Verified record
Shannon Fence Company is a one-man-plus-crew operation Brian Shannon has run out of Billerica since 1992, installing and repairing vinyl, cedar, ornamental aluminum and chain-link fencing, gates, arbors, pool fencing and pet containment across a wide swath of eastern Massachusetts. The written record — 16 reviews spanning 2015 through 2025 — keeps returning to the same names and the same story: Brian shows up, quotes fast, and the crew gets a fence installed in a day or less. One 2025 review described a quote, permitting and Dig Safe handled inside two weeks, with the fence itself up in under six hours; another customer, back for a second fence in 20 years, called the pricing and service unbeatable. A 2024 review described Brian personally fixing a gate post seven years after the original install. The one real complaint, from October 2024, is a serious one: a customer said the crew damaged an irrigation system during installation, didn't disclose it, and — after the irrigation company found and fixed the damage on the spot — Brian reportedly argued they should have flagged it themselves before begrudgingly promising $100 that was never paid, on a customer who'd spent $25,000 across two Shannon Fence jobs. Before signing on, it's worth asking directly how they handle accidental property damage during installation — the rest of the record is strong, but that one account is worth a straight answer.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Shannon Fence Company. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

Brian and his team are awesome! 5ft black metal link fence looks amazing. Quick, efficient, friendly, and solid work. Absolutely would recommend them to anyone looking for fence work!
Brian came by to check out our fence needs, listened to our requests, and provided us with a competitive quote that made sense to us. Less than 2 weeks later, after permitting and Dig Safe were handled by them, our fence was installed in less than 6 hours start to finish. It looks great. They were communicative and flexible throughout the install, and I'd have no hesitation to recommend them to a friend.
Recently, I had a fence installed by Shannon Fence and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience from the initial consultation to the final installation. The team was professional knowledgeable, incredibly responsive. They took their time to understand exactly what I wanted and provided helpful recommendations to ensure the final result was both functional and visually appealing. It’s clear they take pride in their work and it shows I highly recommend Shannon Fence
Work was done quickly, professionally and at a great price.
Brian and his crew were great. They installed our beautiful fence, and have been available to tweak the gates as needed. Very receptive and great family business.
