"Built Right the First Time"

Custom Built Fence Specialists

Amherst Superior Fence, or simply put "Amherst Fence" was started over 20 years ago by its owner Paul A. Wishcherath.

Amherst Fence prides itself in being "old fashioned" . Our employees are paid by the hour,. They are not sub-contractors or paid "incentive wages", which means the installers are paid a set rate for what they install whether it takes one hour or two days!

Our installers at Amherst Fence are loyal professionals and range in experience from 8 to 20 years. They all have been trained in house. Amherst Fence is the only fence company they have worked for. All work is performed the "tried and true" proven way each and every time to assure old fashioned quality.

Built Right The First Time

Our custom Iron Gates are made from mild carbon steel-welded together and have components of forged steel and cast iron. They are then sand blasted and powder coated.

All posts are set in wet concrete. The means Amherst Fence will take two days to install your fence. One day to set the posts and another day to put the fence up after the concrete has set up. (Other companies might throw a bag of quickcrete in the hole and hope nature adds moisture to it for concrete.) Amherst Fence will also pick up the excess dirt from the post holes and pile it conveniently on your property at no extra charge to you.

The red cedar & pressure treated fences are made right on the job, board by board, so if have a scallop fence all the panels will be equal, with no chopped ready made panel at the end of a line. We box in the corners on all wooded fences, so the rail ends are not exposed.

Amherst Fence can "Curve or Bend" a chain link fence to blend with the landscaping around your pool and/or patio to soften the look and enhance the landscaping. Since we do not charge for terminal post there is no additional charge for this.

We set all chain link posts in wet concrete and not the quicker method of driving.

Other companies may be able to install a fence in a day, but at Amherst Superior Fence we prefer to take our time and do it the old fashioned way.

Guaranteed Customer Satisfaction Since 1981

The Amherst Fence Guarantee is old fashioned too. Five Year Guarantee on all work and material regardless if something goes wrong…we will fix it. The wood posts are guaranteed 20 years against rot because we only use pressure treated and not red cedar or some other untreated post than can and will rot at ground level in 5 to 10 years. It is a fact that the chemicals in cement react with cedar to break down the wood. Many times you will see a fence falling over because of broken or rotten posts… and the fence still has many good years left
