Any fencing contractors here?
I'm looking to fence in my back yard and need a contractor in the K.C. area. Before I break out the Yellow Pages I thought I'd see if anyone on here knows someone who does this.

What sort of fence are you looking to put up?
It is pretty expensive to have a company do it and it is pretty easy to do yourself. I put mine up in 2 days and saved about 2 grand. |

Believe me, its not that hard, I needed it done fast as well and did it all myself (although I borrowed an auger). It saved me a crapload of money, and my yard is bigger than that. You can go to Lowes or Menards and use their automatic systems to figure out what you need and they can deliver it. I believe I put mine up for about 1200 dollars and most quotes I got from fencing companies were from 3000 to 5000 dollars. |

I ended up with half a pallet of concrete left! I went about 300 across and 125 deep and butted the fence up to the back of my house. |

If it were my own yard, I'd tackle chain link installation. But, it's not something I've done frequently, so I wouldn't be comfortable charging professional prices.
But, chainlink isn't hard. I think you can take the lowest bid without fear of horrible craftsmanship. It's very cool of you to check out here first. |

My foil is broken right now, but anytime you're up for some fencing once I get it fixed, let me know.
