 8 foot sections of wooden fence so everything would be ready to go on the day of the job. The posts in the ground were still good, so there would not have to be any hole digging.
The morning of the scheduled date (which was only one week after I purchased the deal--so there was no waiting weeks to try to get the job scheduled), Bill and Alex arrived at just before 8:00 am to begin. Not only were they prompt, they were friendly, worked well as a team and showed a real interest in my house. It took them all of two hours to complete the task and then fix my broken doorbell (at the last minute when I was thinking of something else for them to do). Alex told me he did not have space in his truck bed to take away all the debris, but he called the office to find a resolution. I was told that another worker, Fabian (?) would be at my house within 30 minutes to collect everything and haul it away. Bill and Alex left for another job, and shortly thereafter, Fabian and another gentleman showed up to collect and remove all the waste. They, too, were both friendly, quick, and hard working!
Because my job only used four hours of labor, instead of the eight hours that I paid for, I called the office to see if I could keep those hours as a credit for the next time I needed work done. I don't need anything else done right now, but considering that my house is about 130 years old and finding a reliable handyman has been a challenge in the past, I will, without a doubt, use Kargman's again...and, I will get my next four hours of work at no additional charge!"

FAQs for barbed wire fence installation projects in Essex, MD

Barbed wire is a type of fencing made from steel wire with sharp edges or points spaced along the strands. It's designed to prevent unauthorized entry or contain livestock by acting as a physical deterrent. Barbed wire fences are often seen in agricultural settings or high-security areas because they're effective, durable, and require little maintenance.

You can expect to pay between $3 and $6 per linear foot for a barbed wire fence, including installation. The exact price depends on factors like material quality, number of strands, wire thickness, and labor costs. If you have a larger project, bulk purchasing and hiring a professional might offer cost savings.

The number of strands you need depends on the fence's purpose and the level of security you want. For a standard livestock fence, you might use three to five strands. For higher-security needs, you may require more strands to meet your needs. Consider your specific requirements and talk to your fence installation pro to determine the appropriate number.

Barbed wire fencing regulations vary by location. In many residential areas, the use of barbed wire is restricted or prohibited due to safety concerns. Before installing a barbed wire fence, work with your barbed wire fence installation pro to check local zoning laws and homeowner association rules to ensure compliance with regulations.

The lifespan of a barbed wire fence depends on the quality of materials and environmental conditions. Fences made with high-quality, galvanized wire and proper coatings can last between 20 and 30 years. Regular maintenance and inspections can extend the fence's longevity by addressing issues like rust or damaged strands promptly.
