Evergreen Fences & Gates sends its partners out to measure with the crew

The partners behind the Orlando fence and gate company go to estimates themselves, then take the measurements alongside the installers who will build the job.

Before a fence goes up for Evergreen Fences & Gates, someone has to measure the property. Usually that someone is one of the partners, working next to the installers who will do the building.

“Usually we go with the installers to show them the work as well, take measurements together, things like that,” says Eli, who became a partner in the Orlando company in 2025.

The company dates to 2023, when it was started by Yosef, the partner who owns it with Eli. Eli describes Yosef as more of the actual field person. Between the two of them, the person a customer meets about a job is also out with the crew when the numbers get worked out.

Most of that work is residential, though the company takes commercial jobs too, and Eli points to white vinyl fences as a strength. Its own pages show wood, aluminum, iron and custom fences as well. Gates get equal billing in the name for a reason: the company’s Google listing describes it as specializing in all things gates, from repairs to new installs, and the website covers both automatic and manual gates.

The partners usually go to the estimate themselves, Eli says, which keeps the work personal from the first visit. After that, customers know where to find him. “I’m pretty available by phone. We’re quick to respond, quick to take care of any issues,” he says.

He is just as direct about what a job involves. Customers hear the price, the timeline and what they are getting before work starts. “We don’t over promise,” he says. Nobody at Evergreen tells a homeowner a fence will be done in a day.

One homeowner who hired the company for a new fence described the process in a review. The estimate was booked for the day after the first call, and Eli took the measurements himself and explained exactly what would happen next. When the crew finished, the yard was cleaned up and left spotless.

Those measurements do not get handed off and forgotten. When the installers arrive, the partner who walked the property is often there with them, going over the work. In Eli’s words, they are “usually all in the same team.”
