About Gannon Rustic Fence

Family owned and operated at 34 Cross St. in New Canaan since 1981. Here is who does the work, what the shop builds with, and what customers say once the gate swings.

Since 1981

Over 40 years of fence work in New Canaan.

Gannon Rustic Fence has worked out of 34 Cross St. in New Canaan since 1981. Over 40 years in, the shop is still family owned and operated, and it still runs on the same line it has used for years: “Where old-world craftsmanship meets new age design and materials. Here at Gannon Rustic Fence, you think it and we'll build it.” That is the shop's own description of the work, not ours, and it holds up against the jobs in the gallery.

Customers who call the office deal with Thomas and Steve directly. Reviewers name them by name for showing up on time, quoting fairly, and customizing a run to the property instead of forcing a stock kit onto it. Same-day consultations are offered, and if a gate starts to sag or a rail comes loose, a text through the contact page or a call to the shop is usually enough. One customer described getting a fix within a couple of hours of reaching out.

The shop's stated specialties are clean, professional work, customer service, staying family owned, taking on jobs of any size, and finishing a run with paint where the work calls for it. That range shows up in what gets built: harbor handrails, pool enclosures, ornamental fences, deer fences, custom gates, lattice, commercial fences, back stops, aluminum fences, vinyl fences and chain link fences, covering both new installations and repairs.

Gannon Rustic Fence carries the Eastern Fence and Illusions product lines and is a member of the American Fence Association. The shop takes cash, check, MasterCard and Visa, and offers 5% off all services to military personnel and senior citizens.

Stepped-down privacy plus 3-board paddock

I cannot tell you how pleased we are with the job that Thomas and Steve did. Not only did they help us with the permitting process, their quote was fair, they were on time and on budget, and the end product (a mix of stepped-down privacy fencing and 3 board paddock-style fencing) is incredible. They customized the work to our requests and were a pleasure to work with. It looks better than we had even hoped and I cannot recommend Gannon fencing enough.

Old fence out, new run on a slight grade

Gannon Rustic Fence did such a great job on our fence. They removed our old fence and effectively placed the fence on our property that has a slight grade. The end product looks fantastic! Thank you Gannon Rustic Fence!
