About the Owner

You could say fencing runs in my blood. I grew up in the yard of my family’s fencing company, making gate hardware at five years old and running forklifts by ten. I spent six years as a welder in the gate shop, learning every detail of fence building — and eventually moved into management, handling everything from purchasing to scheduling.

When my grandfather decided to retire, I dreamed of taking over the family business — but life had other plans. So, I started my own.

I launched Chesapeake Fence in 2015 after a few informal years of doing what I’ve always known best. Since then, we’ve grown steadily, one quality job at a time — all backed by decades of hands-on experience and a real passion for the trade.

I didn’t choose fencing. Fencing chose me.

About Our Team

What makes our team different? We care about the result — and the people behind it. Whether it’s a backyard privacy fence or a full-property install, we treat it like it matters, because it does. Our installers are craftsmen, not just laborers, and it shows in the final product.

At Chesapeake Fence, you’re not getting a big-box crew. You’re getting a tight-knit team that takes the job — and your trust — seriously.

“The beginning of this process made me think it was going to be a headache because most places wouldn't even give me a call back or didn't even send somebody out at the scheduled time to do a quote. But Chesapeake Fence — from beginning to the end — made it so simple and did amazing work.”
