Why Homeowners Pick Us
Why Homeowners and Businesses Across New Jersey Choose Fred's Fence
For more than 15 years, Fred's Fence has installed over 3,000 fences across Monmouth and Middlesex Counties — and we've done it the same way the entire time. Family-owned, owner-operated, and obsessed with getting every job right the first time. When you call Fred's Fence, you're talking to the people who'll be on your property installing your fence. No sales reps, no subcontractors, no surprises.
Built on 15 Years of Hands-On Experience
Fred's Fence was founded in 2017, but our story started long before that. Al got his start in fencing right out of high school, working on crews and learning the trade from the ground up. Over the years he took on more responsibility, eventually subcontracting jobs and running installations independently — until the timing was right to start something of his own.
Today Fred's Fence is run by Al and his wife Casandra, with a crew that has installed more than 3,000 fences across New Jersey. That's a lot of cedar, vinyl, aluminum, chain link, and pool code fencing — and a lot of homeowners who've recommended us to their neighbors.
Experience matters in fencing. Knowing how soil drains in different parts of the county, how local code inspectors look at pool fence installations, what materials hold up best in coastal conditions, when to push back on a design that won't last — these are things you only learn by doing the work. We've done the work.

A Warranty That Stands Behind the Work
Fred's Fence offers one of the most straightforward warranties in the industry:
Lifetime Material Warranty
- Vinyl
- PVC
- Aluminum
- Composite
- Chain Link
- Metal
5-Year Labor Warranty
- Covers installation workmanship
- Excludes damage from natural disasters
Wood fencing carries the labor warranty — wood is a natural material that weathers over time, so the lifetime material warranty doesn't apply.
We back what we build. If something is wrong with the installation, we come back and fix it.
You Work Directly With the Owners
This is the part most homeowners don't realize until they've been through it: most fence companies use sales reps for the quote and subcontractors for the installation. The person who measured your yard isn't the person building your fence, and the person building your fence has never spoken to the person you signed a contract with.
"That's not how Fred's Fence works."
When you call us, you talk to Al or Casandra. When we come out for the free estimate, it's the people who'll be on your install. When questions come up mid-project — and they always do — you're not waiting on hold or being passed between offices. You're talking directly to the people doing the work.
For a project that's going to be on your property for 20+ years, that matters.
Quality Materials From One Trusted Supplier
Every Fred's Fence installation uses materials sourced through American Fence Systems in South Plainfield, New Jersey. They're a long-standing regional fencing distributor, and we've worked with them for years because their consistency and quality control are reliable. Using one trusted supplier means you get the same materials, the same hardware, and the same standards on every job — whether you're installing 50 feet of picket fencing or 300 feet of pool code fence.
