Twenty years of doing this. None of the overhead.
Tony Sandoval has spent more than 20 years on the front lines of fencing in Northern Virginia, including years as a superintendent running crews for the large companies you are probably also getting quotes from. Same standards, same materials, same way of building it — without a sales floor, a call volume target, or a district manager between you and the person doing the work. That is the thing the big outfits genuinely cannot offer: a company that earns your business every day.
Here is what we noticed reading through the reviews of every fence company around Gainesville, Haymarket, and Manassas. The one and two star reviews are almost never about the fence itself. They are about a job nobody put real care into, and a homeowner who could not get a clear answer about what was happening or when. The craftsmanship in this market is mostly fine. The attention is not.
These six promises are how we close that gap, every single job.
Every request, every time. If we somehow miss you, call the number on this page and you will get the owner, not a queue.
Why it matters: Read the one and two star reviews of fence companies around here and they are almost never about the fence. They are about a homeowner who could not get a straight answer out of anybody. Clear communication is the cheapest thing in this business to get right and the thing most often got wrong.
Tony measures your project personally, in your yard, with you standing there. Not a salesperson working from a tablet in the driveway.
Why it matters: The highest-praise review in this market was a homeowner who said that out of five companies who came to quote, only one actually walked into the yard. That is a shockingly low bar, and it is the whole job.
You get your price in writing before anything is booked: the total for the job, the per-linear-foot number where that helps you compare, and separate quotes if you want to supply your own material. No obligation attached to any of it.
Why it matters: Fence pricing is opaque, and most homeowners are collecting three to five quotes with no way to tell what is actually different between them. A number you can hold next to another number is worth more than a number with a signature line under it.
Every job gets a utility locate ticket filed before we put a shovel in the ground — that one is never optional. If your project also needs a county permit or homeowners association approval, we prepare the drawings and specifications and submit them for you.
Why it matters: Digging without a locate is how somebody hits a gas line. And neighborhoods across Gainesville, Haymarket, Bristow, and Aldie govern fence height, material, color, and which way the finished side faces. Getting it wrong means tearing it out.
Before we start, we walk the line together so you know exactly where the fence is going and what it will look like. When the last panel is up, we walk it again. Anything you are not happy with gets fixed while we are still standing there.
Why it matters: The complaint underneath almost every bad fence experience is that nobody put real care into the job. Two walkthroughs, with you, is how care stops being a word on a website.
If your fence needs three posts reset instead of a full replacement, that is what we will quote. If a repair buys you ten more years, we will say so in writing.
Why it matters: It costs us a bigger invoice today and earns the referral that actually builds a business. We would rather be the company your neighbor recommends.
You are not taking a chance on someone learning the trade. You are hiring the person the big companies used to put in charge of your job.
