Editorial policy
How our guides are written, sourced, dated, and corrected.
Who writes our guides
Service and area guides are written and maintained by Fences.co. We don't attribute them to a named fence contractor or other expert, because we don't have one on staff. When a credentialed reviewer checks a page, we'll name them on that page.
Where local facts come from
Local guidance (soil and slope notes, permit offices, utility locates, HOA rules) is based on public information from city and county offices, state 811 centers, and federal agencies. Pages link to the official sources they rely on, and rules are written as "check with" guidance rather than legal advice.
Dates
Each guide shows the date its content was last reviewed. That date changes only when someone actually reviews the copy, not when the site is rebuilt. Current review date for area and service guides: .
What we won't publish
- Reviews, ratings, or testimonials that didn't come from a real completed job.
- Counts of pros, homeowners, or jobs that we can't back up.
- Dollar estimates without a stated method and date.
- Claims of a local office, crew, or phone line that doesn't exist.
- A license badge for an operator we haven't verified.
Partner operators
Operators who pay to receive job requests are labeled "Partner" or "Sponsored" wherever they appear. Payment never changes what a guide says about permits, licensing, safety, or pricing factors.
