Minnesota’s Top Rated Local® Fencing Contractors Award Winner: Authority Fence & Deck

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Authority Fence & Deck is an award winner for fencing contractors in 2019.

Look no further than Authority Fence & Deck for all of your central Minnesota fencing, railing, and deck needs.

Authority Fence & Deck has received many overwhelmingly positive reviews across three different verified sites with an average rating of 4.66 stars, earning them an impressive Rating Score™ of 88.91 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking as one of the top ten fencing contractors in Minnesota!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“I had multiple offers on my chain link fence, they were very competitive in price. The reason I went with them is because of how caring they were on the phone. You could tell that they really cared about their work and the product that they offer. All the other companies seemed to not really care. I am so happy with the work that they did; it is of high quality and the workers were some of the nicest people. If I ever need another fence or deck at a different home in the future I will be calling them right away. Thanks Again!” – T.S.

It is because of excellent reviews like this that Authority Fence & Deck is now able to call themselves a Top Rated Local award winner!

Not Your Average Fencing Contractors

We were excited to learn all about how Authority Fence & Deck has been able to build such an impressive reputation, so we sat down with the co-owner, Scott Sypnieski. The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes Authority Fence & Deck stand apart from their local competitors. Scott told us that theirs is one of the few companies that has a showroom so clients can see exactly what they’ll be purchasing. Scott also shared that Authority Fence & Deck has many long-term employees, so you know you’re getting not only quality but also expertise.

Building Success Through Service

Authority Fence & Deck is a family business, and, together with his wife, Joanne, and their son, Jared, this family works hard towards their mission of doing the best work they can to the best of their abilities. Customer service is the highest priority to Scott and the rest of the Authority Fence & Deck family.

Scott says that their location itself is a large source of advertising for Authority Fence & Deck. With 500 feet of land along the highway, people can’t help but see Authority Fence & Deck. Even with their prime location, Scott says that word of mouth referrals bring them about half of their new clients. They are also very active in the community, serving on the Monticello Chamber of Commerce, singing in church choirs, and being the lead singer of a local Christian rock band.

Authority Fence & Deck also worked together with the Monticello community to install a new fence around the cemetery. Scott says that it is also important for him to serve those in hardship.

On top of all of this, Authority Fence & Deck is unique in the services they offer. Scott says:

“We are a super specialty builder, we can make whatever you want, and we are competitively priced. We are a premium priced company. There are cheaper fences, but we sell on quality. If you want a cheaper fence or deck, you have to go elsewhere.”

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Authority Fence & Deck has managed to. We asked if Scott could share any expert advice to these companies. Here’s what they had to say:

“Work hard and don’t cut corners. Don’t allow yourself to do poor-quality work or provide poor-quality services. A bad review will eat you alive. All you have to do is protect your work quality. If your quality folds your business will fold.”


Congratulations to Authority Fence & Deck for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Scott for taking the time to speak with us!
