Had a great experience with the Thrive team-from setting it up with Micah with an estimate, the walkthrough with Bonnie and the installers, Yohanen, Victor and Noah. A walkthrough was done prior to starting the installation with an explanation as to what would add any extra fees i. e. a hand dig, after a layout…

Micah and the Thrive Fencing team did an excellent job with our chain link fence install in Ames, Iowa. I especially enjoyed the quoting and planning process as it was really easy to do online with their web-based estimating tool. I made several drawings of different layouts and was able to talk through each of them…

Micah and his team did a great job on our fence! Many companies refused to install during winter months. Micah was able and willing to come out in the cold to get us taken care of so we could have a fence the day we moved in. It was a simple process and the experience was exceptional.

We used Thrive Fencing back in the beginning of May, 2023. I can honestly say this has been some of the most professional and diligent service that we received at a fair price for 145' total of fencing and 3 total gates. Micah was in contact with us frequently to ensure the details of what we wanted in our fence and…

We had a fantastic experience with Micah and the Thrive fencing crew! Very personable and VERY fast. Thrive had someone out within 24 hours of when we called, and quickly sent us back a detailed estimate. Before we knew it they had taken care of the paperwork and permits, and the fence was done.

We had been battling with another company to get our fence in for about four months with no luck. Our neighbor mentioned that they went through Thrive Fencing to install theirs so I wanted to look it up. I put an estimate request in on Christmas Eve not thinking I would hear anything until after the holidays. Micah…

We moved into a new house and needed a chain link fence installed as soon as possible to keep our dogs safe.
