Quick Overview

iHow this is made

This summary is generated from the verified data on this profile: services, service area, credentials, warranty terms and the company's Google review record. It is reviewed by an editor before publishing and refreshed whenever the underlying data changes. Nothing here is asserted that is not stated elsewhere on this page.

Editorial Standards

Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors has built fences in and around Winnipeg since 1946, working from a warehouse yard at 90 Lowson Crescent in the Tuxedo industrial area. The company makes its own chain link mesh in Winnipeg and installs chain link, wood, vinyl, ornamental and welded wire fences, pool fences, dog runs and specialty gates. It drives steel posts 36 to 42 inches into the clay, below the frost line, instead of setting them in concrete, and it books the Manitoba Hydro and BellMTS utility locates for you. Google shows 4.5 from 214 reviews, read November 10, 2026. The office is open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the company advertises 24/7 emergency service for fence and automated gate problems.

Editorial Review

Our Take on Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors

Wallace + Wallace brings 80 years of Winnipeg fencing, its own chain link production and a clear explanation of how it sets posts in clay. Its 4.5 rating is the lowest here, and some reviewers describe slow estimates and subcontracted crews, so get the schedule and warranty in writing.

    I dealt with Wallace and Wallace for the last 3 months – they sent out a person to do a estimate on sept 14 (he did it wrong-not what I wanted). I called several times and wrote out a hand written map of the fence that I need (I have a new foundation on the house, a new garage and sidewalk and have people walking through the yard and trying to get into the garage and going thru my garbage bins)They said that they were working on next month’s date, They asked me 5 different times for different drawings and I had to call and talk to them(they were looking at the wrong drawing from a wrong date). The price wasn’t changed as I removed 3 fence posts and shoveled mud to make it easier and I paid 50% on my credit card. The called me and left a message with 2 dated oct 20 for hydro and oct 22 for insulation, they said if this didn’t work to call them. I work on those days and would have to call in sick to be there. The message on the phone got deleted by mistake. I called 3 times and emailed 2 times to find out if I had to be there and could change the date. No call back – no email returned. I called to talk to a manager and talked to 6 or seven different people that were in charge. One lady said that there were no inspection notice from hydro pulled( the inspection was 1 week out). I left a message to call me back(I’m pissed at this point – wasting my time and no security on my garage). I talk to someone and they connect me to how ever was in charge and voice mail. I call back and ask for the owner no one of the 15 people that say they are the managers. Lexes says he isn’t there he went home, He will call me tomorrow. I tell them I have to work a 12 hour shift and will be busy and give me his cell number or home number. She starts to give me his number and I tell her never give the owner number; she gets mad a said she would cancel the work order. I say yes, I will not pay any fees with canceling the work or I will file a small claims court case (waste of my time –duress) and dispute with my credit card company and review the company. I asked her if she is a manager and her name(I tell her my phone records and she is mad and won’t say here name- she tells me she will cancel the work order and she said to talk to another person – wow. I talk to another person and she said she listened to the whole conversation. I said cancel the work – refund the money. She said if I want to change the date of the work it would be done next year.<br>I have to wait till next year to correct my security problem.<br>How does a company run like this? You need to do better.

    Very happy with my Privacy Plus fence installation. The two gentlemen that did the work were professional and friendly. They kept the job site clean and organized. They also worked over 11 hours the first day to ensure the side we use for our dog was completed. Very pleased with the final produce.

Company Background

About Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors

Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors is the old hand of Winnipeg fencing. The company says it has been building fences in and around the city since 1946, and today it runs a manufacturing, supply and installation operation from a warehouse at 90 Lowson Crescent in the Tuxedo industrial area. Its fencing division makes chain link mesh in Winnipeg and sells it to other installers across Manitoba, and the same yard rents temporary fencing and installs automated gates. A sister division, Wallace Doors, handles garage and overhead doors.

For homeowners, the residential menu covers chain link, wood, vinyl, ornamental and welded wire fences, pool fences, dog kennels and runs, specialty gates and privacy inserts. The FAQ explains why the company drives steel posts 36 to 42 inches into the ground with a hydraulic pounder rather than setting posts in concrete: Winnipeg clay holds water, and frost pushes concrete piles up over the years. Some yards need posts as deep as six feet. Steel posts can be clad in wood for a traditional look or upgraded to black powder coat, and wood posts are still available on request.

The installation page is unusually plain about the fine print. Wallace + Wallace books the Manitoba Hydro and BellMTS locates a couple of weeks before the job, asks you to mark private lines such as sprinklers, and warns that hand digging or hydrovac work near utilities adds cost. It takes a 50 percent deposit and charges the balance to your card when the job is finished, then sends a copy of its warranty. The company does not mark property lines, so the fence line is your responsibility.

Google shows 4.5 from 214 Google reviews, read November 10, 2026. Reviewers praise a Privacy Plus fence put in by two installers who stayed more than 11 hours to finish, crews who call before they arrive, and an installer named Colin. One reviewer says the crew that built their chain link fence was a subcontractor, and a 1 star review describes a wrong estimate and months of calls before anything moved.

Wallace + Wallace suits homeowners who want chain link, wood on steel posts or a gate from a company with a long record and its own supply. It suits less well anyone who needs fast turnaround on a small repair in peak season. Before booking, ask for the warranty terms in writing, whether your crew is in-house or subcontracted, and proof of WCB Manitoba coverage and liability insurance.

Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors FAQs

  • Is Wallace + Wallace licensed and insured for fence work in Winnipeg?

    Manitoba has no provincial licence for fence contractors, and the Wallace + Wallace site does not list insurance or WCB details. Ask for a WCB Manitoba clearance letter and a certificate of liability insurance, and ask whether your crew is in-house or a subcontractor. The City of Winnipeg does not require a building permit for a standard residential fence.

  • Does Wallace + Wallace offer emergency fence and gate repair in Winnipeg?

    Yes. The company advertises 24/7 emergency service at (204) 452-2700. The office at 90 Lowson Crescent is open Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and closed weekends and statutory holidays. It also offers fence repairs, post and panel fixes and preventive maintenance on automated gates.

  • How deep does Wallace + Wallace set fence posts in Winnipeg clay?

    In standard conditions the company drives steel posts 36 to 42 inches into the ground, below the frost line, without concrete. Some areas need posts up to six feet deep. It serves Winnipeg plus Brandon, Gimli, Kenora, Morden, Morris, Niverville, Portage la Prairie, Selkirk, Steinbach and Thunder Bay, and takes a 50 percent deposit before the start date.

  • Is Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors licensed and insured?

    We checked 0 of 1 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.

  • What areas does Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors serve?

    Winnipeg. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.

  • Does Wallace + Wallace Fences and Doors offer emergency service?

    Yes, the company lists emergency availability. Response time depends on demand, and after a storm every company in the market is stretched.

  • What warranty do they offer?

    The company sends a copy of its warranty after installation; terms are not published on the site.. There are usually two warranties on a job: the manufacturer covers materials, the contractor covers workmanship. Get both in writing and check whether the workmanship coverage transfers if you sell.

  • Can a business pay to improve its profile?
