How do I choose a good fence and deck contractor?

Compare at least three written, itemized quotes rather than defaulting to the cheapest. YardQuote ranks 141 fence and deck contractors at a median 4.84★ Google rating and a median of 30 reviews each, so start with the shortlist above, then confirm insurance and recent local references before you sign.

When is the best time to book fencing and decking?

The fencing and decking season runs Apr–Nov. Reputable companies book several weeks ahead in peak months, so request quotes early; shoulder-season bookings often win better pricing.

Do I need a permit, and is sales tax included in fencing and decking quotes?

Most posted prices exclude tax, and the rate depends on the province. Sales tax varies by province — Ontario adds 13% HST, Alberta and BC add 5% GST. Permit needs depend on scope and municipality: routine work rarely needs one, but driveway widening, boulevard work and retaining walls over 1 metre generally require municipal approval a reputable contractor handles. Open your city above for the local rate and rules.

Can companies pay to rank higher on YardQuote?

No. Rankings come from a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating plus verification boosts for a website, phone and photos, never payment. Across our dataset, 77% of rated fence and deck contractors clear 4.8★, so small ranking gaps are meaningful. Full details are on our methodology page.

How does YardQuote rank fence and deck contractors?

Rankings can't be bought. YardQuote scores each company with a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating, which weighs review volume so a 5.0 on three reviews does not outrank a 4.8 on three hundred. We then add small verification boosts for an active website, a listed phone number and real project photos. Across our dataset, 77% of rated fence and deck contractors clear 4.8★, so ranking gaps are meaningful. Positions update as new review data lands. Read our full methodology.

Questions to ask your contractor

Can you show me WSIB clearance and $2M+ liability insurance?
What's the payment schedule — how much is the deposit?
Which parts are subcontracted, and who supervises on-site?
What does the itemized quote include for disposal and grading? Typical line items and costs
What plant warranty do you offer through the first winter?
