Fence planner
Plan your fence, then send it to us
Put in the length of your fence line and the gates you want. You get a rough count of posts and panels and a message that is ready to send. We measure everything again on site, for free.
Tip: one long step is about 3 feet, and the survey from your closing papers shows the exact lot lines.

What our community says about us
These guys are the best! They installed my vinyl privacy fence in 4 days from the time I called them! Great job! My old fence was a piece of work. I would definitely recommend them and the customer service was very helpful!

While we faced some scheduling hurdles, Good Fences was always quick to respond with solutions. They were also easy to work with during design changes. Price was reasonable, and in many cases, the costs came in lower than other quotes I received.

Questions
Fence questions we hear every week
Something else? Call or text 219-258-6900.
How much does a fence estimate cost?
Nothing. We measure your yard, walk the fence line with you and give you a written price at no charge. Call or text 219-258-6900 to book a time.
How soon can you come out?
We can usually measure within a week of your call. Spring fills up first, so call early if you want the fence up before summer.
Which towns do you work in?
We are based in Chesterton and build across Northwest Indiana, including Portage, Valparaiso, Merrillville, Porter, Michigan City and Crown Point. See the full list of service areas.
Do you repair fences you did not build?
Yes. We replace broken posts and panels, rehang sagging gates and fix storm damage on any fence, whoever put it in.
Do you build fences for businesses?
Yes. We build security fencing, chain link for lots and storage yards, ornamental fence for storefronts and fencing for ball fields.
Do I need a permit for a new fence?
Many towns and most homeowner associations ask for a permit or an approval first. Tell us your town at the estimate and we will tell you what to ask for.
