Kent Fence Co. has been amazing. 2 years ago, I had my first quote with him, but was unable to pay for the job at the time. When I was ready to do an install, they had saved my info from 2 years ago, price was only about $1k more than the original quote (and with current wood prices, that was really good) and they were able to get it up 2 weeks later, just in the nick of time before winter! The work is pristine, his attention to detail is incredible. Thank you a million times, from me, my kids, and my dogs!!

I can't say enough good things about Kent Fencing. Aside from a quality and precise job that came in very competitively in price, aside the fact they operate in east Topeka bringing up a troubled neighborhood, aside from their quick handling of our job compared to others. All that aside, they went out of their way to help us by putting up a dog run to operate in the interim until supplies came in saving us a HUGE problem. Thank you!

Mr. Kent installed a vinyl and chain link fence for us when we first built our home. Liked the job the company did so well had them back to build our dog run for us. Great customer service along with professional installation and attention to detail. What's not to like !!

Professional, fast and experienced. They did a really nice job on our new wood fence and one of the guys even adjusted a gate on the other side of the yard just to make it close better. Excellent customer service and great work.
