A yard full of mature trees and shifting grade is where a fence line goes wrong, and that is the job one customer described in May 2025: the crew worked around the trees, dealt with the elevation changes across the yard, and got the line right. A 2023 customer said much the same about an uneven yard — the fence came out aligned, and it went up in a short stretch of days. Dura/Built Fence Co. works out of Rowley and builds for homeowners, businesses and towns across the North Shore. The company says it has been at it more than 30 years and is owner-operated by Ed White, and lists vinyl, chain link, wood and ornamental iron among what it installs. On the job, customers deal with Dan and Jonathan. A homeowner writing in June 2025 said they collected quotes from four local fence companies and went with Dura/Built after Dan spent extra time on the first visit making recommendations. In October 2025 another said the two of them checked in throughout the work and the vinyl fence came out better than they had pictured. That November an old wood fence came out and black chain link went in, with a run for the dog. It is not only new installs either: in April a customer had Jonathan come by to repair a fence. The written history is short — ten reviews between 2023 and 2026, all five stars, behind a 5-star Google average across ten ratings. The same beats keep coming up: recommendations made on site rather than over the phone, a price people called reasonable, and someone checking in while the crew is in the yard. For a straightforward residential fence on the North Shore, this is a small, hands-on outfit where the person quoting the job is the one standing in your yard. Two things to settle on the first call: the company's own site names Ed White as the owner while the reviews are about Dan and Jonathan, so ask who will run your job — and since they also build for commercial and municipal customers, pin down your install dates before you put anything down.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Dura/Built Fence Co.. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

Dan and his team did a great job replacing my old wooden fence with black chain link. Excellent customer service, reasonably priced, and my dog loves his new run!
Dan and Jonathan are incredibly professional and detail oriented; our vinyl fence looks better than we could have imagined. They provided thoughtful recommendations and valuable expertise for a great price. We really appreciated that they checked in with us throughout the process to ensure we were happy with the installation. Can’t recommend them enough!
Dan and Jonathan were amazing! We received quotes from 4 local fence companies and are so glad that we chose Durabuilt. From the initial visit, Dan spent extra time with us and made recommendations using his expertise, which gave us the confidence to move forward. During installation, they were meticulous and took into account all angles so that the fence stayed level, as well as checked in with us throughout installation to ensure we were aligned. We are so happy with the finished product and would recommend Durabuilt to anyone looking to have a fence installed!
