- Customer service — 2024 reviewer criticized support
Advanced Fence Co. is a Canton fencing company that designs and installs residential and commercial fences in wood, vinyl, ornamental, and chain-link styles. The company says it is family-owned and operated, and also offers related outdoor structures and features. The written customer history is small and split. In a 2021 Google review, a homeowner praised the quality of the work and materials after Jim replaced a fallen section of a 40-year-old three-pole split-rail cedar fence, describing the new fence as a faithful replacement. In a 2024 Google review, another homeowner said a gate broke within a year and called out poor craftsmanship and customer service. That gate complaint is the key question to settle before booking: ask how the gate hardware and installation will be handled, and what workmanship coverage applies if it fails. The public rating shown by Google is 2.8 from five ratings, while the two written reviews are sharply divided, so a site visit and a clear written warranty would be sensible next steps.

They put up a fence at our house and the gate to it broke within a year. Poor craftsmanship and customer service.

Excellent quality of work, excellent quality of materials, and excellent attitude!!! One section of my 40-year old 3-pole split rail cedar fence just fell over this summer and I knew the entire thing was going to need replacement. The cedar fence Jim installed is a faithful replica of the original and is exactly what I wanted. But Jim’s ability to repair my pressure-treated stockade fence, which was significantly damaged by hurricane winds, demonstrates his skillful craftsmanship. If I didn’t know which part of the fence had been literally blown apart, I wouldn’t be able to pick out the repaired section. Jim also strengthened and stabilized the remaining 5 sections. His work is so remarkable that I don’t think I’ll have to worry about either fence for another 50 years! Thanks so much, Jim!!!

What does a fence cost in Greater Boston?
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Advanced Fence Co. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Walk the line and pace it off — a pace is about 3 feet.
Estimated range
$4,050 – $7,950
Typical fencing project around $6,000
