Expert Safety Barrier For in Jacksonville, FL

A safety barrier fence does one job above all others: it stops access to a hazard before an accident happens. In Jacksonville, that hazard is often a backyard pool. Florida law requires a barrier of at least 48 inches tall around residential pools, with self-closing, self-latching gates and no gaps larger than 4 inches. H&W Fence Co has been part of this community since 1981, and our family team knows what Jacksonville yards face year-round. Summer heat warps materials. Hurricane season tests every post and gate latch. We install safety barriers built to hold up through all of it. We serve homeowners across Jacksonville, Orange Park, Mandarin, Oakleaf, Murray Hill, Whitehouse, Oceanway, and Biltmore. Whether you have a pool, a drop-off at the edge of your yard, or a hazard you need to contain, we can put a barrier in place that fits your property and meets Florida code. Call us to talk through your situation.

I read the review and noticed H&W did not get very good ratings but I decided to give them a try based on the few positive reviews I did read. I have to tell you that I am so happy I did. From the very beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, prompt, and answered all my questions. I was given a more than fair quote and even came down a little more after I received another quote from another fencing company. The sales person Darrel was very polite, extremely helpful especially after I provided him with my Land survey. He saved me from future headaches regarding property lines. He always answered my calls and when he was not available, he would call back within the hour. His office administrator, Michelle, was also very professional, helpful, quick to respond to my emails and very pleasant. Even the field workers were a joy. They were very polite and if something was wrong or questionable, they would bring it to my attention before moving forward with the project. I put in a ranch style vinyl fence and it looks fantastic. The work was done in a timely manner, they cleaned up after themselves when they were finished. They are a great team. I would highly recommend this company.
