• Accreditation: Better Business Bureau A+ Accredited.
• Prequalification network: Contractors Blue Book ProView Verified.

• Direct contact: Shawn or Shelby Fick at 502-468-1209.

If your prequalification runs through a portal or a questionnaire of your own, send the invitation to 502-468-1209 or through our contact page and we will complete it.

• Coverage carried: commercial general liability and Workers’ Compensation.
• Certificates: project-specific COIs naming the requesting party as additional insured, with waiver-of-subrogation endorsements when the subcontract requires them. Limits and carrier details appear on the certificate itself.
• COI turnaround: typically one business day from a written request.

• Legal entity: S&S Fencing & Property Maintenance LLC, headquartered in Cox’s Creek, Kentucky.
• Ownership: family-owned and woman-owned.
• Licensing and registration details: provided in writing during prequalification for the specific jurisdiction your project sits in.
• Tax documentation: W-9 on file and available on request.

• Self-perform posture: layout, post driving, panel and fabric installation, gate sets and punch list are performed by S&S crews. Specialty work outside the fence scope — electrical terminations for gate operators, for example — is coordinated with the responsible trade.
• Post installation: posts are driven into the ground rather than hand-set, which produces a tighter, longer-lasting line. See post augering and driven-post installation.
• Site rules: badging, escorted access, hot-work permits and live-facility phasing are adopted from the GC’s plan rather than substituted with our own. See how that plays out on an operating plant in our industrial fencing scope.
• Wage and reporting requirements: confirmed in writing against the specific subcontract before bid, so there is no ambiguity at award.
• Representative project: Four Roses Distillery in Cox's Creek, Kentucky — 16,000 linear feet of 8 ft commercial chain link perimeter, a 35 ft commercial chain link cantilever entrance gate and a 28 ft custom fabricated metal cantilever security gate (both on LiftMaster operators), and 3,000 linear feet of commercial-grade 5 ft black aluminum ornamental fence.
