This company has been amazing from start to finish! The owner was responsive, almost immediately after I submitted the service request. His team showed up early and got right to work. They fixed my fence (all the top rails had come loose) and they removed and replaced my old cracked mailbox post. They cleaned up and left my property looking much better than before.

Reviews
Ironclad put up a wooden fence for me with 2 gates as requested. They arrived early morning and left when the job was complete. The fence looks great. Site was cleaned up when they left.
I would give them a five out of five if I could, but it only lets me pick three. The quality of work was excellent. The price was very reasonable. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable, and they did everything that they said they would do. They were also very fast and very accommodating. I would not hesitate to call them again for any project that I need done. They were excellent in all areas!!
Excellent communication before, during, and after. They offered the best price and scheduling. Everything finished in one day. Before and after pics shown.
I wish I could choose all five: work quality value, professionalism, punctuality, and responsiveness. Our new fence looks beautiful. They did a great job. I recommend this company highly. The images are before and after.
⭐ Fence Installation – Product & Service Review (Negative Experience) I recently hired this company for a fence installation, and unfortunately the experience was extremely disappointing from start to finish. What should have been a straightforward project turned into a long list of mistakes, poor workmanship, and unprofessional behavior. 🛠️ Product & Installation Quality Incorrect post placement — The crew cemented plastic brackets into the holes where the posts were supposed to go, then cemented flags where the markers were. The entire line of posts was installed in the wrong place, leaving cement visibly sticking up above the ground. Missing and damaged components — A post cap was missing, a cut panel was left in my yard, and the center brace for the 8‑ft gate was installed higher than the lock and latch. Wrong materials — I was told I was receiving a specific fence, but the installer blamed the distributor for sending something “better.” After researching, I learned the material installed was actually cheaper than what I paid for. 🚫 Service & Professionalism Mess left behind — Brackets, cigarettes, and debris were left scattered throughout my yard. Gates installed incorrectly — The gates were placed in locations different from what we agreed on over the phone. They were also installed higher than the rest of the fence, making the entire line look uneven and unprofessional. Safety and security issues — A key was left on my porch without any explanation. One lock had a broken key lodged inside, and the crew was prepared to leave it that way. They originally planned to give me only one key out of a set of four until I questioned why the lock wasn’t working. Unresolved issues — I asked the installer to return and fix the misaligned middle bracket on the lock. He said he would come back the following week, but I haven’t heard from him since. 🐾 Functionality Issues Gap large enough for a pet to escape — There is a gap between the house and the start of the fence big enough for my dog to get through, which defeats the purpose of installing the fence in the first place. ❌ Overall Experience This installation was not what I was promised, not what I paid for, and not acceptable by any professional standard. The combination of incorrect materials, poor workmanship, lack of communication, and failure to follow through makes this company one I cannot recommend under any circumstances. 100% do not recommend.
Dave and his 2 Guys(specially his guys)did a amazing job. They were very punctual and professional. They arrived at 7 this morning and was finished by lunchtime. The job was completed quick and looks nice. We are so grateful to have found his company. We look forward to hiring him for our next fencing project.
I wouldn’t recommend this company. They replaced about 30 linear feet of fencing for me, and this is what I ended up with - a hurried job with shoddy results. From nails dangerously poking through, to split and frayed 4x4’s, to warped uneven pickets and tiny slivers of pickets due to lack of forethought, this contractor doesn’t seem to care about the quality of his work. Not to mention that communication was poor- he didn’t show up twice: once for the initial work, and the second time to fix the shoddy job. I would not recommend.
"David and his crew provided outstanding service. We needed a new fence fast, and they delivered a finished, professional product in one single day! It is rare to find a team this hard-working and skilled. The fence is top-notch, and the price was fair. Thank you, David!"
Did a great job on my fence removed old fence and put up new fence, started at 8am and was done by 3:30..I highly recommend them for your next fence
I had been trying to get someone to take on my challenging fence repair for awhile with no luck, then David and his team showed up! He knew exactly what it needed to be fixed correctly and they rebuilt my gate perfectly! Not only is the quality of work is superb, it's fixed correctly, and at a phenomenal price! They're coming back to do my deck steps next. I have no doubt I'll get the same, quick, quality work! He'll be my go to for all of my properties!
David and his crew did a great job. They were safe, clean, and professional. We love our new fence! Will definitely hire again if we ever need to.
I can't say enough good things about Ironclad fencing, my new fence is so nice looking and solid and sturdy! So easy to work with, professional and high quality service. If you are looking for a new fence I can't recommend them highly enough!
Train his employees better, don’t skip out and leave employees he’s had for three months unsupervised.If you say you can do a shadowbox fence, you should be able to. This company didn’t even space the boards in some areas. Parts are on top of each other, while others are 2 inches apart, 4 inches apart, then randomly crooked and on top of each other again with no spacing. Don’t use inferior & warped wood. Don’t squeeze more money out of you clients, after the job is done. Take some pride in your work. Resolve problems he created, instead of just not returning texts or doing anything to resolve the problem. It’s obvious the pictures that were posted on my Facebook were from the company he used to work for. Dave Vanhorn is the owner,& came off a a nice guy. Clearly he’s a better salesman than he is a fence installer.
Got my fence post replaced almost immediately! Fast work, very responsive. Thanks so much!
It's hard to find someone who is responsive and shows up when they say they will. David showed up on time and did some minor gate repair for me for a fair price.
Good job, fair price, and on time.
David was great. His estimate to replace my privacy fence was very reasonable and they showed up on time and got right to work. They checked in with me throughout the day with any questions and the end product was exactly what I wanted.
