Accurate Fence

Accurate Fence is a small fencing crew out of East Falmouth that Cape homeowners call for a new vinyl, wood, or chain-link fence — plus the occasional pergola or outdoor shower enclosure built alongside it. The company says it has been doing this on the Cape for 20 years, covering Falmouth, Mashpee, Bourne, Sandwich and Barnstable. Chris — the name that shows up in nearly every review, good and bad — runs the crew and does the quoting himself. Pricing comes up again and again: a 2021 review describes an $18,000 quote elsewhere for a comparable cedar fence, then paying Accurate Fence around $5,100 for it; a 2023 review says the company came in lowest of four competing quotes and still kept its scheduled install date. Reviewers from 2022 through 2025 describe crews that showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and built fences — 185 feet of cedar rail fencing, a reinforced vinyl double-gate, a matched wood-picket-and-split-rail combo — that held up. There's a pattern worth knowing about on the other side of that same timeline. A cluster of one-star reviews spread from mid-2023 through late 2025 describes the same shape of problem: the install goes fine, then something needs a fix — a warped gate board, a fence panel started in the wrong spot, a granite slab cracked while anchoring a railing — and the calls and texts stop getting answered. One customer says months passed after Chris promised to replace a cracked granite slab; another says he lost employees mid-project and never called back to reschedule. A separate 2022 review, otherwise satisfied with the finished fence, flagged a crew member using marijuana on the job as unprofessional. Google shows the company at 4.3 stars from 56 total ratings, and most of what's written backs that up — reviewers name Chris directly, describe specific fence types and footage, and several mention hiring the company again for a second property. But the follow-through complaints aren't a one-off: they recur across several years and several different customers. Worth asking before booking: what the plan is if something needs adjusting after the crew leaves, and getting a firm install window in writing given a couple of reports of slipped schedules. For a straightforward vinyl, wood, or chain-link fence job on the Cape with competitive pricing on the table, Accurate Fence has a real track record behind it — just don't assume a callback if something needs a second visit.
