Boston Fence & Vinyl has 163 Google ratings averaging 4.7, and many reviewers are back for a second or third job. The Beverly company says it is family-owned, has built wood, vinyl, aluminum and steel fences since 1989, and uses its own crews rather than subcontractors. It is BBB accredited with an A+. Nick, the salesman, is the name that comes up most. A February 2025 reviewer said he worked through a septic system and an easement on the neighbor's property, and that the crew added workers to get the fence usable before Thanksgiving so the dogs could use the yard. A March 2025 customer on a slope said the installers proposed a symmetrical stepped design on site, and a March 2026 reviewer said the company quoted the next day and repaired their fence and gate the following week. Several customers describe the company coming back for maintenance and repairs years later. There are pointed complaints. In a November 2025 review, a customer said the contract was written for a fence they had not asked for, that the salesman was condescending when they raised it, and that the replacement did not line up with the existing fence. In May 2022, one reviewer described six weeks of unanswered calls on a small repair and gate job, and another said eight pressure-treated posts rotted out barely two years after installation. A May 2024 commenter on r/SalemMA called their experience horrible, while other r/SalemMA commenters recommended the company.
“Got quotes from Boston, JC, and James Patrick. Driving around I’ve seen a lot of Boston, reliable, patriot and James Patrick. James’s consistently look the best by far to me, patriot and Boston seem comparable, reliable is pretty consistently the worst look to me. James’s quote was the most expensive by quite a bit. Boston’s quote was reasonable, but JC beat it. They also used pounded posts instead of digging (they drive a metal post about 6-8 feet into the ground and then fit the vinyl post over it), which should be much sturdier and less susceptible to frost heave. It was also way faster. Went with them and they were great. Highly recommend.”
“We’ve used Boston Fence for three different projects on our property and they’re great to work with, creative around challenges, and have high quality work.”
“Boston Fence in Beverly does good work, but I am under the impression that they aren’t cheap 20’ including a gate is two panels and four posts; you may want to entertain DIY options because that’s $500 in materials compared to at least $2,500 to get them out there. I inherited an older fence and it took some learning but I’m a couple dozen panels and posts in (the fence of Theseus) and it’s not that hard/the end result is good quality. Need some tools and definitely two people”
“I had a great experience with Boston Fence. I had a few concerns due to some particulars of my yard and they were like “yeah yeah we know what we’re doing it’ll be fine” which made me a little nervous on a ~$10k project but they did a phenomenal job. Spent extra time on all the details so it looks great and is super sturdy (and 100% dog escape proof).”
