First Class Fence & Rail, Inc.

10275 NW 53rd St., Sunrise, Florida, United States | Steel/Iron

Family Owned and Operated
 
We are a true family run business: husband and wife, along with our employed staff run the total operations of our fence and welding divisions. Alan and Rebecca Mathews, the owners, have lived in South Florida and specifically Broward County for the last 27 and 40 years respectively. We work and live in the community that we service so we have a vested interest in making sure our customers are happy.
 
Professionalism
 
From the moment that we step foot on your property for quotation purposes, through the final install, we represent a professional organization and we behave accordingly. We always arrive on time for appointments and if circumstances prevent promptness we will call you ahead of time to reschedule. You will never receive a carbon copy proposal in the field. We treat each proposal individually and create a detailed, professional computerized proposal package for each job. Every yard is different and accuracy is essential.
 
Reputation
 
Our reputation is pristine. We have a high volume of referral business from past customers. On occasion we have also been recommended by building officials to prospective customers. We also do a large amount of work for law enforcement and have even worked for Homeland Security.
 
Accuracy and Expertise
 
By law, the licensed agent for a fence contractor must oversee all installations. This rule is typically ignored within our industry. Our licensed agent will be on-site and actively participate in your install to make sure the job is done right. Also, we NEVER use a measuring wheel because they are inaccurate.
 
We always measure with a tape measure and attempt to get the most accurate assessment of the footage from the initial quote. We also have extensive knowledge about the building code requirements and how each city interprets the code so we can guide you to make the best choice for your project.
 
Product Quality
 
We are also one of the few fence contractors that design and fabricate custom ornamental steel and aluminum products such as: interior and exterior fence and railing, pedestrian and drive gates and marine/yacht industry products. We never cut corners on our materials and/or craftsmanship. Our focus is providing the highest quality products while surpassing our customers' expectations each and every time.
 
Building Permits
 
We ALWAYS pull permits for our work when it is legally necessary. Our professional integrity does not bend. Anyone who tells you that you do not need to pull a permit for a fence install, or asks you to pull your own, is not a licensed fence contractor, has lost his license, insurance or privileges to pull permits in your city or he knows his work will not pass inspections. All fence installations require a permit by law.
 
Subcontract Labor
 
Fence contracting companies typically utilize a pool of subcontracted installers. Most, if not all, of these individuals are unlicensed, uninsured, unsupervised, unskilled and/or undocumented laborers paid under the table illegally. Unfortunately, who you hire is not always who you get with many other contractors. We NEVER have and NEVER will use subcontract installers for any of our work.
 
Pricing
 
You will notice that price is listed last. The reason for this is simple. As illustrated, there are so many important factors in deciding which contractor to hire. Saving money on the front end can sometimes cost you on the back end. We run a professional, quality organization and our price reflects what is needed to keep our company legal and our standards high. If you have a question about our pricing please feel free to contact our offices.
 
Keep in mind, a competitor who runs his business using illegal and unlicensed subcontract labor will be cheaper than it is for us to run our business legally and all on the books. Our prices are usually mid range in comparison with other 'legally run' contractors.
 
Keep in mind; you get what you pay for in most instances. We also do not typically match low bids. We can not afford to lower our standards and provide the same level of customer service, product quality and expertise our customers have come to expect.
