Wellford, SC & the Upstate
Masters of Defence

Built strong to last long.
Wood, vinyl, chain-link, and custom gate installation for homes and properties across the Upstate. Owner-led, straight answers, and a fence line that actually holds.
What We Do
Fencing services done the right way
The same crew, the same standard, no matter the size of the job.

Wood Fencing
Cedar and pressure-treated privacy and picket fencing, built square and set deep so it holds its line through every season.

Vinyl Fencing
Low-maintenance vinyl privacy and picket panels that stay clean and straight for years with essentially zero upkeep.

Chain-Link Fencing
Residential and commercial chain-link, properly tensioned with correctly set posts and rails, not just stretched and hoped for.

Gates & Access
Walk gates and drive gates built to match your fence line, hung level and hinged to actually hold up under daily use.

Fence Repair
Storm damage, leaning posts, broken panels, sagging gates. We find what's actually failing and fix that, not just what's visible.

Wood Fence Staining
Cleaned, sealed, and stained to bring faded or newly-built wood back to a rich, protected finish that holds up outdoors.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Wellford, SC and serve Upstate South Carolina, plus North Carolina and Georgia. See the Where We Work page for the full list of towns, or call to confirm we cover your property.
What types of fencing do you install?
Wood, vinyl, and chain-link fencing, plus custom gates, fence repair, and wood fence staining. See the Services section above for details on each.
How much does a new fence cost?
Every job is priced based on your property, the fence type, and how much line you need, so there's no flat rate we can quote sight-unseen. Michael keeps pricing competitive, often below the $5,000+ a full fence job can run industry-wide. A free on-site estimate gets you a real number.
Do you repair existing fences, or only install new ones?
Both. From storm damage and leaning posts to broken panels and sagging gates, we find what's actually failing and fix that, not just what's visible.
Who actually does the work on my property?
Michael Berryman, Owner and CEO, personally leads every crew. He's the one who walks your property line, writes the estimate, and is still on-site when the last picket goes in.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Masters of Defence LLC is licensed and insured.
