What Washington & Frederick County Homeowners Say
I'm extremely happy with Darling Builders, they did an amazing job installing my fence. Austin helped me through the whole process from design to installation. He communicated clearly, provided helpful recommendations, and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. His team was professional, efficient, and left everything clean. I highly recommend Darling Builders to anyone looking for quality fence installation!
Highly recommend Darling Builders. They do excellent work at a fair price and maintain open communication throughout the process. They recently completed a fence installation and a repair project on our deck, and both projects turned out great. I will definitely be using Darling Builders for any future projects.
Austin Darling (Darling Builders) did an awesome job clearing our property line through the heavily wooded area. He was on time, professional, and kept the cost reasonable. He returned later to install our fence, which turned out great! We will definitely use Darling Builders for any future projects.
Austin evaluated a deck construction done by an incompetent contractor and made every correction to bring the deck up to code. He then built a beautiful new set of stairs at a reasonable price. We can't recommend Darling Builders highly enough!
Austin did a great job on our house project! He was extremely communicative and got everything done ahead of schedule. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable contractor.
Advice from the owner
Do you need a permit before building a fence or deck?
Requirements vary by project and location. Here is how permits, HOA approval, property plats, and Maryland 811 fit into a Darling Builders project.

Work we are proud to put our name on.
Darling Builders is not a franchise. We live and work here in Maryland, and every project is treated like we are building it for our own home.
That means proper post depth, concrete where it belongs, dependable hardware, careful layout, and a jobsite left clean when the work is done.
