My wife and I recently had a 6 foot wood fence installed by Armor Fence. Gary was in charge of estimating the fence cost and provided us with a package that we used to make our request to the HOA. I was prepared to give the job to a previous bidder until I reviewed everything from Gary. Not only was he at least 25% more reasonable then the other two bids, but the workmanship and cleanliness of finished job exceeded my expectations. They completed our fence in one day, not panels all individually nailed boards which included two 5' gates on 6x6 posts. I had considered installing the fence my self, but could not save enough to be competitive. In fact if I had purchased panels from Lowes or Home Depot it would have cost me as much or more for just the material. Gary was very responsive with both emails and texts. His team was bilingual and they did not need any guidance after initially confirming a few questions. I would definitely recommend Armor for fence installation. read more

We were buying a house in manassas and during one of the inspections michael came out (even though we didn't own the house yet). He measured everything out and gave me an estimate on the spot. We also had a couple other companies come out once we bought our house but armor was lower than the competition by about $1,000. The price difference combined with several friends recommending armor fence made our decision a no brainer. They set up miss utility, came out a couple days before installation to do one last walk through (some changes had to be made due to city zoning permits), and it was all very straight forward. Installation day came, the crew of 3 or four people showed up around 7am and they got right to work. It was very impressive watching them work so efficiently. Our entire fence (300' or so of 6' privacy fence) went up in about 8 hours! The whole experience was very smooth and if we ever need a fence installed again I will definitely use Armor Fence. read more

The estimator took 3 days to call me to set up the free estimate. He did arrive on time and seemed professional. Took 1 look at the backyard and began to up sell me on a stone/brick patio. Then told me if I did the work without a permit (which is required!) it would be cheaper and could have all of the work done (replacement fence, replaced decking, new decking and porch replacement) all within 8 hours! Amazing! Never got the estimate from him or the company! Don't bother with these guys! read more

Armor Fence installed a small fence for me with a couple of gates. When dealing with Armor, the most important thing for me was that Matt McGuckin was very responsive. Matt informed me about plans, and Armor Fence executed the plans exactly as I was told. The Armor crew installed the fence nicely and quickly, and they did not leave any mess behind. I'm very happy I went with Armor. I was considering installing the fence myself, but they made it much easier at a reasonable price. read more

My husband and I recently bought a house and hired Armor Fence to install a 4 foot cedar fence and accompanying gates in our back yard. When getting a quote and scheduling the project, I mentioned that the fence was primarily for our large dog and expressed that we specifically chose 4 feet to take extra care that she would not be able to jump over it. When the men arrived to install the fence, we were home (or close by walking the dog) for the entire morning. I had been in close contact with one of Armor Fence's employees throughout the process and he was at our house overseeing our fence installation on the day of. He had my number and called several times throughout the morning for other questions. When the fence installation was finished, I noticed that both gates were sawed off at the top and scalloped, rather than straight across like the rest of the fence. This scalloped design caused the gates to be at least 8-10 inches shorter than the rest of the fence. When I asked him about the shorter gates, he informed me that the scalloped gates were an "aesthetic choice" and most people prefer that design. I was a little nervous since it looked so much shorter than the rest of the fence, but I thanked him and he left. Within 15 minutes after he left, we noticed that our dog was able to jump up and get her paws and head over the edge of the gates. The entire purpose for us spending almost $4,000 on a fence was to keep my dog safe and prevent her from escaping out of our yard. I called him back immediately and expressed my concerns with the gate being so much shorter than the fence. I thanked him for his intent at making a nice aesthetic choice, but clarified that if he would have asked us before sawing off so much of the top of the gates, we would never have consented. He agreed to come back and install new gates that were 4 feet, but I had to follow up with him several times for 2 weeks, repeatedly asking when he was going to return. He returned and replaced the gates to be 4 feet and match the rest of the fence, but then charged us $100 for his time spent coming back to fix the gates. I was really frustrated that we had to pay an additional fee for him to correct his own error. We signed a contract and agreed to pay for a 4 foot fence and accompanying gates, and instead we got a 4 foot fence and 2, 3 foot gates, but yet were charged more for Armor Fence correcting their own error. The fence looks fantastic now and I'm thankful that it was fixed, but I was definitely unhappy with the process and didn't think it was fair that we were charged extra. read more

Love our new cedar privacy fence that Armor installed! We've had so many compliments on it from our neighbors. Matt was great to deal with. Installation was done timely. Would definitely use them again. read more

Everyone was very nice unfortunately the workmanship is not. The spacing between the boards is erratic. Some boards have a 4 inch gap at the bottom. Called to have it corrected and as you can see in the photo attached they threw a patch on it by placing 2x4 on the ground in two areas. I would not recommend using them. read more

As far as price and installation the company did a great job. I initially contacted them about a year prior to my installation for estimates and they were very responsive and friendly. Just under a year later I emailed my contact back and was surprised to find that there was very poor communication with the company. There were weeks that went by with no word if I was getting a fence or not. Finally, after several weeks, they told me they were coming out, and they did. After it was all installed I walked through my yard to find quite a bit of trash left behind by the installers. I would recommend the company again but I would stay on them to keep better communication. read more

We were very pleased with our experience with Armor, they did both a Fence and Custom Stairs off our deck. Fences may be in the title of the Company but we were just as impressed with the Stairs they built. They delivered on time and as promised. I would recommend them to family and friends. read more

Very satisfied with Armor fence. From beginning to end, they did a great job. Quick response time as well. We asked for estimates for a small fence from several local and we'll known fence people in our area. Some companies didn't even return our request for an estimate, others did a week later and one in particular makes u fill out a form online of what u want, then directs u to a toll free number. Armor fence responded very quickly and sent out a real person for the estimate in a matter of a couple days. Then put the entire fence in one day. Very pleased with the quality of the fence and the workmanship. The gate they installed was even better than the one we had previously. They require 50% as a deposit and then the other 50% when the work is done (at least for our project). Would highly recommend for their workmanship and customer service. Would use again and already recommended them to my parents who also plan on using them. read more

We hired Armor Fence to install a perimeter fence around our small HOA property. We had a permit issued from the Town of Vienna. The fence was installed with the incorrect side facing the street which was against the permit. Armor never asked to see the permit which clearly specified the direction of the fence. When the town came to enforce the permit instructions, Armor refused to stand by their work and claimed it was not their responsibility to see and review the permit prior to install. The cost of the fence was approximately $8000 and this is costing us $2500 to repair. It has been a year of back and forth conversations and broken promises from Armor. We ultimately are asking another contractor to repair Armor's mistake because Armor is so unprofessional and unethical. read more

We just had a six foot high wood fence installed in our backyard. The Armor quote was among the low bids and almost $2000 cheaper than Lowes. The crew began installation around 8 am and by 5:30 they were finished. Construction appeared to be excellent quality and the crew was very professional. All construction debris was removed. read more

We requested Armor to quote our fence. Dean called within a few hours and was super great to work with. He made sure he understood our needs and was very easygoing every time we had any additional questions. His crew was extremely professional and meticulous. I couldn't be happier with Armor's service and the end product is superb. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

I had an aluminum fence installed over approximately one-third of an acre. The posts were not completely filled with dirt to sufficiently protect the newly poured grout/cement, and heavy rainstorms have occurred. I've phoned them a minimum of 5 times, with an unfulfilled promise of repair. Water is collecting in the areas which the posts were installed. Importantly, a rear gate was installed backwards, so that I cannot open or close it from my property. This also has not been installed. read more

Left 2 messages with the woman who answered the phone. Never called back.

I cannot say enough great things about Armor Fence! The entire process from inquiry to installation took only 2 weeks. Great customer service, extremely competitive pricing, quick and quality work! read more

Had a small fence put in last year to tie in an existing one. Price was OK. The workmanship was sloppy. They didn't properly tie the two fences in. What we are seeing now is the results of the poor work: gates are sagging as well as some posts. The front gate handle came off in my hands. Turns out they didn't screw it in properly and instead of using nuts to secure the lag bolts, they sawed them off. I guess you get what you pay for, but I would consider a higher priced firm before these guys. read more

Really great company - great quality of work for an affordable price. They are reliable and they stand behind their work - they came back and adjusted our gates 8 months after installation - for free. I highly recommend them. read more

Armor fence gave us an estimate on a vinyl picket fence. We wound up going with another company, but they are family owned and operated and I think it is worth your time to get an estimate from them. read more

I would never recommend this company to anyone. I did my resaerch and looked at Angies list and the BBB before I hired this company, but my experience with this company was horrible to say the least. The company never showed up to install our fence (per the contracted date) even after a deposit was made. We called the company, texted and left several emails with the owner and our sales rep and we did not receive any return calls from them. 3 days after they failed to show up for the install we did receive an email giving us an excuse of a "family emergency" that prevented anyone from the entire business (including the owner) from calling us. I understand that things come up, but this company is beyond unprofessional. We had to ask for our depoist back 3 times and only received our deposit back after I filed a complaint with the BBB. Please be aware that you would be better off finding a more professional company to work with. Armor Fence is a company that I would stay away from. read more

Absolutely impressed with these guys from start to finish. I called in for a last minute measurement and pricing for fencing my soon to be home. Matt made time in his schedule to come out and see me. Walked me through all my options, down to the nitty gritty details, things I would have never thought about. Gave me a great quote and 10% military discount. I told them I was going to get another company to give me a quote while we were waiting to close. He was really understanding and didn't push any stupid sales tactics on me. A week or so later I got an email from them asking if everything was going well with closing and if we needed anything to give them a call. Awesome customer service. Our closing was delayed but they stuck with us the whole way through. Ended up choosing Armor not only for their great price, but their customer first attitude. Guys came out to intall on time, worked extremely fast and left no trace that they had been there. Fence looks amazing. Couldn't have asked for a better all around experience. read more

Would defiantly recommend this company for all fencing, decking and general outdoor amenities. After calling multiple companies, I came across Armor Fence in a local magazine. After a brief informative phone call I was informed that I could get a free estimate the following day! I was soon greeted by a professional associate who spent a great deal of his time answering my never ending amount of question. Not only was professional, attentive and patient he offered suggestions to get the most bang out my buck. The following week I continued to get estimates from other companies (not all free) for the job, whose lack of customer service quickly turned me away from other companies. I scheduled with Armor Fence and within 6 hours the fence was installed and the crew was on there way. Was extremely impressed and satisfied. read more

Armor Fence was both friendly and helpful from start to finish. My neighbor has a 6' high fence and we didn't want to go that high, but Armor Fence was able to match the material and we went with a 4' that matched the design perfectly and they were done incredibly fast. In fact, I was out for part of the day and they had come and gone before I got home with the fence securely installed. I'm very pleased overall and think they did a great job and the price was reasonable. In fact, I accidentally ran into the fence with a Bobcat doing a fair amount of damage. They were able to replace that part of the fence at a reasonable cost and super fast. I have absolutely no complaints or concerns with the company. They were fast (bonus), friendly/helpful (bonus), and affordable (bonus). I would definitely recommend them as an installer. read more

Used this company to install a privacy fence in my backyard. They were great! We set a date for the install and the day before it snowed. I didn't expect them to show up the next day with a few inches of snow on the ground but they showed up anyway and installed the fence! They arrived about 9am and had finished and cleaned up everything by 12:30. The fence looks great! I am very happy with the work completed! I would def use this company again and I recommend them for use! read more

Called and made an appt. for someone to come out to give me a quote on a fence. I called Steve to confirm the appt. He didn't call me back. Called the main number and the receptionist said they don't keep the estimator's schedule so they don't know when the appt. was made. Strange. Waited at the house, no show. read more

The company did a great job from beginning to end. I contacted them for an estimate, and received a reply immediately. Dean came out and provided an estimate for the fence. He didn't try to push other things or add things to increase the cost. The fence installation took 2 days, and went smoothly. Dean was responsive to any questions I had and followed up after the installation to make sure I was happy with the fence. Overall, I was very happy with the communication and installation and would definitely recommend them. read more

Armor Fence is fantastic! We reached out to 3+ companies to get a quote on both a fence and a patio. No one else even came close to their quote. They also have extremely short lead times, compared to the rest. We did have one small issue with the fence, but Tim handled it no questions asked. I would recommend them to anyone in the area! read more

I had Armor fence put up a 6 foot wooden fence around my back property back in 2002/2003 to keep my husky from jumping the chain link fence. I will NEVER use them again. They crushed numerous plants (we will work around your plants and be very careful) including 2 roses, my gates still don't work right (I had them out about 4-5 times to fix the problem in the beginning and they still haven't work correctly), they left trash in my yard (I took pictures), I asked that they remove the chain link fence and use those holes for the 4x4 posts. My neighbors tree fell in a storm and broke a 4x4 post, I have spent 2 hours digging only to find that Armor fence cut off the metal fence posts, put the wooden 4x4 posts near the metal fence posts and there is 80 - 160 pounds of concrete now buried in the ground. I am thinking that I will need to dynamite this mess. Oh yes, I asked that they not put this fence up on a Friday as I worked (at the time) Friday, Saturday and Sunday night so I would be sleeping most of Friday. Of course, they showed up on Friday. I have been extremely dissatisfied since they have completed the work. I caution you regarding using Armor fence. read more
