Stuck in a home improvement rut? Well, inspiration can strike anywhere, even—wait for it—your neighbor’s yard.
That’s right, fences! They’re pretty important since they keep your precious pups in and rogue squirrels out.
So, the tenacious researcher in me decided to dig in. I chatted with fence-wielding friends, trolled review sites like a champ, and even peeked over a few fences to see the quality firsthand (hey, gotta do what you gotta do for journalism).
The result is this highly curated list of the top fencing repair and installation companies in Toronto. From picket perfection to privacy havens, these companies will have your yard looking ship-shape in no time!
How much does it cost to install a fence in Toronto?
In Toronto, the cost of installing a fence is typically based on per linear foot of fencing material. Expect to pay $110-$150 per linear foot for a basic wood fence, with vinyl around $85-$95. Chain link tends to be the most affordable at $65-$85.
Fence installation costs depend on size, material, and complexity.
How We Chose the Best Fence Companies in Toronto
1. Art Metal Workshop

For over 20 years, Etobicoke’s Art Metal Workshop has specialized in iron, steel, and metal fences.
First, they offer a user-friendly online design tool. Just whip out a satellite view of your property, pick your fence style and materials, and voila—instant fence estimate!
We also think prices are fair, with wrought iron fences starting around $125 per linear foot, while privacy iron fences cost a bit more at $215 per foot. They even offer privacy screens to add a decorative touch and keep prying eyes out.
Art Metal throws in a lifetime warranty and free estimates, which is always a plus. They’ve even been featured on HGTV’s Income Property and Holmes Makes it Right, so they must be doing something right!
But we heard about a snag: some folks have reported no-shows for appointments. This is not ideal if you’re waiting around for a fence consultation.
Provided fast, creative solutions for the fence we needed
“It’s hard to find a fence contractor who provides the same level of service to a homeowner as to a large commercial client. Art Metal treated us like a big name client, through every aspect of field survey, cost estimate, municipal clearances, and fence installation. They provided fast, creative solutions for the fence we needed, using material we had on hand. The final product looked great, and we’ll absolutely use Art Metal again for other projects. Thanks again to Iryna, Gabriel, Natalia, and everyone else. 100% A+”

Very helpful and responsive from the onset
“Iryna and her team were very helpful and responsive from the onset and answered all of my needs in making a decision for a perimeter fence and gate. All the workers were professional and showed up when they said they would. I waited a few months to write this review in order to ensure that everything was in working order. Thank you Iryna and the Art-Metal team.”

2. Citywide Post Hole Digging

Citywide Post Hole Digging has been in the landscaping biz for over 21 years, and in 2004, they expanded to include fence and deck building.
They can handle the entire process, from digging the holes in various sizes—with cement included—to building your fence or deck. They’re also fully insured and even offer a variety of materials (wood, aluminum, galvanized) to suit your style and budget.
Speaking of budget, we heard that they cater to all wallets, and offer free consultations and quotes.
Privacy fence, chain link for security, Citywide does it all; they even have a custom fence layout design option! Additionally, they build decks and pergolas, so you can create a truly multifunctional outdoor space.
There’s actually one caveat—some customers have reported uneven fence posts. So, if you’re a perfectionist who craves laser-straight fences, you might want to check each post before they leave.
Amazing group to work with!
“Amazing group to work with! Have used them for multiple jobs and have always had a great experience! Jordan and his crew show up on time and have always done a great job while keeping it clean. Sefi is always there to take your calls and help with whatever questions I had. Would definitely recommend city wide postal if you want the job done right!”

3. DeckCrew.ca

DeckCrew.ca boasts a shiny reputation as a top Toronto deck builder, and they also offer fencing services.
They’re self-proclaimed masters of anything wooden. They also install all sorts of materials, from classic timber to fancy IPE and composite options.
Their expertise extends beyond decks—they build fences, gates, sheds, carports, and even Finnish saunas! In short, they can turn your backyard into a full-on wooden wonderland.
Their fencing process seems straightforward, broken down into clear steps. They’ll help you choose a design, navigate permits, and pick the perfect fence material for your needs.
Installation follows a logical flow, from digging posts to attaching panels and gates. They even offer optional staining and sealing to protect your fence from Toronto’s temperamental weather.
While it all sounds pretty comprehensive, there’s a splinter in the plan—some customers report their workers as being flaky and unresponsive.
Deck Crew is truly a premium fence builder
“Deck Crew is truly a premium fence builder. We greatly appreciated the entire experience of our work with Alex Kolar and his team. Alex is totally on-line for planning and construction management convenience. He was punctual for all site visits and provided excellent design input and a highly professional quotation. Alex attended on site as scheduled with a hard working crew of four skilled carpenters including himself who completed full work days to complete the project. Deck Crew is very knowledgeable of materials alternatives and is highly experienced with the construction of decks and fences. All fence materials were of high quality. In particular, we had a curved deck which was not an obvious build but was very well executed with composite materials. The project was superior to the structures being replaced, both from a structural and aesthetic perspective. The extra care and attention to all aspects of our fence construction and resulting product were most satisfying and we highly recommend Deck Crew.”

The fences are absolutely perfect
“Alex and his crew are top-notch. They are very professional and disciplined. They were on site at 8:00 AM every day and are very organized. The fences are absolutely perfect. This was a job for fences of five adjacent neighbours and the four-person team carried out the work efficiently and flawlessly. They did a fantastic job! So refreshing compared to the many contractors we hired in the past.”

4. Mr. Fencee

Mr. Fencee, established in 2017, positions itself as your one-stop shop for all things outdoor solutions, with a focus on fencing.
In fact, they offer classic wood fences for a natural look, sleek vinyl for modern vibes, sturdy metal for security, and budget-friendly chain links for larger areas. They even tackle commercial fencing needs!
For those feeling indecisive, Mr. Fencee offers free consultations and quotes, so you can chat about your vision and get a price estimate. Once you’re happy, they’ll handle the entire project, from installation to a final inspection for your peace of mind.
In addition to fencing, they do decks, post-hole digging, and concrete work, potentially making them a convenient all-in-one option.
While they seem to be on the up and up, we did hear reports about their long turnaround times—probably not good if you’re looking for a quick fix for your backyard.
Wow … a client-centric contractor!
“Wow … a client-centric contractor! We had a stress-free experience from initial consultation and quote right through to the final inspection and wrap-up. Special thanks to Anna, Dimitri and your super-friendly and professional install crew. Oh yeah, … and thank you for a great looking fence!”
Chris Pereira, Google Review
Left the property completely clean and tidy

5. Captain Handy

Since 2010, Captain Handy has been a trusted name in the Toronto area, offering a full range of services, including fencing. They also specialize in various outdoor projects, including pools, decks, patios, and interlock installations.
One area they particularly emphasize is Trex composite fencing—a fancy alternative to wood or vinyl that promises beauty, privacy, and low maintenance.
Note, however, that Captain Handy isn’t exactly known for bargain prices. While they offer a best-price guarantee, some customers still report them being on the pricier side.
However, there are some perks to justify the cost! They boast a four-step process that includes a free consultation and estimate, a site inspection to avoid surprises, a free design with high-quality materials, and a project manager who oversees the installation.
As a bonus, they throw in a 5-year warranty.
Loved the quality of work, timing, and communication
“We worked with Captain Handy on multiple projects throughout the last two years and they always did a wonderful job! The did both front and backyard interlock patio for us, and then also fixed our fence and deck. We loved the quality of work done as well as the timing and communication. This company has great employees, very professional, respective and friendly, which we greatly appreciate in our age! Thank you Captain Handy!!”
