For contractors, builders & HOAsIn-house crews, full submittal packages, and one project contact who knows every one of your sites.
Whether it is a single dumpster corral or forty lots of boundary fence phased across two years, the same crews and the same project contact see it through.
Powder-coated aluminum or steel between masonry piers. The standard treatment for community entrances, clubhouses and amenity areas.
Commercial-grade sections in 4–8 ft heights, with self-closing self-latching gate hardware for code compliance.
Chain link, welded wire and heavy steel perimeter systems for utility yards, storage, construction sites and facilities.
Dumpster corrals, HVAC and generator screening, and utility enclosures built to jurisdiction and landlord requirements.
Long-run boundary fencing for new development, phased to your construction schedule across multiple lots.
Automated swing and slide operators, keypads, card readers, intercom and vehicle detection for controlled entry.
Commercial fencing fails on coordination far more often than on craft. Here is how we are set up to hold a date.
| Client type | Typical scope | What matters most | How we handle it |
|---|---|---|---|
| General contractors | Site perimeter, screening, amenity fencing | Holding the schedule | Dedicated project contact, phased mobilization, weekly look-ahead |
| New home builders | Per-lot fencing across a development | Per-unit pricing and speed | Volume pricing, lot-by-lot release, no re-quote per lot |
| HOAs & communities | Pools, clubhouses, boundary, entrances | Code compliance and board approval | Code-compliant drawings, board presentation support, phased budgets |
| Property managers | Repairs, replacement, screening | Response time | Standing pricing, priority scheduling, single invoice per property |
| Municipal & institutional | Parks, schools, utility, facilities | Documentation and compliance | Full licensing, insurance certs, prevailing wage capable, submittals |
Documented at every step, so your project manager is never guessing where the fence package stands.
Plan review and takeoff from your drawings, returned as a line-item bid with alternates priced separately.
Product data, shop drawings, finish samples, insurance certificates and licensing for your submittal package.
Permits pulled, utility marking scheduled, and mobilization coordinated against your construction sequence.
Gates and specials fabricated in our shop; our own crews install. Progress reported weekly.
Joint walk, punch list cleared, O&M and warranty documentation delivered with final invoice.
Yes. Expert Fence holds a Virginia Class A contractor licence and is licensed, bonded and insured in Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia, including Maryland Home Improvement Commission registration and DC and local jurisdiction licensing. General liability and workers' compensation certificates are issued on request, and we can name additional insureds for your project.
That is the core of our commercial work. Crews are in-house rather than subcontracted, which means we control the calendar instead of chasing someone else's. You get one project contact who knows every site, phased mobilization tied to your sequence, and a weekly look-ahead so you know when we land.
Yes — product data, shop drawings for gates and specials, finish samples, and all licensing and insurance documentation, formatted for your submittal package. For pool and barrier work we provide the code-compliance documentation your inspector will ask for.
Approved commercial accounts can be set up on net terms with progress billing against schedule of values. New accounts typically start with a deposit and progress payments; we will discuss terms during the bid rather than surprising you at contract.
Yes. Our Alexandria yard sells contractor-grade material at trade pricing, including posts, panels, hardware and custom fabrication, with delivery across the DMV. If you are a fencing contractor who needs material rather than labour, that is a separate and welcome conversation.
Ornamental steel and aluminum fences almost never fail across the whole panel. They fail in the last six inches — where the post meets the concrete, where water sits, where salt collects. Most contractors quote a full replacement because it is easier to sell. We cut out the failure, splice in new material, refinish it, and hand you back a fence that looks new for a fraction of the cost.
We cut back to sound metal, sleeve or splice a new base section, weld it out, and re-seat it in fresh concrete with proper drainage so it does not rot again from the inside.
Individual pickets, rails and channel sections replaced and colour-matched. Nobody can tell which section was repaired once the finish is on.
Cracked welds, sheared brackets, bent frames and impact damage repaired on site or pulled to the shop, depending on what the section needs.
Loose handrails, failed anchors and railings that no longer meet baluster spacing or load requirements — corrected and documented for your inspector.
Dragging gates, failed hinges, worn operators and out-of-square frames. Usually a half-day fix that owners have been quoting as a full gate replacement.
Blast, prime and powder or field-coat repaired sections, plus preventive treatment on the runs that have started to go but have not failed yet.
Insurance-ready documentation, photographs and a line-item scope so a claim moves without a second site visit.
For property managers and HOAs with long runs: we walk the whole perimeter and mark what needs repair now, what can wait a season, and what genuinely needs replacing.
We will tell you which one you are. Our survey says plainly what should be repaired and what should be replaced — including when replacing is the honest answer. That is why property managers keep our number.
Send the scope and we will return a line-item bid. Plans welcome — reply to the confirmation email with drawings attached.
Commercial requests are reviewed by our estimating team and returned as a line-item bid, with alternates priced separately so you can value-engineer without a re-quote.
