"Very easy to work with. Listened to what I wanted and kept within budget. Very knowledgeable of the products Trex carries. I talked to several other companies and received bids for the same product. Found out that Decks Unlimited was the subcontractor for one of the big box companies. I have a familiarity with residential construction, and unlike other companies, they didn't try to BS me. Again, unlike others, did not try to up sell me. L Very pleased with their work. They worked well within my HOA constraints. Just had an issue with clean up after the work was done, but I honestly believe it was because of weather, which put them behind schedule on other jobs. Who would have thought we would have rain and snow in the same week that late in the spring? I would highly recommend them."

Defence Enterprises has been operating since 2001 in the Clarkston area. We are a family owned business, with over 40 years of family fence business history. We have grown line upon line each year because our focus has always been on Quality rather than Quantity, and we have learned how to be very attentive to the personal needs of our customers. We pride ourselves on high quality materials and installation and on customer satisfaction. This is reflective in the fact that most of our work comes from referrals. We install residential, commercial, industrial and municipal fencing, gates and railing throughout southeast Michigan. Our employees have a combined 40 years of installation experience. We have the background to do any fencing project that you need done, and do it right, at a reasonable price. Our goal is to be large enough to handle any fencing, gate or railing need that you might have, but small enough to pay attention to every detail. Our opinion is that every customer and every job is unique, and therefore requires and deserves special attention. As a customer of Defence Enterprises, you will never feel like you are just another widget on the assembly line. We strive to make you feel like you are the only customer we are servicing. There is no such thing as a job too big or too small for us. We’ve completed jobs as small as digging one hole for a flagpole, to projects as large as thousands of feet of high security fencing. Some of the companies we have serviced commercially and industrially include (Consumers Energy, Comerica Bank, Pine Knob, Chrysler, Orchard Lake St. Mary’s, Pinnacle Foods, and more). In addition, a number of municipalities have contracted with us for their fencing needs (Milford, Independence Township, White Lake Township, Woodhaven and more).
"Very happy with the work done, as well as the communication along the way (from quote - based on pictures I provided - to the install). Quote was quite a bit higher than I expected, but I learned from neighbors that chain link fence costs for small jobs are quite high (based on their experience with quotes for small chain link fence jobs). Very professional, high quality work. They were able to fit me in pretty quickly (just a couple weeks compared to 6-12 weeks with other companies). Highly recommend."

"Terrible service. Ordered fence in November 2016. Job was finally done in August 2017. Didn't cancel because of cancellation fee. Wouldn't show up when he promised. Avoided phone calls until it was time to pay him. Fencing sat on our back patio all summer until finally finished in August. We only had one side of our yard done. And the whole reason we finished fencing our yard is because we got a dog. There is such a big gap by the gate that our dog can get out anyway. Why bother calling them to fix it because I know Giles won't do anything about it anyway. Also, provided the same type of service to a friend. Unfortunately, we hired him around the same time, so neither of us knew how terrible he would be to work with."

"The build went great, excellent communication from everyone. Job was done earlier than expected even with them a man short for a few days. Angela and Gary outlined everything we should expect, worked around scheduling weirdness due to having a new born coming and delivered a great product. Great company, I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who is planning on doing anything with an outdoor space. Gary's design was spot on, and turned out better than we even imagined."

Installing a fence for a standard residential project takes two to four days. This timeline includes obtaining permits, preparing terrain, and coordinating labor and materials. A 150‑linear foot installation focuses on proper alignment and secure post placement. Factors such as your fence height, ground slope, and material type can add time to ensure a safe and durable structure.
Wood panels, steel, aluminum, and vinyl fences are some of the easiest to install, thanks to their pre-made sections and simple assembly. The process is fairly straightforward, with clear instructions and minimal customization, especially on flat, prepared ground. Choosing one of these options can make setting up a fence quick and hassle-free.
A fence’s lifespan depends on its material. Vinyl fences typically last 20 to 30 years, while aluminum can endure up to 50 years. Wood fences last about five to 10 years with proper care, and wrought iron can remain strong for generations with regular upkeep. Chain-link and barbed wire fences tend to corrode faster, reducing their durability. No matter the material, routing maintenance helps extend a fence’s lifespan.
You’re not legally required to notify your neighbors before building a fence, but it’s a good idea to do so. Clear communication helps maintain good relationships and can help prevent disputes down the line. To avoid any issues, verify your property boundaries with an official survey and ensure the fence stays within your property lines.
The ideal fence height depends on its purpose. Standard privacy fences are six to eight feet tall to block views and add security, while decorative front yard fences are around three feet. Livestock fences range from three to six feet, depending on the animals they enclose. Always check local building codes to ensure compliance.
