TESTIMONIALS
I can’t say enough about the quality and professionalism shown by the people at Florida Fence. They have done multiple installations for myself and family members and all have been well done. In addition to running a top-notch company, the Dermody family gives back regularly to our community as well as those who serve in the armed forces. They are a true asset to our community.
Florida Fence did what they said they would do when they said they would do it and met all appointments on time. A refreshing change for those of us who were in the eye of Hurricane Michael. A pleasure to do business with.

ABOUT PICKET
At Florida Fence, you are always greeted with a smile and a friendly face. But if you are lucky, you might also run into our resident mascot and “Chief Canine Officer”, Picket.
Picket found us just after Thanksgiving 2014, weighing in a 2.2 pounds, breed unknown. He is responsible for countless smiles and laughter throughout the office, as well as the occasional accident on the showroom floor.
He is available for house calls to lend his expert advice on all things puppy and is a favorite of our customers – who ask for him by name. He has grown quite a bit since these photos!
Picket has become our spokesdog, with his own social media accounts and following. He is involved in all things Florida Fence and is representative of what we are all about – family & fences.
If you need a Sarasota or Manatee County fence installed, call us for a free consultation. And ask for Picket – he loves meeting our customers!
