Top Rail Fence
Top Rail Fence is one of the fastest growing property service franchise systems in North America. Top Rail Fence provides fence, gate, and rail solutions to residential and commercial customers. Top Rail Fence was founded in 2014 in Greenville, South Carolina by franchise owners operating in the restoration industry. The founders were looking for a scheduled-service business in a high-demand, highly fragmented category. By 2022, Top Rail Fence had expanded its corporate footprint to 21 locations serving four states. With regional and national demand accelerating and few national providers in the fencing category, Top Rail Fence was acquired by the HomeFront Brands Family of Companies to bring the opportunity to the franchise marketplace. Top Rail Fence is a HomeFront Brands company. The HomeFront Brands Family of Companies brings more than 150 years of combined franchise experience and over 800 locations across the United States and Canada. Top Rail Fence franchise owners receive affiliate benefits that compound rather than add: a proprietary domestic and international supply chain that delivers buying power on fence materials, national partnerships, a 24/7 AI-powered sales and scheduling center, streamlined quoting and measurement software, and a seven-figure annual investment by HomeFront Brands in learning, development, and entrepreneur training. These affiliation benefits are why Top Rail Fence is home to the largest individual fencing franchise owners in the country by annual revenue.
