The Shoemaker standard
Why Shoemaker
A fence is only
as good as its posts.
Anyone can hang panels. We build the part you never see — deep footings, plumb posts, tight lines — because that is what decides whether your fence looks this good in fifteen years.
- Hand-set posts, concrete footings
- Every post is dug below frost line and set in concrete. No pounded posts, no leaning fences in year three.
- One crew, start to finish
- The same foreman who walks your property builds your fence. Nothing gets handed off to a subcontractor.
- Fair price, written flat
- Line-item estimates with materials, gates and grading spelled out. The number we quote is the number you pay.
- We handle the paperwork
- Locates, HOA submittals and city permits are managed by us before a single hole gets dug.
How it works
From walk-through to walk-away
Four steps, no surprises. Most projects go from first call to finished fence in two to three weeks.
- 01
Walk the property
We meet you on site, confirm the line, talk through materials, gates and grade changes.
- 02
Flat, written estimate
A clear line-item quote within 24 hours — materials, labor, gates and permits included.
- 03
Locates & approvals
We call in utility locates and handle HOA or city submittals so your build stays on schedule.
- 04
Build & walk-through
Crews set posts, hang panels, clean the site, then walk the finished fence with you before we leave.

Neighbors talking
Reviewed by the people who live behind our fences
“Shoemaker rebuilt 340 feet of privacy fence for us and it is dead straight. The crew showed up when they said they would and cleaned up better than they found it.”
Dana R.
Myers Park, Charlotte
“Got three quotes. Theirs was the clearest and the only one that explained why the posts were being set the way they were. Worth every dollar.”
Marcus H.
Ballantyne, Charlotte
“They fenced two of our commercial properties on a tight schedule and coordinated everything with our property manager. Easy to work with.”
