A six-foot vinyl privacy fence across the back of a property and half-way down one side, put in during extremely hot weather: that is how a 2016 customer described hiring Markos Excavating Services. HomeAdvisor and Angi each show 4.6 stars from 28 ratings. A 2015 customer who first planned a wood fence went with vinyl and said the installers were professional and took their time. A 2018 BuildZoom reviewer said they did vinyl fencing and showed up and finished when they said they would. A 2016 reviewer wrote that Markos and his crew did a nice job grading a back yard, at a fair price. In a 2016 review, a customer said Mister Markos responded quickly and the snow was removed in timely fashion. A 2017 customer said the job was supposed to take 4 days and it did. A 2017 reviewer said the work was completed on time and under the quote. A 2017 customer said he and his crew worked in heavy rain and Mr. Marks checked on his crew daily. A 2021 customer said the project specs changed multiple times and he was flexible and offered advice. Scheduling is the main thing to ask about. A 2015 customer said it was difficult to schedule the work and the contractor postponed at the last minute several times, though once he got there he completed the job in a professional manner. A 2016 reviewer warned against hiring this contractor for a project that has to be done quickly, writing that he did not do full days or weeks. A 2015 customer wanted more communication about issues while the fence went up, and said a new post had to be adjusted about an inch from what was originally envisioned because of concrete around the neighbor's post.
Great experience. The project specs changed multiple times along the way and he way very flexible and offered some great advice. Can't wait to get him back for phase II.

He was great to work with! They did an awesome job on my vinyl fencing, showed up when they said they would and finished when they said they would. He answered all my questions and always returned my calls. I would highly recommend them for your fencing needs. So appreciative of the great work they did!! Thanks again! Melissa
I would highly recommend Frank and his crew. He went out of his way to make sure the work was done well. You couldn’t ask for a better person to work with.

Typical Greater Providence range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Markos Excavating Services. 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
$3,800 – $7,400
Typical fencing project around $5,600
