Brockton Fence Co

A vinyl gate that blew off in high winds. A fence broken by a storm and repaired the next day. A section of a fence they had installed years earlier, taken down for a project and put back months later. Brockton Fence Co keeps showing up for those calls long after the original install is paid for. The company says it has been putting up fence since 1969, and it still runs as a family business out of Brockton. Charlie — Charles to some customers — is who people deal with: he comes out for the site visit, quotes the job, and by several accounts talks homeowners through options they had not thought of. The crews get named too. Jose worked through a 90-degree August day in 2025, then hosed the finished fence down and smoothed the ground before he left; Bruno ran a September 2025 job on his own. The range is wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminium, iron, ornamental, picket, pool and privacy fencing, with free estimates, a three-year labor warranty and lifetime manufacturer material warranties on vinyl and ornamental. Its Better Business Bureau file is accredited with an A+. Google shows 4.6 stars across 71 ratings, and a commenter in an April 2026 r/SouthShore thread described the company as family run and doing good work. Price comes up again and again. A June 2026 reviewer had already called four other fence companies before landing here. A September 2023 customer said this quote was the lowest of the many they collected, and an October 2023 customer said the price came in under what they had expected. The complaints land almost entirely before the work starts. In October 2025 a homeowner said a promised estimate never arrived after two and a half weeks and five phone calls. In December 2024 another said the company no-showed a Saturday consultation. A June 2024 customer wrote that they had paid a deposit and could not get a call back about a start date, then added that Charlie had since phoned. In May 2022, a customer said Charlie cashed a $1,300 deposit without doing the work and that they were filing a claim in court. An October 2021 reviewer who praised the field crews said the owner pushed them to cut corners. If you want a fence from a shop that still picks up the phone years later when a storm takes a panel out, several customers here describe exactly that. Get the start date and the deposit terms in writing before you pay anything, and if an estimate has not arrived by the day you were promised, call again rather than wait.
